That happens quite a lot when you work with video/effects software. And not even in that fun, braggy way.

@@cybernakulum Hahaha, check out this guy, humbly bragging about his motion graphics skills but then mentioning he works with "layers, effects, and movements". Cause After Effects is the pinnacle of compositing and motion graphics, and is definitely not just a program kids and freelancers alike use to dabble with video effects.

@@uwirl4338
Yeah cause After Effects and Premiere isn't used by lots of professional editors and companies.

Sure, they're relatively easy to learn, but practically impossible to master.

Check out some posts on r/AfterEffects.

If you can do that, then you can practically do anything.

@@uwirl4338 I know next to nothing about graphics and animation, but I completely understand the concept OP was talking about. Once you gain experience in any craft you can begin to recreate someone's works without a tutorial because you have a basic idea of how everything comes together into one final product. The same thing happens for me with crochet, so I can look at a project and guess how to construct it by examining the stitches they use and such.

Nah he be like "meh i can't do that" and procceds to make better intro

@@cybernakulum I guess you can call it the artistic vision of an artist. Experienced artists don't see things  by how it is but rather how it was done. I've been digital drawing for years now and whenever I see a digital art my brain automatically creates the steps on how the piece was probably done by the artist, and when I finally able to say "I can do that" in my mind that is when I knew that I may have improved, that I'm experienced enough to understand the steps.

The amount of time you must have spent recreating all the artwork in new vectors is crazy

I believe there is a mega folder full of blank vhs covers as wallpapers.

A lot of them are simple straight lines. Not too bad. Would still take a long time though

@GageIsHandsome a motion designer could probably get it done in a week if you worked full days on it.

Give me a list of tapes used and send it to me. GO!

Out of interest, what software is used to make this? I assume Adobe Aftereffects?

I’m sure it took longer to animate it though. And he also had to figure out a way that all of those images fit together smoothly for transitioning all of them.

@@thl205 The whole thing could be done in After Effects tbh, however it would indeed be much easier to get the covers done in advance in Illustrator - which also doesn't take much time. I imagine figuring out the transitions was the most time consuming part.

ball saxophone CD used infared lasers, one of the thicker wavelengths of light. They held 650 megabytes. DVDs used a red laser, narrower than infared. They held like 6.7 or so GB. A blu ray uses a blue laser, the thinnest visible light. They hold like 60gb or something


Man, I want these kind of aesthetics to make a comeback in today's modern world. These are far more appealing than the "sleek and simple" design we've got going on. Infact, just modernise VHS tapes again, love em alot


Finally somebody agrees with me. Even though I was born in 2006, I’m so fascinated with old stuff like vcrs.

I'm a year older than you but I feel the exact same way. I grew up with VHS alongside DVD since we had a combo player and a bunch of old tapes from when they were still being released.

bathroomshy i never had tapes, but I’m still fascinated with them. The idea that magnets can generate video i a plastic box is kinda weird to me.

well nowadays it went from a magic black box and magic differently coloured smaller boxes to differently sized and proportioned magic boxes with a magic window powdered by magic black boxes of various sizes

same, i've got one or two scotch 240s and the cover art is peak 80s style

When I was a kid I saved up and bought my own TV. It had a 12" screen, and had a VCR slot at the bottom. I could watch anything I wanted. I was so proud of the fact that I bought it, I didn't care how small it was. It stayed in my room for years.

I'm genuinely curious about the reason people disliked this

dislikes = people who bought shares in betamax back in the day

@@clark_johannes Definitely not gen z or not all of us, as a gen z myself we like these kinds of visual stuff, it's satisfying and attracting to the eye, especially vintage stuff is currently popular among us right now..

@@clark_johannes As a Gen Z myself, i disagree.

people who simply misclicked OR very young children who got this recommended and think disliking it is funny.

Guys, I'm a Gen Z too and I enjoy listening to city pop and I don't even own a smartphone now

Yeah, I was born 2004, so the stuff talking about Gen Zs being bad is unfounded. I prefer to listen to video game soundtracks and synthwave, as well as some older music. I don't like much EDM stuff, but sometimes its good. The only rap song I like is U Cant Touch This, and that's because I listened to it when I was really young. I like looking at older stuff because it lets me relate with my parents and find understanding to their references and their generation's culture. The only really dumb generations are boomers and millennials, and even then there are a lot of good people from those generations.

@@clark_johannes from the type of comment you sound like one of the new kids, trying to rile up people to get lols and feel superior by being a troll even though you have a very miserable life and this qualifies as the highlight of your day, go the fuck away you fucking bettle fart.

