Loefah / Thefft / Rich Furness / Horza
If you take a look at the progression of UK Bass music in the last decade, Loefah is one of a rare few people who has always been at the forefront. Alongside partners Mala and Coki he started and continues to run the infamous DMZ brand. In 2009 he also began his own imprint, Swamp 81, which has been one of the key labels to be pushing the boundaries of what is loosely known as UK Bass Music. Artists such as Skream, Boddika, Ramadanman and Joy O have released new material through the label, pushing Loefah’s importance in the development of UK electronic music even further. We cannot wait to host him at The Shipping Forecast, the more prevalent question is, what will he play? Support comes from recent Swamp 81 signing Thefft and Abandon Silence residents Rich Furness & Horza.
