Profile

[b]南方唱片機構有限公司[/b] Established in 1974, [b]New Southern Records[/b] is a Malaysian record company that releases Malay and Chinese music, as well as non-music (such as movies and dramas) and English music releases. It was only in the mid-1980s that New Southern Records began to release Malay-language music, that later would be expanded through acquisitions of several local record companies. Until 1991, the NSR logo also includes a gramophone. The album code differs: in the late 1980s and early 1990s, it was [b]NSR XXX[/b] ([b]NSR CD XXX[/b] for compact discs), but as of 1993/1994, this was changed to four digits, with the number "8" being the first number of four digits. The CD releases had the code [b]NSR XXXX-2[/b], example: [b]NSR 8093-2[/b]. Its releases are identified by the barcode [b]9 557204 XXXXXX[/b].
