Swamp 81
Swamp 81 is a United Kingdom record label run by the dubstep producer and DJ Loefah. Its identity is rooted in bass music, with a focus associated with dubstep and electro. The label’s name references Operation Swamp 81, a London-wide policing campaign against burglary and robbery that became widely associated with the unrest and race riots of 1981, giving the imprint a title tied to a specific moment in the city’s social history.
Swamp 81 has been described as a sister label of School Records. Among artists linked with the label in available sources is Sumgii, whose presence reflects the label’s interest in club-oriented electronic music.
Separate from the label, the name “Tracy Freeman” is also used in other contexts: Wikipedia identifies Tracy Freeman as the birth name of the British Italo disco singer and actress Tracy Spencer. That biography concerns a different subject, including her discovery by Italian producer Claudio Cecchetto and her 1986 hit “Run to Me,” and does not describe Swamp 81’s activities.
