Hey Midnighters,

This week’s episode of The Midnight Project hits differently. Pure drive, no distractions, and a profound opening statement to set the tone for the whole journey. From the first beat, this one is built for big systems and that shared moment when the energy locks in.

I’m excited to say I’ve secured a very special festival edition of Adam Beyer’s brand-new track, and you’re hearing it right here. This version is made to explode in front of massive crowds, and opening the show with it felt like the only right move. From there, the pressure stays on with heavy hitters and forward-thinking cuts from Twins Project, Tini Gessler, Kate Hex, and a strong run of Arcane releases that keep the momentum rolling.

The middle of the mix dives deep with A.D.H.S. & Jose Bonetto and Teenage Mutants alongside Technicism, before pushing into raw, driving territory with Anna Reusch and a standout Robert Hood remix for FJAAK. I closed things out with DJ Rush and Deas, because sometimes you need that final punch to seal the deal.

This episode is all about movement, tension, and that unmistakable festival-ready energy, even when you’re listening in the dark.

You’ll find the complete tracklist waiting for you here:

See you next Wednesday,

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.
