Techno​-​Superstar

from Destroy All Conifers by Quintessence

/

about

This was me and Phil’s attempt to make a dance song. The lyrics were inspired by the stupid raps put over fast tempo dance songs in the 90s (think Aqua or Scooter).

This is the second recording we did of Techno-Superstar (the first went mysteriously missing), which was recorded on a Tascam four-track recorder.

lyrics

He’s just an average guy
Walking down the street
And if you get in his way
He’ll step on your feet
Well he’s got the rhythm and the beat
And if that’s not enough, well he’s also got teeth

He’s a techno-superstar
He lives in the 90s
He’s a waste of space when it comes down to the 80s

It’s just a medium feed
That he needs to proceed
And if that’s all you need in this E-machine
Well it’s the bass line hitting home with the feet
And if that’s all you need then he surely has to be...
A techno-superstar

He’s a techno-superstar
He lives in the 90s
He’s a waste of space when it comes down to the 80s
