A greatest-hits package sampling four Enigma discs released between 1990 and 2000, LSD splendidly documents the influential output of Michael Cretu, a techno-bohemian who successfully creates cinematic, otherworldly New Age-like musical suites. Now, more than a decade removed from the arrival of Sadeness (Part 1) and its eyebrow-raising mix of sacred and sensual subplots, people can debate whether Cretu's music represents savvy commercial calculation or satisfying art. LSD suggests a split decision, though tracks with intriguing blends of atmosphere and rhythm, such as "Gravity of Love," "T.N.T. for the Brain" and "Morphing Thru Time," reveal an inventiveness that demonstrates Cretu is capable of more than sophisticated novelty tunes. Two new songs, neither especially noteworthy, open this package. Meanwhile, remastered older tracks segue beautifully to exude a satisfying, seamless unity. Big bonus: run time exceeds 76 minutes. --Terry Wood

- hello? Enigma is just the best
Ok...I have been listening to Enigma for years! I've tried other artists that were supposed to have the "same" type sound...NO COMPARISON IN ANY WAY SHAPE, FORM OR FASHION!! They don't even touch his style and genious in any way! All of his songs are just pure sensuality in my mind...deep beats, hypnotic voices, other worldly evoking feelings...Michael Cretu is just the bomb...LOL don't know what else to say! YOU WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH ANY OF HIS ALBUMS...TRUST ME!!!

- the very best of Enigma
this is the best compilation by Enigma, and probably the best lounge, or chill out music out there now (or what i personally call "sex music") besides the Buddha Bar albums. the tunes and songs are amazing to listen to for hours; i have compiled all the songs in one single continuous mp3 song and have it on my iphone everywhere i go. this cd should be in anyone's collection if you like this kind of music.

- Silence must be heard.
"People talk too much for what they have to say, words without meaning... they are fading away."
And so, this is music at times invigorating, at times relaxing, but at all times captivating and thought provoking.
Good to dance to, drink and read to, make love to and eat to and meditate on.All around nice and very creative.Highly recommended.

- If you ever liked Enigma, just order this one.
Well, it's a CD full of music from Enigma as written by Michael Cretu. So, if you always hated his use of chant, or his wife talking over the sounds, don't buy it. But, if you have ever wondered what else Engima wrote other than popular tunes like Mea Culpa or Sadeness, this CD is full of truly wonderful music - especially lesser known cuts like TNT For The Brain, Modern Crusaders or Principles of Lust. Cretu mixes sounds like no one else and the result is almost completely mesmerizing and alive ... Read More
