The Fall of a Rebel Angel Coffret 2 CD

Description

More than 25 years after the release of Enigma's groundbreaking debut album, MCMXC aka. Michael Cretu, the founder, composer, and producer of this revolutionary musical ensemble, returns with a brand new project titled The Fall of a Rebel Angel. Enigma has established itself as one of the flagship formations of the last quarter-century, having sold 70 million copies of its seven albums, reaching 60 number one spots in charts worldwide, and winning over 100 platinum records. Michael Cretu reconnects with the bold and innovative musical universe of his very first album by offering a true conceptual odyssey, in the form of a musical, poetic, and pictorial journey evoking redemption, change, and evolution. The music is articulated by the German poet and composer Michael Kunze - a Grammy and Echo award recipient - whose narrative will feature in the special edition of the album. Wolfgang Beltracchi, one of the most famous yet controversial artists of our time, conceived the album artwork and created twelve original works accompanying each of its twelve tracks. The result of eight years of work initiated by the meeting with singer Angunn, who lends her voice to the first single Sadeness (Part II), The Fall Of A Rebel Angel will disrupt conventions through the strength and convergence of the expressive means of several artists in the service of a disturbing psychedelic mysticism.
