I remember how much I was impressed by AoC's music when I got to Conal's Valley. Well, I finally found out that the artist singing that song was Helene Bøksle. Here is a link http://www.myspace.com/helenebksle to Helene Bøksle's website.  The songs are simply amazing.

Oh Hell yeah. I added her right after the game was released. Amazing artist. She really needs more recognition...that voice is completely unreal, angelic, and just totally incredible.

I can't seem to find anywhere to buy her music here in the US. Itunes doesn't seem to have it or amazon. Unless I'm looking for it wrong.

Anyone know a site in the US I can buy her music?

I have been searching as well. Amazon had a CD but they are discontinued so no luck here either. I am wondering if someone out there knows a good location to purchase her music at?

Taken from her Myspace page:

 You can buy her albums by visiting www.heleneboksle.no

Although the translation is completely up 2 you =P

*edit*

I followed some of the links as best i could and came up with this http://musikk.telenormobil.no/site/web3/view.ftl?page=artist&artistId=27424  Not sure because of the translation if that's a way to buy but it looks pretty close so I'm throwin it out there for you guys.

Thank you thank you leowyatt. Now I need to find out what that currency is so I can see how much they cost.

haha I can't even figure out how to sign up, it is in a different language. Maybe there is some online import site that sells imported CDs I don't know about. Thanks for the link leowyatt.

I am not sure if I can help you here but I guess I could give it a shot.

Her latest CD was released on Universal Norway. The text on the site is norwegian and Google translate seems to have issues with that - Even giving her a sexchange in the process .

Even if her recordlabel is on I-tunes I was only able to find 1 song there: "Vuggevise" (lullaby in english)

If you have relatives/friends living somewhere in the EU then it seems you can find her latest CD here.  (Price is not that great though)

The online store: "Platekompaniet" seems to have both her CD's in stock. Did not find anything on delivery outside of Norway but you could try writing them an email on: kundeservice@platekompaniet.no

If you are really desperate you could also try to contact this store. (A recordstore in Kristiandsand close to where Helene Bøksle started performing.):

Playcom - Rockline
Skippergaten 6
4601 Kristiandsand

Phone: +47 38026321
Fax: +47 38026499

(Most scandinavians understand English)

Good luck...

Wow thanks for all the info Halandir. I could have sworn I looked on itunes for her and came up empty.

What was that russian mp3 paid site that had mp3s cheap and had no DRM? I was thinking they might have it, but I can't remember the name or if it is even around anymore. They got sued by the music industry.

EDIT: I believe it was allofmp3.com which isn't working for me atm. I'll try later and search there.
