Quiet and relaxing

Psychill 3

The music of Purl always emerges between the ephemeral and the eternal and 'Form Is Emptiness', his first work for Archives, is the perfect example. With each sound in its right place, but turning impulsively, as if was alive and conscious. Drawing breathtaking soundscapes with immersive vibes and chilling emerging pad sounds, slowly blossoming into colorful and vibrant sonic vistas.

For nearly a decade, Tycho has been known as the musical alias of Scott Hansen, but with the release of Awake – his second LP for Ghostly International – the solo project has evolved into a three-piece band. Relating closer to post-rock than ambient soundscapes, the record is situated in the present, sounding more like Hansen than drawing from his influences. “This is, in many ways, the first true Tycho record.”

Following 2011’s Dive LP, the San Francisco-based designer toured extensively, and with a full band on stage, his sound coalesced into a percussive, organic whole. Zac Brown (guitars, bass) rejoined Scott on the road for this tour, but it was the particular addition of Rory O’Connor’s live drumming that ultimately sent Hansen back to the studio with a more precise vision. “After the tour, I decided that I wanted to capture the more energetic, driven sound of the live show on the next album,” Hansen recalls. Bringing musicians into Tycho’s creative process was a step towards expanding his own songwriting and advancing the project beyond its current sound.

In a cabin near Tahoe last winter, Zac and Scott began fleshing out the structure of the new record, but it wasn’t until they set up shop in the hills of Santa Cruz with Rory that it all fell into place. “It crystallized the vision of how the drums would come to the forefront on this record,” says Hansen. The sound was much more stripped-down and concise with more organic instruments in the fold. Songs like “Montana” and “Awake” are a departure from Tycho’s previous material – unique to the group effort poured into the songs on the new record – while “See” and “Dye” echo ideas from previous works, bridging a middle ground between the old and new. Working with Count Eldridge, who also engineered Dive, the team could fixate on the pulses that Tycho might previously layer under synthesizers and exhume them with distinct bass and guitar patterns.

Also known for his design work as ISO50, Hansen’s visual and sonic efforts have dovetailed throughout the course of his career. “This is the first time in my life I've dropped everything to focus on one artistic pursuit,” notes Hansen. Previous Tycho releases came to fruition when an amalgam of songs were nearing completion, but Awake is where music becomes the focus and true expression becomes the result.

Fans have been salivating for Savage Skulls' alpine megajam "Dachstein" ever since heavy hitters like A-Trak and Tiesto started dropping it in their festival sets. Mashing a feel good oompahh melody into an enormous kick drum drop, "Dachstein" is perhaps the heaviest and happiest DJ weapon you'll hear all year. The hills are alive!

Right in time for the release of Pop Ambient 2017, the latest instalment in our iconic compilation series, two of its main protagonists put together our first winter mix for this holiday season: Max Würden and Thore Pfeiffer have shown a knack for collaboration before, so it comes as no surprise that their joint mix tape is a particularly flowing one -featuring cuts from fellow Pop Ambient heroes Leandro Fresco and Markus Guentner as well as far-flung influences such as David Bowie, Alva Noto + Ryuichi Sakamoto or Boards Of Canada. Enjoy this elegant ambient winter mix with a steaming cup of whatever tickles your frozen taste buds and stay tuned for more: heading up to December 24th, we've got three more mixes from Kompakt artists and friends in the pipeline!

This year, I accomplished a goal I set around 10 years ago; I released my debut album. I was honestly blown away by your responses to it, it's amazing getting messages and emails from you guys letting me know what you thought about it, and the feelings you got from it. 

2016 has been a strange one, but i'm thankful for it, and even more so to have awesome people around me who show support year after year. There are many more albums to come in the future, and I hope you'll stay on this journey with me. None of this would be possible without you guys, and for that, I am truly grateful.

Happy New Year, here's to the future <3
