Techno Live Sets

We got our hands on a special set from this summer: Francesco Fontanella at Rehab Italia, recorded on 16 July 2026.
Francesco Fontanella is a DJ and producer from Naples. He was born in 2001, picked up DJing and production young, and earned his first bookings in the clubs of his home city.
His catalogue sits between driving peak-time techno and the rawer, hypnotic end of the genre. Prospect Records carried two of his 2025 tracks: “Inspiration” in July and “Hello Mr.” in September. Before that, Poland’s Frequenza Records put out “Return To Rave” and “ITM” in February 2023. “On My Mind” was his debut on VKT, and LETS TECHNO records released his remix of IN-sane’s “Indigenous Minds”.
Rehab Italia is a small club where Fontanella and many other artists play. The project describes its mission as “musical rehabilitation”: its DJ sets go out over social media, the look is raw and minimal, and the roots are in the underground, away from the commercial circuit.

RHAPSODIE is French, based in Berlin, a techno architect. With a clear debt to rave.
The records back that up. “Here I Come”, released on Reload Records in 2025, went to number one on Beatport’s Peak Time hype chart. There are further releases on Taron Records, Volume Berlin Records, and Animarum, plus a remix of Didier Sinclair’s “Lovely Flight” for Serial Records. Her edits may travel furthest: free-download reworks of Foremost Poets’ “Moonraker” and Fedde Le Grand’s “Put Your Hands Up For Detroit” are among the most played tracks on her SoundCloud.
Away from the studio, she holds a residency on Radio FG’s Maxximum show and played Rave The Planet in Berlin in 2026. That year, she also launched SORORHA in Geneva, a techno night built around sisterhood. The same idea runs through her Berlin bookings, from Symbiotikka’s all-female Goddesses edition to the FLINTA party Fem-All at Der Weiße Hase.
KitKatClub is the constant. The sex-positive Berlin club has been going since 1994. Symbiotikka is on Wednesday night, and RHAPSODIE is a regular there. She calls the club her “happy place”. This recording comes from one of those Wednesdays.

Midnighters,
This one is personal. I've been playing Groovecreator's music for fifteen years. His records have filled countless hours of this show and many nights behind the decks. Bringing him to you as a guest on this bonus episode feels like a full-circle moment.
He's sharing something special: a live recording from his set at Playground during Burning Man 2026, captured in Black Rock City. If you couldn't be in the desert this year, this is the closest you'll get to dancing in the dust at sunrise.
The set opens with an unreleased Chicago acid track he made with house legend Roy Davis Jr. From there, it takes you through a Led Zeppelin bootleg, a club edit of Radiohead, and Prydz's Pink Floyd rework. Then it lands on "I Feel Love" by Moroder and Donna Summer, the record that arguably started it all. The last stretch builds into peak-time house and techno, ending with Carl Cox's remix of "Talamanca," a nice nod to the man behind Playground.
Big thanks to Groovecreator for trusting us with this recording. If it moves you, follow him via https://linktr.ee/Groovecreator and let him know. Nothing means more to an artist than hearing that it landed.
Now for the part that makes me happiest. On Saturday, 3 October 2026, Groovecreator joins me on my rooftop at the Tomorrowland Ibiza Rooftop Sessions. After fifteen years of playing his tracks, I'm still letting that sink in.
He plays from 20:00 to 21:00, with Rebeca Ark before and after. You'll find us at the Tomorrowland Ibiza Store in the Ibiza Gallery, Platja d'en Bossa. The guest list is free, so bring your crew and sign up here: https://www.fourvenues.com/vanesa2/events/tomorrowland-ibiza-rooftop-sessions-03-10-2026-WXGT
If you come because of the show, come find me and say hi. Putting faces to the names I see in the comments every week is the best part of what we've built together.
Midnighters, this community grows because of you, so tell me what you think. Which moment got you: the Zeppelin bootleg, "I Feel Love," or that unreleased acid track? If you've been to the Burn, share your best playa memory. Coming to the rooftop? Say so in the comments so we can find each other.
Tag a friend who needs this set and share your favourite moment with #TheMidnightProject.
The regular show is back on Wednesday.
Until then, see you on the dancefloor.
Sebastiaan

Two hours of pure atmosphere on the Tomorrowland Rooftop, under his alias Seb_h.

With residency experience alongside international headliners and a weekly radio audience of 60k+ listeners, he brings both craft and crowd to every booking.

Sebastiaan Hooft live from the Tomorrowland rooftop in Ibiza, the opening hour before Lilly Palmer. Recorded at Playa d'en Bossa, 19 June 2026. Driving, groove-led techno from the host of The Midnight Project, setting up the night as the terrace fills and the sun drops over the island.
