Originally a techno producer, Martin’s long and illustrious career began way back in 1988 when he appeared with several tracks on the collection “Urban Acid” (released by, a sub-label of Polydor, Urban) that sold over 65.000 copies. He followed this by releasing several EPs with techno tracks, but in the early 90’s he changed his sound to trance.
In 1996 he released his first full-length album “Moment of Truth”, on the early trance label Concept in Dance, including several goa trance and melodic trance tracks, such as “Sugar Rush” which also was released as an EP, including the heavy goa anthem "Teleport", which instantly has become a classic.
Two years later in 1998, Martin released his second album “Earth Moving The Sun” on Paul Oakenfold's label Perfecto (East West). The mix of heavy goatrance and melodic trance tracks is still there, but the sound had become less techno influenced, more melodic based and experimental towards house.
Two EPs was released from this album, both melodic trance tracks; “The First Day (Horizon)” with vocals from Mark Gardener and “Vavoom!” including house remixes by De Niro.
In the year 2000 the third album “Teleportation” was released, on Dragonfly Records. Martin had returned to the label he left in the middle of the 90’s. "Teleport", "Sly-Ed", "Lunar Cycle" and "Neuro Tunnel" are tracks that were previously released and reappear on this album.
Martin had also returned a bit to the sound of his first album that is more techno influenced thicker and heavier.
The latest album “Interstate Highway” was released in 2003 on Dragonfly Records. The sound of his music had taken a radical change towards the psytrance scene, lighter grooves and transparent sounding textures.
After the release of “Interstate Highway” Martin had released a few stand alone tracks that only appears on compilations; “String Theory”, “Critical Mass”, “Dirty Trick”, and certainly more to come.
Martin has also remixed a lot of tracks through his career, some to mention; These Are The Days by Human Leauge, Schoneberg by Marmion, Moonraker by Disco Volante and Octopus by Art of Trance.

Teleport
Man With No Name Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is inherently purging. It makes a man a king.
* The Fly *
Man With No Name's song Teleport seems to borrow inspiration from the 1986 horror film The Fly, directed by David Cronenberg. The lyrics touch upon the themes of human teleportation and molecular decimation, both of which are integral to the plot of Cronenberg's movie. The concept of molecular decimation refers to the process of breaking down a solid object into its basic molecules, which can then be transported to another location and reconstituted. This process of breakdown and reformation is described as inherently purging and transformative, with the potential to make a man a king.
The reference to The Fly is indicated by the final line of the lyrics, which is a direct reference to the film. The singer, a scientist named Seth Brundle, is transformed into a monstrous half-human, half-fly hybrid after a teleportation experiment goes awry. The process of molecular breakdown and reformation is meant to result in instantaneous travel, but for Brundle, it leads to a terrifying metamorphosis. By referencing The Fly, Man With No Name suggests that the process of teleportation has the potential for both great power and great danger.

The process of human teleportation involves breaking down a person's molecular structure and reforming it in a new location.

This process can be seen as a way of purging oneself from their physical limitations and allowing them to be reconstructed in a new form.

By being able to teleport, a person can gain a sense of power and control over their own life, much like a king has power and control over his kingdom.

I've always considered MWNN as one of my 2 favourite goa trance producers ever and this track is one of the pinnacles of this genre.
Can't believe I'm finally going to meet this legend in 2 weeks in Brighton!
