NEW YORK, NY (August 8, 2016) – Legendary multiplatinum Award-winning German electronic music project ENIGMA returns with its long-awaited eighth full-length album, The Fall Of A Rebel Angel [Republic Records], available in stores and at all digital retailers November 11, 2016. The digital pre-order goes live today, HERE! On October 10, the first single and instant grat download “Sadeness (Part II)” will become available — a sequel to the project’s most notable and successful hit “Sadeness (Part I).”
Driven by founder, composer, and producer Michael Cretu, The Fall Of A Rebel Angel weaves together twelve conceptual tracks, known as “Chapters,” into one cohesive and compelling story. The music paints a picture of a protagonist’s progression, growth, and ultimate evolution.
