SWAY opens a new chapter in its history, passing 100 releases with this 101st release. We've tried to stay true to the vibe we called techno 30 years ago, and still do today. This release also sees another debut act on the label: CRTB, bringing some really interesting ideas to the table. One track with a synth bassline, one with more percussion, and one deeper cut. By now you know what to expect, three tracks ready to play!

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.

From the Ace Trax series last year to a full release on SWAY this year, its time to unleash the funky, rolling, and energetic vibe of Camilo Diaz on a full release. This one brings back the essence of the early SWAY sound: raw and powerful. Each track features a well-crafted break in the middle, lifting the energy even higher when it drops back in. Just make your selection. If youre looking for a true hands-in-the-air moment, 3er Impacto might be the one, but honestly, any track here will do the trick. Guaranteed!
