The Midnight Project 223 Tracklist
Midnighters, episode 223 is here.
Sam WOLFE opens the hour with Control Delete on Drumcode, and that label sets the tone for the whole show. Six Drumcode records in sixty minutes, more than I usually give one imprint, but Adam Beyer’s A&R has been on a run this year and the selection made the case for itself. After Sam WOLFE I go into Atmos, one of mine, then Gonzalo F with Disconnect, also Drumcode, and Mark Reeve with Everything Done on Monika Kruse’s Terminal M. Reeve has been a fixture on both of those labels for years, and it shows in how easily his record sits between them.
Les Boys follows, my second track this week, both of them tested on the island this summer. Then Redraft Memories and Spanto with Oculto on Second State Audio, the Pan-Pot label out of Berlin, which gets a long run in the mix because six minutes was what it needed.
The middle of the hour belongs to Kaufmann. Easy A and Nuff Said, back to back, both on Drumcode. I did not want to split them. PETER PAHN keeps the Drumcode thread going with NOCTURE before Sheik (AR) brings Needed You on Sound Dissonance Publishing.
From there the back half opens up. Jay Lumen with Dance4Life on Arcane Music, then Carlo Lio and M.I.T.A. together on Intec, Carl Cox’s label and one that has been part of this show since the earliest episodes. Rødhåd’s remix of Edge Runner by Ø [Phase] on Modwerks comes next, two Berlin names who have each shaped the harder end of techno for well over a decade and rarely appear on the same record. Slim Black closes with Acid Source on Hyggelit Records.
See you at midnight,
