Ethnic Voice Samples

Sound is tactile; whereas visual imagery is experienced at the surface, a sonic experience can manifest both outside and inside the body. Heilung’s use of sound is to catalyse an imaginary inner environment which is experienced as sacred and ritualistic, conjuring tangible sensations unto their audience and projecting vivid imagery from an ancestral era whose practices and culture remain a mystery.

The 2009 self-titled debut from pianist/composer Jon Balke's Siwan ensemble was universally acclaimed as his modern composition and improvising quintet met Moroccan singer Amina Alaoui and Bjarte Eike's Barokksolistene, a Baroque group that weds the raw rhythms of Scandinavian folk to High Baroque. The album offered composed and improvised music centered on Gharnati music, inspired by the Al-Andalus era (730-1492). That inspiration is taken further afield on Nahnou Houm (English translation: "we are them").

Enigma brings the first album in eight years, and its Japanese edition exclusively includes two Japan only bonus tracks "Sadness" and "Return to Innocence." Also features Japanese original cover artwork & sleeve case packaging. The musical project, known globally as ENIGMA, has proved one of the most successful of the last quarter-century. It has delivered more than 70 million sales across seven albums, 60 Number One albums around the world, and received over 100 Platinum awards. Now, in 2016, Cretu reconnects with that very first multi-platinum album to transfer its bold, pioneering sound-world to here and now. The Fall Of A Rebel Angel is the musical parable of a sensitive artist's view on the human condition. The album tells the story of a protagonist setting off on a symbolic journey of development and change to find a new, fulfilling life.
