In their second album, Enigma leaves the Gregorian chant behind for a new landscape strewn with tribes, holy echoes, and chanteuses. Maybe it's the synthesizers, the samples, or I-don't-know-what, but this German techno-trance group manages to unwind, relax, and heal, so much so that I can forgive them for "The Dream of the Dolphin," which actually includes the painfully ridiculous lyrical bromide "Man... is the dream... of the dolphin." 1994
