Rainbo Video is Arturo Evening, a Chicago-based musician and artist. Constructing electronic pop out of synthesizers and hazy clouds of processed guitar and electronics, he makes songs that sparkle and shift like vast dreamscapes. His live show incorporates projected visuals to enhance the experience.
Originally making fast-paced, experimental dance music, he has expanded into crafting subtler compositions in the ambient and minimalist vein that integrate acoustic instruments, synthesis, and live computer processing and performance. While these two threads of work are clearly distinct, they both share an unmistakeable affinity for melody. Future releases will expand in both directions: rhythm and haze.
The summer of 2011 has seen Rainbo Video release his debut album, Shadow Relics. Audratic has called it “a piece of engaging, electronic-based minimalism,” describing opening track “Ultraviolet” as a “beautiful and epic 10-minute plus piece, reminiscent of Steve Reich’s Electric Counterpoint.”
