10 tracks. Running time 67:28 Treasure goes to prove the old adage that some things can be more than a sum of the parts. Apparently it's six years since the inception of this album. In that time Helpling and Jenkins have masterminded a work where each musician's input is readily noticed yet the overall result is more enchanting than the mere combination of their own styles. An auspicious and dramatic start to the album is made by “Grand Collision”. Smooth otherworldly synth washes discreetly ebb and flow then a percussively rhythmic section bursts in along with attention grabbing drum work. In between there's an interlude of dreamy synths, a simple repeating piano melody, brief wispy wordless vocals, and airy drum effects. A favourite piece of mine is “The Frozen Channel”. Frosty drones shimmer like sparkling ice fields, then a gentle rhythm and bright sparing piano notes come in as if we're on a boat journey passing through a peaceful Arctic landscape of towering icebergs and expansive floes. This is a prime example of how the album lulls you into a blissful and peaceful frame of mind where the imagination can be guided, or just wander, and dreams can unfold. In this music induced reverie it's easy to notice ephemeral things around you, such as dust motes glinting in sunbeams. Bringing the album to a close is the cinematic and poignant track called “The First Goodbye”. Resonant washes and pitter-patter notes like tear-drops coalesce into an emotional melody that slowly builds in intensity and rhythm. Listeners will find the textures of the washes and drones on Treasure to be exquisite. It's in this realm that the two musicians complement each other especially well. This is a “must have” album for ambient fans, and one which could become an instant classic.
