A posteriori

Enigma

A cold, cosmic departure into space-age electronica. Pulsing synthesizers and astronomical themes replace the project's signature ancient choral chants.

It's Enigma, but you're on a spaceship and the monks stayed on Earth.

A cold, cosmic solitude that balances the wonder of the universe with the ache of human isolation.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition into the pulsing, trance-like rhythm of Dreaming of Andromeda that feels like a ship entering warp speed.
The heavy, distorted bass synth that grounds the whispered French and English dialogue in Dancing With Mephisto.
The vulnerable, unadorned emotional peak during the spoken bridge of 20.000 Miles Over the Sea.