@Snazzy Scott You were not born in the wrong generation, as a matter of fact, you were born in the generation where you could be exposed to such devices and pieces of the past. Liking something from the past or something new and trendy should not create animosity between people. Just because you prefer something doesn't make you automatically the enemy. You weren't born in the wrong generation, you just prefer things from the past.

@Snazzy Scott Nice! I've had feelings like that before, but not big enough for me to actually act on them. I'm glad you have a fun hobby that is interesting!  I'm more interested in reading about armored warfare and new technologies that are used in combat. I just think that machines of war are awesome. I'm excited to see what the new Rheinmetall 130mm cannon can do! It's honestly a shame so much of this stuff is classified.

from someone born in the mid/late 80s: my sincere wish for future generations (and my own) is that they'll stop assuming that the generation after them is "dumb" or "doesn't know how good they've got it".
i also hope they/we stop thinking them/ourselves special for liking old shit (i get it, a lot of modern consumer culture sucks! but it's always been this way! the reason people can look back and say, e.g., "music was better in the 60s", is that all the really bad stuff—and some of the good—has been forgotten). by all means, enjoy the old stuff… just try not to let it blind you to the new (and there are new things that are good. you just have to look for them)

[The smoothest synthwave you've ever heard]

A true classic,
and a marvel in its time.
The powerhouse of visual media for decades, with its cousins not far behind it and its competitors left in the dust.
It has traded hands from blockbuster hits, to simple home movies, and with tens of millions sold, the VHS is a truly iconic symbol of the late 20th century.

So how did this marvel of the early information age come about in the first place?
Why did it beat out the competitors in it's time?
And most importantly... Why did it all eventually come unwound?

edit: Yes, as it was requested I've uploaded a recording of this video on an actual VHS to my channel

Please upload the result (if possible in 60fps, please) :)

@@IvanDSM That would be impossible, I live in Europe so the VCR operates at 50FPS, well I'm guessing 25

@@MrFiver1111 Ah, yeah, in Europe you guys use PAL so it's 50 images per second. So yeah, 50fps would be neat :D

Make sure you record it as 4:3, not 16:9

@lilboybailey  Not at all! PAL VHS being 25fps is a misconception. Analog TV is interlaced, and each interlaced "frame" is actually composed of two different images, stored at half the vertical resolution of the standard. These images are called fields. PAL TV (and therefore, PAL VHS) displays 50 fields per second. The reason for this confusion is people think 25 interlaced frames = 25 progressive frames, and deinterlace the footage by blending the two fields contained in an interlaced frame into one progressive frame. The correct way to deinterlace the footage is to interpolate the missing lines in each of the fields, turning each field into a progressive frame. This results in video that plays at 50 progressive frames per second. I know my explanation is convoluted, but no, 50fps would not break the immersion at all - it would help it.

I HAVE IT!! I just need to upload it now, it was a pain; for instance I couldn't find any scart or hdmi capture cards for a low price, I had to buy a composite one for 12€ and then to get the media onto the VHS I had to use a DVD player, therefore burning this video to a DVD; if I had an HDMI to SCART and a SCART to HDMI or just a revesible adapter it would've looked crisp except for the tape compression

@@arteonyx T is for Timestamp babeee

In honesty, knowing how cool the person behind those animations is, im sure it was meant to be


Woah that one at 0:52 is nostalgic.  My dad used to buy VHS all the time as he recorded lot of hockey games and he often got those ones.     Know what's funny though, we've almost gone backwards in a way.  It's actually very hard to record a TV show for archival now.  You can use a PVR but now the show is stuck in a proprietary "black box" that you can't do anything with.  With VHS at least it was on removable storage in a standard format.  You could just buy more tapes as needed, pass them to a friend etc.  Now if your PVR is full you have to delete stuff.   I bough my dad a HDMI capture device that can record to USB stick so guess that's the closest you're going to get to a VCR, but at least with VCR you could watch something else while it was recording.

Red Squirrel Blu ray burners are the modern VHS recorder.

But you still need to find a way to get the video off the PVR.  There are ways, such as using HDMI capture, but it's not as easy as it used to be.

TV tuner cards are very much still a thing and, at least in the US, as long as it has a CableCARD port on it, you can get encrypted channels that you pay for, just need a conditional access module, you just gotta ask the provider for one though. Only issue is that Microsoft's support for that equipment is dying and the free alternatives ate unstable as hell

I think thats maybe the point. Was too easy to record and pass it around. Copyright infringement was their biggest complaint back then. My mom still has shelves full of movies that were recorded on blank tape and passed around at work.

