[deleted] Frankfurt-based Sven Väth is co-founder of the Cocoon label, and this is his mix presentation of the sounds at the Ibiza Cocoon Club in its eighth season, 2007. Besides the success of the Season series during the last seven years, Cocoon and Cocoon Recordings look back at a highly successful year since the Closing Party of 2006. The eighth season -- themed "Freakshow" -- broke all records, boosting both the number of visitors and the level of party spirit to staggering new heights. Legendary nights, incredible DJ sets, live gigs and Sven Väth, who was in top form during the whole summer. Also, the official Freakshow CD by André Galluzzi and Raresh provided a taste of what was to come from the two summer resident DJs, to get everyone ready. On the eighth edition of this series, one can also find -- besides the big, solid hits of the Cocoon summer -- some new wild youngsters, who not only keep the wheel turning, but give it even more drive. Tolga Fidan is a new favorite who appears for the second time, the Greek-British newcomer Argy is also part of the Ibiza retrospective, as well as new solo artist and techno figurehead, Martin Buttrich. Jamie Jones also represents the young generation of techno and house along with brave mastermind, Pepe Bradock. Sven Väth doesn't give his opinion of what techno was, is or might be; rather, he delivers the soundtrack with a certain concept of life in mind: breaking conventions and keeping his eyes and ears constantly open. Other artists include: Radical Majik, John Spring, The Amazing, Plan Tec, J.T.C., Steve Rachmad, Joris Voorn, Worthy, Chrom, Fausto Messina & Dariush, Alter Ego, Junior Boys, Paulo Olarte, René Et Gaston, Alejandro Vivanco, Mark August and Chaton.
