The Midnight Project #185

Hey Midnighters,

Sebastiaan here, welcome back to another high-voltage ride with The Midnight Project.

Episode 185 is built for pure momentum. Driving grooves, big hooks, and that straight-to-the-dancefloor energy from the first kick to the final drop.

We kick things off with Oscar L x Charles D – Lift Me Up on Drumcode, then go deeper into the shadows with Teenage Mutants x Tocadisco – In the Dark. Drunken Kong brings the grit with Give It To Me, and Tao Andra keeps it locked in with Unity. From there, it is pressure all the way: Belocca – Burn Me Down, the wild Eli Brown x HNTR link-up gImmE gImmE (feat. Rome Fortune), and that massive Victor Ruiz x Ignacio Arfeli – Ascend moment. The second half stays ruthless with Manta Rey – Dancefloor Command, Anna Reusch – Bass Down Low, Nicole Moudaber x Zlata – Report to the Dancefloor, Audio State & Melvin Spix – Departure, and Pan-Pot – Kaltstrom, before we close into the unknown with Akona – Outworld.

Curated by DJ and producer Sebastiaan Hooft, The Midnight Project Techno Music is a weekly immersion into the genre's deeper currents. This isn't a random playlist; it's a constructed session where new discoveries sit alongside foundational tracks, all mixed with a DJ's intuition for narrative and flow. Sebastiaan uses the format of a podcast to craft a focused, hour-long atmosphere each week, pulling from fresh releases that deserve attention, overlooked gems from past years, and those classic rhythms that never lose their power. The result feels less like a broadcast and more like a private listening room where the energy builds, evolves, and transports you. You'll hear seamless blends and thoughtful progressions that highlight the hypnotic, physical, and sometimes melancholic soul of techno. It’s for those moments after dark when you want the continuity of a club set without the crowd, or when you need a pulse for focused work or travel. The consistency of the weekly podcast provides a reliable source for both keeping up with the scene and rediscovering its essence, all filtered through Sebastiaan’s seasoned ear. Tune in for a direct, ad-free stream of pure rhythm.
