SWAY chats to I Like Music
Age 16 Sway got into the grand final of an open mic session at London's Dingwalls despite being too young to even be in the club and came second to Chester P of Task Force and the bug had set in. But he soon tired of battling and decided to start making songs between working at a part-time retail job, studying at college and composing ring tones for a company, so he began putting together his own studio in his bedroom.
After having one of his first solo tracks on the A-list upon the launch of 1Xtra, and producing half of his Mobo Unsung nominee's One's album, which was soon being played by DJ Tim Westwood & 1Xtra's DJ Semtex, Sway decided to focus on himself and began jumping on mixtapes all over London. In 2004 he set up his own a totally self-run production company and label Dcypha which would be the independent outlet for Sway's first trilogy of releases 'This Is My Promo, Volume 1', 'This Is My Promo, Volume 2', and 'This Is My Demo'. Sway's aim with this hat-trick of releases was to express and establish himself as an artist before signing to a label.
