Nyra

Nyra makes the kind of music that feels like a physical push. It is unapologetic, high-energy house and techno that prioritizes the 'swing' of the rhythm above all else. His tracks often feature thick, rubbery basslines and percussion that feels like it’s constantly leaning forward, creating a sense of unstoppable momentum. It’s the sound of a producer who understands exactly how to manipulate a room full of people.

What sets him apart is the 'no-frills' effectiveness of his arrangements. While many electronic artists get lost in sound design for its own sake, Nyra focuses on the groove. He often incorporates clever, soulful vocal snippets or disco-inflected loops, but he strips them of their sweetness, re-contextualizing them into something tougher and more industrial. It’s a blend of Sheffield warehouse grit and London club polish.

If you are looking for a place to dive in, the Canoe series is the definitive document of his sound. These releases are masterclasses in functional dance music that doesn't sacrifice personality. Start with Canoe 15 for a modern look at his high-gloss production, or go back to the Feeling Rhythm EP to hear the raw, rhythmic DNA that has defined his career since the beginning.
