Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth: a season shared on record

Richie Hawtin and Sven Väth have a documented joint release from 2002: Cocoon Club Ibiza — The Sound of the Third Season. It gives this shared credit a real musical setting without turning two established DJs into a permanent band.

The club beyond the booth

The original release credits both men with compiling, editing and mixing. Its sleeve describes collecting music and sounds throughout the Ibiza season, drawing the places around a club night into the finished sequence. That makes the project more particular than a list of tracks that happened to be popular that summer. The recording treats the journey around the dance floor as part of the subject: the social spaces, the passing hours and the changes in atmosphere all belong to the same season.

A release and a radio listing

Mute's official archive documents the joint title, while the original sleeve identifies the Cocoon Recordings edition. The YGEN recording is labelled as a Global DJ Broadcast appearance in November 2002. That label is retained as an archive credit; it does not establish that the audio is identical to the commercially issued mix. The distinction matters for listeners comparing versions. The shared album is a firm reference point, while an exact radio running order still needs the original broadcast documentation.
