Consider this your official invite to the most anticipated underground event of the winter.

Taking place on Valentine’s Day weekend, AXIS Music (in partnership with AlpaKa Productions, Awsum Kulture, Inner Circle, Arder, Agora Crew, Agora Collective, OCTOV and Silent Monkey) presents Reflection; an industrial techno party boasting an orgasmically good lineup and decor designed to peak all your inner desires.

The event will be set in the unique Entrepôts Dominion venue, promising a wild and enticing evening is ahead.

Ingeniously named Reflection, this event promises a tantalizing journey deep into the workings of your mind, body, and soul. Featuring a tasty techno filled menu, the evening’s main course is sweat inducing, lip biting good.

With a brand goal to highlight female acts, headlining the night is none other than the madame of UK techno, Stephanie Sykes [Fullpanda Records]

Known for her sensual and emotional sound; this European techno vixen has graced the decks at legendary venues like Berghain, Tresor, and Corsica Studios. Currently enjoying a residency at Khidi in Tbilisi (one of the UK’s longest running after hours clubs), her arrival in our humble city is highly anticipated. As a matter of fact, Reflection is Stephanie’s first time ever playing in Montreal!  

For this not to be missed evening, the event organizers have upped the ante with a free pre party/meet and greet.

Before the show, join the crew for an intimate pre-gathering with fresh fruit and drinks in the small Dominion venue. Warm up with sets from locals KozyDaign, Max Mira and a Bonvilain pop-up shop, while mingling side by side with the UK femme fatale herself. Intended to be an open discussion geared toward women in the music industry and event production, mental stimulation is your after dark appetizer.

Turning up the heat later in the evening, supporting our girl Stephanie on decks are local side dishes S Y L A [OCTOV], D&D aka UNDFND & PRML [Ground Factory Records],  hybriid, [ Awsum Kulture], Dogme [Axis Music], and Alex Borzych [Axis Music] – that right, 5 steamy, Montreal techno powerhouses.

To further heighten your senses, Silent Monkey will be providing their almighty Funktion-One sound system along with a stunning stage designed by OCTOV. Featuring an LED mirror, an LED structure as well as enticing visuals by their VJ RØRØ, get ready to be awe inspired.

An indulgent way to spend your Valentine’s Day weekend, there is nothing more exciting than good industrial techno, strong drinks, and a provocative party atmosphere.

Topped off with a pop-up shop from Bonvilain clothing brand selling tees, sweaters and hats; Reflection is the sexy sweet yet savory winter treat both you and I have been craving.

Do you dare join me in facing the Reflection in the mirror?

I’m ready and waiting.
