    A punk, raw attitude stands out since the very beginning. It feels like in that gloomy evening of October 2012 an improvised stream of sounds and manipulations came together in a spontaneous way, resulting into some thick sonic matter, vibrating with the magnitude of the earth, nostalgically carrying folk memories of a forgotten past, echoing through the clarinet of Raffaele Amenta.
    On the flip side DJ Sotofett embarks a monumental journey into wild and exotic sceneries, transforming the ruins of the old continent into an afro-persian mantra, thank to the hypnotic percussions of Cosmic Neman from Zombie Zombie (recorded by DJ Gilb`r at the parisian Versatile Studios) and the vocoder-filtered vocals of Paleologos.

    This is the point of view on Tru West by Martin Hopkins, core member of the project :
    "Tru West is an open musical project, a platform where music heads can freely speaks their loudest noises and visions. Every Tru Wester should bring into the project music of any kind of form.
    To celebrate the fall of our beloved western civilization we used tape recorders, samplers, records, modular synths, a clarinet and an open mic.
    Sounds from different ages and places get processed and dubbed through any kind of technology or sound technique, shifting the space of sound, passing through music from tapes, field recordings, overdubs in the studio and the open mic of the studio room
    itself.
    Using the limits of analog technology we try to create something new, engaging chain reactions through clips, mics and sidechains ,sculpturing a fat mass of sounds that slowly finds its way out from the boiling magma of creation “.
