Hertz – Maverick


The first SWAY release of the year comes from label boss Hertz himself. This three-track package showcases the full diversity of his production style. The title track Maverick takes you on an emotional journey, with a goosebump-inducing breakdown that blooms into a stunning string section before lifting off again with a powerful new bassline. To round things out, we’re adding two more funky cuts to the mix. Bass De Abrao is all about driving bass and a playful, groove-packed arrangement, while the final track leans into a more minimal vibe — but still hits with big, bold sounds. 2026, bring it on!