I got a TV decoder that can record raw TS streams to a USB drive. It's awesome, though nowadays there's no interesting content on national TV in my country. I use it to record and archive TV ads.

@@OSVSL yea if you have one vcr's and vhs's really aren't sold in stores anymore in the US besides amazon or ebay and the last vhs manufacturing factory on earth closed not all that long ago, eventually a vcr and vhs will have about same antique value as a reel to reel projector

My parents recorded on a variety of tapes, including those kind and the others on the vid already.

DGTelevsionNetwork yeah I have a cable card TV tuner.  You can record anything and it just makes a file of it.  I have a windows 7 box with media center for that sole purpose.


I feel like I’m too young to appreciate this one fully but it’s still amazing!


Looks like the start of a movie I'd definitely wanna watch.


No, you won't, you can't make me... I-

... Back in my day we recorded our TV shows!


This video really made me appreciate something.
I could just say that I wish I was born in this era, where cassettes and tapes ruled. I could say that I wish I grew up with the different music, the different people, so many things.
But then, I would have to forsake so many things I've come to take for granted. I'd have to leave behind the things that made me the person I am today, being on the cusp of adulthood.
Could I just give it all up and try again, in a different way?
No.
What I am glad for, is that I get to experience videos like these, that show just how alive and vibrate the world was before me. I can live today and see what happened yesterday, meet the people and talk to the people who grew up with this unique experience. I can see all of the beautiful things that have been made in rememberance of what once was, and is no longer. What I can do in the future is to do the same for others.
Constantly forwarding the human experience.
Isn't that the age we live in now?
Man, I gotta go the fuck to bed I got a final to fail

My grandfather recently passed away.  We've been cleaning out his trailer home and have literally carried out thousands of pounds of blank VHS tapes (as in never recorded to), all makes and brands.  He was a habitual TV show recorder from early on when blanks first became available on the market and recorded shows on VHS all the way up until a month before he died suddenly from hearth failure caused by an infection that brought on pneumonia.

I have to say of all those brands, Fuji was an absolute beast.  Those VHS were built like tanks and had some real heft to them and their cases despite having the same record time as the cheaper brands.  Looking through all the blank VHS tapes plus the ones that actually had stuff on them, I was very much reminded of this video and just had to come watch it again.

One little treasure I found was a TV recording of The Hobbit, the original cartoon who's sound effect reels were all lost in a fire years ago.  The destruction was so complete, that when they released it on DVD, all the sound effects were missing.  I am 100% gleeful to hear those amazing sounds once again, even if it is VHS quality.


Imagine seeing this whole intro before you watch a movie.....and you can't skip😈

The maker of this video needs to know it is saved in my favorites. Quality content.


Wow, this is bonkers, great job.. what software do you use?  O.o

and probaly C4D or another 3D program. Because if the 3D parts were made with Element... damn

@@overdigitize yeah exactly, the 3D parts threw me off

@@naikomusic pretty sure after effects can do basic 3d shapes. nothing too complicated, but it can do things like cubes and spheres. maybe he used that. i havent really played around w after effects 3d shit to know very much

@@l3gacy C4d flies can be used on to after effects

@@ReylordFX ahh, i didnt know that. thank you for letting me know because i would like to explore 3d animating a bit more

@@overdigitize theres not that many 3d elements in this video

yet, theres no lightning used in this video. the light reflection in some parts are just textures or a 2d png file on a 3d surface


this is the kind of content that the youtube (that died years ago) recommended to me. i dont want any crap about 2 ads or mongoloids playing mobile games i just want to watch the beautiful creations of other people like this (that actually proves they have something to do with their lives)


You really need to release each of the covers in glorious Hi-Res detail now. I would snap it up super quick.


Can we have an entire movie dedicated just to VHS Tapes so we can use this video as the intro? This deserves some recognition


This is like scrolling through behance in 2020.


This video made me realise that modern Flat design was already used much earlier than I thought.
It only took a little bit longer before it was used for on-screen UIs.

This is really beautiful and interesting.


oh my god yes this home song is finally getting more popular


Do a collab with Ahoy already. The design and transitions are so clean and beautiful.


Those Transitions- like always -were so smooth!


Oh man those Scotch tapes and late nights recording Aeon Flux on MTV Oddities.


plese Go

This is the most late 2010s thing I've ever seen.


Jesus Christ that's some talent right there. 0:34 was my favorite transition.


This is the guy who spends 3 hours on choosing Power Point transitions.

Sometimes I make one slide across a few for the sole reason of transitions.

This shouldn't be a thing.....

