The Midnight Project #076

As the sun rises, so does a new episode of The Midnight Project. Let's explore some exciting chart-topping news and tips to enhance your techno-wellness journey.

Episode 076 begins and ends with the dynamic sounds of the Codex label, a powerhouse in cutting-edge techno and a sibling label to IAMT where I release music. Codex, established by Spartaque and Greenjack, not only frames our auditory adventure but also echoes the innovative spirit of my releases.

Wellness Tip of the Week: Coffee and Sleep

Many of you know my love for specialty coffee, which is often featured in my morning Instagram posts. But how do we balance our caffeine intake with healthy sleep patterns? Here are three tips:

Timing is Key: I stopped consuming caffeine eight hours before bedtime to ensure its stimulating effects wear off in time for a restful sleep. Interestingly, I've discovered that while I thought I was sleeping well after consuming caffeine, it significantly lowered the quality of my sleep.

Moderation Matters: Enjoy your coffee, but remember, moderation is key. Stick to a reasonable amount to avoid disrupting your sleep cycle. Through research, I've found that the ideal daily limit is a maximum of two cups for men and one cup for women.

Quality Over Quantity: Choose fresh coffee. Not only does it taste better, but it also typically contains fewer additives that can impact your sleep. Additionally, specialty coffee is not burned during roasting, which is healthier.

Remember, The Midnight Project is more than a radio show; it's a lifestyle. Let's keep chasing our dreams with the right balance of beats and wellness.

I am looking forward to connecting again next week. Until then, keep your coffee special and your nights peaceful!

Warm regards,
