NTO and Mont Rouge Unite on New Single ‘I Cared For You’, teasing upcoming album for release late 2026

Following the deeply personal release of "Fior Di Macchia" in May, NTO has collaborated with Mont Rouge across "I Cared For You’ out 26th June via All Night Long / Believe - taken from his forthcoming album, due for release in late 2026.

The single sees the French melodic techno pioneer join forces with one of electronic music's fastest-rising acts, Mont Rouge. The anticipated release will also follow with a remix package from acclaimed international dance music talents.

A leading figure in French melodic techno, NTO has established himself on the world's biggest stages, including Tomorrowland, Printworks, Sónar and Dour. His acclaimed album APNEA (2021) has surpassed 150 million streams, includes a gold-certified single, and earned support from leading media outlets including Mixmag, Télérama, DJ Mag, Jack and Radio FG.

With ‘I Cared For You’, NTO expands the emotional narrative introduced on ‘Fior Di Macchia’, pairing his signature melodic sensibility with the fresh energy of Mont Rouge. Blending deep melodic songwriting, meaningful and instantly memorable vocals, and powerful peak-time electronic production, the collaboration bridges introspection and dancefloor impact in equal measure.

Mont Rouge have quickly emerged as one of the most exciting names in melodic and Afro House. The Swiss duo have built global momentum through releases on labels including Abracadabra, Insomniac and Ultra, while amassing more than 18 million streams across platforms in 2024 alone. Supported by artists such as Diplo, Swedish House Mafia, Keinemusik and CamelPhat, and performing more than 120 shows annually worldwide, they continue to redefine the new wave of electronic music through hypnotic grooves, deep synth work and emotionally driven productions.

Born from a natural creative connection between both artists, "I Cared For You" showcases the strengths of two distinctive musical worlds coming together. The result is an uplifting and emotionally resonant record that points toward the broader vision of NTO's highly anticipated next album.

Following recent tours across Colombia and Mexico, and a busy European summer schedule, NTO continues his return to the stage with performances across Barcelona, Milan, Amsterdam, Berlin, Bordeaux, Marseille, Paris and beyond throughout 2026.

‘I Cared For You’ is available everywhere on June 26th via All Night Long.
