Julian Casablancas

Set against the backdrop of 9/11, this documentary tells the story of how a new generation kickstarted a musical rebirth for New York City that reverberated around the world.

First DVD release from this refreshingly basic UK music programme puts the music in the foreground with an impressive role call of acts. With sparse production and no filler (no host, no audience, just artist centre stage), From The Basement's eclectic line-up reads like a contemporary alternative who's who; The White Stripes, Sonic Youth, Radiohead, Thom Yorke, Albert Hammond Jr., The Shins, Beck, Damien Rice, José González, Super Furry Animals, Eels, and more.

The Strokes played an intimate gig in front of just 800 people at the London University uLU on November 29th, 2005.

The Strokes headlined United Kingdom's Carling Weekend festivals in 2002, and their misadventures were largely chronicled by this short documentary 'In Transit', which was released to members of the now-defunct 'Alone, Together' fan club back in 2004.

The seminal live performance by The Strokes, performing on a brightly lit stage before an intimate audience.
