Nastia and Einzelkind tapped for Cocoon Ibiza mix series

The annual series returns with another two-disc set next month.

Sven Väth's Cocoon Recordings looks to Nastia and Einzelkindfor the next entry in its Cocoon Ibiza mix series.

Each summer, two artists are called upon to make mixes for a two-disc set on Cocoon, which celebrates the sounds of the label's weekly Monday session at Ibiza club Amnesia. Nastia, real name Anastasia Topolskaia—a Ukrainian DJ and the mind behind the Kiev festival Strichka—handles the first disc and offers what Cocoon calls a "more physical" selection. Her mix includes cuts from the likes of Luke Slater, Terrence Dixon, Slam, Plastic (AKA Yagya), Theorem and Calibre.

We're told to expect something "more stripped-back and cerebral" from Einzelkind, AKA Arno Völker, who runs the labels La Peña, JAX and Pressure Traxx. It's heavy on the German artist's own material, both solo productions and collaborations with artists like Ricardo Villalobos (from their Arnoracdouble-pack, released on Pressure Traxx in January) and Markus Fix (who curated the Dots & Pearls 4 mix CD for Cocoon a few months ago), along with a couple projects he's part of, Rhythm Factory and Implosive Inc.
