Something very interesting from 2015...

Rebirth of a Nation, by DJ Spooky (Paul D. Miller), has been called a remix of D.W. Griffith's notorious and explicitly (if not avowedly) racist 1915 film The Birth of a Nation, applying the techniques of the electronic DJ to film instead of music. But it was also a musical score, and one of an unprecedented kind. You get both viewpoints on the work here: the album release includes two discs, one containing a complete version of DJ Spooky's remixed film, with the soundtrack recut and resynchronized to the film. Those who have seen Rebirth of a Nation in one of its many live realizations may wish to have this release for the sake of completeness.
