The Fund
What You Need, What You Get
Relentless and Pirate are joining forces to support the next generation of DJs and producers by offering £500 in studio credit to 5 artists aged 18 to 30. This credit can be used at any Pirate studio across the UK.
Targeting DJs and producers who are pushing the boundaries in electronic music, applicants are required to submit a 50-word bio and either a 20-minute genre-defying mix or two demo tracks.
Awards will be distributed in multiple rounds throughout the year. Check for the next application period below. This staggered approach means there is no need to submit works in progress; if your application isn't ready, simply apply in the next round for the best chance. You may apply for more than one round of the scheme, but the music or mix you submit must be new each time.
