House / Deep House / Minimal duo project based in Czech Republic & Sydney, Australia

In the summer of 2005 Czech national Michal Růžička alias DJ Schwa landed in Australia with a bag full of vinyl, a string of DJ gigs and the promise of unchartered territory ahead. Soon after he met local producer Nick West; they discovered they shared a passion for electronic music and Michal offered Nick the opportunity to join him as a partner on his newly formed label Beef Records. United by a love of producing and playing, and disillusionment with a music industry obsessed with genres, they soon began performing and working together in the studio under the Shades Of Gray moniker.