....but im so glad that it is 😊


I keep watching this over and over again, some of it I know how to edit together but other bits just blow my mind and bewilder me.


where can i get high res images of these covers? they're just too cool :)


This video introduced me to HOME (the music in the background) 3 years ago. I still listen to it.

Interesting, I introduced to HOME with "resonance" when the vapor-wave esque music meme become trending right around the same 3 years ago


If I were making a documentary about the history of VHS and other outmoded video formats, I would license this for the intro in a heartbeat.


This is such a beautiful way to reminisce on VHS covers and the 80s-90s. Thank you for this.


I feel like you should have paused or slowed down when the cover lined up, but this was really fun to watch. Also I was expecting a video essay so color me surprised.


I really love your work, that's insane. Gets me motivated to continue improving in After Effects.

You did so much justice to the amazing design work the artists did back in the day.


Do you have a patreon? I'm left feeling like I owe you, this video is so good.


The chill in this video is too much, dude; and that editing is just O O F. . .  R A D


Get this damn ink off my Fucking screen.

@@hw7202 excuse me, i didn't understand u


I think this is my favorite of your videos. Psychedelic, retro, simple. You’re ability to break down the designs and transition them. Fuck I like this

How do you do it? How do you make great videos?


Why is every video you make the most athletically pleasing thing I’ve ever seen?


wow it looks like the average edit on a 20 minute 2019 youtube video.

I don’t know if this was meant to be a dog at the editing but I can assure you this takes absolutely ages in after effects.

@@DeployTheDRSso does every fucking intro template but you see millions of those. oversaturation ruins everything


i still remember so many of them but i never activly saw them as art, until now


My parents had a ton of home movies and TV recordings, so I recognize a lot of these designs even if they're before my time.


The effort that went in to this. Amazing.


Thanks for the reminder that flat colours and strong, simple geometry is so striking.


Can we just, appreciate of how smooth the edit and the recreation is?


You're making me nostalgic for something I've literally never used


I've seen this at least twice a week, mainly cause its home and it gives me nostalgia, having a family that used VHS until 2011. I wish I could go back.


This videos is so mesmerizing. I don’t have words, I just love it!


My childhood memory (90s) for VHS Covers <br>Just lovin the color & line patterns , so fasinsting & still modern in 2020s 💪💪👏👏

Best motion graphics work I've ever seen. Makes me wanna cry


I’m not old enough to remember these but somehow I still feel the nostalgic vibes


The stripes all look like really aesthetic color palettes for art


That was amazing!! Really brought back some great memories of those VHS days!


This is incredibly meditative. I love every second of it.


Amazing! This made me super nostalgic for the simpler times.


Your video makes makes them look a lot better than they were in real-life.


This is really trippy to watch while you're high


I appreciate the use of music. Home is my favourite artist


When I was a very very little kid, like 4 in the early 2000s I vaguely remember these on video recorder cassette tapes.


This is beyond creative and nowhere near what I expected


This introduced me to home before the night


1:10 What a great name for a video cassette.  It’s like a “shadow” of the “silver” screen. The captured echo of a movie that can now only be viewed again at home on the small screen.  Back then nobody had a home theater with a cinema quality screen.


Thank you. 20 years of using vhs just rushed by in front of my inner Eye. Absolutely brilliant....


Maybe it's because I grew up with them but I've always been a fan of the typeset & logos of physical media formats. Thanks for the nostalgia trip.


<b>I miss you 4096. Please come back... <3</b>

*I miss you 4096. Please come back... <3*


I never thought I'd find justification for my slight fascination with VHS covers and theur use of colors and design, but this video wemt above and beyond.


These transitions are perfect, very well done 👌


1:04-1:17 literally makes me feel like I'm floating in the most positive way possible.


This is next level amounts of beautiful.


this video is such a trip that it’s making me fall asleep


I just spent an hour looking for this. I remember when it was first released in December 2018, right around the time all my friends were graduating college and I was left behind still in school. I remember sitting in the library typing a paper and listening to this while I looked on snapchat and saw all my friends out at the bars or partying. It was a weird feeling knowing that my life as I had known it for the previous 3 years was over. I wasn't bitter at them, but that feeling I had I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy.


Almost one year later it caught onto the recommended underwater current. ALMOST.


It's weird how much we appreciate mundane things only after they're gone.


Thank God for animated wallpapers, now I can look at this anywhere


This might be my favourite video on this site! I can still vaguely remember some of these covers


I still have some of those Memorex tapes lying around somewhere.  This was a heck of a trip down a memory lane I didn't even know existed.  I don't know what exactly brought you to your inspiration for this, but thanks for saying "yes" and rolling with it.


