What We Started
Bert Marcus and Cyrus Saidi present an informed and absorbing exploration of the history of EDM, boosted by an energetic soundtrack and anchored by the personal stories of legendary DJ Carl Cox and superstar newcomer Martin Garrix. Insights from numerous other DJs and musical talents like Moby, David Guetta, Paul Oakenfold and Usher help tell the often oppositional tales of old school vs. new school and mainstream vs. underground.

Such a frustrating disappointment
Sorry, this movie sucks
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
While skeptical at first, i'm now officially telling all my friends (EDM lovers and others) about What We Started ! I love this film because it tells such a beautiful story and is so informative to all who watch it. Whether your a modern EDM fan, an OG fan, or not a fan at all, this film does a great job of paralleling and contrasting the old with the new, with an exceptional cast.
I'm a fan of the genre and have been for over 5 years. When watching this film, I learned a lot from the history pertaining to the early days of the genre, how the DJ's would perform in different settings, etc. I especially liked hearing the insight from the current artists topping the charts in this genre and from different generations. Overall, if you're not a EDN fan, you will be intrigued from this film, learn some history of this genre and have a better idea of why the fans of this genre are really passionate.
I bought this film on Steam last month. Never thought it would be this entertaining and informative. Can't wait to show it to my cousins who are into dance music more than me.SPOILERThe movie has exclusive footage of Martin Garrix & Ed Sheeran working in the studio on their track, 'Rewind Repeat It' which never saw the light of day.
I've been a successful DJ in the scene for Over a decade and have seen most of the major Dance music Films made trying to cover the truth...this film Hands down is the best movie ever made about Dance music! Rather you are a dance music lover or completely unfamiliar with the scene "What We Started" will give you a very accurate look Into the world of Dance while entertaining you From start to finish. Highly recommend this!
