Drumsauw taps straight into that energy with a mix that’s built for movement. His signature sound, tight, rolling, and unapologetically heavy, makes this the perfect way to launch into spring.

Hey Midnighters,

We’ve hit a major milestone: Episode 150 of The Midnight Project is here! To mark the occasion, I’ve pulled together a set that’s packed with power, emotion, and a special focus on some of the most inspiring women in techno today. They come from different parts of the world, but what bonds them is undeniable: bold sound, relentless drive, and deep connection to the crowd.

Amelie Lens opens the female energy wave with Never The Same. Straight out of Belgium, her sound is intense, hypnotic, and instantly recognizable. She’s followed by another Belgian heavyweight, Charlotte de Witte, who brings The Realm, fresh from her debut album and loaded with her signature acid grooves and emotional depth. These two artists are not only shaping the Belgian techno scene, they’re leading it globally.

Then comes a standout moment: Mariana BO from Mexico with Deep In Your Mind. This one’s already a classic. She blends her classical music roots with a mainstage edge, delivering something melodic yet massive. It's that kind of track you feel in your chest and remember long after the night ends. And finally, Sweden’s Ida Engberg closes the set with New Day, a beautiful reminder of how techno can be both soulful and strong.

Different sounds, different countries, but one spirit. This is what unites these women, the courage to create something unforgettable and the power to connect people through music.

Hey Midnighters,

Ibiza is locking in its residencies, and the summer energy is building fast. From Amnesia to DC-10, the lineups are rolling out, and the island is gearing up for another legendary season. But one club that’s making waves is UNVRS. It’s something else entirely—pushing the boundaries of what a superclub can be. We expect next-level production, immersive experiences, and a sound system built to shake the soul.

This week, I’ve been deep in the studio, refining my sound and drawing inspiration from the artists in this episode. Adam Beyer’s precision-driven techno always delivers, while Marco Faraone and Felix Kröcher bring their signature power to the mix. And of course, my remix of Bismark & Sygma’s ‘Chrome’—a track I had a lot of fun reimagining.

Where are you listening from? Drop a comment or leave a review—it helps more Midnighters find the music and keeps the energy flowing.

Hey Midnighters,

Episode #145 is all about one thing—Crome. This week, I’m beyond excited to unveil my extended remix of Bismark vs. Sygma’s ‘Chrome’—a track that’s been a staple in my sets and now has my personal touch.

This remix was born out of pure passion, crafted between the energy of Italy’s underground and the deep focus of my Ibiza sessions. It’s driving, hypnotic, and built for the dancefloor. If you’re ready to experience it, you can pre-order it now:

Hola!

The sun dips below the horizon, painting the sky in deep orange and soft pink as the first beats of the night begin to echo across Ibiza. March is a special time on the island. The streets are still quiet, the beaches are mostly untouched, but the air is charged with the promise of summer. The energy is shifting, the first arrivals are here, and the music never stops—it simply transforms. In Session Ibiza – March 2025 captures the transition from winter's calm into the vibrant pulse of the season ahead.

This five-hour journey is born from the island itself. It's more than a mix—it reflects Ibiza's evolving rhythm. As the show unfolds, it mirrors the island's flow, from deep, hypnotic beats that echo through the quiet streets of the Old Town to uplifting energy that builds on the terraces of beach clubs preparing to open their doors.

The journey begins with the deep, melodic sounds of Andre Rizo, Noir, and S. Salter, setting the foundation like the first warm breezes of spring. Their tracks drift over the landscape, creating an atmosphere of effortless groove, the kind you hear in the background of a quiet drink at a hidden bar, where conversations are filled with plans for the season ahead.

As the night deepens, the show moves into the island's heartbeat. Kelis, Return To Saturn, and Tamir Regev introduce a more vibrant energy, their sounds pulsing like the anticipation in the air as Ibiza's legendary venues start testing their sound systems again. Cedric Salander and Ariel R bring in hypnotic rhythms, transporting you to the beach clubs where the first sunset gatherings of the year take place, a mix of locals and early travelers swaying to the music, knowing they are witnessing the beginning of something special.

The journey intensifies with Momo Khani, Cafe De Anatolia, and Arco, blending organic and electronic textures—music that feels at home in a laid-back daytime set and in the late-night hours when the stars seem closer than ever. This is the sound of Ibiza preparing itself, excitement bubbling beneath the surface.

As the set progresses, the energy builds, moving through the hypnotic beats of Ron Carroll, Yves Murasca, and Darin Epsilon, blending house, deep grooves, and progressive touches. By now, the island is alive—the energy is unmistakable. The legendary artists return, their music rippling through the air like waves on a moonlit sea. Sebastien Leger, Green George, Andhim, and Eelke Kleijn take the soundscape into deeper, more driving territory, the kind of music that fuels late-night sessions in intimate clubs, where the real magic of Ibiza happens.

The tempo shifts again as the final hour approaches, climbing towards the night's peak. Robyn Balliet, Archie B, and Karretero bring in sounds that would be at home in the peak moments of a sunrise set, when the dancefloors of the island are at their purest—where people lose themselves in the music, where time stands still, where nothing else exists except the beat and the moment.

This is Ibiza in March—a season on the edge of change, a place where music is not just played but felt. Session Ibiza—March 2025 is a journey through this energy, a five-hour story of rhythm, anticipation, and the endless pulse of the island.
