Staying true to his London roots, Niteplan is the amalgamation of the UK’s grassroots sounds – from jungle and grime to house and garage. Deeply rooted in London’s underground culture, his music channels the raw energy of the scenes that shaped him. What began with jungle, breakbeats and grime instrumentals has evolved into a distinctive sound that fuses these influences – whether that be house, garage, breaks or beyond.
Never confined to a single genre, Niteplan’s sets and productions blur boundaries, weaving together influences from across the spectrum of UK dance music. This open-minded approach is mirrored through his alias Pirate Material – a project dedicated to his multi-genre roots, spanning jungle, 140, grime, UK techno and beyond. His body of work, from house and garage to jungle and ambient, reflects a deep respect for the foundations of rave culture and a desire to reimagine them in new forms.
This has been proven time and again under his Pirate Material alias, where he has played for some of the UK’s most respected underground institutions, including DJ Mantra and Double O’s Rupture LDN and Loxy’s Cylon Recordings – both cornerstones of the jungle and bass movement. These experiences have been instrumental in shaping his identity as a DJ grounded in sound system culture and genre-defying energy.
As Niteplan, his journey has taken him across the globe – from Space Ibiza, OFF Sonar, and Eden Ibiza to Forbidden Forest, ABODE Malta, and WAT Festival in Toulouse. With multiple Beatport #1s, including releases on Jamie Jones’ Hottrax and his own label Nitestore, Niteplan continues to push a forward-thinking sound under both aliases that celebrates the full spectrum of UK dance music – where the unexpected is always part of the experience.
