Synopsis

Album Description

Concluding the trilogy begun with ELECTROPICA & COXA, ASCENSIONISM is a musical travelogue through the mystic teachings of Kabbalah and shimmers with the warmth, wisdom and hope emanating from the Ascension Schools high over Luxor, Egypt. From the Earth plane of "Assiyah", through the joyous dance of "Sister Samadhi", to a musical conversation with Kerouac in "Walkin' with the Dharma Bums", these passionate melodies unfold like a flowering lotus. However, no journey of the spirit can be truly fullfilling without humor or optimism. So we find ourselves at "Sultry Sally's Meditation Alley", where red velvet walls and jasmine inscense conjour up images of the cosmic and the carnal. Finally we meet the man who will manipulate our aural fantasies for some time to come, Jet Swami. Open your hearts, open your minds and let ASCENSIONISM carry you EVER UPWARD!

CD Reviews

The essence of coolness in this sassy jazz

K. N. Nelson | California, USA | 11/11/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Richard Bone writes really awesome music. This album is one of the best in the really hip and popular genere of smooth jazz. As a devotee of ultra cool music, I have often found myself amazed while listening to our local equivalent of smooth jazz radio how many times I hear really conceptually limited music by famous artists who get repeated air play of their "corporate" stuff. There is nothing conceptually limited in Richard Bone's music. As you listen to this album you will hear a creative genius who is his own man, tantalize your musical taste buds with a fusion of jazz wrapped around fresh, melodic, outrageous grooves, kissed with some knock out spiritual vibes, plus occasional ambient sounds sprinkled throughout to tease you with a sweet reminder of the natural world outside. Waters of Assiyah, Ariel Dane & the Seraphim Swing, Ascensionism and The Continuing Adventures of Jet Swani are guaranteed to get your body, mind and spirit movin' to the grooves. The entire CD is simply terrific."
