The Midnight Project #216

Midnighters,Four Natura Viva Black records in one hour. That was not the plan when I started digging this week, but the label is on a run right now, and it shows. Daniele Papini's Hidden Source opens the show, AKKI and Kaspar hold the middle with Horizon, and DJ Dextro closes everything down with Unbalance. When one imprint bookends your whole set, you pay attention.In between, Drumcode does what Drumcode does. Rafael Cerato and Charles D bring Right Now, a track I have been hearing everywhere this summer, and Mark Reeve drops a tool called Work that is exactly that: no frills, all function. Listen also for the two Arcane cuts back to back around the halfway mark. KASIA and Shalev called their track I Like It Raw, and after Linska and Duss set it up with Criminal, raw is precisely what you get.The stretch from Sophie van Hayden's The Void into Ignacio Arfeli and Tommahawk's The Unknown is my favorite moment this week. Two titles about darkness and uncertainty, and somehow the most hypnotic ten minutes of the hour.If this episode does something for you, comment and share it with one person who needs a proper hour of techno. That is worth more to me than any algorithm.SebastiaanThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacy
