Premieres flowing, the connection is strong, and this one marks the beginning of something special.\n\nThe Midnight ProjectTomorrowland Ibiza Resident DJ, and host of The Midnight Project and In Session IbizaSebastiaan Hooft | Tomorrowland Ibiza Resident DJSebastiaan Hooft\n\nWe open with Ritmolicious, the first track from a brand new four-track EP that **UMEK** just sent me. This is the start of a four-week series, with one track from the EP featured in each episode. Each one gets its own moment and space.\n\nSurrounding that exclusive opener, you’ll hear music from **Emmanuel Miro** , **Nikoretti** , **C-Poch** , **Return Fall** , **Monika Kruse** with **Voodooamt** , **Rich Coote** , **German Carrizo** , **ZEREN** , **Nico Banfi** with **Techmo** , **CHANCEKNOT**(thanks to Martine), **YellowHeads** , and **Ali James**.\n\nYou can find the full tracklist and players here:\nhttps://www.1001tracklists.com/source/80bhhv/the-midnight-project/index.html\n\n### Focus: UMEK\n\nUMEK is one of the true pillars of techno. Starting in the early nineties, he helped shape the European electronic movement and put Slovenia firmly on the global map. Across decades, he has remained a driving force through his own productions, influential labels, and constant support of new talent. What stands out is not just his history, but his present. UMEK continues to evolve, refine, and deliver music that works where it matters most. Ritmolicious reflects that perfectly. Stripped back, powerful, and locked into a groove, it is a track that sets a new trend.\n\n### More than a radio show\n\nEach episode is available as a podcast and https://www.sebastiaanhooft.com/the-midnight-project/, where you can revisit it at your convenience. Additionally, more than 60,000 listeners tune in each week to https://www.di.fm/shows/the-midnight-project alone.\n\nAs we're heading to episode #200 with The Midnight Project, we can safely say that it's more than a radio show. Every week, Midnighters from around the world tune in, discover new techno, and return for the next episode. This growth is **organic** and driven by **consistency**. The energy lifts even higher during festival season, guest episodes spark new connections, and new listeners continue to find their way into the project. This is a living community, and it exists because you show up.\n\n### Your favorite artists\n\nIf you are discovering artists who truly fit The Midnight Project's sound, send them my way. If you are an artist, or know one, who is ready to contribute a focused, **meaningful guest mix** , I’m open to hearing from you. This platform grows through intention, quality, and people who care deeply about the music. Hit reply!\n\nThank you for listening, for sharing the show, and for being part of this journey every Wednesday.\n\nThe next episode is already in motion.\n\nSebastiaan",
