Garage covers the UK garage lineage and its American house-garage ancestry: the swung, shuffled, sub-heavy strand of dance music that produced 2-step, speed garage, bassline and the modern UKG revival. It runs from the New York and New Jersey roots of Todd Terry and Masters At Work through the London pirate-radio era to today's revival on labels like Shall Not Fade, Night Bass and Warehouse Project Records. 28 active garage labels sit in this directory, and the sound sits at 130–138 BPM with the swing that defines it.
What Garage Labels Look For
Garage lives entirely in the shuffle. Straight, quantised drums do not read as garage no matter what tempo you run them at. The swing on the hats and the placement of the syncopated kick and snare is the genre, and A&Rs hear it or they do not within eight bars. Below that, the sub-bass has to be clean and weighty enough to survive a big system while leaving room for the vocal chop that usually carries the track. Vocals are near-universal, whether a full topline, a pitched-up chop or a garage-classic sample, and clearing them matters. Arrangements are shorter and more song-shaped than house: 4 to 6 minutes is normal.
Submission Tips
Get the swing percentage right before you worry about anything else, and reference the era you are working in when you pitch. 2-step, speed garage, bassline and the modern revival sound different enough that labels specialise. Because much of this scene is UK-based and community-driven, a specific pitch that names a recent catalog release lands far better than a broad one. If your track uses a recognisable garage-era vocal, say where it came from up front; an uncleared classic is the most common reason a garage signing quietly dies.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which UK garage labels accept demos?
Shall Not Fade, Night Bass, Warehouse Project Records, King Street Sounds, Garage Heaven, Lazy Days Recordings, La Folia Recordings and Stopstart Records all accept demos and are listed in the growyour.music directory, among 28 active garage labels. Several of the historic imprints listed here (Todd Terry's Inhouse, Masters At Work Records, Swing City) are catalog entries for research rather than open submission channels, which is why the directory marks the difference on each card.
What BPM is UK garage?
UK garage generally runs at 130–138 BPM, with 2-step sitting around 132–136 and speed garage and bassline pushing toward 135–140. The tempo alone is not what makes it garage, though. The swing is. A 135 BPM track with straight hats is a house or bass record at garage tempo, and it will be heard that way. Set your shuffle before you set your BPM.
What is the difference between UK garage and house?
Rhythm and lineage. House is four-to-the-floor at 120–128 BPM with an even hat pattern. UK garage descends from American garage house but broke the kick pattern apart: 2-step drops the third and fourth kicks entirely, leaving a syncopated, shuffled groove at 130–138 BPM over a heavy sub-bass. Garage also uses vocals far more aggressively, chopping and pitching them as rhythmic elements rather than laying them over the top.
