Guest Skytrancer Posted April 10, 2000 Share Posted April 10, 2000 Asia 2001 - Strange World Artist: Asia 2001 Title: Strange World Label: Trans'Pact Date: 1996 Track listing: 01. 07'36" Strange World 02. 07'58" Lokayatikas 03. 06'14" 7ème Symbol 04. 07'43" The Prayer 05. 08'53" Processor 06. 07'11" Life Storm 07. 06'36" Cyborg 08. 07'05" Buddha Compation Review: A really good CD from a group composed by Martin Cooper and Toires and Tajmahal. It sounds a little old compared to groups like Infected Mushroom or Yahel... But all the tracks are pretty good best tracks are 1 and 5. My advice his to buy it . 8/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Snow Dog Posted July 16, 2000 Share Posted July 16, 2000 I agree. The best tracks are definitely #1, Lokayakitas, and #5, Processor. But you know what? They're all really good! A little simpler than most psychedelic releases, closer to the Israeli sound (they're French), but in the end their minimalist style pays off. All tracks feature a great, manic arpeggiated bassline, and their riffs can be HUGE. Good stuff, I give this an 8 out of 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest davidtolsn Posted May 3, 2001 Share Posted May 3, 2001 horrible! i expected a good cd after reading these reviews. these songs are all mind-numbingly bad, except the last one is tolerable. repetitive, cheesy,.. the fact that it's old doesn't excuse annoying sounds. 1/10. DON'T BUY IT! if you insist on getting an asia 2001 cd, get dreamland or amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goa Travellers Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 "Lokayatikas" is a terrific tune! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trance2MoveU Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 I'm not the guy that's going to sh*t all over the early work of such an important artist in goa trance. Not gonna be me. But this does sound dated in the year 2013. Sounds thin...like it needs more ingredients. But what they did was stick to a futuristic alien theme that is palpable. There are a few great tracks to be found here. Por ejemplo...Buddha Compation is a good old fashioned 303 beat down that screams the whole way through. 7eme has a dark eerieness in it that made me feel like I was lost in a foreign land. Lokayatikas is the star with that instantly recognizable section in the middle and the title track is also worth mentioning. Not their best output, but this project had yet to hit their stride.
