::| |::
::| October 26, 1964 |::
::| Sven is born in Obertshausen near Frankfurt. |::
::| The years before 1982 |::
::| Adolescence transforms "little Sven" into an entertainer, whose |::
::| experiences, adventures and impressions dominate the next years. |::
::| 1982 |::
::| The Dorian Gray club - from regular patron to discjockey. Here, Sven's |::
::| career begins with Soul oldies and High Energy during the "New |::
::| Romantics" period. Freaky costumes and selfacknowledged narcissism are |::
::| Sven's main characteristics in the midst of the new "lifestyle" |::
::| aesthetics of the Eighties. |::
::| 1983 |::
::| The "other" club on the scene at this time, the Vogue. Sven plays |::
::| diverse styles, beginning to move further and further away from the |::
::| mainstream. Champagne splashing through the air and reckless excesses |::
::| unusual in the pre-Techno period were an omen for the location's next |::
::| chapter in history. |::
::| 1984 |::
::| Sven is now permanent DJ at the Vogue on weekends. His army of fans is |::
::| growing rapidly from week to week. Typical mainstream disco music can |::
::| only be heard early in the evening. American club underground |::
::| repertoire makes its way into his bag. |::
::| 1986 |::
::| Still being DJ in the Vogue club, Sven starts making a name as a party |::
::| master for himself on an international level. He works in Ibiza and |::
::| after his return to Frankfurt, he produces his debut project, OFF and |::
::| the Stan Ridgeway inspired single "Bad News" (for Bellaphon), with |::
::| Michael Mⁿnzing and Luca Anzilotti (later to form Snap / Logic |::
::| Records). This makes Sven the first club DJ in Germany to produce and |::
::| market himself. It also lays the foundation for the "Sound of |::
::| Frankfurt". In the same year, he and Mⁿnzing / Anzilotti produce the |::
::| second single "Electrica Salsa". |::
::| 1987 |::
::| At the beginning of the year, Sven switches back to the Dorian Gray |::
::| (which has grown since his early days) and becomes co-patron of Belgian |::
::| techno / underground music (later to be called Electronic Body Music / |::
::| EBM). Its motto: pogo instead of disco fox. "Electrica Salsa" turns out |::
::| to be an international success and several tours throughout Europe and |::
::| South America follow. In the middle of the year, the followup single |::
::| "Step By Step" is released, then "Harry Aber Jetzt" and "Timeoperator", |::
::| and, in November, the album "Organisation For Fun". Without the German |::
::| press noticing, the underground club hit "Be My Dream" is declared |::
::| "Gothic Techno" in the USA and England. |::
::| 1988 |::
::| In February 1988, Sven leaves the Dorian Gray to go to Paris and do |::
::| dance performances. After his return in summer, he buys the venerable |::
::| Vogue together with Michael Mⁿnzing and Matthias Martinsohn. Following |::
::| the complete renovation and the grand opening at the beginning of |::
::| October, the club is called "Omen" and writes a new chapter of club |::
::| history. Sven brings Acid sound to Germany. He produces the single "La |::
::| Casa Latina". |::
::| 1989 |::
::| Acid loses popularity. House style vocals still have a chance on the |::
::| dancefloor. Release of the second OFF album, "Ask Yourself", produced |::
::| by Matthias Hoffmann (now Eye Q). Single "Move Your Body". The B-side, |::
::| "Das Licht", is the first tranquil club hit. Sven splits with his |::
::| former producers Mⁿnzing / Anzilotti and continues working on his |::
::| project Mosaic with producers Matthias Hoffmann and Steffen Britzke. |::
::| Result: "It Is Serious" (later to be covered by Enigma "Sadeness"), the |::
::| first track with a choir. Mosaic remixes such classics as "DΘja Vu" by |::
::| Spliff and "Oxygene" by Jean Michel Jarre and creates the basis for |::
::| further assignments. |::
::| 1990 |::
::| Mosaic's followup single "Dance Now" becomes very successful and enters |::
::| the charts. Sven's turntable style becomes harder, the nights longer. |::
::| This summer techno breaks out in Germany. Sven is again one of the |::
::| first to accept, adapt and play this music. The Omen club becomes an |::
::| international meeting place for club culture |::
::| 1991 |::
::| Together with publisher / manager Heinz Roth and producer Matthias |::
::| Hoffmann, Sven founds the Eye Q label. First hit is Zyon's "No Fate". |::
::| Sven shifts his set to "hypnotic, monotone house music", later to be |::
::| called trancehouse, and through his work supports many productions in |::
::| the Frankfurt area: the "Sound of Frankfurt" takes on a new dimension. |::
::| His commitment to the technohouse scene also influences the repertoire |::
::| at Eye Q, for which he produces many remixes. |::
::| 1992 |::
::| Sven ("The Godfather of Techno") deejays in leading clubs around the |::
::| world. He establishes the DJ label Harthouse and released the Album |::
::| "The Art of Dance" under the pseudonym Barbarella. In the middle of the |::
::| year he meets Ralf Hildenbeutel and begins production of his first |::
::| album in his own name: "Accident In Paradise" |::
