MINDSLASH DEBUTS ON SET ABOUT WITH ‘NIGHTSHIFT’ EP

OUT NOW ON ALL STREAMING PLATFORMS

Bulgarian talent Mindslash delivers a statement of intent with his debut on Set About, presenting ‘Nightshift’ - a two-track release that distills raw techno power into pure, late-night energy. Both a reflection of his relentless drive and a showcase of his evolving artistry, this EP captures the duality of his sound: hypnotic force and emotional depth, seamlessly interwoven.

Opening with the title track ‘Nightshift’, Mindslash dives straight into the darker corners of the dancefloor. Punchy, unyielding drums anchor the production, while tense atmospheres and swirling synth layers pull listeners into a hypnotic state. Born from a difficult period working nightshifts in an alcohol and cigarette shop, the track channels his frustration into sound: he recorded the fridges, cashier desk and beeps that surrounded him, then transformed them into a cathartic, aggressive composition. In a single 10-hour studio session, he shaped these raw elements and crafted a track built for peak-time energy - relentless, controlled and a striking testament to turning struggle into art.

On the flip side, ‘Embrace’ reveals another facet of his sonic identity. Here, Mindslash channels the same power but tempers it with immersive melodic flourishes, striking a balance between rawness and reflection. The result is a track that resonates not just on the dancefloor, but also within - the kind of cut that leaves its imprint long after the night ends.

This release marks a milestone in a journey that has already seen Mindslash carve out a distinct place in Bulgaria’s techno scene. As the founder of the Technogenix event series, he has cultivated a community around his vision, curating everything from 12-hour raves to unique ship parties. On stage, his performances at leading clubs like Yalta and Plazma, as well as appearances at festivals like Street Parade Veliko Tarnovo, have showcased his ability to command crowds alongside international names.

From his roots as a DJ to his emergence as a respected producer with releases on Crypt, Invicta and Animarum, Mindslash’s trajectory has been defined by both resilience and originality. Influenced by the likes of Boris Brejcha yet unmistakably his own, his sound blends peak-time energy with melodic and psy-trance inflections - a hybrid designed to ignite and inspire.

With ‘Nightshift’, Mindslash makes his strongest statement yet: a bold new chapter on one of techno’s most forward-thinking labels. Fierce, hypnotic and uncompromising, this is techno forged in struggle, sharpened in the club and destined for the global stage.

MICHAEL CANITROT BRINGS MONUMENTAL TOUR TO LIFE AT THE ICONIC CHÂTEAU DE CHAMBORD

Heritage and innovation aligned as Chambord hosts Michael Canitrot's Monumental Tour

On September 23 , the Renaissance walls of the Château de Chambord came alive as Michael Canitrot brought his Monumental Tour to one of France’s most treasured landmarks. The evening was a fusion of architectural grandeur, technological achievement, and electronic music's very finest, reaffirming Canitrot's Monumental Tour as one of Europe's top live spectacles.

The night placed Canitrot’s artistic direction at the forefront, using Chambord as a backdrop to tell an audiovisual story about both heritage and progression. While the château provided the canvas and technology the colors, but it was Canitrot’s brushstrokes as a DJ that made the night truly come alive. With proceeds from the evening supporting the restoration of the château’s historic François I wing, the project once again proved itself as much about preservation as celebration.

Commenting on the night, he says,

“Chambord is a unique place where history, architecture, and grandeur come together in the service of beauty. More than five centuries after its creation, this masterpiece continues to captivate. To make my music resonate there and inscribe it within such a setting will remain an unforgettable experience.”

With Château de Chambord now part of the Monumental Tour’s growing story, Canitrot continues a journey that has already left its mark on landmarks such as Notre-Dame de Paris, Mont-Saint-Michel, the Eiffel Tower, Paris’s Palais Royal, and Zaragoza’s Basílica del Pilar. That vision resonated stronger than ever at Chambord, where centuries-old stone met cutting-edge sound design in a night that, too, will stand the test of time.
