It's a little embarrassing, but this video has everything a hauntologist could possibly want - ruins, archives, scholars, ghosts, melancholy, dust, french, panpipes...
Ha ha! You're right - those ruins are particularly ace. I remember when Gregorian monk samples were all the rage. Wikipedia informs me that Enigma once released an LP called A Posteriori 'based on such sciences as astronomy, physics, history and sociology'. Splendid.
Actually, their wikipedia page is well entertaining: 'Cretu would claim that the now signature Enigma sound was inspired after falling asleep on the London Underground.' Blimey!

'From a statistical point of view, every Enigma studio album to date has sold roughly half of what the previous release did.'
!!!!
thus, capitalism must be riven apart by its own mechanisms...
This, on the other hand, is truly awful. Well done!
