Established in 2014, 81 is a sub-label to ‘one of Britain’s most established underground bass music labels’, Swamp 81, owned by dubstep pioneer and forward-thinker, Peter Livingston aka Loefah. 81 pushes the dark, post-dubstep, bass-heavy, stripped-back house, techno and footwork sound Swamp 81 has shaped, to the rafters, with ‘the most upfront underground music’ it can offer. Stand out tracks on 81 include Paleman’s ‘Beezeldub’, Lamont’s ‘Titanic’ and Cousin’s ‘Ruff Draft’.
Review: Oh my goodness, if you're a fan of old school grime, dubstep and of good music in general you'll love these tracks. Both on different tips 'Ar Kid' is violent and twisted and will have blasting those gun fingers to the warping dubstep drops and catchy hook which will have you becoming fully fledged hype man. 'Ships' is one of those track with that magical balance of complex simplicity, between the clicks, drips and whirls there's so much space in the track allowing you to focus on Kwam's exceptional delivery.
