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.

Lyrics:

There's arctic air blowing through the streets.
I don't care if both of us freeze.
All the flowers withered quickly.
And you wish you'd never met me.
And you wish you'd never met me.

So I just close my eyes pretend I'm home.
Florida's warm tonight is all I know.
Sorry for how I went and cut you out.
Sorry for how I've been on and off.
When I close my eyes I see you there.
Florida's warm tonight, the world's at war.
Sorry for how I went and fucked you up.
Sorry for how I am not enough.

Now you're done. You're done.

Jesus knows I don't believe in him.
The holy ghost, he don't possess me.
I wasn't there when you first met me.
I didn't care that you felt lonely,
I didn't care cause I was lowly
as the moon glow soft and slowly.
Maybe someday you won't know me.
Maybe someday you won't know me.
Maybe someday you won't know me.

Florida's Warm

Mall Walk - Funny Papers LP on Mt.St.Mtn.
http://www.mtstmtn.com/audio/mtn-18-mall-walk

>> Propulsive. Infectious. Thoughtful. A band that captures the idiosyncrasies of modern American life in their brooding compositions, building syncopated tension before revelatory climaxes. Funny Papers, the debut album from this Oakland, CA trio, takes cues from Wire and Sonic Youth to create a churning, nuanced record that’s never lacking in hooks.

The interplay between Nicholas Clark (drums) and Daniel Brown (bass) is something to admire, complimenting the cutting, angular guitar and rolling arpeggios that punctuate tracks like opener “Call Again”, while standouts like the soaring “Sleeping in Shifts” highlight Rob I. Miller’s (vocal, guitar) calm, cool delivery, and knack for emotive, memorable lines. Recorded and produced by Monte Vallier (Wax Idols, Weekend, The Soft Moon), repeat listens reveal the remarkable attention to detail behind Funny Papers. Textural slabs of noise delicately expand sparse arrangements into expansive, climatic ascents.
