Enigma – MCMXC a.D.
iSpeech.org
At its best, MCMXC a.D. replicates the satisfying mesh of musical stylings as heard in Principles of Lust and Mea Culpa. At its worst, the album can be a bit repetitive in its sampling of generic-sounding house beats that add nothing in particular to the track itself. The album can also tend to be cheesy in its use of guitar solos intended to enhance the overall etherealness, but unfortunately have a particularly stale “generic 1980’s sound” to them. However, as a New Age album it remains nonetheless extremely impressive in its varied use of musical genres and instrumental effects/experimentation, proving that New Age.
