Hey Midnighters,

It’s Wednesday and Episode 189 of The Midnight Project is out now. This one is all about momentum and atmosphere. Deep pressure, rolling grooves, and that slow-burning intensity that keeps you locked in from start to finish.

I open the show with Expanse by GENESI on Arcane, setting the mood instantly. From there it keeps evolving with driving selections by Giancarlo Di Chiara, Matteo Vitanza, Nikoretti, and the timeless Player Three remaster. Heavy underground energy comes in with Demon Noise and Zafer Atabey, followed by hypnotic movement from Enveak and Mazdem, plus raw attitude from Momola and Estora. Marie Vaunt brings serious fire on Arcane, Rob Robsen and Paula van Klar with Spartaque push the pressure higher, and Thomas T. takes things into darker territory.

Big shout out to Bruno Power. Bruno is a world on its own. That Opus bootleg landing in my DM made my Sunday night, and closing the show with it just felt right.

See you in the night,

Sebastiaan

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.
