LOUGHLIN

Loughlin began his production journey in 2019 at the age of 14, taking early inspiration from the UK rap scene, until 2024, after heavy influence from studying production at college, he found a new sound, landing in the minimal jump-up drum and bass scene. Studying at Bath Spa under influence of many major producers in the South-West of England has allowed him to create original music with a sound described as gothic and heavy. Now being over halfway through his studies at university, he looks to begin DJing in Bristol, throwing his own event at the legendary Crown, which will be the jumpstart to his professional career.

The music speaks for itself, dark, grotty and fat basses, accompanied by large ambient spaces and heavy drums, including a mixture of jungle grooves and plain old 2-step. He takes inspiration from Sound system culture and incorporates the whole history of the scene, while using modern influences from artists like Simula, SMG and Molceular (to name a few).

Looking to the future, he looks to begin releasing tunes and sharing his love for the sound with the world as well as playing up and down the country. Also, he looks to incorporate visual art into his sound to give a full experience to the music, not just the sounds, but also how they look inside the mind of Loughlin.
