We also dive into Victor Ruiz, Mha Iri, Mark Porter, and Lilly Palmer, each bringing their unique essence to the mix. UMEK, Maddix, and Charlotte de Witte's tracks are a nod to the powerful influence of these artists in the techno scene.
As for my contributions, including two tracks that charted in the top 10 this year, it is a thrill. Being a part of this vibrant community and contributing to the sound that defines us is an honor.
The mix also features the likes of Thomas Schumacher, Ramon Tapia, Belocca, Marie Vaunt, and Eli Brown, each artist adding their unique flavor to this diverse collection. The energy continues with tracks from artists like Space 92, Bart Skils, Raxon, Drunken Kong, and Green Velvet.
We journey through the imaginative remixes of Royksopp and the original vibes of Wehbba, UMEK, SAM WOLFE, Pleasurekraft, Joyhauser, and many more. The mix slows down with &ME's 'L.I.F.E,' a track that sums it up.
I hope this mix connects you deeper with the artists behind these tracks. Their stories, just like ours, are woven into the very fabric of the beats w…

It's that time again! The Midnight Project #081 just dropped, and it's a blend of electrifying beats and introspective melodies that resonate with our ever-pulsating techno hearts. This week, we dive into the deeper realms of techno, featuring tracks that make you move and think. Lees meer
Let's talk about Adam Beyer and Raxon's "The Signal (Night Mix)"—a track that opens our journey. The deep, throbbing basslines remind us of our heartbeats, keeping us alive and kicking. It's a song about communication, about reaching out through the noise of everyday life.
And then there's "Drop It Down" by Joyhauser and Eli Brown. It's more than just a track; it's a call to action. To drop down all barriers, to let loose, and to embrace the freedom that comes with the beat. It's a reminder of the balance we seek—between the highs of the music and the grounding reality of our lives.
Speaking of balance, did you catch the "Raving Adventure (Sebastiaan Hooft Remix)" by Horatio and Pagano? This one's special. It's not just a track; it's a journey. It's about the adventures we embark on, both physically and spiritually. It's a testament to our community's spirit—adventurous yet mindful, always seeking new horizons while staying true to our roots.
Remember, each track we share isn't just techno; it's a part of our story, a beat in the heart of our community. We're not just sharing tunes; we're sharing a part of ourselves.
As always, keep the balance. This week, try adding a small mindfulness practice to your day. Even five minutes can make a difference. And for a good read, check out "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle. It's a game changer for understanding the importance of the present moment.
Until next time, keep your feet on the ground and your heart in the beat.
Sebastiaan

The energy he brings to his tracks and sets is contagious, and I'm not just saying that because he's played some of my tracks, too!
