Breath Control: The History of the Human Beat Box
Hard to find info on this movie. I don’t know why. I don’t think it has even been released on DVD yet and it came out in 2002.
Done in a similar style as the documentary Scratch, Breath Control delves into the hyper-percussive history and world of beat boxing.
Directed by Joey Garfield

Personal Fact: This was a first date flick that I took my girlfriend to. It was in 2002 and was showing at the Experience Music Project in Seattle. Haven’t seen it play anywhere else since then. Hope they bring it to DVD soon.
