1998

In 1998 a continuation of single releases from the TAAW album "The Energy of Sound" were the only music from Cretu for this year. Compared to all of the following years this seemed to be a hiatus for Cretu. Plans had been made in 1997 for the complete re-construction of the A.R.T. Studios within the Cretu house in Ibiza. The transformation actually took place in the spring of 1998. Designed by Cretu with Gunter Wagner of Supersonic Communications / Australia , this unique studio featues an amazing consol which had it's own built-in keyboard. Gunter Wagner designed the studio so that there is - with the exception of the computers mouse - no visible cable's in the studio.

The second single was "Chase" - written by Giorgio Moroder ; and the CD has the number 7243 8 948152 5 - DINSD169 - PM 515 and was released in early Febuary. The third CD-single was "Crockett's Theme" - written by Jan Hammer - with the number 7243 8 94838 2 6 - DMSD171 - PM 515 was released in the summer period of this year.

Michael Cretu ~ " There's two hearts in my chest, too. One, the judge, the producer really, the other the artist. It seems I'm able to flick the switch between the two pretty well and effectively still."
