Diggin‘ in the Carts is a six-episode-long web series about the world of Japanese video game music. Over the past few weeks this show has introduced the main people who stand behind the sounds that influenced an entire generation of musicians.  „These people created an art form from their work and we should listen to their tunes as an original music not only as a soundtrack to a video game.“ The authors of the documentary Nick Dwyer and Tu Nei believe. Also a number of contemporary musicians appeared in this show such as Flying Lotus, Kode9 and Dizee Rascal.
