Alongside sven väths "sound of the season"-series the
letter compilations are cocoon recording's most
anticipated product. they express väth's view on the
current state of club music. months before the season
starts, sven väth and cocoon recordings' label manager
pauli steinbach meet up to discuss who are the producers
who's music excites them most right now. the selected
musicians are invited to contribute to the compilation. the
result is released in a limited box of six coloured vinyls and
as a cd. each of the tracks unfolds on a side of its own, the
artist is introduced with a short portrait. connecting
cocoon's activities to the diverse club music scenes from all
over the globe, the twelve tracks work as a multifaceted
manifesto for cocoon's activities of the upcoming summer.
the h compilation promises an exciting season: each track
sounds special and unique and yet all the artists share a
collective acoustic vision. they develop a stirringly euphoric
rave sound with a 'housy' subtlety. each track is a different
stage in a mutual journey through the artificial paradise of
electronic sound. the spectrum of the featured artists
covers esteemed musicians and upcoming artists from the
likes of: joris voorn, oliver ho or len faki appear
alongside simon baker, mark august or matt star.
