RPM Orchestra is a proto-Industrial Americana music ensemble based in Phoenix, Arizona. The orchestra composes and performs original scores to accompany films of the Silent Era, provides musical scores in collaborative multidisciplinary performances, records soundtrack music for contemporary films, and regularly performs at various music venues. ==Origins and history== Started in 2008 as a studio project by Pete Petrisko, the orchestra transformed into a live multiple-member ensemble by mid-2009. Its line-up has varied between three to seven members, with its core group (Petrisko, Jim Dustan, Jocelyn Ruiz, Vic Void) playing together since 2011. Cited as a "band staffed by futurists and dadaists who take the sounds of the past and filter them into the heads of today's audiences",〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Interview - RPM Orchestra )〕 the orchestra is most identified with dieselpunk music - combining elements of Jazz, Swing, and Bluegrass commonly found during the diesel era with its own unique instrumentation and avant-garde composition. Additionally, it draws from the "noise" aesthetic of Proto-Industrial music 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Russian Industrial Music )〕 harkening back to the Russian avant-garde period. The orchestra eschews digital sampling (music), instead favoring analog Electroacoustic music and Acousmatic sound techniques and the use of contact microphones, when creating elements of its music. Its eclectic sound has not gone unnoticed, RPM Orchestra currently holds distinction as the "Oddest Band in Phoenix".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=9 Oddest Bands in Phoenix )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「RPM Orchestra」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
