i just d/led sven vath - l'esperanaza (original album mix) and it made me speechless. i cant believe this was produced in 1993. so fuckin amazing. i know that he spins techno now but what r his best trance songs from the old sk00l era.

Sven Vath- Accident in paradise
it's also old, but its what you're looking for IMO.

hey grimreaper, that zyon tune is absolutely mind blowing. especially the no fate '93 mix. how the f did they produce that like that back then. it a masterpiece. do u know any more similar to that tune. thx again

The "Accident in Paradise" album is mostly new age sounding. It's okay, I suppose, but I prefer the Barbarella "the Art of Dance" album (more like a compilation, really) which came out around the same time. "Accident" is more organic sounding whereas Barbarella was more electronic. Anyways, "Accident" was released on CD in Canada so it's not that difficult to find. Barbarella, on the other hand ...

If you like that ambient style, check out the stuff on the Recycle or Die label, especially the works of Ralf Hildenbeutel (Sven's earlier work wouldn't have been the same without Ralf collaborating on them), Stevie Bezet, and Oliver Lieb.

And for those who were too young back in the early 90s ... my sympathies. You missed out on a lot of really cool *innovative* stuff.

Keep your eyes open for those old Sven Vaeth Clubnight sets from 1992-1994. They're cult.

Sven Väth is the MAN! I think he's way underrated...but maybe it's because this is a trance-forum that no one ever speaks about him? I love him...I hope he comes to Sweden again sometime soooooon...

Isn't he by the way the pioneer of all eurpean electronic dance music? Isnt's he the one we should be greatful to for having our great electronic music culture here in Europe??

sven vath is not underrated in the techno community.

his best production was strahelmann und somme (genie remix) or si futures - eurostar(sven vath remix.

he is one of the most respected djs in the world, he runs his own club night in ibiza called cocoon at amnesia and has released countless tracks and compilations - the sound of the second season - (cd two) being my favourite.

i think hes going thru a rough patch at the moment cos ive heard a few bad reviews of him but he has still achieved so much in his career.

kinda reminds me of a german laurent garnier.

väth = most controversial figure in techno scene.
some absolutely adore and worship him, other detest him. Some sets can be out of this world, other can suck ballz.

personally I saw him once (5 hour set) and wasnt that impressed. but i do like "his" (he didnt really produce it) accident in paradise album
