http://www.ocremix.org/remixer/destiny/ for those who don't know who she is. Helen hasn't been around this community for a while (supposedly she considered it a stepping stone), but was very highly regarded while she was here for the quality of her Enya-like vocal and instrumental work.

Her first album is a 2-CD endeavor, with a total of 22 tracks. The first disc is called Inside Myself and contains the bulk of the songs on the album, while the second disc is entitled Once Upon a Time, having a fairy tale theme. You can buy it at her CD shop here:

Google Checkout only works for orders within the UK at the moment, unfortunately.

The price is a bit hefty at 8.49 GBP (~$17 USD), especially with international shipping if you're in the US, but most people who have heard her work will agree that it's worth it for 2 CDs of Destiny goodness. In addition, each copy will be personally signed by Helen, with an optional message of your choice.

Better hurry if you want a copy though: there are only 100 in print.

Why didn't Destiny announce this herself? Not that we don't adore our little DSHU, but I'm just curious.

...Also, I'll buy it when I get home. Her voice r good.

That's my theory. I found out about this album through another person's post on VGMix.

Probably the same reason why Shael doesn't post info about Captain S, cause she is lazy.
Haha.

I find that theory pretty hard to believe. I think it's more likely she's just a very, very busy little European.

edit: listened to the samples. She sounds FUCKING sublime.

The cd itself is about $17...but I bet shipping is going to be a pain.

Or perhaps because certain *COUGH* members the community would immediately make another attempt to get into her pantalonés, now that Jill is taken.

Which reminds me how saddened I am that a pixie/Destiny collaboration never transpired...

Edit: Shipping is 2.00 GBP outside Europe, so the total will be about $21.

I've been following the progress of this album and a half for a while. I'd say I have over half the songs already downloaded, but not all remastered and stuff - SO excited! "Dream of the Innocent" is the most beautiful song you'll ever hear. I ordered my physical copy, despite the $21 price tag. ^o^

Yet! Helen had said on her MySpace that she's looking to collaborate with a female vocalist in a classical crossover style, so I immediately jumped on that. She was all for it, but we'll have to wait a while since we're each a little preoccupied with our albums at the moment.

Though what would be REALLY cool is if we could feature it as a special guest track on my release this spring. Good way to keep promoting "Inside Myself" as well...

You guys should definitely check out the Zine she's starting up through the FaeFly Records page. I think it's gonna be a great resource.
