Cocoon Recordings goes into overdrive with the next installment of their legendary compilation series. Love Over Entropy gets the ball rolling with "As If", offering up smooth, Mediterranean vibes designed to stimulate heart-felt communication. Stimming's "The Gift That Never Stops To Give" continues in a low-slung, tribal vein peppered with jazzed-out, tubular percussion as the psychedelics gently take hold. John Talabot and Axel Boman, aka Talaboman, not only win the most bombastic track name of the year competition, but do a good job living up to it on "Big Room Anthemic Groovy Pounding Trance Dub Bomb. Superb!" The extended intro delivers a heightened sense of anticipation, as gentle bleeps, angular trance riffs and weird frequency oscillations toast the synapses. Emanuele Satie's "Planet XXX" is a perfectly balanced tech house groover, climaxing with an ecstatic breakdown. "End Days" from Edward then ups the ante with a metallic, new beat vibe that swamps you in wild analog noise before the deep brooding pads take over. Analog squiggles dominate the opening exchanges on Florian Hollerith's "KURZVOR12" as the soundsystem starts pounding relentlessly into the early hours. A strong head is certainly required under pressure from the hypnotic, rasping synth lines. Raxon gets things rolling on "The Turbulent" with electric hi-hats snaking through a dense mesh of banging snares that accompany a morphing acid line. "Jaded" then takes you into the realms of full-on industrial techno as Mark Broom transports you back to the genre's mid-90s heyday. Egbert ramps up the distortion on "Tering" with a flapping sub bass, played out across heavenly vox pads and acid washes. As you enter the final straight, "Keep Changing Basslines" from Italian maestro Dino Lenny journeys deeper stil006C, before it unfurls to reveal a myriad of arpeggiating synth and bass lines as the vocal sample of the title suggests. Deep, thoughtful and intelligent, there's also a hint of retro rave culture thrown in for good measure. Neil Landstrumm then takes us to Casio heaven on "Flesh Is A Prison", utilizing crisp sound that carries a laser-guided sting in the tail before Red Axes close things out with "Hevk". A long, spacey intro and more razor-edged riffs that morph and stutter perfectly encapsulate everything that has gone before.

"Holocene" by Apir & Justin Marchacos is top-notch melodic techno, an electronic soundscape of epic proportions, built for a huge soundsystem and best experienced under cover of a warm, balmy summer night. Deep space exploration "The Fifth" sees a warm, percolating, arpeggiated bass line act as the driving force on this stripped-down excursion, while gentle automation lends a crackling neon glow to proceedings.

Cocoon has never been shy about pitching curve balls to the crowd. It also has an instinct for knowing what they want, even before the label does! So here is the label with both these concepts in full effect in the form of International Anything's Running In The Underwood. Markus Nikolai and Ole Schulte's fledgling project has already featured on both Cocoon and Nikolai's ubiquitous Perlon imprint and the Frankfurt/Berlin axis represented by these two heavyweight labels is perfectly encapsulated in this "summer anthem in the making". Includes a Michael Mayer remix.

Florian Hollerith presents Perlas on Cocoon. On "Perlas", he works from the inside out with complex layers creating a vortex of sound, a sonic mesh that's playful yet dangerous. "Love Summer" adds a contemporary twist to the melodic joys that drenched the early '90s in pure ecstasy. The soulful vocals soothe the mind as horn stabs punctuate the sensual groove, generating power and passion in equal measures. More retro futurism abound on "Electro Indianer" as arpeggiated bleeps usher in another vast, sprawling soundscape designed to induce a collective trance on the dancefloor.

Seasoned producer Oliver Kapp takes you back to the glory days of underground techno where pounding sound systems ruptured the space time continuum for fun. "Mantash" is an altogether gentler excursion. Loose tribal rhythms slalom through metronomic kicks. Euphoria and delirium combine on the aptly titled "Rapture", as chopped-up vocal FX alternate across a hard-hitting 909 pattern. "Loud Whisper" is both tough and relentless, generating a hypnotic state. The fluid, rolling grooves of "Sketch" then conclude proceedings in a flurry of delayed percussion lines that skim the surface while pressure builds from below.

