The Midnight Project Techno Music

Midnighters,We open with Achilles, fresh off the Panic release that Thomas Schumacher and A.D.H.S. dropped on Electric Ballroom last Friday. Four days old and already setting the tone for this hour: Berlin drive, no warm-up, straight in.From there it keeps rolling. Anna Reusch on Tronic, Pan-Pot with Gray Cosmo on their own Second State, and a Peak Mode mix from YellowHeads that does exactly what the name promises. Listen for the vocal in Linska's Four Four, rhys from the sticks gives the middle of this set an unexpected human moment before Norvis pulls everything back into the dark.The last twenty minutes are pure engine room. Dok & Martin's Generator on DCLTD, Rich Coote's Thunderbird, and DJ Jordan closing with a track called Big Beautiful Bass. He is not lying.The Midnight Project lands every week, same time, same place. No gaps, no reruns, over 200 episodes and counting. Follow the show on your favorite platform and you never have to think about it again, the new hour just shows up.If one track in this episode moves you, tell me which one. That is how I build these sets.SebastiaanThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Midnighters,Three days after the midyear special, we are back to regular programming. No looking back this time, just one hour on where techno is heading in the second half of 2026.This episode opens on Truesoul and works its way through Terminal M, Drumcode Limited, and Arcane before landing somewhere darker. Listen for the acid line in Arielle Free's Acid Love; it cuts through the middle of this mix like a knife. And Chris Avantgarde's Jester might be the most cinematic six minutes I have played all year.The closer is my own track Paws. Yes, it was in yesterday's best-of, too. It is out now, and I stand behind it, so this week it gets the last word.New episode every week. If one track in this hour moves you, tell me which one. That is how I build these sets.SebastiaanThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Midnighters,Six months into 2026, and these are the tracks that never left my bag.This is a bonus episode of The Midnight Project. One hour of the records that defined my sets in the first half of the year. Recorded in one take from the studio in Ibiza.You will hear a lot of Terminal M, Drumcode, and Arcane in this one. That was not planned; it is just where the energy lived these past six months. Monika Kruse appears twice, once with a brand new remix and once with a remastered classic that still destroys rooms 25 years after it first did. Some records earn their place in a midyear list by being new. Others earn it by refusing to age.Full disclosure: two of my own tracks made the cut, Paws and a private edit of HI-LO's REESE. Selector's privilege. Judge for yourself whether they belong.If this mix does something for you, share it with one person who needs a proper hour of techno. That is worth more to me than any algorithm.SebastiaanThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy

Midnighters,What a week. Friday on the Tomorrowland rooftop with Lilly Palmer was everything I hoped it would be. The terrace filled as the sun dropped, the energy built hour by hour, and handing the night over to Lilly was one of those moments that stays with you. Thank you to everyone who came through, said hi, and made it what it was. Nights like that are why I do this.This week's show carries some of that same weight. It opens with HI-LO and Saint Joshua before Oliver Huntemann brings Brutal on Senso Sounds. There's Pan-Pot on Second State, Sam Paganini on his own JAM label, and Simina Grigoriu on Drumcode. I close the hour with Planetary Assault Systems in an Adam Beyer and Wehbba remix, a proper way to bring it home.Full tracklist and streaming: https://www.1001tracklists.com/source/80bhhv/the-midnight-project/index.htmlWhich moment catches you?