This video is so oddly beautiful. Such wonderful and unique artwork these covers had. Thank you for this. Great video!


You better be working for some company that has you make stuff like this for them, like ads or whatnot, these skills are too good


i first watched this in july, i can’t explain why i’m so nostalgic for the first time i saw this, it’s surreal


this is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot.


Dude homes music makes any game great, no matter what genre it is home is perfect


Some much good memories seeing all those graphics and logos...Thanks.


I completely forgot what blank VHS covers looked like until this video. Thank you.


ngl 80's arts and font styles were ahead of their time


i have so many of those sony 6hrs videocasettes. childhood memories!


Might be the prettiest audio visual experience on Youtube


Wow!  I'm actually really impressed by the artistry of this! 👍😁  Should be an official Apple TV screensaver!


this is one of the top 10 best YouTube videos. hands down.


I just graduated, going into film/TV production. I'll remember this as it will make a great intro credit sequence for something of this time era


This is just pure gold! Thanks for making such a beautiful video!


Yup, the 80s had some of the coolest graphic designs ever. Pretty much anything you could buy had that cool art style back then.


How can someone dislike such a great video? This is awesome


Oh the hours of old adult swim I have saved on these. What a treat! Great vid!


It has been 4 years since this dropped. I remember when it dropped. I'm feeling ancient now.


I don’t even know what this channel is about but I’m subscribing anyway. Phenomenal motion graphics


I think this is my favorite video from them so far.


I love these transitions. And I love you.


This hits my nostalgia section of my brain HARD AF!


I don't even know what I'm looking at but I love it.


Just by looking at the thumbnail I knew there was gonna be some dope visuals


It took me until half way through the video to realize what the video was... and it is amazing :)


All this time, and I had never put a 'like' on this beautifully nostalgic video?! That needs to be rectified!


For what I know. The longest-lasting storage medium still is the magnetic tape. For that reason, the data created on CERN (i think it was CERN) is still stored on such tapes.<br>I mean the now used magnetic tapes haven't that much in common with the VHS we see in the video. But this video just reminded me how interesting this medium is.

Home is the perfect fit for a vid like this


When you've the material you haven't the creativity and when you haven't material you have creativity...uff


Im glad to be old enough to have lived with videocassetes, but im sad to be too young to have many memories of them, such as horror nights with my friends as teens/young adults... Also when we got a dvd player my parents brutally threw all the casettes away, except for my baptise and their wedding. Aaah, I miss my Tom & Jerry and Disney cassetes so badly...if only I were a bit older I would persuade them to keep all of them, coz as far as I remember they all played good enough to keep.


this is the prettiest thing i have ever seen


Man i miss the 80s even though i never was born during it. Just a 19 yr old appreciating music and movies from there


HOME makes some great songs, been listening for a bit over a year now, my fav is the oddessy playlist


Amazing an Crazy vid! The transitions are insane! Love it<br>S/O to the music!

Barely have idea on what this is but these things are smooooth.


almost every frame on this video can become a wallpaper


Brooo this legit looks like the intro to a movie that takes place in the 80's!


This is mesmerizing! I always liked looking at those designs, especially once they started getting more than just stripes 😆


In short - HOME and 80s/90s nostalgia is like bread and butter.


I was thinking the same thing and this video appeared in my suggestions.

I love graphic art.


A fascinating look at an era I'll never know


I was a hard core video pirate in the 1980's...   these graphics bring back memories..


this video is like one final tribute to vhs casettes, and I like it :)


This looks like the beginning of an Apple Event


I agree old blank VHS tape boxes were kinda cool and beautiful looking there were some old Beta Max blank tape boxes that were also quite attractive


This makes me feel things I didn't know I could feel


And yet this song is still underrated till this day


this one man has put more effort into vaporwave with one video than the rest of humanity over a decade


The best motion graphics channel on YouTube.


Imagine turning on ur vcr and seeing this


Great, now a want of full set of t-shirts with this labels printed on the front.


It's amazing that you've managed to convince me that those kinda gross covers I never paid attention to were actually kinda A E S T H E T I C


I come back to this video so many times.


My favorite one was the Philips tapes, gray box with these amazing 80's RGB lines all over it.


This is a beautiful use of Before The Night!


