    [Yeah, we know it's listed as SOLD OUT. That's because it's a pain in the ass to ship stuff like this outside of China so it's super hard for us to say how much it will cost to mail it and when it will arrive. A better way to get a copy is just to email us and we'll figure it out] A compilation that see electronic acts from China and South Korea being paired with sublime, compiled on a VHS tape in a manner that harks back to early music videos from the likes of David Bowie and Devo. In a similar way to how audio cassettes can add a certain warmth/charm/shittiness to the work committed to them, these tapes give a certain aesthetic appeal that is often copied but never fully replicated. Each copy is dubbed over Chinese films and TV shows that are mostly pretty terrible, but give a unique twist as every copy of the compilation is taped over a different substandard feature, meaning no two copies are the same. The cover artwork of the tape was designed byBeijing based American visual artist Nick Sanders, who has shown work in numerous shows around the Chinese capital. Also includes a digital download of the audio and video.

about

Nasty Wizard Recordings have decided to celebrate the glorious medium of the VHS tape with a compilation of electronic artists from China and South Korea. Combining some of the most exciting purveyors of glitchy sounds and hard hitting beats in East Asia with static drenched visuals seemed was deemed the perfect stocking filler for a label that has so far dabbled in CDs, tapes, floppy disks, and dark matter (the last one might not be true). Yet despite the backdated format this line up is no lame duck, featuring music videos from Goooooose, Last Boss, Loads Nothing, Fløøød, Noise Arcade, and GUIGUISUISUI from China, and TENGGER and Yamagata Tweakster from South Korea.

The compilation video itself is dubbed over Chinese TV shows and poorly dubbed foreign films that are mostly pretty terrible, but give a unique twist as every copy of the compilation is taped over a different substandard feature, meaning no two copies are the same. The cover artwork of the tape was designed by Beijing based American visual artist Nick Sanders, who has shown work in numerous shows around the Chinese capital.

This online version includes all the audio as well as download link to the digital version of the video compilation, emailed to you personally by the Nasty Wizards. Physical copies are available on request by contacting us below.

Keep it nasty, keep it VHS.
