With Black Sun, Pfirter returns to MindTrip with a focused and uncompromising four-track statement built around gravity, pressure and controlled repetition. The EP explores techno not as release, but as a sustained state of tension and inward motion.
Each track unfolds through locked grooves and subtle variations, creating a hypnotic continuum where restraint and density define the movement. Black Sun sets the core and anchors the EP’s gravity. Event Horizon reinforces the irreversible pull, pushing the system toward a point of no return. Gravitational Collapse follows, compressing the energy and intensifying the pressure, before Singularity closes the record, establishing an immediate sense of motion and immersion.
Produced through a hardware-centered workflow and captured as performance rather than assembly, Black Sun reflects Pfirter’s approach to techno as a physical, immersive and timeless experience.
This is MindTrip!

Located about 11,960 light-years away in the constellation Canis Major, it’s a glowing cloud of gas shaped by powerful winds from a massive Wolf-Rayet star at its center.-
