TAV ESSENTIAL LISTENING

Pioneering Japanese producer Susumu Yokota's 2005 album 'Symbol', lovingly re-issued by P-Vine Recordings!

Borrowing passages and snippets from classical masters including Debussy, Tchaikovsky, and Ravel, he expertly lifts the emotion behind the original music while uniquely reimagine the music. From the soothing strings of opening track 'Long Long Silk Bridge' to the mesmerising chants of 'Flaming Love And Destiny', the album overflows with imagination and spellbinding beauty. Yokota was a true master of electronic music composition, and 'Symbol' is among his most playfully seductive albums. Penetrable but profound, its re-issue represents a wonderful opportunity for new audiences to marvel at his studio prowess. – Mixmag Asia
