Laura Les

Laura Les is a pivotal figure in the 21st-century hyperpop movement, both as a solo artist and as one half of 100 gecs. Her sound identity is defined by extreme digital manipulation, including nightcore-style pitched vocals and bit-crushed instrumentation.

This aesthetic choice is deeply tied to her personal narrative as a transgender woman, using technology to navigate and transcend voice dysphoria. Her career began in the SoundCloud underground under the moniker osno1, where she developed a signature style of 'debauched digital celebrations' that blended pop hooks with noise and industrial textures. Critically, she is recognized for deconstructing pop music and rebuilding it with a DIY, internet-native sensibility. Her influence is vast, bridging the gap between experimental electronic music and mainstream pop, and she remains a central icon for the 'sad girl' and 'online' aesthetics. Her work is characterized by a high-energy, maximalist approach that challenges traditional notions of fidelity and genre boundaries.
