Bio
With five outstanding releases to his credit, Jon Jenkins has established himself as a unique artist with a distinguishable style. Not an easy task in the Electronic/Ambient musical realm. His solo debut, FLOW, was designated as "Critic's Choice" by Billboard Magazine, and his album BEYOND CITY LIGHT was selected to the Amazon.com Editors Top Ten best of the year list when it was released. Both releases, along with TREASURE, a collaboration with David Helpling, were listed among the best CDs of the last 20 years by listeners across the USA in NPR's ECHOES Radio 20th Anniversary Poll. As a recording artist, Jon Jenkins sees it as his responsibility to grab the listeners by the ears, pull them into another world and show them around a little bit. "I've always been fascinated by the ability of a good piece of music to stimulate the imagination and transport the listener to another place in their mind without ever leaving their chair." “Growing up, I listened to Pink Floyd, Genesis, Marillion, Peter Gabriel, and Tangerine Dream because they always made albums to be experienced rather than just listened to; they maintained a nice balance between power and space." This led Jenkins to begin experimenting with his own compositions. "I couldn't get enough of that stuff, so I just started to create the music I wanted to hear." On his 2007 release, TREASURE, Jenkins found the perfect musical collaborator in David Helpling. The two express their vision on an epic and expansive scale, rich in organic textures and moving passages. One reviewer summed up Treasure perfectly when he wrote, “…imagine David Lean rigging his Panaflex with Korgs.” Most recently Jenkins and Helpling have teamed up again, and on their new collaboration entitled THE CROSSING, the two kindred artists embark on a fresh sonic expedition - a cinematic, powerful and deeply melodic triumph that lifts their music to new heights.
