Toro Y Moi frontman Chaz Bundick is about to get a whole lot o’ asses shakin’ this fall when he heads out on a North American tour under the guise of LES SINS, his dance floor alter ego. LES SINS’ debut LP entitled Michael is set for release on November 4th. Inspired by cartoon and movie soundtracks, the largely instrumental album explores classic dance and pop music traditions. Catchy, repetitive vocal hooks gel with beats and synth work influenced by house, techno, French electronic, and ’90s hip-hop production. Bundick made the album over two years and recorded everything in his home studio. You can pre-order your own copy of LES SINS’ Michael by visiting Carpark Records (and click on the tab under “Buying Options”).
