Ali's Story

These records changed Ali Coleman’s life. This is Ali’s Story.

16 min · Documentary, Music, History

For DJs, life revolves around records. Around sounds. Every life is a story, every DJ is a narrator. Every stack of records is an endless collection of stories, myths, and memories. Can we know someone’s life through their records? For some, we can even know their impact.
