The relationship between the art forms of music and film is far-reaching. Can you imagine movies without musical scores? Or what about a modern world without music videos? The two mediums naturally go together, so DZI: The Voice added the ultimate combination of melody and cinema in our 5-day “Best Music of 2013 (So Far)” series. In this edition 5 music-based documentaries covering unsung artists, a great American genre, musical activists, a legendary recording studio, and a band reunion are placed in the spotlight.
