Using bits and pieces of orchestral inspirations as thread, Symbol weaves patterns that straddle somewhere between electronic and ambient in its austere design - the album emerges a spellbindingly successful collage, one that’s soothing in texture and rich with understated emotion. — \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003eThe Analog Vault\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"100%\" height=\"380\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/0ntm3YaiXVkkGitWl2XASV\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e↓\u003cbr\u003eLabel: P-Vine Records\u003cbr\u003eFormat: Vinyl, LP, Remastered, Limited Edition\u003cbr\u003eCountry: Japan\u003cbr\u003eReissued: 2021 \/ Original: 2004\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Electronic, Classical\u003cbr\u003eStyle: Modern Classical, Downtempo, Ambient\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFile under: Japanese Electronic\u003cbr\u003e⦿\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"P-Vine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41456775233694,"sku":"4995879071564","price":70.0,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0584\/5434\/3838\/products\/R-19981105-1630169381-9409-jpeg.jpg?v=1646296819","url":"https:\/\/theanalogvault.mom\/products\/susumu-yokota-symbol","provider":"The Analog Vault","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
