Today, New York City-area studio wizard and guitar czar Les Techno shares a brand new single “What ya Done”, part of his upcoming album, Flowers For Dystopia, set for release in late July.
“What Ya Done” is the second single from his upcoming album ‘Flowers For Dystopia’. Lyrics for the chilling track came after reading about how billionaires prepare for Armageddon. This paired with galactic synth work and 80s guitar riffs make for an otherworldly experience.
Les Techno’s album presents songs of social satire with sonic influences ranging from hip-hoppy grooves and 80’s punk-wave to electric guitar psychedelia and electronic music. Les Techno’s sound is sometimes compared to Nick Cave, XTC, Psychedelic Furs, Tame Impala and Cage the Elephant.
This first release from the album, “Flowers for Dystopia”, was produced while the COVID-19 virus raged in NYC. The song swept into Lester’s mind late one night in a dream.
Les Techno’s recent single “Edge of the World” reached #20 Indie DRT Chart and #144 Global DRT Chart in December 2019. “Edge of the World” was added to Obscure Sound’s Best of Sept 2019 playlist. His single “Where Were You?” was featured on Detroit’s WRIF “Underground Sound System” in 2018.
