Deep Forest and Enigma

acid · May 27, 2002, 04:02

Looking for some bands like Deep Forest and Enigma or Era. Harmonic, relaxing music with nice, rythmic drums, maybe some choir singing in background.

You should definitely check out Gregorian (They're not Armenian) it's very similiar to Enigma, but more monkish.
Maybe also Mike Oldfield (some albums)...
can't think of anything else

Pinhead, you mean Gregorian chants or somebody actually named themselves "Gregorian"?

I like chants in their purest form--the way they were written originally, without any modern elements. If somebody is into it, here are my recommendations:

Hildegard Von Bingen (probably my #1 musical preference)
Perotin
Josquin
Dufay
Palestrina
Gabrieli

Wolfkraft:
Yeah, there is something like a band "Gregorian"
Chants in their original form? I wonder what they sound like, got an url to mp3 of, say, Hildegard Von Bingen?

Pinhead, they have quite a decent selection of all of them on http://www.audiogalaxy.com .

ЗЫ--Gregorian was actually homophonic chant, it was "invented" by Pope Gregory and named after him. Hildegard's chants are considered to be Gregorian as well.

I know that

i mean there is something like a band also, called Gregorian, they use gregorian chants combined with smooth percussion and groovie bass, Enigma stile.

Pinhead,

I'll check them out, seems to be interesting--I wonder which chants they're using.
By the way, there are beautiful Armenian chants as well-- http://www.monk.am --it's under construction now, but as far as I know they're planning to put out mp3's there.

Which is?...

Pinhead · May 31, 2002, 03:50

...not the most suitable program for making web sites

А...
Но тем не менее, о сайте--он о хоре при Гегардском монастыре. Насколько мне известно, они поют там каждое воскресенье--древние армянские песнопения, но скоро уезжают на гастроли. If anybody wants to check them out--better hurry
