Author's note

Enigmatic Bold by Darren Rigby of Starving-4 Entertainment is a free geometric sans serif with a heavy, compact silhouette. Broad strokes and tight joins give the letters a dense, almost block-built construction. Rounded curves soften the dense shapes.

It is particularly suited to poster headlines, where its dark forms establish a firm look for entertainment launches, club nights, or public events. That same compact weight also suits music merchandise, arcade game graphics, and packaging built around an assertive contemporary product label.

Description
I created this font in FCP's thirty day trial. Since then it's undergone a number of renovations, and it's looking pretty good.
