Swayzak

Swayzak

Swayzak - apparently in polish this means "union" , or so someone told us ! born 1996 london england . james taylor and david brown, friends and former work colleagues, have made music together since 1993. brown , born glasgow scotland 1966 , taylor, born london england 1967. started their own label out of lack of interest from other labels! a true union of british culture, swayzak recordings ........

First release was in 1997 bueno / fukumachi , was well received and the follow up speedboat / low res skyline was deemed a classic by many trainspotters! then went on to record "snowboarding in argentina" a long playing deep and minimal house must have. Since then swayzak have never looked back and enjoy making music still as an alternative to working.

Having released 5 artist albums, 2 dj compilations and several other projects (still waiting to be paid for some of them ! ), swayzak never shy away from making music, but often take a laid back approach hence our new album "route de la slack", a double cd of remixes and rarities.

While taylor runs the 240 volts label and records his own material under name "darkfarmer" and 'james taylor'. brown plays most weekends with percussionist francesco brini as "swayzak" and dj roger 23 as 'swayzak soundsystem' . he is also running 'voltmusik' label and planning a new venture with roger 23.
