Editorial Reviews

Where the world of fantasy and reality merge into one, Lesiem opens the heavens and paints the starry filled skies with the sensualness of operatic voices, worldbeat grooves, new age melodies and electronica elements, creating a musical genre they call "Mystic-Pop." Journey with Lesiem and navigate through far away lands and magical places into "Illumination."

5.0 out of 5 stars Lesiem, their own group.
Reviewed in the United States on September 11, 2011

Among others who were looking for comparisons one reviewer said, "can't hear any traces of Enigma or Pink Floyd", but if you like Enigma or Pink Floyd why would you want to hear the same thing in another group? Lesiem has developed their own distinct sound and unique blend of music which is done very well if you enjoy this type of New Age music. I also have two of their other cd's and enjoy each of them very much. There's really no need to try and compare them to anyone else; they're just fine who they are.
I think the description inside the cover expresses their style best, "Based on gregorian chanting tradition...with the sensualness of operatic voices, worldbeat grooves, new age melodies and electronica elements creating a musical genre they call Mystic-Pop."

5.0 out of 5 stars US/Americas version?
Reviewed in the United States on December 27, 2004

I bought this watching I woundn't buy the German original (entitled "Second chapter"), the only difference it appears to be the order of the tracks.

I'd bought it long ago, but for a good review it had to pass some time and good it did, so I have a good impression on all the songs.

I like them all, in general, Lesiem has that special that makes you like it from the first time without hesitating, but for me, the bests were "Pater patriæ", "Navigator" (the best), "Africa" and "Britannia".

Good work that links with the previous one!

Beautiful music but the words being sung are somewhat blurry. I love the tempo. Over all, it's an excellent music collection and I would recommend it to my friends.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Enigma...Err, Lesiem Album
Reviewed in the United States on March 25, 2007
The sticker on Lesiem's 2003 album, "Illumination," says "For Fans Of Enigma And Pink Floyd." I thought, "Well, that definitely describes me," so I bought the disc. Having now played it twice, my impression of this German studio group's 2nd album is this: "Illumination" is nice, pleasant ambient music, with excellent sound quality and production values. My problem with Lesiem is that they sound a little *too* much like an Enigma wanna-be group (though I don't know why Pink Floyd's name was put on the promotional sticker, as Lesiem sound nothing like Floyd). Think of the landmark first Enigma album, "MCMXC A.D.," with the chanting monks, lush keyboards & rhythms, the sultry female voices, etc., and then listen to this album. You got the chanting male choirs (though they're not monks, I'll give 'em that), the Enigma-esque keyboards and rhythms, sultry female & male lead vocals, it's all there. I won't call it a rip-off job, but I just think Lesiem borrow a little too heavily from the musical blueprint that Enigma leader Michael Cretu drew up. Now, if you really want an album that Enigma fans will love but is NOT a carbon copy of Enigma, then I recommend the outstanding "Worlds Within" by Govinda (which, coincidently, is released on the same label as Lesiem, Intentcity Records). As it stands, Lesiem's "Illumination" is not a bad disc at all. It's a pleasant, soothing soundscape you can kick back with some late evening. But with the arrival of Enigma thirteen years earlier, Lesiem, while unquestionably a talented group, simply aren't all that original.

As with other reviewers I was looking for new CD's to add to the likes of Enigma. If there was a league table for this class of music I would still have Enigma top but I have to add that I wouldn't normally write a review so early (only played once as soon as it arrived ) I thought it safe to say that it was still a good purchase and I look forward to more relaxing hours listening to this particular CD.

This is a must buy It has a wonderful story in the vocals set to brilliant music which is very atmospheric in its delivery slightly operatic perhaps but very good. Just one of those disks that is really worth buying . Also very speedy delivery.