Legowelt's "Disco Rout" first surfaced in 2002. The electro revival that had ushered in the new millennium was in full swing and this was to prove a seminal tune, being voted track of the year by Groove magazine. As if to prove a point the bass line still grabs the moment it drops, while the laser-guided melodies feel as relevant today as they ever did. Now with this limited hand-stamped whitelabel Dutch master Benny Rodriguez aka ROD steps up under his new Younger Rebinds alias with even more intensity than demonstrated on Sound Of Benny (RB 073EP, 2018).

Johannes Volk's second release on Cocoon Recordings continues his tonal references to the origins of techno in a highly unique style. "Nevergreen", with its driving sequencer synth, is a furious and mechanical workout with a harsh industrial vibe and unbelievable string textures will shake the dancefloor to its foundations. On "Awareness", Volk conjures up an unforgettably romantic soundscape without sacrificing any energy. After a solid minute, the foggy horizon opens up to one of those rare yet incredibly valuable moments, when you suddenly want to embrace the whole world from inside the club.

To celebrate the turn of the year, Cocoon Recordings presents the fifth edition of the Dots & Pearls anthology, which has been offering an exclusive glimpse into Cocoon's treasure trove of demos at irregular intervals since 2011. Once again, the eight tracks on show represent a comprehensive snapshot of the current state of club music as 2018 fades into 2019, combining established stars of the scene with eye-catching newcomers to create a harmonious overall package. First up is Berlin production team youANDme, who have been an integral part of the capital's club life for over ten years as well as running the Rotary Cocktail label. Their epic floor filler "Claret Loss" kicks off the compilation with a refreshingly reduced yet deep tech-house showpiece as the "ear circus" begins. In fact, that's the name of the next track by promising debutant Florian Hollerith. "Ohrenzirkus" amazes with a bone-dry bass drum accompanied by an insect squadron and atonal orchestra horns. Little wonder that this bold homage with its sonic claim to immortality also takes pride of place on Sven Väth's Sound of the 19th Season (CORMIX 059CD). Geneva based, Cadenza producer Quenum then reels in the acoustic madness with the elegant, metallic percussion of "Blue Mountain", while Croatian mastermind Petar Dundov takes the listener into a highly emotional state of weightlessness with the typically anthemic "Pyroelectric". Next, Systematic label boss Marc Romboy scores with "Sequential Error", a perpetually growing ball of energy that lights the way to the dancefloor. In the midst of the mayhem, Italian newcomer Blackrachas offers up a slice of Mediterranean serenity with his snare opus "Paracasta", while veteran DJ and producer Emanuele Inglese from Rome demonstrates his special expertise for dancefloor hedonism with a flurry of modulated sequential breaks on the track "Rain". Finally, Bastian Bux of Barcelona-based label Suara, who recently also featured on John Digweed's Bedrock imprint, offers a fitting finale to the compilation with the melodic techno hymn "Inner You". Dots & Pearls 5 is set to be an indispensable part of your life.

Pig&Dan return to their roots, Cocoon Recordings with Reset Your Bassline. Nine years on, Dan Duncan and Igor Tchkotoua have lost none of their sixth sense for moving the crowd as this uncluttered yet devilishly effective dancefloor double-header proves. "Reset Your Bassline" couldn't be more appropriately named, revealing itself with a powerful, pumping bass and tightly programmed vocal samples. An indispensable addition to this autumn's set list, "Lost Another Angel" delivers with a pure dose of after-hour bliss. It's a playful Balearic technodub with a canny sense for an unforgettable melody at sunrise, conjuring up broad smiles on glowing faces.

