Fun Video Kids album fact #2 (percussion edition): The percussive ‘synth’ on the bridge of ‘feel it’, was created by slapping the top of an empty bottle of supermarket ‘bierre de generic’ into a sampler. The instrument has since been recycled. youtube.com/watch?v=0fHhYPOz…

It is with great sadness that we announce the departure of Emerson Vice from the Video Kids. It is with great joy that we welcome a far superior individual to take his place - Silvio Estrada.⁠

Only 3 days to go until the inaugural Beyond Retrodome! Freeplay retro arcade and live Synthwave. One of the top 10 ways to spend a Thursday night!

We had this song floating about and used it as filler on our first ever live performance - we have played it on every gig since and have now decided to include it on the forth coming album!
New release by @VideoKids1987, just popped up on bandcamp. Check it out .... Video Kids - Take It Out On You #synthwave videokids.bandcamp.com/track…
New Song Alert! INSIDE FACT - Geoff recorded the vocals to this one whilst sat in his Audi at a service station off the A46 between Thrussington and Colston Bassett. Afterwards he completed his journey home with light to middling traffic whilst averaging a decent 42 mpg.

We're only 293 plays away from the 10,000 mark on Soundcloud. This is a big deal for us. Thanks so much to everybody who has taken an interest in our music, it gives us what we're starting to suspect is a purpose.

Well, it's out; this one has sat on the shelf for enough time now - I guess we will never be happy, so here it is, Geoff videokids.bandcamp.com/track…
Had a superb time filling in for Kenny Loggins at Rotherham Pride 2019. Huge thanks to the event staff and organisers for looking after us. Hopefully Kenny will cancel again next year.
