Sven Väth has revealed the all-star line-up that will accompany him at Cocoon in Ibiza this summer.
What with it being Sven's tenth year on the island with his Cocoon night, he's pulled out all the stops as far as bookings are concerned, hosting some of the most in-demand house and techno DJs on the scene every week. As with previous years, Cocoon will take place on Monday nights at Amnesia, and will open its doors for the first time on June 15th with
Ricardo Villalobos and
Cassy alongside Cocoon's own
Chris Tietjen. This might seem like a staggering opening line-up, but Väth has plenty of nights like this planned for the summer, with no less than seven scheduled appearances from Ricardo, and three each for
Luciano and
Richie Hawtin.
Hawtin's M_nus label even get to take over the club for their
own label night on September 21st, featuring live performances from
Gaiser and
Click Box, as well as regular DJ sets from
Magda,
Barem and Hawtin himself. Other guests featured at Cocoon over the season include
Loco Dice,
Josh Wink,
DJ Sneak (who may very well repeat his back-to-back session with Villalobos),
Federico Molinari,
Marco Carola,
Zip,
Livio & Roby,
Markus Fix and
Raresh, whilst
Martin Buttrich,
Reboot and
Guillaume & The Coutu Dumonts will all play live. The booking policy for this year's Cocoon may be big, brash and outlandish, but to be fair, we wouldn't expect anything else from ringmaster Sven.
