Swamp 81 thread

[untightled]

I'm just getting into this style of music on the Swamp 81 releases and similar labels... and damn I've been missing out, now i gotta go buy the whole swamp81 back catalogue!

Lol yeah, I'm in the same boat as you are mate.
The sound never really interested me until recently so yeah, I've got a lot of catching up to do haha. Bummed I missed out on most of it.

Whilst I'm a big fan of a lot of Swamp 81 releases, I always feel like there's somebody out there doing that style better. It's hard to explain. Maybe it's just that a lot of the tunes get seriously rinsed months before they come out that the tunes lose their effect on me. Swims for example. I've bought it, but I think I'd have to leave it some months before I started playing it, whereas I hadn't really heard much of "Music Deep Inside" and I'm really feeling that at the mo. Same with "Work Them" when it came out.

Like I said, hard to explain the feeling that I have about Swamp. Don't take this as a knock though, still think it's one of the most consistently quality labels out there. Maybe it's the fact that they were a really figurehead in the 130-135 movement that has started, and now that sound seems to be everywhere, its lost its impact. I'm rambling anyway haha.

Big up to Loefah and everyone else involved.

Totally get what you mean though, I kinda have the same. Sicko Cell is also a good example, I bought it, but just before it got released literally every dj was playing it and when it finally came out it kinda lost it impact for me already. Still a big tune though, but I dont think I will ever get that feeling again that I had the first time I heard it.

After sicko cell I havent really bought any of the swamp releases, maybe because of that, i dont know, but now that Ive heard their newer releases I can say that that was a big mistake haha.
Only 2 swamp plates Ive got right now are sicko cell and badman, gotta stoxk up on those other ones as well soon! (Too bad the mean streets ep is sold out everwhere already)

Step yo game up again son.

The last release on Tube 10 by Blackwax had some serious swamp vibes. Reccomended!



B-Side is just as good if not better but couldn't find it on youtube.

all caps is a new label that has got a release out and another one coming very soon, and hopefully some more exciting stuff after that! kinda aimed more towards the techno sound though R&S put some good stuff in a similar vein to swamp aswell

For some reason I've really never gotten into this style of the genre. I've tried and tried, it's run and supported by Loefah, so I know deep down that what I'm hearing is quality music, but I really am having trouble to get the sound to sound exciting / appealing to me. Hopefully it will come with time.

Can't get enough of the Soul What remixes

With you on this, there really needs to be some sort of Soul What Remix EP. Hope there is in the not too distant future.

Chunky literally just confirmed that the Mickey Pearce Rmx will be out on vinyl soon on Swamp81!

Here's hoping it comes with the Pearson Sound Rmx or the VIP! (or both!)
