INFO:/> SVEN VÄTH .
Sven Väth is one of the world's most legendary DJs and club scene figures, notorious for his long DJ-sets and blinding energy. With a career spanning over two decades, he's gone a long way from his start in '82 to defining trance in the early 90's and presently creating a techno sound of his own.
Sven Väth is best known for what he accomplished during the 90's. With Väth as the visionary director, the labels Harthouse and Eye Q produced countless landmark classics of electronic music and defined the European club sound of their time. Among the gems are Väth's own best-selling concept albums "Accident in Paradise" and "The Harlequin, The Robot and the Ballet Dancer", which were followed later by "Fusion", "Contact" and "Fire" -albums.
Recently Sven Väth has been pushing quality sounds and refreshing the club life in Ibiza with his Cocoon Club at Amnesia. With Richie Hawtin as the second resident, the list of their guests is not unlike the "Techno's who's who": Mills, Heil, Rachmad, Cox, Hell, F.E.O.S., Bondzio, Bug, Carola, Liebing, Villalobos, Acquaviva, Lekebusch, Beyer, Rush, Wink, Rother, Weatherall, Fixmer, Ho, Mayer. After numerous Cocoon events around Germany this year sees also the opening of a new Cocoon Club venue in Frankfurt.
Still at the top of his game, Väth's current sound is an original mixture of modern club music, building from glitchy electronics to mindblowing techno with masterful skill.
This is Sven Väth's night. This is techno.
