"Like 1984, 2001 is a date that recalls classic outlooks to a future that we're leaving behind. While Martin Damm has always enjoyed playing with retro elements particularly in his electro works, his game has never been so refined, veering off in multiple uncharted directions yet always clinging to a foothold in abandoned futures. As a result, a detached melancholy pervades the album, which offers a variety of scope that can only be called cinematic and a particular rhythmic inventiveness stretching far into uneven grounds, all presented in clear and richly detailed production that is the author's trademark. Complete with his subtle, teasing humour, the whole approach of Martin Damm is a rare one. Ignoring the innocent soundtrack-of-my-life requirements that define the pop of the day, and oblivious to the taboos of cool, it provides us with the most truthful mirror possible, a short but bright glimpse into the ongoing collective dream of future that never happens."