OH MY GOD THE TRANSITIONS ARE BREATH TAKING LITERALLY I PAUSED BREATHING FOR LIKE 35 seconds until I had to breathe again 🤣


I was born in 1999 and a lot of these images were stored somewhere deep in my memory and I didn't even know it


Oh, I remember these ;-;<br>Thank you for this <3

Oh, I remember these ;-;
Thank you for this <3


The most genius thing to come from this channel


Fun fact the 3 line of color on some VHS tapes and the old apple logo and TVs  back in the 80s were used to represent that they had color


the VHS metaverse: In another time without DVDs, they kept using tapes untill we had a network of actual mile long tape reels from city to city in a giant cathedral of magnetic tape decks to use the internet


This would be an amazing opener to a concert


I can't believe this video exists, amazing


I want a whole T-shirt series with all these on


I have this video set as my desktop wallpaper and i was laying in bed and for the heck of it i turned on this video to listen to the song and when i clicked play it was exactly the same as my wallpaper, i clicked play exactly when the walpaper restarted, down to the millisecond best 1:42 seconds of my life.


I feel like i was transported into 2018 after watching


This makes me feel things I didn’t know existed


Kinda beautiful? More like really beautiful!


I know it's been years but as a design student I'd LOVE to see a bts of this video


This would make for an epic music video, and it already kinda is.


its trippy when i feel like im in vr watching this when im staring at a literal monitor


Jeez  I still have so many blank tapes lying around. More than just tools. Awesome video.


This is the best video I've ever seen on this damn website.


This video is amazing!  I have no idea what else this channel produces (and I've decided not to look), I'm just going to subscribe and hit the bell and see what pops up next !


I'm glad this popped up in my recommended today


Instant subscribe, such a satisfying and well made video!


It's all fun and games until the VCR eats your tape.


I absolutely love this.
Something about the logos from the 80s and 90s look so professional and proper.
You just know for a fact that if these were designed in more recent times, they'd be flat and boring, with ugly rounded lower-case font...


Back when I skated 5Boro did a set of decks all inspired by these graphics, the one I had was the coolest deck I ever owned.


dont you just love the aesthetic of these videos?


Man, I was expecting a slideshow not this awesome animation! :o


I love it when youtube recommends me some good quality shit


There are few perfect videos on YouTube , this is one of them.


Retro-futurism is one of the best things invented by man


every time i come back to this i wonder if any of the artists behind the original covers have seen this video, granted they are still alive

I'm pretty sure most of them are still alive, VHS was only created in 1976 and started to become popular during the early/mid 80s


Good lord the way the video just pull me in


when someone says youtube videos can't be art I'll show 'em this


0:39 While all VHS tape covers are so favorable, this is personally the most beautiful cover we've seen (perhaps because of our monochromatic color scheme bias, though).


why do i feel like this would be in a part of movie credits?


Under-appreciated concept and execution.


They sure liked their parallel lines didn't they


I would really love a set of wallpapers for each of the covers appearing in the video


Very pretty! Some of these make me think back to Scanimate animations. These are a lot cleaner, but some of the same vibes.


Dude, you are gifted. This is some next-level shit


Thank you for introducing me to this song!


I absolutely love the fact that multiple people even backported this video to ACTUAL VHS tapes.

@NickOXIDRandom For being a PAL tape recorded in SP mode.

And @thisislocombia for being a NTSC tape recorded in EP mode.

I honestly like both of them! (And obviously the original video, which is this one right here)


VHS, cassette and floppy where the thing in my life


everything was designed to be beautiful back then


Dude you should make more of these “aesthetic” style videos, they’re awesome


I think this is where Jolly gets their palletes for their logo.


I have a lot of those Fuji ones near the end with the green waves. Years of family videos on those things.


THIS IS THE COOLEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE


These would make some good ass computer wallpapers


all our most talented vaporwave artists already escaped into the 1980s with the tesla time machines of Andrew d basiago


We've all got to be nostalgic about something. Thanks for sharing. God bless


I actually found a blank Polaroid VHS tape still shrink wrapped. I opened it because I wanted to see what it looked like fresh. That was a cool discovery.


Not goona lie Its So Good<br>It feels like im in vacation❤❤

Ok this is one of the biggest flexes I’ve ever seen.


Okay, admit it. We've all looked up each of these tape labels after watching this.


Damn, after trying to recreate a 50's Helvetica poster from scratch I get how long this must have taken to redo all the covers digitally, then animate them

I want all of these on T-shirts right now!


This guy should be hired to make a commercial


Imagine if the designers of these vhs cases could see their designs today 😔


Oh dude Memorex. Used to copy every movie we rented at Kroger. My mom would record episodes of David the Gnome for me when I was at pre-school. I recorded the South Park movie on one, and episodes of X-Play, Trigun, FLCL, and a Girls Gone Wild commercial :^)


i dont what you did but that was fricken impressive shit man


I literally have the Memorex VHS Cover at my home lol.


