Sven Väth Announces First Solo Album in Nearly Two Decades

Iconic electronic artist Sven Väth dropped the tracklist and release date for his first solo album in nearly 20 years, Catharsis.

Few artists have comparable careers to that of Sven Väth. His impressive run that spans four decades stems back to the earliest days of electronic music and he’s graced the scene with some of the most immersive, stunning releases and performances during that time. This innovator in the scene is also the mastermind behind Cocoon, and it was recently announced that his legacy will be put on display at the Museum of Modern Electronic Music in the spring as well.

That wasn’t the only piece of exciting news that Sven Väth had in store for his global fanbase, as he also just revealed that his first solo album in nearly 20 years will be revealed in 2022 as well. Due out on February 25, Catharsis sees the legend team up with highly-respected producer Gregor Tresher to assist in his efforts to bring this album to life. It’s one that’s inspired by Sven Väth’s interest in exploring the physical and spiritual processes that happen when we move to music and find ourselves unified as one on the dancefloor.

No dancing, no paradise! My imagination for this record was fueled by the many cultural experiences and encounters I have had in my life. They gave me the strength to find a way, the way to myself.
Sven Väth
