About

Hi, I’m Jay’Son Swopes, known in the scene as CLE Jay. I’m a Cleveland-based musician, producer, and audio creator who loves turning ideas into polished sound and engaging visuals. I’ve built my craft through hands-on recording, mixing, and sound design, collaborating with artists across hip-hop, R&B, pop, EDM, and beyond, and sharing the process through video, socials, and live work.\n\nWhether I’m in the studio, handling live sound, or coordinating a release, I bring a marketing mindset and a passion for storytelling to every project. I build strong artist brands, deliver clean, ready-to-release mixes, and help creators reach new audiences with thoughtful content and compelling sound.
