Absolutely Unparalleled!

This could quite possibly be one of the most played CD's in my collection. It is a complete work from beginning to end. Helpling was in the zone on this one!!!

A deep musical work

MARKUS

Hereby you can learn to listen something about progression. Electronic deepness with percussions, nice harmonic moves even some world feelings, a very good album who makes a suite to the first one (reminds a little to patrick O'hearn works but with his own feeling). This composer deserves to make for audio-visual and movies.

Very Moving

Ascendant

My favorite New Age album. Truly an exquisite work. David's ingenius use of guitar swells and deep percussion effects, subtly draws the listener into a state of moody introspection. You come away with the impression that although the world is a sad place in many ways, there is stil hope for tomorrow.

Excellent

Easily one of the top 10 New Age albums of all time. The more you listen to it, the more it grows on you. I am very much looking forward to future works by Helpling.

a masterpiece

One of the best new age albums I've ever heard. The track #4 Divine Whisper is especially amazing.

Sleeping on the Edge of the World is David Helpling’s second CD and it is a quantum leap ahead of his debut. It is still in the symphonic synthesizer style and has vast atmospheres, but Helpling has progressed in his compositional style. His sound design is more sophisticated and his soundscapes are more intricate. He weaves the atmospheres through the melodies deftly and smoothly without missing a beat. Deep listeners will go to the edge of the world with him. Helpling provides a warm respite at that stop. This is a very good CD; it will appeal to fans of Jeff Pearce, James Johnson, and J. Arif Verner. – Jim Brenholts
