1. Era (Enminential Rythmn of the Ancestors) (styled as eRa) is a New Age music project by French composer Eric Lévi. The band has sold more than 12 million albums. They use lyrics (by Guy Protheroe) which although similar to Greek or Latin are in fact deliberately devoid of any exact meaning.
Era mixes Gregorian chants and occasionally world music with contemporary electronic arrangements. It is reminiscent of New Age music projects such as Enigma, Gregorian, and Deep Forest. Era lyrics are written in Pseudo-Latin, as well as in English. Some of them are based on beliefs of the 13th century French Christian sect, the Cathars.
Era's live shows and music videos often feature artists dressed in medieval or traditional clothes and armour. Most usually, actors Pierre Bouisierie and Irene Bustamante perform at Era shows.
"As a rule, I try to avoid copying musical styles which are imposed by epochs and cultures; I am always on the lookout for strong emotions; the sort that accompany an epic film. In fact, I am writing music for a film which has not yet been made!" says Eric Levi.
Eric Lévi (real name Eric Jacques Levisalles), born 1955 in Paris, France, is a musician. In 1975 Eric Lévi founded the hard rock band Shakin' Street with Fabienne Shine, which would release the two albums Vampire Rock and Solid as a Rock. Shakin' Street briefly toured with AC/DC and the Blue Öyster Cult before disbanding in 1981. He then moved to New York, and back to Paris in 1992. Later on in his career, Eric Lévi wrote the musical score to several movies, including L'Opération Corned-beef and the comedy Les Visiteurs which was an international success and one of the highest grossing movies of all time in France.
Lévi is best known for being the mastermind behind the musical project ERA, and for inventing the Latin sounding words of these songs.
Era's self-titled debut album in 1997 proved to be a hit, becoming the most exported French album with over 6 million copies sold. A sequel, Era 2 was released in 2000, followed by Era: The Mass in 2003. The trilogy is characterized by a mixture of rock, synth, and pseudo-Latin Gregorian chant.
In 1999, he moved to London, where he lives today.

The lyrics of Era's song Era describe a society that values comfort, conformity, and banality over complexity and intellectualism. The song criticizes the pseudo-intellectualism and superiority complex of those who embrace ignorance and simplicity, as well as the consumption of alcohol and the glorification of violence. The song also comments on the influence of popular culture and social media on society, particularly the superficiality of Instagram and the influence of media outlets like Telecinco. Overall, the song seems to warn against the dangers of blindly embracing societal norms and urges listeners to see beyond the surface level and embrace their own individuality.
The use of gorras (caps) and pseudo divas pop (fake pop divas) suggest a sense of superficiality and lack of depth in the society being described. Meanwhile, the phrase "violencia sin control" (violence without control) and "naturaleza en selección" (nature in selection) hint at a society that is not sustainable in the long-term, possibly even suggesting a dystopian future where violence and nature are in constant conflict.
One interesting fact about this song is that it was released in 1996 as the title track of Era's debut album. The song quickly became a hit in France, where it topped the charts for several weeks. Another interesting fact is that Era is a musical project created by French composer Eric Lévi, who is known for his use of Gregorian chants in his music. In fact, Era's music has been described as a fusion of New Age and Gregorian chant elements with modern pop and rock music.
