Tuesday Tune-Out w/Tom Guycot at PhilaMOCA July 24

Tom Guycot creates beautifully eerie, atmospheric soundscapes that make you feel like a post-apocalyptic survivor roaming the ruins of a once thriving metropolis as day turns to night. Your feelings aren’t eased either by the visuals provided by his collection of action/cult/horror VHS tapes. This isn’t lo-fi; it’s sci-fi music. And tonight he’ll be bringing his futuristic sounds to PhilaMOCA for you to zone out to at Tuesday Tune-Out. His set will be followed by a VHS screening of Quiet Cool, “an action film set in the leafy Northwest, in a town whose marijuana growers object mightily to the efforts of one New York City policeman to cramp their style.” Smoke ‘em if you got ‘em, folks. It certainly seems like the right place and time to do so. PhilaMOCA, 541 N. 12th St., Music at 8pm/Movie at 9pm, $5, All Ages – Q.D. Tran
