Pitch, Scotland’s conference of hip hop and underground culture, takes place on 27 August 2022 at three venues in the heart of Glasgow’s creative East End.

Pitch Scotland will forge new networks across genres and disciplines, celebrate the culture and diversity of voices reflecting contemporary Scotland and empower members of the hip hop and underground communities to exchange knowledge and skills as they progress their careers.

Aiming to inspire and encourage all from age 16 and above, Pitch Scotland will feature representatives from across the music industry, skills workshops, panel discussions, speed-meeting sessions and performances, including DJ sets, spoken word artists and a live showcase.

Pitch Scotland is presented by the country’s new music champions the Scottish Alternative Music Awards (SAMA) in partnership with Creative Scotland, acclaimed new music festival FOCUS Wales and New Skool Rules (NL), the largest international urban music conference outside the United States.

New Skool Rules co-founder Henca Maduro is among the prominent industry figures and artists taking part in Pitch Scotland, as well as Martyn Flyn of LuckyMe, the world-renowned record label and arts collective he co-founded in Glasgow 2 decades ago, and producer-engineer Marrik Shearer (Nines, MoStack, Maverick Sabre, Wretch 32), founder of Tottenham’s Front Room Studio. Talent from Scotland will be represented in Rotterdam this October when New Skool Rules returns for its 10th anniversary edition.
