3 out of 5 stars Wide range.......2007-01-09

Some of the arrangements are brilliant and innovative. However, some of the loops are dragged on an on to the point of annoying monotony.

5 out of 5 stars Between Green and Blue is a turquoise beauty! .......2004-10-06

This debut album from New Age musician David Helpling is a really beautiful album and a wonderful hidden gem. The album cover perfectly showcases the mood of this album: Moody and mysterious yet very much at the same time, calming and peaceful.

Patrick O'Hearn fans will certainly enjoy this CD a lot because it borrows a lot of the styles of what Patrick O'Hearn composed and recorded during the 1980s. The most O'Hearn inspired tracks are the beautiful opener "Stormchaser" with it's stormy melody and exotic rhythm, the eerie "Alone At the Shore", "Wild Things" and "The Blue Sun" which almost sounds like something that could've come from O'Hearn's 1986 album "Between Two Worlds".

However other songs also have a distinguishable style with "Emeralds" being such a beautiful and heavily rhythmic beat, hauntingly beautiful melody, and a really cool chord change during the middle of the song.

While this album might have been slightly clouded by being a little too much like copying O'Hearn's 1980s style music, "Between Green and Blue" is a fabulous debut album from Helpling and I highly recommend purchasing a copy of this wonderful album.

4 out of 5 stars As good as Patrick O'Hearn.......2001-12-19

If you're a fan of Patrick O'Hearn's sound, I think you'll be pleased with this album that might fall somewhere between "Between Two Worlds" and "Metaphor" of O'Hearn's. It's relaxing, but cheery -- excellent for solid listening or background ambiance.

I bought this album based on Amazon.com recommendations, and I was VERY pleased with it. I'll be looking for more of Helpling's material.
