![]() ![]() MCMXC a.D., so named because MCMXC is the Roman numerals for 1990 (the album was released in Europe in December 1990, but not released in America until February 1991) was the very first Enigma album, as as far as I’m concerned, Enigma’s most consistent work (I found their following albums a bit more inconsistent, even though they too had some good material).īack in November 1990, I was watching MuchMusic (Canada’s answer to MTV, which I thought was more interesting than MTV at that time, in my book) on the satellite dish (I was living in Florence, Oregon at the time) and there was this video being played on CityLimits (a show that played lots of underground/alternative/experimental/indie music) and they were airing this video to Enigma called “Sadeness”. He had already released a few albums and singles under his own name since the late 1970s. I generally don’t go for dance music, but Enigma was that rare example of making dance music actually interesting!Īctually Enigma was less a band and more the brainchild of Romanian-born Michael Cretu. Odd, only because it’s a dance album I actually like. ![]()
