  • Loefah brings Swamp81 to Cable image
  • At the end of next month, We Fear Silence will host a label showcase from Loefah's influential bass imprint, Swamp 81. Loefah is a member of the infamous DMZ crew, who run both the label and club night of the same name and have been a major part of the dubstep scene since its beginnings. Since Swamp81 was started a couple of years ago it has been gently moving away from the more traditional sounds of dubstep towards the blends of dubstep, UK funky, electro, garage and house championed by young producers like Ramadanman–something that is well demonstrated in the night's lineup. Joy Orbison is a man very much in this vein, and so is Boddika, AKA Alex Green of Instra:mental. Also supporting in the main room are Hessle Audio co-founder Ben UFO, FaltyDL, Shortstuff and Reecha, with Chunky on the mic. 502 Recordings are taking over the bar with label boss Oneman, Fis-T, Jay Weed, Visionist, Asbo and a live set from Teeth. Tickets for We Fear Silence Swamp81 are available from RA tickets.
