The Screen Behind The Mirror

The music project Enigma started by mastermind Michael Cretu back in the 90s literally wrote music history: with over 70 million record sales, more than 60 number 1 charts rankings around the globe and over 100 platinum awards it became the biggest German music act of the last 30 years.

With his complex spherical music paired with meditative beats and fascinating vocal samples, Michael Cretu broke new ground for electronic music as such.

The Screen Behind the Mirror is the fourth studio album by Enigma. Recorded at the A.R.T. Studios in Ibiza, Spain, it was released worldwide by Virgin Records. Supporters of the album credited it as the most mature album Michael Cretu had created, while critics lamented the use of extensive samples from Carl Orff's Carmina Burana.
