The Midnight Project #205

Author: Sebastiaan Hooft May 6, 2026 Duration: 59:54

Midnighters, this one moves with intent.

The set opens with Kasablanca and Township Rebellion's It's Chemical on MAHOOL, exactly the kind of statement we needed to start. Charlotte de Witte's Amor with CERES on KNTXT follows, and Karla Blum's The Only One on Arcane Music keeps the grip tight.

Through the middle: Adam Beyer with Mark Reeve on Drumcode, EDRDO's Innocence Is a Myth, Diego Amaro, and Paul Tognelli's Take Control on Mainground. Stephan Dodevsky's rework of Jeff Mills' The Bells lands at the halfway point, a classic for those of us who remember the original.

The closing stretch is where this one earns its place. Norvis and Anna May on Animarum, Demon Noise with Lautaro Ibañez, Amber Broos's Chicks, Alex Farell with MXGN on HEKATE, and Giorgia Angiuli's Sanamos Bailando. The set closes on Marie Vaunt and Deborah de Luca with Lalala, exactly the finish I wanted to share with you this week.

Two days from now, the first Rooftop Session begins at the Tomorrowland Store Ibiza. Friday May 8, on the rooftop of Ibiza Gallery in Playa d'en Bossa, the start of twelve bi-weekly Friday nights across the season. If you're on the island, find me on the rooftop. If you're somewhere else this Friday, this set is what we'll be building toward.

There's a moment around the middle of this mix, you'll know which one. Drop the timestamp in the comments. I read every one.

Same pulse, different cities. 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.
