“I really tried to give this sensation of driving through a storm on an autobahn 250 km/h.”
Maike Depas
Depas sincerely conveys this feeling through the music, giving the track an aggressive vibe, yet euphoric at the same time. It’s like an auditory driving on the edge.
However, field recordings and vintage sounds are also an important part of this music. They add a sense of reality and complete the image of the autobahn. This track lives and breathes with the sounds of a Ferrari F8 recorded by himself, which adds an extra impetus to this music. Maike Depas doesn’t just “borrow” the atmosphere of the 90’s, he revitalizes it. Trance waves created with Roland Jupiter-X add a nostalgic charm to this track.
Overall, “Midnight Ride” is a creation that reflects the art of Maike Depas and his passion for music and techno. He combines different elements and styles in his unique sound, creating music that makes you feel the speed and adrenaline as if you are actually in “Midnight Ride“. This track is a great example of modern techno music with echoes of Detroit Techno classics that is definitely worth hearing.
