Hard to pigeonhole, but this duo have a definite old-school rave vibe. They're an eclectic blend of rave, breakbeat, 2-step, grime, ragga, electro, dubstep and booming ghetto tech. (And they often mention Happy Hardcore as an influence, but we'll pretend we didn't hear that). Pirate Soundsystem are not constricted by pretensions, they just want to produce music that makes you bounce, but still manage to perfect a progressive and experimental sound. But it is all about fun: about intense build ups; chirpy basslines; heavy beats; looped samples and monumental drops. After all, their myspace tag runs as: "Do You Like cliche samples?"
