Good morning! Your Christmas Eve is about to get the right soundtrack. Episode 186 is here to carry you through the night, wherever you are and however you celebrate. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

A new live techno set is online now. It’s a 2+ hour recording from Ibiza, captured as one continuous journey. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/2025-ibiza-t...

Thanks for being part of the journey. Let’s finish the year strong. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

I've posted my book review of Dan Brown's new book www.goodreads.com/sebastiaanho...

Straight from Ibiza! youtu.be/Fd61AzLJsZ8?...

In the Ibiza fields with Bo

We open strong with the Massano & Doriann remix of “Your Mind” by Adam Beyer & Bart Skils, and from there the pressure only builds. A big highlight early in the set: Slim Black’s remix of Layton Giordani’s “Hold It Down.” www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

Some days shine. Some days storm. Today? I’m out here with Bo in the rain, choosing to make it my best day anyway. Not because the conditions are perfect, but because the attitude is. Show up. Move forward. Claim the day.

Awareness of DJs’ mental health mostly lives on conference stages and Instagram panels. Research shows real risks, yet structural support from bookers, agents, clubs, and festivals remains minimal. The industry discusses wellbeing, but the mechanisms that truly matter are still lacking.

The Midnight Project is more than listeners; it’s a worldwide movement of like-minded souls. Every week, we come together in the sound and move things forward. www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/1b...

A few hours deep into Suno and here’s the verdict: great for making funny songs about your mother-in-law, hopeless when it comes to real techno

From there, the mix flows through Joyhauser, Webbha, Phoenix Movement, ADRIANNA, and Raden (UK). Deep, focused sounds that capture the balance between movement and stillness we all search for. Listen to The Midnight Project #175 and check the tracklist here: 👉 www.1001tracklists.com/source/80bhh...

We open with My Culture by OZBEK and Zafer Atabey on Drumcode, move through atmospheric tension with Cloud by Mind Against and Tharat, and ride the driving force of Kos:mo’s Samsara. UMEK sent over Machina Motus just this Monday, and it’s an absolute standout. youtu.be/qVXkxvNOD8w?...

This week’s set is built for the real ones. The night runners, the 6 AM risers, the focused minds chasing clarity and momentum through music. That’s the lifestyle we share. No chaos, no shortcuts. Just intention and rhythm. www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/z9...

This Friday #tomorrowland #Ibiza

Every track this week was picked to elevate your mind. Avis Vox opens strong. Victor Ruiz and Mila Journée keep the drive going. Kate Hex and Reaktive bring even more fuel before I close with a private edit of a Marco Faraone remix from a Carlo Lio original. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

You're invited. Come as you are.

It's a familiar dilemma: spend your time creating in the studio, or connecting on the road. This week, I get to do both, studio time in Turin during the day, and playing at Tomorrowland Ibiza. That balance between reflection and response is where growth happens.

September skyline, half-light, low-end heartbeat. From the rooftop of Tomorrowland Ibiza, I guided you through shadows and sunsets. The island whispered, and you listened. soundcloud.com/sebastiaan-h...

Tonight, I’ll be taking over the rooftop of the new Tomorrowland Store Ibiza, an elevated space where sound meets sunset. From 19:00 to 23:00, I’ll be crafting a deep tech journey under the open sky. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/tonight-roof...

Late summer on the island carries a different rhythm. The energy shifts inward, into the undercurrent. For this session, I dove deep from haunting remixes to honest grooves straight from the floor. insessionibiza.com/episode/in-s...

Episode 168 features music from legends like Carl Cox, Riva Starr, and Adam Beyer, plus powerful tracks from ADRIANNA, Deus Deserto, Peter Pauz, and more. Whether you’re on a run, in the studio, or winding down under the stars. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

And now, the soundtrack for your week is ready www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/2d...

Techno fuels our mornings, powers our workouts, and clears our heads. Whether you’re tuning in before sunrise or deep into your flow, this episode is meant to lock you in and carry you forward. www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/1f...

New release with Emison. Play it loud! songshare.com/track/7ioyb5kg

Each show featured four Adam Beyer tracks, and this week we go out strong with “Accelerate,” “Circus Freaks,” “Boundless,” and more. It’s been an incredible journey through one of techno’s most iconic minds. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

In case you wondered. Redesign Records is on LabelRadar. redesignrecords.com/news/dkfq5ff...

You’ll hear me teaming up with Laybe, Bruno Power, and Emison, pushing forward the sound of the label we’re building for the underground. This isn’t just techno, it’s a blueprint for the life you want. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...

Mainstage live stream. What an accomplishment! Congrats, Tomorrowland team! www.youtube.com/live/NaDS3gQ...

The Midnight Project is evolving. It’s now 100% driving and focused. I would sometimes sneak in a track from a friend, even if it weren’t fully aligned with the sound. But not anymore. The show has gained real traction, and I’m receiving more promos than ever. www.1001tracklists.com/tracklist/1v...

We’re also closing strong with a heavy remix from Drumsauw, who lit up the show a few weeks ago with his guest set. His sound is back and louder than ever. And if you missed Akona’s acid mix from Saturday, it’s still echoing through the community. www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight...
