Pyrate is an up-and-coming UK garage artist based in West Yorkshire, born and raised in the Leeds area. A multi-instrumentalist, producer and DJ, his music embraces and pushes the sounds of 2-step garage, breakbeat, house and speed garage.

He showcased this with his self-released debut EP titled ‘Patterns’, a euphoric amalgamation of speed garage, jungle/breaks and house. Pyrate’s production ensembles passionate drums, thick basslines, and stunning melodics into a beautiful, yet hard hitting union which sets him apart from the status quo of modern garage. In 2024 he released his bootleg of Toxinate’s ‘Nope’ through Dazed, resulting in wide-spread recognition in the garage scene, peaking
