Donoso, Ricardo

Machine To Machine

"Following on from early 2015s exercise in dissonant formalism "Sarava Exu", "Machine to Machine", Donosos newest full length work sees a return to a more melodic sound. "Machine to Machine", continues to bridge the gap between Donosos more rhythmic and melodic work alongside his more experimental, loose and dissonant side yet still maintaining his unique signature feel; "WTF"-polymertric rhythms, elegant cinematics and spine chilling tension. Recorded over the last two years in between visual commissions and more through-composed heady works such as "Sarava Exu" and "A Song for Echo", "Machine to Machine" represents Donosos return to the songbook format for the first time since 2012. Influenced by the work of Edward Bernays, Gustave Le Bon and Ernest Dichter - wherein past efforts have seen Donoso looking inwards, "Machine to Machine" has him looking outward - incorporating subliminal advertising techniques such as backmasking, ZMET and steganography, "Machine to Machine" is a meditation on priming with and without awareness and a treatise on the psychophysics of our contemporary age. "Machine to Machine"s collection of songs are Donosos most versatile yet, incorporating all major elements from his discography into a unified album. There is something for everyone on "Machine to Machine", and that is well the point, a vast range of emotion eliciting stimuli for your consumption. RICARDO DONOSO is a composer, percussionist and electronic musician from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil who currently resides in Boston. After having studied composition at Berklee College of Music and New England Conservatory he has participated in a slew of projects over the years, most notably playing drums for avant-death metal unit Ehnahre and being one half of the ever morphing electronic duo Perispirit. Ricardo's musical vocabulary draws as much from contemporary composition, drone, to techno and noise.