::| 1993 |::
::| Release of several single tracks from the album and their remixes: |::
::| "Ritual Of Life", "L'Esperanza" (charted) and "An Accident In |::
::| Paradise". At the same time, besides many productions for Eye Q / |::
::| Harthouse establishes itself on a worldwide basis and signs a deal with |::
::| Warner Music. |::
::| 1994 |::
::| Sven Vaeth is by far the most successful DJ in the world. (The press |::
::| calls him "the only German pop star"). Start of production for the new |::
::| album, "The Robot, The Harlequin And The Ballet Dancer", with Ralf |::
::| Hildenbeutel ("my spiritual amplifier"). |::
::| 1995 |::
::| 1996 |::
::| Sven produces the soundtrack for the Ralf Huettner movie "Der Kalte |::
::| Finger" ("The cold finger") together with B-ZET. In April, he is |::
::| initiating his event project series Cocoon. Of course, its first |::
::| station is Sven's home base Frankfurt, second is Munich and the last |::
::| one is at the Copenhagen Art Festival. Sven's first official North |::
::| American tour is a major success, and he is playing the best clubs and |::
::| parties in nine cities from coast to coast. |::
::| 1997 |::
::| Sven's Pinnacle Power takes a whole new direction as he leaves the Eye |::
::| Q / Harthouse company to begin a fresh start, new and exciting, that |::
::| will take him well into the next century. He also forms a booking |::
::| agency to feature and support the many talented acts he is interested |::
::| in. |::
::| 2002 |::
::| After the Fire World Tour and after the end of Cocoon's 2002 Summer |::
::| Season in Ibiza, where the Cocoon Club hosted its fourth residency at |::
::| Amnesia, Sven is looking back to this event series. On "The Sound of |::
::| the Third Season", he once more pursues different paths: together with |::
::| co-resident Richie Hawtin, he managed not only to bring the music on |::
::| CD, but also the unique atmosphere at the Cocoon parties by including |::
::| radioplaylike cuts from the people talking in the club. In late summer, |::
::| Sven produces his first 12" for his own label Cocoon Recordings: |::
::| "Vision" is not only an hommage to the Festival of Electronic Music in |::
::| the Swiss mountains but also a successful club hit. Besides his |::
::| bookings all over the world, Sven works on the production of the Remix |::
::| album "Fire Works", which includes remixes of the "Fire" tracks, made |::
::| by well known colleagues. "Fire Works" is released in March 2003 and |::
::| takes Sven once more to an extended World Tour. |::
::| 2003 |::
::| The "Fire Works" Tour is highly successful and wherever Sven plays, he |::
::| leaves behind a happy and enthusiastic audience, may it be in Europe, |::
::| Asia or America. Besides his numerous bookings in this time, Sven is |::
::| mainly busy with the conception of the Fourth Season of the Cocoon Club |::
::| in Ibiza. However, another event casts its shadows: the Green&Blue Open |::
::| Air at the Waldschwimmbad Atlantis in Obertshausen near Frankfurt. The |::
::| Ibiza Season turns out to be the most successful Cocoon event series on |::
::| the island so far and the last party 'The Final' on September, 15th of |::
::| 2003 literally ends it with a Bang! The Green&Blue Party is the last |::
::| Open Air event of the year in Germany and represents something very |::
::| special for Sven: for the first time in his career, he plays in his |::
::| hometown Obertshausen. The idea for this rather unique event originally |::
::| came from the local authorities and Sven and his company Cocoon were |::
::| prepared to listen. Not only was the Waldschwimmbad Atlantis the |::
::| perfect place for the Green&Blue, it also provided the name for the |::
::| party: the vast lawn and the old trees created a perfect contrast to |::
::| the blue water of the basins. For Sven, it was both a comeback to the |::
::| place where he learned to swim as well as a reunion with many friends |::
::| from back then. In October 2003, the Mix CD "The Sound of the Fourth |::
::| Season" is released on Cocoon Recordings as a double CD and hit the |::
::| German Compilation charts on No. 15. |::
::| 2004 |::
::| Besides the next Ibiza Season and the second edition of the Green&Blue |::
::| festival, another highlight is approaching: six years after the Omen |::
::| closed, Sven Vaeth is opening a new club in Frankfurt: the Cocoon Club. |::
::| This project is undoubtedly the biggest in Sven's life so far and will |::
::| set new standards for clubbing worldwide. |::
::| 2005 |::
::| Being state-of-the-art, the CocoonClub fascinates guests from all over |::
::| the world and proves Sven's status as a leading figure in contemporary |::
::| music. |::

::| As time goes by, the world matures. PsyCZ has matured and the scene has |::
::| matured. PsyCZ started releasing in VBR over two years ago, and was met |::
::| with skepticism. As time went by, more and more realised that VBR is |::
::| superiour to cbr 192. Finally, in 2004, VBR is allowed by the scene. |::
::| PsyCZ will also in 2004 continue to bring you the finest psychedelic |::
::| trance music from around the world, as we have since 2001. |::
