Listen: Tesla Boy Reveal New Single "M.C.H.T.E"

Russian new wave/synth-pop trio Tesla Boy have revealed a brand new track called "M.C.H.T.E.", the second single taken from their forthcoming album 'The Universe Made of Darkness', which will be out on May 21.

The song has been added to our current playlist www.koolrockradio.com.

Comprised by bassist Leo Zatagin, drummer Mike Studnitsyn, and lead singer/keyboardist Anton Sevidov, Tesla Boy is a product of the next generation Russian Youth growing up in '80s and '90s Moscow, influenced by formerly inaccessible Western music against a backdrop of dramatic changes taking place in Russia when the Cold War came to a close and the Soviet Union was no more. A new acceptance of music, fashions and culture from all round the world embraced Western pop culture that had an overwhelming impact on the young musicians who hungrily sought out as much pop and synth music from abroad as they could.

From their beginnings with the release of debut single 'Electric Lady' and first LP Modern Thrills in 2010, the sounds of Tesla Boy’s global influences are immediate, with their acclaimed follow-up double single Split/ Another Light, produced to a high level with deep catchy melodies and disco undertones.

Tesla Boy carry a shiny pop sensibility, combined with sleek and sophisticated production that takes their nostalgic synth sound and punching soul hooks into the new wave era of EDM with global appeal.

'M.C.H.T.E.' is a bouncy and percussion heavy track with rhythmic, funky bass lines and synths that flicker across the surface. Have a listen below.