Sven Väth returns with another volume of In The Mix: The Sound Of The 19th Season. To this day, Väth represents the electronic music scene like no other DJ. In the nineties he was mentor and shaman, operating from Frankfurt and introducing us to the world of electronic music. After these crazy, extroverted years, Väth created the Cocoon family as a global platform for he and his colleagues´s activities. Väth has always been for the scene "Baba", which means dad in Hessian dialect. Today he is the "Baba" for a new generation of DJs; music is not about strategizing your niche potential. It does not matter if a tune is approved by the opinion makers. It's about what you feel personally and what you can create with the music in your work as a DJ. To this day, Väth manages to play tracks that you wouldn't expect and puts them in a context you would not expect either. Like no one else he succeeds in arranging the entire electronic music cosmos, from restrained deep house to euphoric techno into one, amazing narrative. Besides Frankfurt, Ibiza is Väth's musical home. After 18 years at Club Amnesia, he and his Cocoon crew moved to Pacha to start a new chapter on the seminal island. You don´t get a clue from In The Mix: The Sound Of The 19th Season if he had some trouble finding his way in the new location. The season of 2018 is over, but Väth gives us no time for wistful feelings. After the furious closing of Ibiza in October, he retreats to his Ayurveda ritual. Then he sets off for the Sound Of The Season tour which takes him to South America, among other destinations. After New Year's Eve, he vacations in Asia, taking in inspirations. He will let the season of 2018 pass in his inner mind's eye devising a plan how to celebrate the 20th anniversary of Cocoon on Ibiza with the crazy that he will cook up! Features: Nightmares On Wax, Love Over Entropy, Adam Port, Emanuel Satie, Florian Hollerith, Talaboman, Levon Vincent, Vermont, Edward, L.B. Dub Corp, DJ Shufflemaster and Chester Beatty, Patrice Bäumel, Red Axes, Nicolas Masseyeff, Tom Pooks and Joy Kitikonti, Butch, Fabrice Lig, Robag Wruhme, Stimming, Ejeca, Radio Slave, Ilario Alicante, Anna, Michael Mayer, Younger Rebinds, and Krystal Klear.

Triple LP version. Extrawelt are Arne Schaffhausen and Wayan Raabe. Both have been around for about 40 years, and making music together for half that time. They enjoy normal things and are ashamed of their carbon footprints due to the large number of flights they take to bring them to their gigs. Unknown is the tenth studio album from the producer team, and the fourth under the name Extrawelt; it's largely devoted to another side of their creations. Extrawelt releases always have been somehow different yet, despite becoming instantly absorbed into the familiar Extrawelt atmosphere when listening, one can't help but notice something's very different. Feet are bouncing, the mind is traveling; one imagines what it would be like to listen to Unknown with closed eyes in the midst of a throbbing concert instead of through laptop speakers. Listening to Extrawelt on crappy speakers is anyway never a good idea; leave the confines of a lo-fi laptop world and get in the car. Crank up the stereo, and cruise around aimlessly, lost in an appreciation of the music. One has the urge to speed up, even if one is usually a very sensible driver, the bass and beats blowing up in one's face. This is something undeniably Extrawelt, yet inherently different to what we've come to expect from the Hamburg pair. Something about this twelve-track journey fits together so superbly it's hard not to be overcome with at least a few shivers up the spine. With profound bass lines and cutting drums, one keeps coming back to these sounds, again and again. Whether this is exotic or native doesn't matter; all that matters is it's great, and it isn't techno! Somehow, Extrawelt have accomplished staying true to themselves despite deploying not even one four-to-the floor-bass drum. Admittedly, one can find a couple of similar tracks on a few of their previous releases, but here is got a whole album full of it. What genre of music is this actually? Neo-Electro? Alternative Electronica? Emo-EDM?? These guys don't like to be put into boxes; it's simply Extrawelt. The tracks on Unknown began simmering more than ten years ago without any goal or idea regarding if they'd end up releasing them. This explains how Unknown appeared so quickly after their most recent album, Fear Of An Extra Planet (COR 041 CD/LP, 2017).

