Description: | Catharsis is Sven VaÌ?th's first solo album in almost 20 years, and the 50th album to be released
on his incomparable label, Cocoon Recordings. Produced alongside Gregor Tresher, it arrives on
the 25th February 2022 and is a musical autobiography that charts Svenâ??s most extraordinary life
in techno. In the studio, Sven has always been just as unique. He has worked under several
aliases but always brought a fresh perspective. Whether securing chart hits as part of OFF in the
eighties, serving up brutalist techno and trance-tinged sounds in the nineties or crafting major
label albums in the 2000s, his music has remained utterly forward-looking. That legacy continues
with â??Catharsisâ?? as Sven teams up with highly respected producer Gregor Tresher for his latest
long-form offering. Tresher has long been part of the Cocoon family and is a revered artist in
his own right; when the two got together in the studio, it was clear they had an instant
connection, and there would only be one person fit to co-author this LP.
It is a record inspired by Sven's interest in the physical and spiritual processes that take
place when we dance. "They are realms into which we immerse ourselves to experience our own
mysticism and ecstasy," he muses. "Dancing is a conversation between body and soul and it
spiritually connects us with each other." Of course, because of the pandemic, that is a feeling
that we all missed out on for so long. "No dancing, no paradise!" says Sven. "My imagination for
this record was fueled by the many cultural experiences and encounters I have had in my life.
They gave me the strength to find a way, the way to myself." And that way to himself is through
music, through purifying dancing rituals and the exchange of spiritual energies that are
generated in the club. The thirteen-track album explores all facets of Sven's sound. - 2022 release.
