Ring Ring, Call Them Up, Tell Them About the New Trends

If you haven’t heard the raw sounds of Sleigh Bells as of yet, you must’ve been living under some kind of well-isolated rock since November. After their CMJ performance last year, that duo with the cute vocalist in disco pants was all anyone could talk about. I’ll be honest with you, I didn’t really know […]

Taking My Mind Hostage

What is that weird sound that makes me feel all warm in my belly, that mysterious music that makes my hips shake and confuses my sense of gravity? It’s what Truants call, a next-level Sound Pellegrino Thermal Team mix tape. For those of you who didn’t drown in the seas of new music last week and […]

The Life & Death of Disco Music III: Back to Basics

So, following some perhaps justifiable criticism from much-valued TRUANTS reader, ‘Eric’, I’m going to take the time to go back to disco roots. Before the music even started – this might shed some light on the many stereotypes and supposed urban myths surrounding the genre! If you want to see this criticism from Eric it’s […]

The Sun Will Be Shining When We’re Finally Free

As I watched The Drums calmly take the stage a couple of weeks back in Amsterdam, I felt a certain feeling of déjavu tingle my senses. With neatly buttoned up shirts, impecably matched simple get-ups and a font to match their drumkit that vaguely reminds me of HediSlimane.com, it felt like Dior Homme had been […]

Sous Les Pavés, La Plage!

Three out of four readers of this interview must have disco-moshed to the music the Age of Consent band members put out not too many years ago.

The original idea for the upcoming Teki Latex‘s new release was to have Mowgli and Zombie Disco Squad’s Nat Self both produce a rap song and get them to remix each other’s. The project took a complete unexpected turn and Teki decided to abort […]
