Guest Trancers303 Posted May 30, 2000 Share Posted May 30, 2000 Asia 2001 - RA Artist: Asia 2001 Title: RA Label: Trans'Pact Date: 1995 Track listing: 01. 08'53" Rotopod 02. 07'31" Paradise Island 03. 06'52" Planetarium 04. 06'31" Angel Ice 05. 06'17" Ultime Sens 06. 06'12" Dawn To Dusk 07. 09'08" Cyborg Culture 08. 08'06" R?E/b> 09. 07'05" Lunar Attraction 10. 02'03" Epilogue Review: Martin Coopers debut album...A very nice one, melodic with good effects. Sounds very good in my ears, very uplifting but not like nitzhonot(CRAP!!!). Maybe a little old for Infected Mushroom listers but for you thats missing the old goa, this is something...Very good for home listening, in the car and in partys...7/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest theoremdesign[at]hotmail[dot]com Posted August 29, 2001 Share Posted August 29, 2001 In my opinion, this was one of his stronger albums, rotopod is an awesome daytime stomper, and lunar attraction has one of the best 303 lines that I have heard. I know that something released in 1995 is obviously going to sound "dated" six years later, but who gives a f..k! That sound will always live on...

Lost Buddha Posted June 22, 2006 Share Posted June 22, 2006 u and nitzhonot... ..ok , let get to the point , this album is awesome , loads of 303 effects , like ive heard some people says that this album sucks at the dance floor (specially that opinion from DJ´s) but imo this album blast at all times , just try and put cyborg culture or dawn to dusk on the loose and ull see people go mad . not to forget all the other tracks which are so carefully deep and melodic and great groove going on this album. this album is a jewel and is a lot different from all the next stuff from asia 2001 , this album is unique. FINAL SCORE : 10/10 GOAPPROVED. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pisquared Posted March 16, 2010 Share Posted March 16, 2010 I think Asia 2001 was pretty influential and ahead of their time. That said I like their later albums more... the songs on this are too messy, and have too much of the "video game music" feel. I don't think it's worth getting unless you're a collector. 2/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trance2MoveU Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 IMO this is an overrated album. Made in 95 it sounds simplistic compared to the rich and dynamic releases of today. Hell, even compared to some of his later work. Obviously technology has a lot to do with it, but I also believe it lacks the layers to give it depth and presence. With simplistic sample work and dated sounds it reveals its age. There is more of a drifting trancey feel rather than the storming goa presence on his other albums like Live or Ama-Zone. Even great tracks like Lunar Attraction have periods where there is a lack of activity. None of the tracks are bad, but like that old cigarette ad used to say... We've come a long way, baby.

oldschoolgoa Posted July 30, 2016 Share Posted July 30, 2016 really good goa trance! cyborg culture is freaking awesome ! this album has really good moments and weird soundscapes. nice flat kick and warm bassline not to hard in your ears or anything its smooth album most of the way and some hard banging songs somewhere in the middle. cyborg culture , dawn to dusk are probably most known songs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
