Cult Shot On VHS Public Access Variety Show 30 MINUTES OF MADNESS Gets Revisited with the Full Length Feature Documentary 20 YEARS OF MADNESS! A Most Excellent In-Depth Interview with Main Brain Jerry White, Jr!

When Jerry White, Jr. and a few of his friends first started filming their backyard hijinks with a VHS camcorder in the early 90s, they had little idea that it would be the basis for one of the most significant times in their lives. 30 Minutes of Madness is a cult variety show that ran through the early to mid-90s on Public Access. It’s largely shot-on-video, chock full of low-brow humor, non-sequitur and all kinds of experimental antics, created by a counter-culture collective consisting of self-proclaimed outsider artists from Michigan. These shot-on-video skits contain improvisational entertainment that just drip with...

Analog-Inclined Engineer Logan Owlbeemoth and his TACHYONS+ Brand Customizes Vintage Video Processors to Create Incredible Glitch Art Visuals via the VHS Format and Beyond!

As any Tapehead is likely to tell you, an acute appreciation for the aesthetics of VHS is one the most inherent aspects of our love for this magnetic medium. The innate idiosyncrasies and inevitable decay of the analog picture and sound in their natural state are usually enough to appease the average analog aesthetic thirst, but there are others who want to take those natural clips and blips a bit further and manipulate them into their own personal mutation of magnetic magic. Enter Logan Owlbeemoth and his wife Omebi AKA the analog engineering outfit TACHYONS+. Over the years, they’ve modified...

Rob Buttrum and His OUT-OF-BODY RECORDS Imprint Mix Experimental Audio and Visual Analog Elements with the Release of Noise Groups REGOSPHERE and SOMNAPHON via Fresh VHS!

Out-of-Body Records main man Rob Buttrum just can’t stop. His undying affection for all things analog accompanied by his unstoppable drive to make as much radical stuff as humanly possible has impelled him to arrive at that all-too-familiar intersection of artistic creation we call Exhilarated and Engulfed. His tireless efforts to glorify magnetic tape have yielded a cache of awesomely independent cassette releases containing experimental aural sounds that are as engaging as they are obscure. And now with his newest creation, Buttrum has blended elements of aural and visual experimentation to produce the first fresh VHS releases for his Out-of-Body...
