Win tickets to see Björk, Jimi Hendrix & Northern Soul music films in the IFI

1. I’d love to see Bjork – Biophila. I near caught it in Sopot Poland a month ago but had to leave before I’d a chance to see it 🙁 Truly an amazing artist. Me plz!
   And for a recommendation, i just saw Inside Llewyn Davis awhile ago. The music blew me away, this was the ending song, powerful – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3b51b-MJ7o

2. any of the above three id be happy with ,so recommendations are documentary call brandy and coke- about rise n fall of UK garage , channel 4’s pump up the volume history of dance music and the blues produced by martin scorsese and have 7 parts each directed by different people to show there view on how blues came about

3. I’d love to see the Hendrix film most of all, but either of the others too. I loved ‘Searching for Sugarman’, Rodriguez’ music blew me away when I first heard it.

4. I’ll go see all three of those movies. My recommendation for a music film would be Dig! Its a docmentary about The Brian Jonestown Massacre and The Dandy Warhol’s.

5. I’d love to see Björk Biophilia. For recommendation my favorite Shine with amazing Geoffrey Rush as David Helfgott https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTt4Ar6pzO4

6. I would love to see Jimi : All is by my side i’m a massive Hendrix fan and have eagerly been waiting its release in Ireland.. As regards to music films (i know its an obvious one) 24 hour party people is one of my favourite and music movies there is out there. Definitely a Classic!

7. Any or all three – can’t be slints – breadcrumbs trial

8. I’d love to win tickets to jimi all is by my side but id be happy with any of them! http://www.redbull.com/en/music/stories/1331677478217/uk-grime-collective-and-red-bull-culture-clash-stars-boy-better-know-feature-in-new-film-jamaica-better-know I recently watched this a film/doc redbull made about english grime group Boy Better Know and their travels to jamaica to make their entry to this years redbull culture clash contest after being last years winners.

9. I’d love to see Biophilia! I recommend ‘The Punk Singer’, a documentary about Kathleen Hanna of Bikini Kill/Le Tigre, her life and the Riot Grrrl movement. Great watch!

10. Ahhhh I would love any of these so so so much but I guess in particular Biophilia!

    My recommendation actually comes in the form of the BBC documentary on Bjork-from her time in the Sugarcubes all the way up to Vespertine. It’s amazing, brings shivers to your spine.
    My second recommendation would be William Onyeabor-Fantastic Man.

11. I’d be happy with any but my pref would go: 1st Northern Soul, 2nd Jimi, 3rd Bjork – Biophilia

    You should check out Efterklang’s film. The first few minutes are all cinematic but it’ll get going!

12. Sorry, this is the one I meant to link. Supposedly something actually happens in this one! 😛 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uiKK7ehFYtA#t=144

13. Any of the films for me. All interesting.

14. All by my side please

15. I was an extra in All By My Side! 🙂
    But Would LOVE to see Biophilia too!!
    I am a music student and need to absorb EVERYTHING!!

    PRESS PAUSE PLAY is a great stimulating watch on the democratisation on art and especially music! 🙂

16. All three look super, All is by my side and Biophilia live will be amazing….

    And one of the best watches for the love of music…

17. I would like to see Bjork’s Biophila Live, please. My recommendation is a documentary called Dub Echoes, it’s deadly!

18. Wild Combination: A Portrait of Arthur Russell, one of my favourite artists by a mile. I’d love to see Bjork- Biophila.

19. Ooh northern soul for me please!! Get the talc out! Also muscle shoals all the way… Cracking documentary

20. I’d like to see the Bjork movie please. My recommendation is the wonderful ‘SHUT UP AND PLAY THE HITS’ by LCD Soundsystem. Live gig/documentary.

21. I can’t decide between Bjork or Northern Soul….Good Vibrations is a must see!

22. I’d like to see Northern Soul film. I’ve been following the making of this online and I’m really looking forward to seeing it. I’d recommend It’s All Gone Pete Tong. I thought that was a great film. Good look inside the world of DJing in a superclub and creating dance music and the record industry surrounding it, and the terrifying experience of noise induced hearing loss to someone who loves music. Paul Kaye’s acting is excellent.

23. I’d love to see both the Bjork and Jimi Hendricks films.
    I recommend Control which is about Joy Division and The Boat that Rocked which has a fun soundtrack.

