DJ Metatron - State Of Me

Celebrating not just Ryan Elliott’s faith in a vital new generation of producers and DJs, but five years of his own meticulously curated Faith Beat imprint, ‘Have Faith’ is a bold new chapter for the Panorama Bar veteran. Before relocating to Berlin, Elliott cut his teeth spinning Detroit, so he pays it forward on this 34-track compilation, shining a dazzling spotlight on the local scenes and breaking new artists that promise to keep American dance music moving as it lurches towards a new era. When he was based in the US, Elliott realized how distant Europe felt for homegrown artists – not just philosophically, but physically. Two years ago, he set about excavating the US’s underground architecture, pooling contacts and tracks, and urging his wide network of friends to send over their best recommendations. The compilation coalesced organically, and pulls together a diverse canon of producers, offering them the global exposure they urgently need. Eighty percent of the tracks are from up-and-coming US-based artists from the Midwest and beyond, so with the 10th release on his label, Elliott lays down a glimpse of a possible future of underground house and techno that counters the scene’s contemporary Eurocentricity. This music was born in the US, and its evolution might still be in American hands.

PREMIERE: Sansibar - D.T.T.

'Power' is the next four-track EP from Miami’s ctrl+opt. The release weaves through a futuristic interpretation of dance music that highlights heavyweight bass in "Turn It Up," while the other tracks rely on a house backbone and left of center stylings that touch on IDM, electro and genreless experimentations.

“Power” itself churns with a chuggy, hypnotic pulse, “Get Ya Own” brings an ominous, funky edge, and “Pray4U” unfolds as a minimal, epic arc.

Released: May 21, 2025

Skkkrt! Step Ball Chain is officially running redlights and disregarding road rules with Anderson in the driver's seat. The US born, Berlin based producer and deejay offers up Cut The Breaks, a 5 track EP bursting at the seams with ruff, tuff and techy freakouts, never neglecting the groove. Transcending genre, the low key king of the underground reaches into new realms sprinkling in electro, tech house and bouncy techno with a nod and a wink to hip hop. 

Sleek & sexy; the opening title track is as fresh as it gets, a soldering of prize elements from different electronic ecosystems. Whiplash drums and vocal chops that weave their way through the record, also cropping and popping up on the B Side. Pedal to the metal for Giving it All and Visconti Bounce; playfully traversing dancefloors with tongue & cheek turboness and rhythmic exploration that will drive you wild. 
Smell the rubber burn for STEP15; let Anderson strap you in and take the wheel.

The second track on the New Dawn EP is called Home Alone and it is probably my favourite one on here.

It's giving me 3am dark room, big sound system vibes which is really where I want to be IRL.

It's definitely been too long since I was in an environment like that and listening back to this one is making me need to book tickets to a night out asap.

Hope you all have a nice Thursday and are looking forward to a smashing weekend.
