Afaik at least some of those flickering lights use Christmas card ICs. You know, those annoying noise makers.
A well-known digital way of producing noise-like signal would be an LFSR.

Those are available as complete ICs as well, but they can be difficult to find.
Then there are analog methods like amplifying amplifier/resistor noise and amplifying zener diode noise. Pic related.

I'd use a small microcontroller, though.
