from amnesia's website:

This is the year 2008, and what once was called Science Fiction has now arrived in the present. Everybody is using an adequate communicator, controlling and storing half his life, and music is more and more becoming a very important part of it. The songs that help us forget our daily routine are the soundtrack of our lives, meanwhile covering the whole world. Cosmic Electronic Grooves from planet Minimal Techno Funk – and each summer, Ibiza is the capital of this planet and Sven Väth is its galactic commander! The Amnesia pyramid continues sending out its signal, and the signal says: "Disco Invasion"! We are following this signal and will travel all the way through the Techno universe, in order to bring you the revolution: the Disco Invasion, that blends everything together and leaves behind old categories. 'The sky is the limit' on planet Minimal Techno Funk, Ibiza is our International Spaceport and Sven gives us the command for take-off!
Cocoon Ibiza is an absolutely unique story of success, and is approaching its tenth anniversary with rapid strides. But neither the long-time duration of the Cocoon Summer Residency nor its constantly growing support are the true indicators of success – it's the musical content and the high artistic values of the campaigns that have been and still are unrivalled on the island, regarding continuity and consequence. Where chumming-up mainstream has replaced the Balearic Beats over the last years, Cocoon was able to give a totally new musical impulse to the island and has also significantly influenced many competitors. The latest strike in this constantly developing Cocoon universe does now unite the euphoria of the late Disco and Funk era and current Techno and House tendencies, and thus heralds a new stage of contemporary music.

The matching frequencies and sounds are delivered by the three Cosmic Groove Commanders Sven Väth, Ricardo Villalobos and Richie Hawtin. supported by the Electronic Funk Armada around Loco Dice, Luciano, André Galluzzi, Steve Bug, Marco Carola and Pig&Dan. Also, Miss Magda and the brothers Tiefschwarz are on board again, and Frankfurt support comes this year from Frank Lorber, C-Rock, Dorian Paic and our most beloved space vegetable: Cosmic Karotte!

Similarly to the past Ibiza orbits, the Cosmic Dance Department is again taking care for the newcomer space pilots of the last years: Raresh and Chris Tietjen will be with us – and this year's new cadets on the Cocoon Spaceship are Reboot, Johnny D, Danny Fiddo, Matt Star, Mathias Kaden as well as Berlin-based Cassy and Vakant shooting star Tolga Fidan.
In this summer, live consoles are operated by Minilogue, Gaiser, Extrawelt, Heartthrob, Dandy Jack, Melchior Productions, Barem and Guy Gerber; but also the Ibiza veterans from our friendly star alliance Alter Ego will be at the controls on the command bridge and will have a significant influence on the course.

Cosmic Dance is here to stay!

Cocoon Ibiza 2008 - Invasion completed!

(From COCOON.NET)


''Cocoon Ibiza 2008 – Invasion completed!


The Ninth Season has now ended with a sensational bang and has been the most successful one since our beginnings at the Amnesia in the year 2000! Your enthusiasm and support have been simply phenomenal – this wonderful audience from all over the world, freak or not freak, is globally unique!


At the outset of our planning, there was still a big question mark behind what we would have to expect from the terrace this summer. However, what we found in the new layout of the dancefloor and the custom-built sound system, has exceeded all expectations. Now, without exaggeration, we can speak of two parallel Main Floors, where both DJs and guests can enjoy the party.


At this point, Sven Väth and his team want to thank everybody who has contributed to this success: DJs, VJs, performers, décor artists... – and in the first place you: our audience! Whether from Germany, Spain, Italy, England... – electronic music lovers came from all over Europe to party together and to feel the energy that is released when everybody has this special frenzy feeling...


For sure, one of the numerous highlights of this season has been the Closing Party, where an excellently tempered Sven Väth and a no less exalted Richie Hawtin turned the Techno Floor into a boiling pot, while Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano and Zip ignited a passionate and perfect fireworks of sound on the House Floor, that can rarely be found.


In 2009, Sven and Cocoon are visiting the Isla Blanca for the tenth time now, and we would not be Cocoon if this wasn't an incentive for us to exceed the incredible season of 2008 and to offer our guests even more.


And the dates for the Tenth Season are already determined: the Grand Opening Party will be held on June 15th and the Closing Party on September 28th of 2009. These are 16 Mondays full of music, dance and energy – Cocoon Ibiza 2009!


Come and visit us at the CocoonClub Frankfurt or at one of our Cocoon Events that are staged worldwide.''
