About
Twin Vision was an underground label active during the early 1980s, operating at the intersection of industrial, experimental, and performance-based media arts. The label's output reflects a avant-garde aesthetic deeply engaged with post-industrial culture and conceptual artistic practices. Rather than focusing on conventional audio recordings, Twin Vision distinguished itself through a multimedia approach, releasing work primarily on VHS videotape and in magazine/postcard formats. This format choice aligned the label with experimental video art and documentation practices prevalent in underground arts communities of the era. The label's catalog included works such as Despair and Alchemy, alongside materials related to the radical performance collective SPL. Twin Vision's emphasis on video documentation and visual accompaniment to experimental sound and performance represents an important intersection between industrial music culture and underground video art movements. The label's significance lies in its documentation of performance-based and conceptually rigorous work during a formative period in industrial and experimental music history, capturing work that might otherwise have remained ephemeral.
