After Hours 726 is hosted by Hypnotised and guest DJ Don Creek.

Episode 726 of After Hours presents a deep and hypnotic progressive house journey led by Hypnotised on Scientific Sound Asia. The platform operates as an Asian electronic music radio station, DJ agency and promoter, while also publishing music news and connecting audiences across the region and internationally.

Based in Ghent, Belgium, Hypnotised has developed a reputation for melodic and narrative-driven sets. His approach combines emotional depth with technical precision, focusing on long-form progression and controlled energy that unfolds gradually across each session.

His performances at events such as I Love Techno and 10 Days of Techno have reinforced his position within the underground scene. These appearances reflect a style centred on tension, extended transitions and carefully structured flow rather than short-form impact.

Alongside long-time collaborator PatriZe, Hypnotised has helped shape After Hours into an established platform for progressive and melodic house. The show continues to reach an international audience through syndication on TM Radio in the United States, XBeat across Europe, Cosmos Radio in Germany and Scientific Sound Asia in Vietnam.

Beyond the show, he co-curates AH Digital Essentials on Proton Radio with PatriZe and hosts Energetic on Progressive Beats Radio. These projects extend his presence across multiple platforms while maintaining a consistent focus on progressive house.

As co-founder and label manager of AH Digital, Hypnotised remains closely involved in supporting emerging artists and shaping the label’s direction. The catalogue reflects a clear identity built around progressive house and melodic club music, with a focus on continuity and long-term development.

Recent studio work continues to reflect this direction. His remix of Weird Things alongside PatriZe on AH Digital reinforces his signature progressive approach, combining layered melodies with steady rhythmic control. Releases such as his remix of Blissing on SINCITY and Classico with Selected Grooves on OLD SQL Recordings further highlight a consistent focus on atmosphere and structure.

Collaborative work, including his remix with Frank Savio of The Master of Time and Thoughts for COMET Records, expands this palette while maintaining the same core principles. Across these productions, his sound remains grounded in progression, balance and detailed arrangement.

Through After Hours, AH Digital and his continued release output, Hypnotised maintains a clear artistic direction rooted in melodic progression and long-form storytelling. Episode 726 reflects this approach, delivering a refined progressive house journey shaped by experience, precision and a deep understanding of atmosphere.

Guest DJ Don Creek.

Set to release his Open Eyes EP on AH Digital at the end of the month, this week’s guest is Swiss producer and DJ Don Creek. From an early age, music has played a central role in his life.

Beginning with instruments such as drums and guitar, he later moved into electronic production around 2012, where techno and house became the foundation of his sound. Over time, his approach has evolved across Progressive House, Indie Dance and Downtempo, each style contributing to a broader and more personal musical identity.

His upcoming Open Eyes EP reflects this progression. The title track is built around a steady Progressive House framework, balancing melodic structure with subtle rhythmic movement. Remixes from Morphday and RNDØM expand the concept, introducing variations in energy and arrangement while maintaining the core atmosphere of the original.

Recent releases highlight the consistency of his direction. Tracks such as Fragmented and The Journey on Cosmicadence, alongside Boson on Eternal Beats, focus on groove-led progressive structures with clear melodic phrasing. His remix work, including reinterpretations of GBrown’s Just Like Yesterday and Nice-D’s Lost in You, further demonstrates his ability to adapt his sound while preserving its identity.

At the same time, productions like Lose Control and Kizito explore a deeper Melodic House & Techno sound, adding contrast to his catalogue through more atmospheric textures and layered harmonics. This balance between progressive drive and melodic depth continues to define his output.

With the Open Eyes EP marking his debut on AH Digital, Don Creek brings a refined and evolving sound shaped by progression, atmosphere and careful arrangement, aligning naturally with the label’s focus on melodic and progressive house music.

The first hour with Hypnotised opens with Yohai Mor’s Nedarim in the Taylan remix, setting a smooth Progressive House tone. Mateo Tapia and LEM (IT) follow with Dreaming Big and Sounds Of Love, establishing a steady melodic flow early in the set.

Momentum builds through Sashy and Tabrissel’s Intuition in the NiQLA remix, alongside goodkidd and Zeleon, where Metallic Clouds and Inverted Lights maintain a layered and atmospheric progression. Tanuus (AR) and Soul Relay continue this direction, reinforcing a consistent rhythmic structure.

The first hour closes with Cami'L’s Opiate and Sound Fusion’s Mothership, keeping the groove focused and cohesive while maintaining the melodic depth associated with the show.

The second hour with DJ Don Creek opens with his own productions, Zunesha and Muchana, introducing a personalised Progressive House direction. Morphday and Agustin Pietrocola continue the flow with Morph and Wild, maintaining a steady energy.

The set develops through Redspace and Olven alongside Juan Buitrago, where Thread and Forever Mover reinforce the melodic structure. Michael A’s Sunbeam in the Haft remix adds a deeper layer, while Gero Pellizzon and Tato Seco maintain the groove with Mechenikal.

The closing stretch features Cedren and Manu-L with Echoes in the Rauschhaus remix, followed by Reskide and Last Passenger’s Stray, introducing an Organic House element to finish. Across both hours, the episode delivers a smooth and consistent Progressive House journey with subtle variation in tone and texture.
