Details

Amnesia is the 7th album from Asia 2001.What makes it so special is the fact that it was created as a souvenir album that concludes 10 years of activity for Asia 2001 (Martin Cooper).On this lovingly created double CD are 21 pearls from different stages of Asia 2001. Martin Cooper is a talented producer from the south of France who started his musical carrier in 1989 as Loren-X.A few years later he formed Transpact with DJ Thaisha. The two have an impressive discography on their record as Transpact, having released over 50 12 vinyls and albums. They have managed to grab a great deal of attention in the French and European markets, premiering releases from such as Spectral and Transwave.Martin Cooper has inspired musicians in France, Belgium and the UK, functioning as an influential source, and received recognition from top artists and DJs who have approached him from multiple direction with requests for collaboration. A pioneer who has contributed a great deal in establishing the term Goa Trance back in the 90s aside acts like Total Eclipse and Juno Reactor.His music is played by every DJ that respects himself, and he has gigged with leading names like Laurent Garnier, Carl Cox, Paul Van Dyke, Jeff Miles and Sven Vath, to name a few. He played in numerous events and festivals including Berlins love parade, and his sets have made headlines in south east Asia and New York, where Jennifer Lopez gave him the warm-up in the Tunnel. We have managed to gather here some of his most precious recordings, some released on rare and unavailable Transpact compilations, studio cuts, remixes and some tracks that were kept hidden and never saw the light of day, presented here for the very first ever.On the album we find postcards, like Nomads of the Future, Strange World and Ra, tracks that no party was complete without, as well as remixes for Orion and Vertige, and collaborations with Damien, DJ Anti, Avichay and Toires. Avi Algranati is in charge of assembling this tribute and has remixed the everlasting Dreamland, that is one of the biggest hits from Asia 2001.Martin Cooper has stayed faithful to his style for all these years and did not surrender to mainstream, holding a record of releases on numerous prestigious labels such as; F-Com, Distance, Sony, Polygram, Koyote and more. Ama Zone was the first album he released on Avatar back in 1997, and was actually the first trance release to come out locally in interesting territories such as India, Taiwan, Nepal and Sri Lanka, achieving a great deal of interest there. This is the 4th album of ASIA 2001 on Avatar. The first pressing is as a special limited edition that comes with a poster inlay that is worth killing for...!
