Inside the Beatport Top 10: HUGEL, Cloonee, Prospa and Wu-Tang Clan Rule August

Want to know what's actually getting hammered in clubs right now? The Beatport Top 100 is the closest thing dance music has to a scoreboard, and this week's top 10 tells a clear story: house and tech house own the moment, Cloonee and Prospa appear twice each, ANOTR's No Art label holds two slots, and somehow both Ultra Naté and Wu-Tang Clan are on the chart in 2026. Here's the full rundown.

1. Ultra Naté, HUGEL & Imael Angel – “Movin' To The Sun” (Make The Girls Dance)

The chart-topper pairs French producer HUGEL with the Baltimore house legend behind 1997's “Free” — their second link-up after his remix of that classic. Premiered at HUGEL's Coachella set, it became one of the most-Shazamed songs in the world within weeks, and it's the lead single from his debut album Twenty One. Classic house vocals over Afro-Latin drums: that's the 2026 formula in one track.

2. Michael Bibi, KETTAMA & Wu-Tang Clan – “MYSTERY OF RAW” (CircoLoco Records)

Fresh off their first-ever b2b at Tomorrowland in July, Bibi and KETTAMA flipped “Da Mystery of Chessboxin'” into a tech house weapon — with the Wu officially credited. It only came out August 14 and it's already top three.

3. Rafael & Adam Ten – “Beat Goes On” (Maccabi House)

Tel Aviv's Adam Ten keeps his Maccabi House imprint hot with this groover alongside label affiliate Rafael. No press campaign, no big feature — just DJs playing it everywhere. Sometimes that's all it takes.

4. SAPIAN – “Reason Why” (Prophecy)

The debut release on Prophecy, the new label from Prospa, and a statement first signing. SAPIAN's swaggering house cut proves the Leeds duo have A&R instincts to match their production chops.

5. Route 94 – “4Get The Girl (Mellizos Remix)” (Defected)

The original spent years locked on a laptop Route 94 couldn't access before finally getting an official Defected release in April. Now Texas twin duo Mellizos have given the “My Love” producer's lost track a second chart life with their August rework.

6. Rooléh – “Want To Know” (No Art)

Amsterdam's Rooléh had this one buzzing in sets well before its August 14 release — he even co-hosted Pete Tong's Global Dance HQ on BBC Radio 1 with label boss ANOTR back in July. Sample-driven house with real soul in it.

7. Tristan Henry, Cloonee & Prospa – “Good Girl” (Hellbent Records)

One of the most hunted IDs of the year, chased through sets from Ibiza to Coachella before its July release. It's also the first single from Cloonee's upcoming debut album, which he announced at a sold-out Red Rocks show. Big year, that guy.

8. Cloonee & Prospa – “Free Your Mind” (CircoLoco Records)

Cloonee and Prospa's other top-10 entry has been charting since March — it's the title track of Prospa's debut album, the first full-length ever released on Rockstar Games' CircoLoco imprint. Five months on the chart and still in the top 10 is rarefied air.

9. Kolter – “Hey Everybody (Back In The Dance)” (Positiva)

Cologne's Kolter — the artist formerly known as DJOKO — lands on the legendary Positiva imprint with his biggest crossover moment yet. Minimal house heads have rated him for years; he also records with Chris Stussy as Stussko, and given everything going on in the Stussy camp this week, that whole corner of house music is having a moment.

10. ANOTR & 54 Ultra – “Talk To You” (No Art)

The marathon runner. Out since early March, this disco-house cut crossed over hard — top five on Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic chart, a UK Top 40 entry, and tens of thousands of TikTok videos. Nearly six months later it still won't leave the top 10, and honestly, fair enough.

The takeaway? Groove-first house is running the table, labels owned by artists (Hellbent, No Art, Maccabi House, Prophecy) are outperforming the majors, and a great vocal — whether it's from 1997 Baltimore or 1993 Staten Island — never goes out of style. We'll keep checking the chart, so you don't have to pretend you knew about track six already.