How did I know exactly what music would play before watching this

i was subscribed to 4096 for a while and i got this in my notifications when this came out


I knew it was going to be good since i heard HOME's music in the video


i wish we could time travel

i would play this just after VHS has the market share and air it on TV


0:37 That transition from the TDK E-180 to the Fuji T-120 was so seamless it's not even funny.


Oh man I want the past to come back so bad it hurts!

Still have vhs tapes at home they look amazing

I would def pay $1.99 to have this as my AppleTV screen saver.


I'm pretty sure I bought almost all of those brands of blank tape back in the day.


I really really liked that, what a brilliant video


The videocassette covers personified the 1980s with their loud boisterous colors.


They were not kinda, they were beautiful. And they always will


if credits were like this i watch the whole thing


If I could get this as a screensaver I would


What kind of crazy rabbit hole did I just fall into... I have been using YouTube basically as a podcast service for so long now, I haven't "watched" something this intently in forever.


Man, where u at? The world needs such aesthetics now more than ever...


I need more. Anything. Something. Where do I find content this good


I miss seeing these on the store shelves.


THIS!! I have been trying to find the video where I first heard this song..


i need these on shirts right now omg djdj


This looks like the credits at the end of a movie.


Several months ago this video made me immediately buy Wallpaper Engine on Steam. One of the best purchases I've made by far.


The colors remind me of the late 80s and 90s.


Aaaah, I never understand lighting in after effects


I have a lots of VHS cards designs and looks beautiful


I think this was the first "nostalgic" video that i felt nothing. I didn't have many vhs '-'


YouTube: Ok so how many times you're gonna watch this?

Me : yes

YouTube: Ok so how many times you're gonna watch this?

My neighbor is an avid collector of movies. He used to have massive shelves of VHS tapes and has now switched to HDDs. I showed him this to see how he would feel, but he wasn't very impressed :(


We were watching recorded VHS into the 2010's, then we got the internet.


...I thought I was the only person that felt this way


Make VHS Great Again! I want a VHS/Betamax revival this decade.


I wish I could like this video more than once


They should make SD card boxes like this!


Wish whoever made this would do a cassette version


This music sounds like something HOME would make lol

OmG it IS HOME!!! I love them 😂


Waiting and waiting and bang there's the memorix shortly followed by the scotch. They were the two we had an endless supply of


4096 was the last 4 digits of our telephone number growing up.

Oh my god I remember all videos from our old camcorder were recorded on a scotch tape


Haha that’s so cool I’ve been crazy about VHS and after looking in my cupboard a few times, we actually have the ones at 0:53, 1:00, 1:16, and 1:19.


Imagine in 2021 they bring back VHSS but even better what if there HIGH definition and has a main menu imagine that

I love this presentation.  Actually, I still have a few of those with the covers.  One or two maybe unused as of yet!


I miss when marketing wasn't overly simplistic nor over the top.


This is so fucking cool I love it, thank you for this


Later covers had pictures of smiling people on them. 🙄 Oh look, I'll  buy this product because they look like they're enjoying it!

A E S T H E T I C A L L Y  beautiful! ^-^


never though id think 1 million views wasnt enough for a video


Last year I was making a logo for my CS:GO Team, I wanted to do something based off of old cartoon coloring logos or maybe VHS tape logos. We're called Technicolor so I started looking for one VHS tape logo I know I saw, it had a multicolored band going around the tape but I couldn't find it. That is until this video came up and showed it me. Aphex Videocassette. 4096 your videos are amazing never stop being amazing


Love this! Now do one with cassette tapes!


this video is literally the only video that made me dizzy


I knew this was a HOME song before I looked! 😁


it would've been cool to grow up during the 80s


No one can do better than you, not even no one!


Well he's back and hell are we proud<br>Let's celebrate bois

KINDA BEAUTIFUL?! not KINDA just just.   .*AMAZINGLY*. [Edit I love this video] [Edit 2 Any1 gonna talk about the smooooth transitions?]


In Britain we dont have any of these fancy VHS covers as far as I know


I still have a T-120 JVC Videocassette in my room


This is the best thing I've ever seen* philistine


I remember a few of these. Specifically the Memorex HS

Ahhhh, I even recognized the Radio Shack brand.


It's almost like this guy designed all the old cassette tape logos so he could make this video in the future.


Before turning to grunge this was my type of aesthetic

Yeah now that I think about it, they were pretty cool


where have you gone? it's been almost a year!


