Enigma

Enigma is an enigmatic and influential musical project founded by Romanian-German musician and producer Michael Cretu in 1990. Known for its melding of ambient, new age, and electronic sounds with various cultural influences and the use of Gregorian chants and Sanskrit prayers, Enigma quickly pierced the veil of mainstream music with their groundbreaking debut single "Sadeness (Part I)," which was part of their first album "MCMXC a.D." Its unique sound garnered a vast following, defining the mood of an era and going on to sell millions of copies worldwide.

The project's name, Enigma, suits its tendency toward mystical themes and cryptic messages within its music. Over the years, Enigma has released a series of albums that continue to explore new soundscapes and thematic content, engaging listeners with a blend of spirituality, sensuality, and meditative sound. With Michael Cretu at its core as the mastermind and various collaborators, including former wife Sandra on some early works, Enigma's music has often been characterized by its otherworldly qualities and has garnered an extensive and devoted fan base. Notably, with albums like "Seven Lives Many Faces," Enigma pushes the boundaries of its own sound, adding contemporary influences to its distinct style and proving its ongoing evolution within the musical landscape.
