DJ and producer James Lavelle visited the BFI to talk about The Man From Mo'Wax.
Almost 10 years in the making, The Man From Mo’ Wax tells the remarkable story of Lavelle, one of the most enigmatic figures in contemporary British culture. Drawing upon meticulous research and exclusive access to personal home footage, debut director Matthew Jones assembles archive footage, stills and original interviews to chart Lavelle’s phenomenal rise. It includes him establishing Mo’ Wax as one of the UK’s most significant independent record labels and redefining what it means to be a DJ. In this film portrait that reflects the boom and bust of the modern music industry and a life that takes in some decidedly flawed decision-making (both personal and professional), Lavelle emerges as an innovative artist who thinks big and consistently overcomes adversity.
