The midnight sun is a natural phenomenon that occurs in the local summer months in places north of the Arctic Circle or south of the Antarctic Circle, when the sun remains visible at the local midnight. Around the summer solstice (approximately 21 June in the north and 22 December in the south) the sun is visible for the full 24 hours, given fair weather. The number of days per year with potential midnight sun increases the farther towards either pole one goes. Although approximately defined by the polar circles, in practice the midnight sun can be seen as much as 55 miles (90 km) outside the polar circle, as described below, and the exact latitudes of the farthest reaches of midnight sun depend on topography and vary slightly year-to-year.
There are no permanent economically autonomous human settlements south of the Antarctic Circle, only research stations, so the countries and territories whose populations experience it are limited to those crossed by the Arctic Circle: Canada (Yukon, Northwest Territories, and Nunavut), Greenland, Iceland, Finland, Norway, Russia, Sweden, and the United States (Alaska). A quarter of Finland's territory lies north of the Arctic Circle and at the country's northernmost point the sun does not set at all for 60 days during summer. In Svalbard, Norway, the northernmost inhabited region of Europe, there is no sunset from approximately 19 April to 23 August. The extreme sites are the poles where the sun can be continuously visible for a half year.
Midnight is the transition time period from one day to the next: the moment when the date changes. In ancient Roman timekeeping, midnight was halfway between sunset and sunrise, varying according to the seasons.
Solar midnight is the time opposite of solar noon, when the sun is closest to nadir and the night is equidistant from dusk and dawn. Due to the advent of time zones, which make time identical across a range of meridians, and daylight saving time, it rarely coincides with midnight on a clock. Solar midnight is dependent on longitude and time of the year rather than on a time zone.
In the northern hemisphere, "midnight" had an ancient geographic association with "north" (as did "noon" with "south" – see noon). Modern Polish preserves this association with its word for "midnight" ("północ – literally "half-night"), which also means "north".
Midnight marks the beginning and ending of each day in civil time throughout the world. It is the dividing point between one day and another. With 12-hour time notation, authorities recommend avoiding confusion between noon and midnight by using "midnight", "12 midnight", "12 mi", or "12:00 midnight."
The Midnight is the name of the third EP released by electronica duo Lemon Jelly, according to the insert of Lemonjelly.ky, on July 17, 2000. It was limited to 1,000 10" copies, the first 350 of which featured hand screen-printed sleeves. The tracks from the EP were later incorporated, for more accessible listening, into the critically acclaimed Lemonjelly.ky album. The cover had silver foil stamped on the inner sleeve and die-cut holes in the outer sleeve so when the record was pulled out of its sleeve, the stars twinkled in the night sky.
From 1998 to 2000, Franglen and Deakin released three limited-circulation EPs, The Bath (1998), The Yellow (1999), and The Midnight (2000), on their very own label, Impotent Fury. The EPs were a critical success, and led to the duo being signed to XL Recordings.
"Come" uses samples from "You" performed by Lani Hall and from "Country and Blues Harmonica for the Musically Hopeless" performed by Jon Gindick.
"The Midnight Sun" is episode 75 of the American television anthology series The Twilight Zone.
The Earth's orbit has been perturbed, causing Earth to slowly fall into the sun.
A prolific artist, Norma, and her landlady, Mrs. Bronson, are the last people in their New York apartment building. All their neighbors have either moved North, where it is cooler, or perished from the extremely high temperatures. At twenty minutes to midnight, it is 110 °F (43 °C) and sunny as high noon. Norma and Mrs. Bronson try to support each other as they watch life as they know it erode around them. The streets are deserted, water usage is limited to an hour a day, and their electricity is gradually being turned off. Food and water are scarce. A radio reporter announces that the police have been moved out of the city, and that citizens must defend themselves against looters, then angrily goes off script, joking that you can "fry eggs on your sidewalk and heat up soup in the oceans". The reporter is forcibly taken off air.

Subsequently, Johnny Mercer wrote the words to the song. One famous recording of the song with the Mercer lyrics is by Ella Fitzgerald on her album "Like Someone in Love" (1957) accompanied by a studio orchestra arranged and conducted by Frank DeVol. This album represents a fine example of Ella's singing from this period, recorded at the same time as her albums with Louis Armstrong.

The midnight sun is a natural phenomenon occurring in summer months at latitudes north and nearby to the south of the Arctic Circle, and south and nearby to the north of the Antarctic Circle where the sun remains visible at the local midnight. Given fair weather, the sun is visible for a continuous 24 hours, mostly north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle. The number of days per year with potential midnight sun increases the farther poleward one goes. The opposite phenomenon, polar night, occurs in winter when the sun stays below the horizon throughout the day.

Timelapse of the Midnight Sun in Bodø, Norway. The sun sets in the North and basically skips across the ocean sideways for the 1 hour that it "sets" behind the mountains. It is mesmerizing and incredible to see.

It's been almost a year now since I last made a chillstep mix so here it is - a one hour mix filled with my chillstep favourites lately! Personally I think this is one of my better mixes, the mixing is pretty much the same as in the other ones but I learned a lot of new stuff about mastering and spent more time on it than usual. As usual, the tracks were chosen by me and mixing was done with Ableton 9. Most of the tracks are available to download for free and all the links are in the description so make sure to grab the tracks you like and show some support to the artists too! The full mix can be downloaded from the link below and also the picture link is at the bottom of the description.

Adapted and re-imagined, "THE MIDNIGHT SUN" is the story of two lonely characters, "Norma" played by Natasha McConnaughey (GRAYHAVEN) and "Helen" played by Elana Williams, who are staring down their own mortality's they attempt to survive what is most certainly the end of humanity. City streets empty as the population heads north to cool climate, desperately, yet in vain, trying to escape their impending doom. You see, by some scientific anomaly, the planet Earth has begun to move closer to the sun, getting hotter day by day, hour by hour, minute by minute... This film is intended to honor and pay tribute to the classic story telling of Rod Serling. Made as a non profit, labor of love by Mourningside Productions.

I see blackness all around
Darkness coming to this town
Children crying all around
All the world is spinning around
People bring their houses down
They don’t know what they have done
I conceal, I can heal, I reveal
Don’t belong
Dreams of gold, it’s untold
I conceal
Don’t belong
I conceal
The solution is unfair and all killing is not rare
We don’t think about the core
I conceal
Just close your eyes
You will fall from the sky
There’s a place where we can carry on
