I don’t know about y’all, but when I’m out traveling by the public transport system, I prefer take my hyperactive music levels down a notch as there’s a limit to the soundproofing quality my headphones can provide outside. I’m usually able to live past it, but as the wise prophet K. West once taught us, […]

When I first heard the name Paul Kalkbrenner, there was no particular “wow-effect” that struck me. Rather on the contrary in fact. I’ve always found it strange to heard artists, especially in the electronic world, stick to their original name. It didn’t feel right. I found it rather unappealing. I remember that evening where I […]

And now for something completely different, from me. It’s always a good feeling when you stumble across an artist on the internet who’s music you automatically love, this good feeling suddenly turns to sheer joy when you find out that this said act has released an album and a number of remixes for completely free. […]

To kick things off, I’d like to quote Milton Babbit, an American composer, who simply, purely said, “I dare suggest that the composer would do himself and his music an immediate and eventual service by total, resolute and […]

A refresher: my name is Sel, and I haven’t written for TRUANTS in ages. I can assure all my many, many fans that there has been good reasoning for this – you see one day I fancied myself as a bit of a posh gap year type and decided to do a spot of travelling […]

Yolanda Be Cool‘s We No Speak Americano was undoubtably this years biggest summer dance track to make its way into the mainstream. At times it was inescapable (I even heard a housewife sing it in Tesco) and other times rather enjoyable (check the Myd remix). As time passed I quickly grew tired of all the “ba […]

When we sit in an empty room embracing the silence, we focus on nothing but the silence. Once we leave this zone, we step into the grounds of busy streets, with cars and lights shimmering everywhere. The movement, the footsteps, engines and traffic all contribute to what I like to call “the noise of society”. […]

Now, I’d like to think if one of my best mates hadn’t introduced me to liquid drum and bass, I would most likely not be typing away here and not be interested in the music I like today. No Brodinski, no Martyn, no Flying Lotus, no Boys Noize, no Justin Bieber. No to practically everything […]

It’s always exciting to enter a new phase in your life – be it starting a new instrument; applying to universities; moving to the other side of the world; or, in my case, receiving the opportunity to write articles about music, art, and literature for a highly respected site on the net. Discovering new music, […]

Hello, I’m Ross and I’m new here! I haven’t written anything in a long time, and that I’m sure will come across in this and what ever I write in the immediate future. But I’ll get better, with practice. Anyway, let’s get to the music! I have in recent years become obsessed with old Hip-Hop, […]

“I hate music, especially when it’s played.” Jimmy Durante once famously said, the joker. Everybody loves music and anyone claiming to hate music, is a trickster. I know another case like this: anyone claiming that Palms Out Sounds isn’t their thing, is a cheat as well. There is no such thing as taste in this […]

Now my younger brother has always been the more musically talented one in the family. He plays like a million instruments whilst I just like to play with synths (not a dickhead) and dabble at at the piano. Now we often bounce back and recommend different music to each other, and he recently showed me […]
