It’s going to be a big year for Tincture’s Luke Dalton. He's back with the follow up single from his forthcoming EP, “Tryst”, which is set to cement his place in the scene as a force to be reckoned with.

Similar Circles represents a progression in his sound, borrowing influence from acts like Shelter Point and The Knife, yet never forsaking his penchant for lush synth and sharp percussion. At it's heart, Similar Circles grapples with the fear of stagnation through routine. Though you can feel a sense of yearning, the track never quite reaches the anxious resolve it strives for - "repeating, repeating, repeating until the same things come back again".

Tycho "Awake" LP on Ghostly International
Release date: MARCH 18, 2014

Design and layout by Scott Hansen

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.

Everything We Touch

FRIENDLY FIRES & THE ASPHODELLS
‘BEFORE YOUR EYES / VELO’
AA-SIDED SINGLE RELEASED ON 31ST MARCH 2014 ON TELOPHASE
DOWNLOAD NOW FROM ITUNES: http://smarturl.it/FFBeforeYourEyes

At some point in 2013, Friendly Fires, Andrew Weatherall and Timothy J Fairplay (aka The Asphodells), convened in an east London pub to discuss collaborating on new music together. The plan was to produce music that came from a place outside of their respective usual musical styles - a loose, open-ended process embarked upon for the pure joy of experimentation and collaboration rather than a specific end goal.

The collaboration came on the back of two hugely successful Friendly Fires albums – 2008’s debut Friendly Fires and 2011’s follow up Pala – and an acclaimed debut album from The Asphodells in 2013’s Ruled By Passion Destroyed By Lust, the latest in a long line of classic releases from Andrew Weatherall’s own Rotters Golf Club label.

Recording took place between Weatherall’s Shoreditch studio, The Bunker, and Friendly Fires frontman Ed Macfarlane’s basement studio just a short stroll down the road in Farringdon, using a desk that once belonged to influential German producer Konrad ‘Conny’ Plank to mix the tracks.

The result is ‘Before Your Eyes’ and ‘Velo’ - two brand new tracks that take close to ten minutes each to reveal their full hypnotic glory. The tracks will be released as a AA-sided single on 12” and download and will be the inaugural release on Friendly Fires’ own Telophase label.

Shiner ft. Ginger & The Ghost

Lyrics:

You take just what you want
You take just what you need
There ain’t another like you
There ain’t another like you
You  make me beg for your love, your love and I do
‘Cause there’s a million like me
But there ain’t nothing like you

I got just what he wants
I got just what he needs
He might be looking at her
But he’s thinking about me
I say ooh nah-nah ooh nah-nah what’s my name?
I got that good-good bestest
Put them others to shame

I might let you fall in love with Me
I might let you fall in love, love
And she told me I’m what she wants
And she told me that I
And she told me I’m what she wants
I’m she wants

I give him what he wants 
I give him what he needs
He gets one taste of the uhhh
Bring him right to his knees
I said you want it, you want it?
Then say my name
I got the best you’ve ever had
Put them others to shame

I might let you fall in love with Me
I might let you fall in love, love
And she told me I’m what she wants
And she told me that I
And she told me I’m what she wants
I’m she wants

Sometimes your roses and wine
Get me red like a devil, a devil
And if I let you be mine
Will you make me a bad girl, your bad girl?

I might let you fall in love with Me
I might let you fall in love, love

I might let you fall in love with Me
I might let you fall in love, love
And she told me that I
And she told me I’m what she wants
I’m she wants

Sideways is the debut EP from Brisbane’s newest electronic wunderkid cln, featuring five glorious examples of chilled downtempo, electronic bliss. 
 
The EP’s lead single ‘Better Than’ took the world by storm, reaching No.1 on Hype Machine within just three days of its release, and amassing over 125,000 plays on Soundcloud since. Following closely behind was the EP’s title-track, which quickly strengthened the anticipation of what else this 19 year old newcomer had up his sleeve.

cln is now excited to be sharing the full Sideways EP with you all, which includes two unheard original gems; the bouncy hip-hip feels of ‘Dayum’ and the infectious trip-hop sounds of ‘What You Said,’ as well as the intoxicating remix cln has produced for fellow Brisbane-bred producer, @golden-vessel.
