about

Live solo at Transistor, Chicago. Here is an excerpt from the press blurb:

"For this Transistor performance, Arvo Zylo (Blood Rhythms, NO PART OF IT LABEL, chronic freeform radio DJ, freelance sound writer) will perform a soundtrack to a segment of the 1925 silent film version of 'The Wizard of Oz.' Says Arvo: 'I initially brought the silent film version of 'The Wizard of Oz' on a random gut feeling, to accompany a piece for two sequencers in 2012 at ENEMY. We randomly picked a segment of the movie, because I've always loved the imagery (and hated the music) to the film."

"What happened, I felt, went perfectly to the scenes where Dorothy is being kidnapped. I later found symbolism that doesn't quite catch on in the Judy Garland version, a much more grim prognosis for the life of Dorothy, and decided to progress with the material to make it even more fitting. I have yet to perform it again in Chicago [since 2012], but when I have tried it out of town, there has always been some mishap or shortage. I will try it one more time.'"

Also on the bill was "Good Stuff House", a project of Mike Weis from Zelienople, The Chevrons, and many others.

Side Note: The art is unrelated and was completed by Arvo in a bar in New Orleans, 2004.

Tuluum Shimmering is a favorite U.K. one-man-band/psych artist from way back, but he also featured a mysterious, laconic reel that was recorded in 1972. Great lo-fi trance-inducing kosmische. NO PART OF IT
