Releasenotes:
The first three Ricardo Donoso albums now available as a very limited boxset.

Ricardo Donoso has composed a new paradigm of ambient music, in which concrete
textures and digital synthesis expand on an abstract world in constant movement
& mutation. Under a chain of progressive rhythm's, cinematic textures and
elegant melodicism, Donoso's work pushes through with piercing strength,
manipulating a sonic wave through space with nothing but pulse and mind blowing
intensity.

Although Donoso's work has coalesced into a much broader and dynamic beast, his
early work continues to be a source of inspiration. 'Symmetry' now compiles
Donoso's first three albums, lovingly referred to as the "Digitalis Trilogy"
which includes Progress Chance, Assimilating the Shadow and As Iron Sharpens
Iron, One Verse Sharpens Another in a deluxe 4xLP BOXSET & 3xCD edition. A truly
entrancing journey of polyrhythmic counterpoint, the 'Symmetry' collection takes
in influence from minimalist composers such as Reich & Riley, early techno and
trance, and lush and deeply harmonic ambient music. It's possible to look at the
'Symmetry' trilogy as a blueprint to Donoso's later work in both its musical
scope & thematic grandeur. Amidst all of its wide eyed, dreamlike states there
is always a rumbling of subtle violence piercing just underneath the surface
creating a truly immersive experience.
