100 Gecs (stylized as 100 gecs) is an American musical duo consisting of Dylan Brady and Laura Les.
Les and Brady met at a house party in 2012. In the winter of 2015, Les and Brady first produced music together, recording in Chicago and eventually self-releasing their first EP 100 Gecs in July 2016. Les and Brady chose the name "100 gecs" after seeing the words spray-painted on the side of a building in Chicago.
Despite plans to record more music, they were unable to find enough time until they performed a DJ set together for the 2019 Minecraft Fire Festival; following that collaboration, they continued to work on songs and released their debut album 1000 gecs in May to positive reviews.
The duo works on tracks by sending Logic Pro project files between the two, iterating songs each time. Their music has been called an "anarchic assault on the ears" that "[pulls] conventional pop tropes in every direction possible", as well as "abrasive, maximalist pop" with "elements of pop punk, nightcore, ska, dubstep, deconstructed club, trance, metal, and happy hardcore all thrown into one big internet blender".
