THE SPECTRAL SHIPS, ETHER DOME, COXA & ASCENSIONISM
RICHARD BONE

   "The Spectral Ships" takes the listener in a hypnotic ride to a mysterious inner temple. With distant washes of sinister coloration and foreboding aural tapestries "The Spectral Ships" reveals a "fourth world" cerebral epic.
     In "Etherdome" you brilliantly reconcile Light and Dark by weaving floating atmospherics, breathing harmonic waves and deep resonant music.
     "Coxa" and "Ascensionism" are uncommon yet accessible albums, but these new (for me) titles reveal a more intimate, almost visionary side of your personality. Fans of deep Ambient music should not miss these superb releases.
