A new feature-length documentary, The Pirate Bay Away From Keyboard, is out, focusing on the rise to popularity and subsequent legal issues of The Pirate Bay, arguably the world's biggest public torrent site, and a haven for music, film and video game piracy. Two of the three TPB founders are currently in Laos, escaping an international arrest warrant.

Of course, the documentary itself is freely available, and is a highly recommended watch.

"How Clubbing Changed The World"


Idris Elba, probably more known as Stringer Bell from HBO's 'The Wire' hosted this documentary that was released on UK's Channel 4 that goes through each significant moment in clubbing history that gives you a pretty well-rounded picture of how we came about to dancing to repetitive electronic sounds in the clubs today. If you try and ignore how corny Idris Elba has become since he left the streets of Baltimore, it's actually pretty good. Whilst all moments captured here can be seen as vital in defining clubbing today, it was more focused around the US and the UK ignoring some instrumental moments from other European cities. Enjoy.
