Free Music Notes for A Posteriori
Free Music Review: Big, nocturnal rhythms
Hit: 5 Stars
Enigma continues to be original and high quality. Producer Michael Cretu expands his epic sound with an album that's more abstract and electronic than its predecessors, and seems more sinister in tone. Intense synthesizers and slow, deep rhythms occupy the beginning of the album, with memorable lyrics in the last half. Tracks three and four must be Enigma's most forboding yet. Enigma blends the industrial / electrical with the ghostly like I've never heard before.Free Music Review: Excellent
Hit: 5 Stars
I love Enigma, and this is just another perfect CD to ad to my collection.Free Music Review: Sophistication of Sound
Hit: 4 Stars
A longtime Enigma fan, since their first album, I picked up "A Posteriori" with some trepidation after reading the reviews here. The first spin yielded a lukewarm reception, only the first track seemed to appeal. However, each repeat listen brings up something new that I hadn't heard before and I feel as if I'm hearing a slightly different album every time.
Richly layered, "A Posteriori" is in some ways a new level of sophistication for Cretu, in my opinion. Putting Enigma 1 into the player after listening to this one makes the first effort sound almost jarring and sophomoric by comparison (except for the lovely "Callas Went Away").
My favorites to date have been "Le Roi Est Mort, Vive Le Roi" and "Voyageur" with certain tracks on the other albums appealing to me more than others. "A Posteriori" is bidding fair to join my top three Enigma albums and reflects the evolution of sound that Cretu has been following subtly since "Roi" and more obviously since "Voyageur".
Definitely worth a listen for long-time fans and newcomers who appreciate a more subtle, trance-like sound.
Free Music Review: Absolutely awesome album
Hit: 5 Stars
Being a little bored with the last few albums, I wasn't sure how this one was going to compare.
After listening to it I was pleasantly surprised, this album is just amazing, Beautifully writen, amazing beats, and truely creates an awesome atmosphere for any emotion.
Well worth the money.
Free Music Review: Nice mix of sound
Hit: 4 Stars
It was a little different than what I was expecting, but I liked it the first time through. I have always like Enigma and I think as time goes on, I like it more. There are some great modern sounds on this album, as well as some great grooves. I really like it.