I felt like I just launched Jackbox and opened Fibbage 3


I wonder why was the last video 10 months ago did it take a long time to creat something new


Of all of these the only one ive been able to find was a memorex 120 in the free bin outside a 2nd & charles, in addition to like 20 chrome cassette tapes with teenage mutant ninja turtles, miami vice, snow, and random piano practices recorded onto them; I just need to figure out a good way to frame it lol


The 80s were more futuristic than the 2020s.


These transitions remind me quite of Xbox Ahoy’s vector art and transitions


this guy's username is the same as a shiny pokemon chance.....why did it take me so long to realize that


Why are you sniffing the farts of nostalgia


Loved this, shame there wasn't the TDK dolphin vhs cover of the early 2000's


I remember the chemical smell when you unwrapped a new cassette tape, they should bottle it.


Fun Fact: Those tapes had a little tab you could break off and then it couldn't be recorded over.


oh yeah, gimme some of that h e l v e t i c a


This channel should make an ai to do tansitions like this


Меня почему-то это завораживает.)

This video probably took more effort than the original creators used to draw those covers


1:06 - Samsung is currently popular among people because they have every Samsung product


please do a tutorial series or something similar
something low effort would suffice

please.


I agree with you, even though I am one with the future.


they weren't but thanks to this video they now are


i swear 0:41 is some sort of national flag


born in 93. my mom used to have BOXES of vhs tapes all with movies and cartoons taped onto them.
i remember popping in a movie after years of letting them collect dust and it was so wild to see old commercials hitting my nostalgia.
like that little slice of pizza that had a face and would always get so beaten up
or the commercials where they would incorporate looney toons into the real world, like how cartoon network did years later.

man... i wonder if those tapes still exist somewhere...


This should have been a CSS animation based website...


You should include the 1985 Maxell HGX Gold. It's awesome.


hello! that is amazing!!!!! did you animate those?  would you help me with a credit sequence for a VHS documentary?


I love seeing videos like this... then seeing little kids in the comments acting like they knew everything in this video and getting all "deep" about random stuff that has nothing to do with the video, its just funny


But when the world needed him most, he vanished.


<b>not me getting jelous for people who got to be alive in the 80's and 90's</b>

My high school has a vhs with the same cover from the thumb


ah yes, a type of nostalgia my gen-z ass would never understand


Every other company: 2d and 3d shapes

SKC : Goryeo celadon


If this doesnt give her nostalgia shes too young for you


This feels like if the RTX 2080 existed in 1989.


is nobody talking about the actual topic tho? i stared at blank vhs covers art in 3rd grade all the time lol


WOW! Beautiful indeed!!!!!! :)  Is there more??????? :)


Everytime you blink you miss 10 hours of editing


i hope he makes his debut in a few days sinc eit has almost been a year


Esto es arte<br>Cinema fr dijo el Scorsese


I wish i had one I just want to stare at it


Fuji Cassettes.. My dad has a lot of em.


Watched this on discord with a bunch of friends the other day and the consensus was that this video FUCKS


It's weird looking in the future 60 years thinking "these are the 80s"


vhs good times! pain in the ass tho if the one that watched the video before u didnt rewind the tape and u had to either turbo rewind and see the whole movie backwards or the blue rewind screen of doom not knowing when ure finished. Well ofc when it goes silent in the vhs player but u know what i mean!!!


Hello yes I'd like a 10 hour version of this please thanks


Super avilyns were the best overall for recordings imo. Close second is the Maxell P/I.


Why am i watching this at 2:37 in the morning?


So I have a record player a cassette player and now it’s going too be a CD player and now what?


1:20 and now.....the vhs tape that finally knows about gravity!

Edit:and the next one...the on that's made out of paper!


Why am I watching this? I don't even know what a VHS is


what genre of music would this be. Makes me feel groovy and nostalgic.

Chill synth retro wave maybe
Sounds like the synths are heavily affected by a chorus, like on the Juno
And a filtered snare with a compressor on the whole thing.

synthwave probably

the song is Home - Before the night


All these VHS will be lost in time like ... tapes stuck in vcr.

Also, where is BASF?!


It's funny how it's nostalgic now but I remember after having seen them for years and years, it started to look cheap, tacky and outdated. When you have 10 boxes with rainbow laser covers of TVs or movies copied on them it's like you knew it was going to be lesser quality than had you bought the real tape.


My mom has VHS tapes like these on which she recorded stuff from TV. But our vhs tape player is broken so we can't watch them to figure out what's on them :((


I was born after VHS became irrelevant why do I recognize these


2^12

I subscribed to a power of two wow.


Why does this video have under a million views?!


I am a "gen z" apparently after looking it up. So I don't know what am looking at. I know what a VHS is I just never seen all the generations of box art <br>(I assume it's box art)