On the occasion of the 19th year of Cocoon's residency on Ibiza, the location may have changed from Amnesia to Pacha, but the enthusiasm for perhaps the most enduring party on the Mediterranean island is guaranteed to continue. Actually, only the sun, sea and wind are more reliable! The celebrated live sets of Bulgaria's livewire Strahil Velchev aka KiNK have been a vital ingredient for the ecstatic nights over the years. With unprecedented regularity, the man from Sofia has been voted best live act by readers of Groove magazine for the last three years, and in 2017 he was also crowned best electronic music producer. As KiNK, together with Sven Väth, he now celebrates one of the most popular evenings of this year's season as well, and what could be more logical than to repurpose the famed Cocoon Ibiza Mix series into another live document of the event? No sooner said than done, here the Bulgarian offers a 70-minute cross-section of his skills. Well-known tracks, especially from Playground (RB 010CD/LP, 2017) meet exclusive, unreleased material in a spontaneous tour de force through the history of electronic dance music. There are distinctive nods to Chicago and Detroit, jazzy organs spiraling into string-drenched skies ("The Russian"), insatiable acid excursions ("Five") and heavy-duty discoid workouts ("Use The Rhythm", "Perth") as KiNK's irresistible nature strikes repeatedly at the heart of the dance floor. The message as always is "gute Laune!" (good vibes), if one is allowed to borrow that sacred phrase for just a moment.

Berlin producer Kevin De Vries has emerged as one of the capital's most hotly tipped newcomers. De Vries's debut for Cocoon is characterized by significantly higher levels of impulsive energy without ever losing sight of his instinctive feel for harmony. "Meraki" speckles shimmering harmonic textures over the structured bass end, reminiscent of sunlight reflecting on turbulent seas -- absolutely perfect for dancing through long summer nights! "Sonorous", featuring Weska, orchestrates a tropical heatwave before the cyclical after-hour techno of "My Blurred Dream" brilliantly rounds off this heavy duty three-tracker.

Berlin-based American Kevin McHugh, aka Ambivalent, is definitely no stranger to the scene. Together with Dutch Clone-producer Martijn Hoogendijk, aka Alden Tyrell, Ambivalent has cooked up another serving of straightforward techno complete with rigorous hi-hats, which will no doubt summon up the uncompromising energy of his Berghain sets. With its powerful incantation of sequential rave signals, "Wallfall" recalls the best days of Jeff Mills in the form of ultra-modern Detroit-oriented premium techno, while "Détente" lays disconcerting industrial distortion over expansive dub-techno for maximum acceleration. The perfect fix for hot nights of celebration.

An integral member of the Cocoon family, Ilario Alicante has become a regular at Cocoon Ibiza, elrow and DC10 during his career so far. Comprised of the title track, a cosmic production packed with synth-laced flutters, and the more dancefloor-ready "Scelta", Ilario showcases his eclectic nature across the release. Using a high tempo, the Italian then rounds off the EP with the deeply atmospheric "Sensa", with the latter's rattles adding an intense nature to the production.

For some time now, Cocoon have been connecting with Tuscany through the legendary Cocoon events at the Tini Soundgarden in Cecina and since 2017, JA:CK has also joined their Tuscany vision. Cocoon present two new tracks by the Tuscan artist. Dry and grainy, they still come across house-y and sexy and, to put it properly in the picture, JA:CK's called the release "Paprika" -- short and crisp, red hot, and spicy.

Rico Puestel is a phenomenon and currently one of the best artists around when it comes to solid, discerning techno. Puestel's two current Cocoon contributions "Equity" and "Immunised" are strongly reminiscent of Caravel, which was released on Cocoon Recordings in 2017 (COR 146EP). The mini breaks and prolonged dramatic pauses are all pieces in the puzzle of Puestel's arrangement and together with the hypnotic beats and constantly radiating synths and effects, they make up his own interpretation of techno sound.

