MCMXC a.D.
''MCMXC a.D.'' ("1990" in Roman numerals followed by an abbreviation of Anno Domini) is the first studio album from the German music project Enigma, headed by Romanian-German musician Michael Cretu, released in November 1990 on Virgin Records in the United Kingdom and Charisma Records in the United States.
Before he founded Enigma, Cretu had released several solo records, collaborated with various artists, and produced albums from his then wife, German pop singer Sandra. Following their marriage in 1988, Cretu developed an idea for a New-age music project named Enigma. ''MCMXC a.D.'' was recorded in eight months in 1990 at A.R.T. Studios located in Cretu's home in Ibiza, Spain. It is one of the first albums recorded onto a hard disk drive. Cretu makes extensive use of Gregorian chants, dance beats, and flute sounds.
''MCMXC a.D.'' received some criticism for its sexual and religious themes and connotations. Nevertheless, the album was a worldwide success, reaching the top 10 in ten countries, including the UK, and No. 6 in the U.S. where it sold over 4 million copies and stayed on the ''Billboard'' 200 chart for 282 weeks. Four singles from the album were released—"Sadeness (Part I)", "Mea Culpa (Part II)", "Principles of Lust", and "The Rivers of Belief". "Sadeness (Part 1)" was the most successful single which topped the singles charts in several countries. The album was re-released with additional remixed tracks in 1991 and 1999.
