Sven Väth - Unofficial Discography
(tekst: Stefan Sell)



Sven Väth is a well-known techno/ambient DJ from Frankfurt, Germany. This is a detailed discography of all releases by Sven Väth and related projects (Off, Essence of Nature, Barbarella, Metal Master, Astral Pilot) known by me.

It is not official and not complete, but I'm looking for all information that you have and can't find here.

About Sven Väth

Sven Väth is a well-known techno/ambient DJ from Frankfurt, Germany. He was born on the 26th of October 1964 in Offenbach near Frankfurt/Main, Germany. After school he made an apprenticeship as a building fitter. At the age of 18 he got a chance to DJ in the "Dorian Gray", a big and well-known club in Frankfurt.

Then later in the 80s Sven has become the frontman of a group called "Off". He formed it with Michael Münzig and Luca Anzilotti, who later became Snap. Matthias Hoffmann (aka AC Boutsen) joined Off later.
Their biggest hit was 1987 "Electrica Salsa (Baba Baba)". I don't like the Off stuff, be warned, Sven's 'singing' is terrible - in my opinion, of course :-)

In 1988 he has opened with two partners a club called "Omen". It's one of Frankfurt's biggest and most famous clubs, which will probably (or not!?) be closed soon. See Unofficial Omen Page by Trancefusion.

In 1991 Sven has founded the label "EYE-Q" together with Heinz Roth and Matthias Hoffmann. It is divided into the two sublabels "HARTHOUSE" (for a techno/house style) and "RECYCLE OR DIE" (featuring electronic instrumental/experimental/ambient music) and the the "EYE-Q Main Label" (for everything that doesn't fit in the other catagories).

Since 1992 Sven Väth has been collaborating with Ralf Hildenbeutel. They've had the projects "Essence of Nature" and "Barbarella", and they've also done Sven's 'solo' releases together.
Ralf Hildenbeutel has also released some work without Sven, as "Ralf Hildenbeutel", "Earth Nation", "Curare", "Progressive Attack", "Cygnus X" and "Odysee of Noises". A list of this work can be found in my Unofficial Ralf Hildenbeutel Discography.

"Metal Master" is a collaboration of Sven Väth and A.C. Boutsen (aka Matthias Hoffmann).

"Astral Pilot" is a collaboration of Sven Väth and Stevie B-Zet (aka Steffen Britzke). Together they've also made the soundtrack for a film called "Der Kalte Finger".

Sometimes Sven is playing at the HR3 Clubnight (noframe version) (HR3 is a German radio station, the pages are in German). Check the HR3 Clubnight Lineup page (noframe version) for future clubnight dates...

Sven has donated an exclusive and previously unreleased track called "Rainforest Is Calling" for Earthtrance, a rainforest conservation charity CD compilation that has been released in 08/1996. See Earthtrance page for more informations about this project.

ATTENTION!!!

EYE-Q is in great changes now...

Offenbach and USA offices has been closed!

A new office with new personel has been raised in Berlin (Rosenthaler Str 46, 10178 Berlin. Phone: +49 +30 28 49 98 - 0 / Fax -11)...

But the last thing I've heard is that Berlin office has already been closed, and the only remaining office is probably London!

I don't know if Sven is still into EYE-Q anymore...

And I don't know if the sublabels HARTHOUSE and RECYCLE OR DIE still exist. Probably they have been dropped...

Once there was an official EYE-Q site, but this server is now defunct for a while. Maybe they're planning to go online again one day, maybe not, I don't know...

Please note: These infos about EYE-Q are without any warranty! Currently I can't say which is true and which is not!