6x12" version; Comes on exclusive fluorescent vinyl which glow in the dark and create a "magical" effect while played in club; Includes CD; Edition of 500. Cocoon presents R! Few other DJs embody the ability to "think outside the box" like Frankfurt's honorary citizen and Cocoon head Sven Väth, whether he's dropping Sade's version of "Why Can't We Live Together" to close out the night or ushering in Monday morning with The Bangles' "Just Another Manic Monday". Of course Sven and Cocoon are also synonymous with techno, nevertheless, it's worth looking back over the last few years of Cocoon's output to realize strict style guidelines and exaggerated pigeonholing no longer apply. It's especially true for the compilation series, which having now reached the letter R, impressively shows the arc the Frankfurt label's output continues to span. From soft and melodic with a lot of depth to highly functional and extremely crisp -- there's a creative range on offer that very few labels can boast. Sven Väth: "I listen to and play everything that I like and that touches me. I always pack a genre-spanning record bag, I'm particularly interested in those special tracks." The current compilation, R, not only continues this idea, it is a prime example of the label's philosophy. The illustrious circle of artists on the latest compilation is peppered with such prominent names as Isoleé, Lusine, Pig&Dan, Inigo Kennedy, Ambivalent & Alden Tyrell, ROD, and Mano Le Tough. Label representative and Frankfurt original Ingo Boss is once again on board and with contributions from International Anything, John Heckle, Cristi Cons, and Eduardo De La Calle, promising new faces from further afield are also represented. Of course, all this doesn't say much about the actual content, but that's exactly what it's about. Known vs. unknown, origins, discography etc., it's not important on this collection. Cocoon delivers what the label stands for and what it does best: promoting new artists, bringing celebrity names on board and above all, not building any musical walls either on or off the dancefloor. With releases like this, it's clear to us that the journey is ongoing and the wheel will continue to spin.

Here is an original from the exceptional producer Butch, accompanied by a remix from none other than Kölsch. On the original Butch implements a "nasty" arpeggio line that captivates you before being hunted down by a prime-time filter, summoning up a 303-less acid monster. With poise and purpose like the Lamborghini of the same name, Kölsch takes you on an epic journey with his remix here, but as things progress he still has the foresight to jams on the brakes, keeping the dancefloor honest by slowing things down to cruise control.

Tim Green returns to Cocoon with his atmospheric and emotive album titled Her Future Ghost. Surprisingly, after all this time, this 11-track production is his first ever album in his career. Her Future Ghost is effectively composed similar to an electronic romantic film soundtrack: "My concept and direction for Her Future Ghost was to write a film score for a film that doesn't actually exist." says Tim. "As an avid film score lover, I wanted to create a body of work that took certain traits from common film score practices. For example, different themes that repeat throughout, like character themes that evolve and mutate. As well as a narrative and story that develops through the music. In my mind the story is set in the future, based around two people, a couple. It based on another planet, a planet so distorted and corrupted in comparison to the world we know now. Essentially they are trying to flee and stay alive in a future society where it is impossible to stay under the radar, where they have to go to extreme lengths not be caught and put into the same system and society as everyone else on this planet." The album concept was further influenced by the work of Ahmed Emad Eldin, an Egyptian digital artist who is best known for his design on Pink Floyd's 2014 album The Endless River. Tim reached out personally to the artist, and the two collaborated on the cover art for Her Future Ghost. Tim first made his production debut on four:twenty in 2006, going on to release on Dirtybird and Get Physical, before Cocoon tapped the young producer for his first EP on the label in 2011 (COR 088EP). Whilst the prolific studio head has continued to experiment on other respected labels, Cocoon and Sven Vath have helped Tim's productions reach the biggest dancefloors in Ibiza and across the globe. A fiery live DJ, Green has been tapped by Sven Vath to play at Cocoon events around the globe as well as solo at some of the world's most respected clubs. Whilst Tim Green's prowess at moving dancefloors was never in question, the release of Her Future Ghost shows the talented producer spreading his wings and pushing himself to fulfill his creative potential -- this is just the beginning of a new and exciting chapter of Green's career.
