Chaos

Background
Chaos Recordings (or simply "Chaos") was originally a division of (referred to as a "Dimension of") Columbia Records that existed from 1992 to 1994 that released more underground/alternative rock and hip-hop releases. When it closed and was replaced by a sub label of Epic Records called The Work Group. However, the Chaos label continued operating in Brazil for several more years after being long defunct in the U.S.

Logo (2001-2003)


Visuals: A frequency meter is seen wildly flailing as a drum solo plays out. "Stereo" in a Microgramma font can also be seen above the meter. When the drum solo reaches the end, it suddenly rotates around to reveal the Chaos logo, which is a dot-matrix circle covered by a scribbled mass, along with " Arial Black " below it. The meter is seen drawing in the last parts of the logo before it moves off-screen, giving a full view of the logo. A strip of black is also seen on the left side of the screen.

Technique: CGI by Guerrilha Filmes.

Audio: The aforementioned drum solo, followed by two men screaming the company name in guttural form.

Audio Trivia: The drum solo was performed by Marcelo Langame, who also did the guttural choir with Juarez Motta.

Availability: This was seen on Chaos' DVDs distributed by Sony Music such as Skank: MTV ao Vivo and Videografia, Planet Hemp: MTV ao Vivo, and Gabriel o Pensador: MTV ao Vivo.
