Swifta Beater: Momentum

swifta beater
Activity: The Momentum funding will support a series of activities from Swifta Beater in 2016 starting with the creation of Swifta Beater‘s first artist driven and collaborative EP. It will feature a number of acts from across the UK scene and the funding will help towards the costs of recording, mixing and mastering of the project. The Momentum Music Fund will also be used for the promotion and marketing of the project across TV, radio, online and press. Finally this year of activity will culminate in a four date launch party / tour across the UK.

I’m so over the moon to be selected by PRSF as one of the Momentum funded artists. The PRS Foundation is one of the few organisations that provide the much needed to support to make things possible for talented musicians that struggle financially and help them create music, promote their projects and embark on tours. This funding will really enable me to take my career to the next level and I’m proud to have been selected to carry the torch for the Midland’s Grime scene. I would strongly encourage all music makers to get involved and look into what the PRS Foundation can do for you.

Biog:

Swifta Beater‘s name is the UK producer’s name on everybody’s lip’s following his most recent production for JME‘s underground Grime smash hit, Man Don’t Care ft Giggs which not only featured on JME’s Top 20 UK album but has also now gone certified Gold across Europe and has awakened a whole new generation of music lovers to Swifta’s uniquely distinct sound.

However Swifta’s momentum has been steadily building for years and so far he has had production on six BBC playlisted tracks and multiple plays and support nationally on BBC 1Xtra, BBC Radio 1, RInse FM, Kiss FM, Capital Xtra and many more regional stations. He has also been featured across the media in numerous outlets including Fader, Complex, Mixmag, FactMag, RwdMag, GRMDaily, SBTV and more.

He has previously and continues to work with the cream of the UK crop (JME, Wiley, StayFresh, Dan Kroll, P Money, Cleo Sol, Tempa T, Kano, Lady Leshurr and many more) and he has also recently had international collaborations with Jamaican artist Chino Mcgregor (son of Freddie Mcgregor), Miami artist Nyla (Sean Paul & Major Lazer collaborator) and New York based Wu Tang affiliates, Parental Advisory.

He also plays as a DJ across not only the Midlands and Northern nightclub scene but also down South from London to Bristol; and has performed as Tour DJ with StayFresh, as well as at a number of international DJ dates, including Ayia Napa and most recently at Paris Fashion Week 2015.
