  • Henrik Schwarz – Where We At (Part 2) feat. Ame, Dixon, Derrick Carter

    A lot of people talk about music ‘taking you on a journey’. Often, it’s just PR speil, but sometimes, you really are in for one heck of a voyage. Henrik Schwarz’s Where We At (Part 2) – featuring Âme, Dixon, and Derrick Carter – is a track that fits this very bill. After spending most…

  • Another time, another place

    Music has an incredible power to transport you. If you close your eyes, a track can (at the risk of sounding cliché and revealing my inner hippie) take you to another dimension. I’ve always been good at daydreaming, and this little piece of harmonic beauty so swiftly transports me into reverie. It’s there that I’m…

  • Spend ‘A Night With…’ Tobi Neumann

    Over the next couple of weeks, London livens up with some of the biggest nights of the year – Sven Väth and his Cocoon crew are in town for a double whammy weekender (Liverpool on Friday 26th, and Fabric London on 27th), Double Trouble Productions bravely host Rhythmatic’s third anniversary on the same Saturday as Väth,…

  • Head cinema with Kollektiv Turmstrasse

    Back in September, I met up with friends from across the pond for Cocoon’s Green and Blue festival in Frankfurt.

Yesterday, one of the friends who was with me at the event sent…

  • Music for a moody Monday

    Judging by this morning’s hideous journey into The Eco Office, costing me a fine full £10 for said travel – today did not start off on the best foot. However, after a particularly slow first few hours, things finally picked up with discovery of some good tunes to type to. So, if you’ve been having…

  • Robert Babicz – Sonntag

    By total coincidence I stumbled upon Polish-born Germany-based tech producer Robert Babicz and his track Sonntag this evening, indeed on a Sunday. Released way back in 2005 on his Mister Head vinyl, it’s one of those timeless tunes that still sounds as fresh now as it did then. This cool little track owns a bit of…

  • Will Chris Tietjen Rocket Germany’s Temperature Above Freezing?

    It’s October. In Germany, it’s already minus seven degrees at night, so who better to step up to the challenge of getting the countries temperature, and pulse, royally roasting other than Cocoon regular Chris Tietjen? On Saturday November 28th, home grown tech DJ Tietjen will take to the decks at Gloria’s in Regensburg, and as…
