An entirely ambient oriented album would be the stone in the crown.. But a "touch themes" like remix album of catharsis would be enough for me

Sven Vath is for me , as the person, the longest-serving DJ / Act on the dance scene.
I remember his videos and performances as OFF ..
ELECTRICA SALSA was the first single that caught my ear in the 80's.
It was something new and completely different from anything served in the 80's.
Arriving in the 90's, Sven listens to the beat on the dance scene and with his album ACCIDENT IN PARADISE
shake a dancefloor podiums.
LA ESPERANZA is his big commercial hit from that album and will mark an entire decade.
Trance as a musical direction has always been in the veins of Sven, so his later albums HARLEQUIN, FUSION, CONTACT..etc literally introduce (listeners / dancers) to new unexplored worlds in dance music ..
After all those years on stage, a lot of albums and remixes, Sven is still here ... Still fresh and full of energy...
The latest sets circulating on the Internet still confirm that Sven is inventive , listen to the crowd on the floor, which makes him different from all current DJs today......I personally appreciate a DJ who spins records ...

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that literally every track on his Sound Of The Season mixes is available on vinyl. Talk about dedication to a format. If techno had a mascot, Sven would be it!

Whatever forms of House and Techno you are into then you have probably heard of Sven Vath and he really does deserve the respect he gets. He's like Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier, Carl Craig or Kevin Saunderson in that he's been there since the beginning doing his thing and reinventing himself but changing with the tides as electronic music changes. He still plays only 100% vinyl and all discogs sellers/buyers gotta respect that right?

Sven will always be the most influential figure in electronic dance music to me, and many others, of various ages since 1988 all the way to today in 2010. I first discovered him in 1994 through his debut album Accident In Paradise, released a couple years earlier. Along with the Trance Europe Express 2 compilation, this album forever changed me from a former rock & metal fan into an electronic music fan. What is it about this sound that is so timeless? Part of that credit should be given to studio mate Ralf Hildenbeutel, who provided quite a bit of the ambience and sound design in the album. But Sven is more than a producer, he is an entity of music, living and breathing and sharing it with the rest of the world as if he is on a mission from God to do so. Being in the States, I did not get the chance to see him until I was much older and he played in LA at Spundae club in 2003. What a performance, what a stage presence! He looked deeply into everyone's souls that night and got them onto the dancefloor like it was their last night on earth. I was fortunate to corner him and Richie (his "opening" talent!) at the end of his set and talk to him about his days at Omen and what he thinks of techno at that point in time. He was incredibly friendly, helpful and interested to hear what I had to say and of course, humble and grateful of my praise. He even gave me his email address and told me to stay in touch with my own techno happenings in LA. A class act if there ever was one, a living legend, Sven don't ever stop what you do!

Only one comment on der BABA!!??

Well, I experienced him for the first time in 1996 @ Skanderborg Festival in Denmark. What a turning point that became. It was a revalation which instantly made me realize that since the beginning of my journey into electronic music in 1993, I had never come across genuine quality before.

His presence...Oh the presence! No-one I have seen ever since have been able to shine behind those decks as Baba. Confidence, quality track selection and this inexplainable aura. I was sold and have since travelled thousands and thousands of miles to re-witness the sensation. That man can span a time-bow without breaking a sweat. It´s not that much in the mix (though I must point out that his 30 sec to 1 minute seamless mixes are a trademark - not lack of skills!), but in the flow of the tracks. The way he´s able to find tunes that just fit like...Well you get my point.

Nowadays I have moved on from that Sven-sound to all kinds of shit, but still I had a blast seeing him again - for the first time in 4 years - in 2007. Still bringing just a single slingback of, maybe 60 vinyls. Still the magic.

I will always love you Sven! You truly are a one-of-a-kind.

Thanks for the inspiration and for the good times <3<3<3

I have experienced him live for the 1st time in 1990 in a small sweaty club with a capacity of 200 people. On the heights of the movement he was riding the wave very well at Omen. His performances are certainly remembered by any who have had the joy to see him in action. Mayday 1992 certainly was a revelation. Not that his DJ skills are godlike, there certainly are better mixers around, the way he is able to steer a crowd though is remarkable. He describes himself as a dancer and that is his virtue, still.
It is astonishing that he is one of the few, who grew out of the closet into mainstream without losing his club credibility. I see him live once year on an open air festival and I have to admit that I've never had a dull moment....
