En-Tact is an album by The Shamen, released in 1990. It was the first Shamen album to feature Mr C, and the last to feature Will Sinnott (who died on 23 May 1991). It tends to fuse the ideas of their past psychedelic rock sounds with the rave act it became, making it quite techno-tribal and positively primal.
