Harlequins
Enigma is a Bergen, Norway-based band created in 2008 by synth musician, composer, and video producer, Åge Riisnes. Harlequins
Enigma is mostly a one-man-band, but Elin Berge, Katie Leung, and Sara Jensen serve as co-members with several album appearances over the years. The primary musical creations revolve around chip-tune, electronica, techno, experimental, video game soundtracks, space, ambient, and new age genres. Åge began experimenting with synth-based music in the early 1990's. Throughout the years, collaborations with Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, Klaus Schulze, Vangelis, Kitaro, Tori Amos, Kate Bush, Dave Weckl, Chick Corea, Jan Gabarek, and others have spawned rich, creative, and mature developmental compositional achievements. The name origin of Harlequins
Enigma revolves around a "hope for something better, as an eternal flame." It is based upon expectation. Åge describes the circumstances around the creation of the name: "I once had a lighter with a girl on [it], showing a little of her face with a yellow rose & two identical females as guardians at each side of her [with a] picture [depicting] a walking creature that looks like a walking mouse [that is] pregnant." Harlequins
Enigma has released twelve full-length albums since 2011. The first three albums released in 2011 include The
Journey of Harlequins
Enigma 1, 2, and 3. The electronic series was followed by Octagon Vol. 2 - Night Pulse & The Silhouette of Dr. Voodoo, and Octagon Vol. 3 -
Battle Without Dishonour. Two singles were also released: "Time Dance" (Liberty Mix) and "Battle Without Dishonour". In 2012, Harlequins
Enigma released Ophidians: Caricature Personalities, Neighbour Tribe, The Long Road, and Octagon Vol. 4: Loom. The latest few albums released in 2013, include Ophidians - Big Chiefs, TD Sound 1 (feat. Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream), and Discord (feat. Jean Michel Jarre). Harlequins
Enigma joins the accomplished ranks of Edgar Froese, Tangerine Dream, Jean Michel Jarre, and Kitaro as an innovative musician and "reverse supporter of forced schizophrenia politics." As a thinker and philanthropist, Åge wholeheartedly supports Dyrebeskyttelsen Norway and Amnesty International. Harlequins Enigma's albums and downloads can be purchased on CD Baby and Amazon.
