David Helpling- Found (CD)
The dramatic final chapter of an award-winning three-album series by celebrated ambient-electronic artists David Helpling and Jon Jenkins, "Found" follows the path set by the duo's genre-defying releases "Treasure" and "The Crossing." Blending cinematic electronics with rock power and spacemusic sensibilities, this release showcases the duo's unmistakeable sound, highlighted by thundering drums and percussion, shimmering electric guitars, intimate pianos wrapped in lush synth textures, and a poignant guest vocal by virtuoso Miriam Stockley. Filled with powerful rushes of adrenaline, beauty, loss and triumph, "Found" discovers uncharted territory in the expanding world of electronic music. Helpling and Jenkins' first collaboration, "Treasure," was chosen as one of the best CDs of the last 20 years by listeners across the USA in the ECHOES 20th Anniversary Poll on Public Radio International.
