Panteros666 and MCYL unleash a rave-centric powerhouse collab with “POW,” their new single on HARD Recs, dropping on November 15. Known for redefining euro dance in the digital age, Flanders-born, Paris-based Panteros666 teams up with MCYL, a transatlantic vocalist whose eclectic style weaves a thread through techno, afrobeat, amapiano, reggaeton, and R&B. Together, they craft a nostalgic yet forward-thinking sound that recalls the high-energy rave era of the ‘90s while speaking directly to today’s dancefloors.
“POW” pulses with Y2K-inspired scat vocal loops, vintage hard house grooves, and thunderous basslines, backed by siren-like rave leads and MCYL’s kinetic vocal riffs. The track made a striking debut at EDC Las Vegas earlier this year, an electric introduction that echoed Panteros666’s desire to reconnect rave music with its euphoric roots.
The single is a fitting addition to Panteros666’s HARD Recs catalog, following his popular releases “Cyberlink 2XL,” “Boa Reconstructor,” and “Let Uwu Go,” which garnered widespread acclaim throughout the scene.
Panteros666 builds anticipation around the release with a colorful breakdown of the track: “Forget everything you know about party tracks, ‘POW’ is another kind of high energy eurodance anthem. Reliving the golden days of eurodance, ‘POW’ brings the fun in full force. Jive in an oversized suit and tie like it's 1994 all over again.”
Describing “POW” as an anthem that “cheers up the dancefloor and pumps up your mood,” Panteros666 invites listeners to embrace the spirit of ‘90s eurodance with fresh intensity. This latest release solidifies his place at the helm of the rave resurgence, with his music weaving the euphoria of classic eurodance with the energy of a modern main floor.
On tour now, Panteros666 is bringing this high-energy ethos to major venues like ADE’s Crane Session in Amsterdam, Fuse Brussels, and Mondo Disko Madrid, culminating in his highly anticipated first A/V live show in Paris next April.
MCYL is coming off a sold-out Intercell showcase party at ADE, performing alongside two of the scene’s brightest talents, Bad Boombox and Mischluft. His collaborations with the former, “Boots” and “Make It Wet,” have both surpassed the 1 million stream mark. MCYL’s most recent “Knees Break” collab with Malugi has garnered support from Sarah Story, Danny Howard, Arielle Free, and Marlon Hoffstadt, to name a few.
With “POW,” Panteros666 and MCYL aren’t just reviving the rave; they’re redefining it, bringing together nostalgic echoes of ‘90s dance with a contemporary, genre-crossing edge. As Panteros666 continues to inspire the next wave of eurodance enthusiasts, his boundary-pushing soundscapes and magnetic performances prove that the rave spirit is alive, evolving, and ready to ignite dance floors worldwide.
