Listen: Guest Mix by Arvo Zylo

Active since 2000. Experimental sound structures wavering around industrial noise territory, often characterized by excessive layering of similar direct sources/samples, or constant integration of a YAMAHA RM1X Sequencer.
Recent work has been more performative and based on mic’ed objects, including group ensembles and primal/conceptual, power-electronics oriented vocal work.

We got a mix by Chicago noise/experimental artist Arvo Zylo to share tonight! Throughout years he produced countless solo releases (many available via his own No Part of It imprint) and collaborations with the likes of PBK, Bob Bucko Jr,, GX Jupitter-Larsen and others.
The mix he compiled for us is 2 hours long and is all over the map in terms of styles/genres! Think an unholy combination of Danzig, Donovan, Charles Ives, Morton Feldman and Butthole Surfers.
