Anglo-Scottish electro-tech duo Swayzak have transformed into a trio for upcoming new single Keep It Coming, adding sound engineer Kenny Paterson to front line duties.

The long term Swayzak backroom boy is heavily involved in the new album and will also be joining James Taylor in place of David 'Brun' Brown for live shows, while Brun devotes more of his time to being a father.

Chatting to Skrufff last year, the Scottish producer hinted at changes ahead, admitting 'we're quite mature in our years'.

"If you're 20 years old and this world is brought to you, you have a completely different attitude to it all, but we're more interested in chilling out than having fame," he said.

He also spoke openly of his own mixed feelings towards his own childhood, growing up in Glasgow.

"It's a bit of a hindrance being Scottish sometimes because many people have this inbuilt hatred of the English which is such a waste of time," said Brun.

"When I go back to Scotland I always hear people saying 'fucking London this, fucking London that' and that really annoys me. It's certainly an interesting city but I could never move back there; there's a good vibe but it just reminds me of unemployment and depression," he said.
