Piero Scaruffi's
review of:

METAPHYSIC MAMBO
Richard Bone

     Here is the ambient wizard's alter ego: a tunesmith of the post-industrial age, in the tradition of early Brian Eno. Delightful and precious, but certainly not too adventurous. Catchy melodies (Cancion Del Arco), stirring dances (Darkness & Density), synth-pop arrangements and light humour. While avoiding the quicksands of new age spirituality, these instrumental songs are fairly conventional ditties that rarely become inspirational. But then maybe they were not meant to be: Bone the pop connoisseur can afford the luxury of having his audience sing along!
