Seeland Records is an independent record label created by Negativland in the 1980s to release their own recordings. Their logo was a parody of that used at the time by Sea-Land, a freight company. Their name was a parody of the micro-nation of Sealand, which in early history was home to radio pirates, and currently home to a government that does not respect international copyrights or intellectual property.
Seeland largely disappeared when Negativland signed with SST Records for a time during the late 1980s and early 1990s. But after an acrimonious split with that label, Negativland revived Seeland and begain releasing new recordings, not just by themselves but also by other artists (the Evolution Control Committee and John Oswald to name two) who usually shared their philosophies regarding fair use.
