Episode 175 of The Midnight Project is live now. It's a high-energy journey built on fresh tracks, clean sound design, and focused intent. 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. You’ll also hear my private edit of **HI-LO**’s *REESE*, plus unreleased tracks from **Joyhauser**, **Nadai**, **Estora**, and **Endica**.

### Guest Mix: Kai State

The second hour of the show on DI.FM is in the hands of **Kai State**. His guest mix delivers groove, energy, and his unique signature sound. [Tune in](https://www.di.fm/shows/the-midnight-project?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com) today at 4 PM (CET) on DI. Experience the whole two-hour journey, first hour by me, second hour by Kai State.

### Opening for Paco Osuna

Tomorrowland last Sunday. A weekend hosted by the excellent [Carly Wilford](https://www.instagram.com/carlywilford?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com) for [One World Radio](https://www.instagram.com/tomorrowland%5Foneworldradio/?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com), just before opening for Paco Osuna. Unforgettable energy.

On Sunday, I had the honor of playing before [Paco Osuna](https://www.instagram.com/pacoosuna/?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com) and [Francisco Allendes](https://www.instagram.com/allendes/?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com) as a special guest at Tomorrowland, which [Carly Wilford](https://www.instagram.com/carlywilford?ref=sebastiaanhooft.com) hosted with One World Radio. The connection with Ibiza, the energy, and sharing the decks with one of the true masters of our scene reminded me again why we do what we do.

The lifestyle we live is built on discipline, health, and creative drive. We show up early. We keep our bodies strong and our minds sharp. We make our lives the same way we play our sets, with intention, passion, and a sense of rhythm.

Stay focused. Keep building. I’ll see you next week.
