Swayd
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Swayd (aka Richard Meyer, born in November, 1970 in Lausanne, Switzerland), is a record producer and songwriter of pop music and electronic music. He has worked as a personal programmer for Mutt Lange in productions such as Britney Spears ("Don't Let Me Be the Last to Know"), The Corrs, ("Breathless", "Irresistible" and "All The Love In The World"), Celine Dion ("If Walls Could Talk") and Shania Twain, and as a remixer for The Young Gods.
In his current productions, two tracks from his personal album Beyond Borders will appear on the Cafe Buddha 2 compilation featuring artists such as Afterlife, Bill Laswell and Natacha Atlas.
The album Beyond Borders results from a long travel through India. Franz Treichler, initial member of the band The Young Gods quotes it like:
“A music like a bridge between two cultures, a hyphen between two worlds apparently distant, a music that finds here its identity, full with heart and well far from an opportunist collage”.
"Une musique comme un pont entre deux cultures, un trait d'union entre deux mondes apparemment éloignés, une musique qui trouve ici une identité propre, pleine de coeur et bien loin d'un collage opportuniste". Franz Treichler, The Young Gods.
Swayd is involved in various projects where he works as a producer, arranger, sound designer, remixer and programmer.
