Truss is the primary alias of UK producer Tom Russell. His sound takes influence from the UK’s hardcore and rave scenes, melded with a reverence for past innovators like Neil Landstrumm, Cristian Vogel and Surgeon while resolutely pushing towards new and futuristic constructions/structures. His recent works with Perc, Bleaching Agent, Donor and his younger brother Tessela have seen him use techno as a starting point for explorations into the associated territories of noise, hardcore and tear‐out italo. The wider musical world has also been drawn to Truss’ sound, which has resulted in remixes for highly‐ regarded bands such as Liars and Depeche Mode. A DJ set from Truss uses techno as a starting point to encompass all the sounds, genres and approaches that have gone before it.
