On the Spanish summer party capital of Ibiza everybody these days is talking about the German Tech House miracle: Cocoon, the Cocoon Clubs in Frankfurt and Ibiza, but also DJs like Ricardo Villalobos, Richie Hawtin, André Galluzzi, Tobi Neumann and many more - all of them are now 'calling the tune', and similarly as with Acid House at the beginning of the Nineties, Ibiza is again the springboard. However, with the slight but important difference that here, something was built up over seven years, without external hypes and vast media coverage, not an overnight success, no S-Express but a continuously growing House and Techno party culture. The sound and the vibe of the early Love Parades, Love Parks, Green & Blues, the Omen and so on... Cocoon was there!
"Finally", you could almost say. The world is listening. What is happening in Germany? What kind of scene is this? Why is so much damn great music coming from here? Well, it is like it is, and for many of us, it has always been like that anyway. And one man was there from the very beginning: Sven Väth! Here we present a mix from Sven himself to celebrate the launch of his latest Cocoon Ibiza album, 'The Sound of the Seventh Season' and to give us a taste of what to expect at Cocoon Ibiza 2007.
