Description

Richard Bone was one of the founding fathers of New York's late '70s/early '80s electronic scene. By 1983, his fame had spread as far as the UK, leading Survival Records to take a punt on his Brave Tales album. Since then, the LP has gone on to be regarded as an underground new wave classic, hence this first ever vinyl reissue. It remains a hugely impressive work, with Bone tempering the vibrant cheeriness of his synthesizer melodies and lo-fi drum machine rhythms with stylish, off-kilter vocals and some seriously addictive analogue basslines. There are nods towards post-punk pop, New York electro and, more bizarrely, 1950s rock and roll dotted throughout, as well as references to cult movies and lesser-known records from the period.
