Ryan Elliott is a Detroit-born, Berlin-based DJ, producer and label founder who has spent over two decades bridging the underground dance music cultures of those two cities. After leaving a career as a financial analyst at Ford Motor Company, he moved to Berlin in 2009 and quickly became a resident at Berghain and Panorama Bar, releasing music on Ostgut Ton and later founding his own imprint, Faith Beat, in 2019. His sets are known for moving fluidly between techno and house without committing to either, and his label work actively champions emerging US talent.
Ryan Elliott released 'Have Faith', a 34-track compilation on his Faith Beat label spotlighting emerging US underground house and techno artists, marking the label's fifth anniversary.
Beatportal published a feature on Elliott tied to the 'Have Faith' compilation, highlighting his ongoing mission to platform American dance music talent from the Midwest and beyond.
Ryan Elliott was added to the lineup of an August 2026 weekender alongside Ben Klock and SHERELLE, according to Resident Advisor.
