El Khatib Shares His Best of 2025 Beatport Chart
For El Khatib, music in 2025 has been about connection - to culture, to memory, and to the places that continue to shape his artistic vision. With his Best of 2025 Beatport Chart, the Makemba Records founder shares a personal selection of tracks that defined his year.
The chart reflects El Khatib’s deep ties to Moroccan heritage and African musical traditions. Rich rhythms, a diverse set of instruments and emotional depth run through the selection, echoing influences drawn from art, travel, and everyday moments that inspire his work. Rather than following trends, the chart feels grounded and intentional - music chosen for its feeling and meaning.
Each track represents a moment that stayed with him throughout the year, whether during long studio sessions, time spent reconnecting with his roots, or moments of reflection away from the noise. Together, the selection paints a picture of where El Khatib’s sound and mindset are today.
El Khatib’s Best of 2025 Beatport Chart is available now on Beatport.
