Vinyl culture documentary, sponsored by Seven Rivers Capital “Vinyl Has Nothing to Do with It” is available in the Freedom Media online cinema in the exclusive documentary section.
The film seeks answers through the stories of six people for whom music has become an important part of their lives. The action takes place in Almaty, a city where vinyl culture continues to thrive and unite a wide variety of people. Collectors, musicians, DJs, and music lovers share memories, discoveries, and perspectives on music. Through their stories, viewers are introduced to the world of vinyl: they learn how records are made, how analog sound differs from digital, and why listening to music becomes a true ritual for many. But the film is not so much about vinyl as it is about people and their relationship with music. It is about memories, self-discovery, favorite albums, chance encounters, and a culture that continues to exist despite the fast pace of the digital age. “Vinyl Has Nothing to Do With It” is a story about how music unites people, and how the city becomes a space where new connections, ideas, and meanings are born.