24. I’d love to see Bjork but any one of them would be amazing! I recommend Wild Style as my music film! 😀

25. I would love to see All is By My Side and the music film I recommend is Searching for Sugar Man

26. Would love to see Bjork. Anvil is a great film , a real life Spinal Tap

27. Bjork: Biophilia Live. DiG!

28. I’d love to see the Northern Soul doc as Mrs Jasper is a Northern Soul fanatic and this would make up for my inability to incorporate handstands into my dance moves. The best doc i’ve seen is Dig! about Brian Jonestown Massacre. The most recent one i watched was A Band Called Death which is like a more low key Searching for Sugarman with better music! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WzxnnQHrZBQ

29. I’d love to see the Jimi Hendrix biopic Finally, Jimi: All Is By My Side, by John Ridley. Really big fan of Hendrix, I think that Andre 3000 was a fantastic choice for the character aswell, not just for the obvious looks similarity but he has a charismatic quality that Jimi also had. My recommendation for a bio pic – Nowhere Boy – John Lennons bio pic before he made it big with the Beatles. I was always more inclined to go for Paul in the big Lennon Vs. McCartney debate but after seeing this movie, it changed my whole perception of John Lennon. Netflix are also showing a really great Documentary at the moment called “Good ol’ Freda” about the secretary that used to run the beatles fanclub. Well worth a watch.

    1. and this of course, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1RVZ15JeBSM

30. I’d kill to see Bjork’s Biophilia, caught her at EP last year and haven’t managed to pick my jaw up off the floor since! I recommend Good Vibrations, the incredible story behind Northern Ireland’s punk scene.

31. Would love to see the Jimi Hendrix film as I was an extra and I’m in love with Jimi! Frank enough? Bjork would be immense also. You just can’t beat the Icelandic Folk!!

32. I’d love to see the Bjork movie. Definitely check out the Chet Baker documentary Let’s Get Lost, by photographer Bruce Weber. It’s a beautifully shot lament on a life lived hard and an immense talent overshadowed by addiction.

33. Would love to see Northern Soul! Best music movie that I’ve seen recently was Mistaken for Strangers, very very pleasantly surprised by how good the movie was!

34. Would love to see Northern Soul! Best music movie that I’ve seen recently was Mistaken for Strangers, very very pleasantly surprised by how good the movie was!

35. It would be very good!

36. Bjork would be incredible, that album is amazing.
    First recommendation is Irish film Once [ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0907657/ ] not quite what you were looking for but it’s still a beautiful music film. Second is Pink Floyd The Wall, standard.

37. I would be amazing to see Biophilia – I missed Electric Picnic when she played that show and I’ve never quite recovered! I have to recommend “Stop Making Sense” as my music movie, I could watch it a thousand times and never get tired of it – it’s an amazing show and a workout video all in one!

38. I would love to watch Biophilia the film. I saw Bjork performing at EP last year and she blew me away. I’d recommend watching The Great Hip Hop Hoax, about two Scottish rappers who fooled the British music industry.

39. I would like to see Biophilia and Jimi please! Beware of Mr.Baker is insane. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bz4C3djygWo

40. id love to see Biophilia sound 🙂

41. I’d love Northern Soul. ‘Spinal Tap’ for my recommendation….just watched this old faithful again recently! Thanks

42. I’d love to win tickets to se Biophilia to give to my sister who is a massive Bjork fan!
    As for a recommendation, I would mention a guilty pleasure, Guardians of the Galaxy, for its gem of a soundtrack!

43. Id like to see Hendrix.. His life was awesome! Also Bjorks life is very interesting so I would like to win tickets to that! My recomendation is…… The Devil And Daniel Johnston

44. Hendrix would be awesome but the others would be too. The IFI is a great venue for the more intimate showings.

    Highly recommend sound city, the music documentary that covers the history of Sound City Studios in LA…. From nirvana, RHCP, fleetwood Mac have all recorded there! Really interesting movie with some great songs.

45. Bjork-biophilia or northern lights…or jimi.. (but mostly bjork). music recommendation of course is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kV9cobZP4JA or one of the beatles films 🙂

46. I’d love love love to see the Jimi Hendrix bio, hugeee fan to the extent that I’m 30 years old and still have a poster of him on my bedroom wall. A music film I watched really recently was Muscle Shoals, resparked my longtime love for Aretha Franklin..what a woman

47. Thanks for all your entries folks. Some great suggestions here, alas there can only be 3 winners. I’m email them now with details.
