Arcane Records reaches a defining milestone with its 100th release, celebrating the moment through a high-impact collaboration between Eli Brown and Pan-Pot. Titled ‘Coming In Heavy’, the release unites two of techno’s most commanding forces in a track engineered for peak-time intensity and global dancefloors.
A meeting of distinct yet complementary styles, ‘Coming In Heavy’ merges Eli Brown’s raw, driving UK sound with Pan-Pot’s finely tuned German groove sensibility. The result is a relentless, hypnotic production built on tight percussion, rumbling low-end, and a sense of forward motion that grips from the very first beat. It’s a track that wastes no time asserting its presence, designed with precision for maximum impact in club environments.
Since its inception, Arcane Records has established itself as a defining imprint within the modern techno landscape. Founded by Eli Brown as a platform for music that didn’t fit conventional lanes, the label has evolved into one of the genre’s best-selling forces, known for championing both established names and emerging talent while pushing the boundaries of contemporary techno.
Reflecting on the milestone, Eli Brown shares:
“Reaching 100 releases on Arcane is crazy, I started this label to put my music out as it didn’t really fit anywhere else. I’ve kept the ethos simple over the years, does the music fit in my DJ set? This has led to a diverse range in both music and artists that have graced the label, something I love! As a DJ I like to be able to move between different styles and that’s what keeps it interesting for me. I’m really proud of the label and excited to see where it goes next!”
At the core of ‘Coming In Heavy’ is a commanding vocal hook that immediately locks listeners into its pulse, evoking the charged atmosphere of a late-night London club while channeling the enduring energy of Berlin’s underground scene. As the track unfolds, its hypnotic drop drives into a euphoric, sweat-soaked intensity, capturing the kind of momentum that defines both cities’ dancefloor cultures.
For the landmark release, both Eli Brown and Pan-Pot bring their respective strengths into sharp focus, delivering a collaboration that feels both natural and long overdue. The track stands as a testament to Arcane Records’ continued commitment to forward-thinking techno and global collaboration.
Eli Brown adds:
“Pan-Pot are legends, artists I’ve always loved and respected. It’s been great working with them on Coming In Heavy. The track really feels like two sonic worlds colliding, and the result is a perfect blend of our roots. It’s a collab that has been long overdue.”
Pan-Pot echo the sentiment:
“We had a lot of fun working on the stems Eli Brown sent over. There was so much energy in them right away – ideas started flowing immediately. Since we’re good friends with Eli, it made the process even more special. We tested the track many times and the reactions were always great.”
With ‘Coming In Heavy’, Eli Brown and Pan-Pot deliver more than just a collaboration—they mark a milestone moment for Arcane Records, reinforcing its position at the forefront of modern techno while setting the tone for what comes next.
