When Automatic House appeared on Faith Beat last year, it quickly became one of our Best Albums of 2025 – shifting through deep house, after-hours tech house, hardgroove hypnosis and garage-inflected swing. Low-slung basslines, driving drums and cheeky vocal snippets gave it warmth without sacrificing focus; the loose, lived-in quality recalled DJ Sprinkles’ more pounding moments as K-S.H.E.
Be Yourself, his follow-up on Ryan Elliott’s label, is a four-track EP that consolidates the direction rather than complicating it. The title track opens in characteristic fashion – purposeful, floor-focused, moving with the same confident restraint that made Automatic House hit so hard.
Take Me To The Music maintains the hypnotic pulse across the A-side; Catch Me and It’s Time carry the flip with equal conviction. The same insatiable appetite for low-swung, classy house is present throughout, applied to a tighter format without anything being lost in the compression. Ryan Elliott’s Faith Beat has consistently championed this strain of pumping house music, and Pancratio remains one of its most essential producers.
Be Yourself is scheduled for release on 31st July via Faith Beat. Listen to and Pre-order a vinyl copy from Inverted Audio Record Store.
