One month before the 20th anniversary, “The Platinum Collection” of ENIGMA is a look back on one of the most successful musical projects of the last years. With over 50 million records sold worldwide, more than 100 platinum and gold awards and over 50 1 chart positions, mastermind Michael Cretu is eclipsing twenty years of a musical journey with a 3 CD-Box Set release.
To accompany the compilation of seventeen selected tracks of ENIGMA’s „Greatest Hits“ and a „Remix Collection“ of eleven tracks, is a 3rd CD called “The Lost Ones” which delivers a never before allowed insight into the creative sound laboratory of ENIGMA. “Everything starts with trial and error.” Michael Cretu explains. “Sometimes it’s a sound, then a melody, a harmony or a mood. The “Lost Ones” are my way of instrumental drafts developed from a boiling cauldron full of unordered, naive und carefree musical ideas.”
The mix of well-known worldwide hits and musical drafts collected over the last few years will be released on the 20th of November 2009. (Virgin/EMI Music).

"There is a simple, but impressive story behind this song", says Michael Cretu. One day, one of the Cretu sons came to his father after watching news and asked him: "I don't understand: Why people are fighting against each other? Many million years ago there were just one mother and one father.At the end, we are all brothers and sisters." |

|
| Cretu was really impressed about the simplicity, but also naive profundity of this question, and decided to write a song about it. |

"Seven Lives / La Puerta Del Cielo" - 2 Track CD-Single - available since August 8th 2008!
»Seven Lives – La Puerta del Cielo« is set to ease the wait for the soon-to-bse-released ENIGMA album, »Seven Lives Many Faces« (out on 19 September). The two songs, selected by ENIGMA mastermind Michael Cretu from 12 compositions, reflect his broad musical range in a hit-compatible fashion: |

»Seven Lives« is a dynamic, exciting joint venture of classical and modern elements. String sections of symphonic dimensions and earthy hip-hop beats blend together in a sonic tableau which has not been featured on any other musical canvas. Starting on 8 August, the German TV channel ARD will use »Seven Lives« as a sonic framework for its broadcasts from the Olympic Games in Peking.
By contrast, the second single track, »La Puerta del Cielo«, touches the listener after the first bar with the hypnotic voice of an over 60 yearold Ibicencan, melting a vocal tradition of many centuries with a haunting melody which captures the listener and refuses to let go.
Michael Cretu, with 40 million records sold and 50 no. 1 chart positions creator of, internationally most successful music project of the last 20 years, has these two appetisers from his latest offering, to build up the suspense for one of this autumn’s highlights amongst the album releases. Cretu’s compositional credo is straightforward: » I don’t care whether you can sing along to a song. But I want it to stay in the audience’s memory and make them feel that they want to listen to it again. And again … « |
