Hertz – Sway 2025 – The Mix


It’s time to celebrate another incredible year with a brand-new compilation and DJ mix from label boss Hertz, showcasing some of the finest highlights on SWAY. We stay committed to the true spirit of techno — and judging by the worldwide DJ support, the scene clearly agrees. This year we even hit the prestigious Number 1 spot on Beatport’s Techno Raw chart several times.

Grab the full DJ mix or pick up the individual tracks to craft your own dance-floor magic. And as always, we’ll keep delivering funky techno — built for the floor and wired for intelligent minds!

SWAY 86-87


You’ve heard Benkt on previous Ace Trax releases, but this is his first full EP, and what a release! It kicks off with Moonshine, a fast, energetic track with a stabbing lead that builds throughout, a true floor killer. Next is Some Things Matter, capturing the vibe of early Swedish techno while keeping the production fully modern. Finally, Emperor of Change delivers a tribal-inspired groove topped with a fiery vocal. A complete EP that really stands out!


Time for another Ace Trax, and once again we’re happy to welcome new talents to the SWAY label. We kick off with DJ XL and his powerful beats, followed by Rayo (ITA) with a debut that’s all about the chord and arrangement. Oscar Sanchez returns with another energetic banger, and finally Agent Orange DJ delivers a special Deep Mix of Contact High. All full A-sides, or Ace Trax, as we like to call them!

Hertz & Oscar Escapa – Habemus


Hertz & Oscar Escapa join forces for the first time to deliver an amazing collab on SWAY! Two seasoned producers who need no introduction, bringing three completely different tracks and vibes on this EP. It kicks off with a powerful chord-driven lead track, followed by an infectious tribal groove, and closes with a high-energy banger. A rock-solid EP all around!

SWAY 82-84


Agent Orange DJ made his debut on SWAY about a year ago, and now he’s back! Four rock-solid tracks that truly deliver. It’s hard to pick a favourite from this batch, as each one is packed with energy and smart arrangements. We’re thrilled to once again bring you the power of Agent Orange DJ!


Back with Ace Trax again, bringing four amazing tracks for you. This time from artists you’ve heard before on SWAY. Kicking off with Fractious and a truly strong banger, followed by Frank Jon, who once again delivers that hard-groove vibe from the early 2000s. Tom Rotzki returns with a track in the same great style as his previous full EP on SWAY. Finally, Benkt closes out with a deep, well-produced cut. Four killer tracks to play and enjoy!


We welcome Spanish producer Oscar Sanchez to SWAY! He delivers four strong and groovy bangers with an old-school twist. With previous releases on labels like Unity and Say What?, he has already made waves in the scene. It’s hard to pick a favourite, as each track delivers serious energy, whether it’s the horn, the stab, the vocals, or the final cut that brings a bit of everything. A truly solid release all around!

Hertz – Old School – all platforms!


Hertz returns with an old-school stormer, bringing back the spirit of the early SWAY days, but with a modern production twist. This time, a vocal has been added to complete the vibe. We also welcome M.I.T.A. on remix duties, delivering a truly old-school interpretation. Filtered disco action collides with filthy beats. And to round it off, another brand-new Hertz track, built on one of his signature chords from the chamber of techno. This darker cut completes the package!

SWAY 79-80

We welcome Mr Coalman to SWAY with this debut release. It’s a solid 4-tracker packed with atmosphere and vibe. Deep, yet maintaining drive and energy throughout. Each track is crafted with precision, showcasing his unique touch on hypnotic techno. A powerful debut from start to finish.


Kristian Heikkilä is back on SWAY, this time together with CDTRAX. They’ve put together a very compelling package of four tracks that each take you in a different direction. The title track, “Ascend,” is a rare piece of raw, deep, and truly hypnotic techno. The three following tracks bring a groovier touch, bass-heavy, with hook lines in all the right places. A strong release from start to finish. Check it out!

Hertz – Fat Fingers


Hertz lays down his fattest finger on the synths and delivers an absolutely killer bassline. Combined with his signature funky techno grooves, the result is a seriously infectious track. Next up is 1979, built around a sample straight from that iconic year. Pure funky techno tool vibes from start to finish. And finally, a track that was born mid-air, somewhere between Paris and Lisbon. A funky piano stab, tribal rhythms, and dub sirens! What could possibly go wrong?

SWAY 76-77


It’s time for a full EP debut from Melvin Spix on SWAY. After his celebrated appearance on Ace Trax, we knew we had to hear more. Now he’s back with a full-force release, topped off with a powerful remix from Agent Orange DJ. Late Night Rave delivers peak-time energy, raw groove, and relentless drive. Don’t miss it.


Exactly one year after his powerful debut on SWAY, Italian techno heavyweight Hollen is back with a brand new release. Over the past 12 months, Hollen has been on a creative tear, dropping wicked tracks. We’re proud to welcome him back to the label, stream/download now and experience the next chapter.
