SWAY was, and still is, one of the key labels when it comes to groovy and funky techno, sometimes referred to as tribal techno back in the day. Now it's time for a new generation to discover the first batch of releases that laid the foundation for it all. Many of these tracks are still heard in DJ sets today, and we want to bring them back with a 2026 remaster so they sit perfectly alongside newly released music. Let's continue the legacy!

SWAY 100 marks a major milestone for us. To celebrate, we invited CJ Bolland, Cari Lekebusch and Marco Bailey, three long-standing figures in techno, to remix their favourite Hertz tracks. With over 30 years each in the scene, it's a real pleasure to have them all contributing to SWAY. The remixes bring a strong and varied take on the originals. As a bonus, Hertz revisits Alone from the early SWAY 4 and updates it for 2026. Back at SWAY 10, we marked the occasion with Mixes 1 & 2. Now, for SWAY 100, it feels right to continue with Mixes 3. Enjoy.
