The background shows a dark, cosmic scene with subtle star-like specks, suggesting a space or galaxy theme. Surrounding the circle are colorful, parallel stripes in red, blue, and yellow, curving around the logo, evoking a vintage, 1970s aesthetic reminiscent of Electric Light Orchestra's iconic style. The overall design feels energetic and nostalgic, capturing the essence of a tribute to ELO's music and era.
