Hey Midnighters,

Episode 195 is here, and this one hits with pure drive from the very first kick. I built this week’s journey around control, tension, and release, that feeling when the groove locks in and you forget everything else around you. Whether you tuned in on Wednesday at 6 AM CET or caught it later on DI.FM with 60,000 global listeners, you know this one was made to move.

We open strong with Serioes, Legendaer, and Little Duracell’s Take Control (Return Fall Extended Remix), setting the tone with a deep but commanding pulse. Patrick Scuro, The Post Brothers, and The Enveloper keep the pressure high with Oldschool, while Zafer Atabey’s Unrest on EXTIMA brings that hypnotic tension I love to play with early in the set.

Crossbow and GIULIA (IT) take us inward with Someone in the Mirror before YellowHeads unleash Monochrome Dreams in Peak Mode, a serious moment on the dancefloor. Then UMEK drops Kappa One… and you already know that means business.

Mid-set, Salkantay’s Cross The Line and Nicolas Hoop with BCT’s Mental Focus push the groove into overdrive. Victor Ruiz and HNGT’s A New Day on 1001 Recordings lifts the energy beautifully, and Layton Giordani with Camden Cox on Destiny adds that emotional edge that keeps things human inside the machine.

The final stretch is where it gets special. Victor Ruiz and Moreira’s Every Day Arcane flows into Liberthorn’s Digital Dissociative, and then we flip it. L.A. Style’s James Brown is Dead in UMEK’s bootleg form is a nod to the roots, reimagined for now. Annie Hill closes Episode 195 with Legacy, and that title says it all.

This show is about pushing forward while respecting where we came from. New names, established legends, exclusive heat, all in one uninterrupted ride.

See you next Wednesday at 6 AM.

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.
