S.E.A Record Label Logo Archive Book
Independent record labels in South East Asia began to sprout in the late '60s-particularly shown in the book-the Philippines, Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia-diminishing commercialization and giving the impressions of artist authority from each record. As the musicians and artists created work that adhered to the genre and its style, talents are blooming across the country and intercepting oceans, breaking the language barrier and paving its way towards the audience's ear-verifing and legitimate the right: none dispute its value and status.
Though there is no clear road, and some have to bow to the assertion of authority. independent labels always have stern measures to keep their creativity on the watch. They are relentless and resilient-always have more to see and more to be awaited.
Since World War II, South East Asia has experienced tremendous social and political changes. Between 1945 and 1957, all of SouthEast Asia, except for two countries, gained independence from the Western colonizers. The post-war period from 1945 until the 1970s had also been an extremely creative artistic moment across the world, a time of decolonization and radical political changes, ranging from independence to nationalism and/or socialist revolutions. It is important to realize that struggles between communist and anticommunist factions afflicted the South East Asian region throughout the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s and in a general way dictated how some kinds of music and art would be promoted, tolerated or forbidden. The countries presented are connected in a way that has many cultural disparities but at the same time also share some likeness either through history (before and after colonization) or politics, religion, languages and modern culture. vile this is possibIv a subjectve view and order. it should not be taken for granted.

The book comprises logos and brand marks archives from several independent records across the continent in South East Asia (SEA), compiled independently from personal record collections and correspondences. As logos not only symbolically show identity per se, it also acknowledges the epitome of an independent spirit which was at one time very prominent in each of their countries and in some cases, the attitudes and policies of each government until today
