Tycho "Awake" LP on Ghostly International
Release date: MARCH 18, 2014

Purchase "Awake": shop.iso50.com/collections/awake

formats:
CD/LP/DIGITAL

artwork by:
ISO50

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.

Wilsen - "Magnolia"

Artist: Delamere
Single: Headstrong
Release Date: 30th August 2014
Label: Scruff of the Neck Records

"I've constantly got Delamere on repeat, I'm personally a massive fan and I know they are catching the attention of the right people, watch this space"
- Rob Adcock, BBC Introducing

"Delamere have consistently proven why they're one of the most impressive and versatile young bands coming up at the moment. Here's hoping that 2014 sees the band garnering more of the recognition they deserve"
- Dave Beech, Louder Than War, Shout4Music

Never a band to rush in to things, patience (no, not the dreaded Gary Barlow song) has always been the name of the game for Stoke's Delamere. This lack of haste can't be attributed to a collective laziness however, far from it. It stems from an overt attention to detail and an overall perfectionism, manifesting most recently in the band's forthcoming single 'Headstrong'. 

Built around an impressive juxtaposition of atmospheric verses and driving, frenetic choruses, there's an obvious musicality about this band that belies their relatively young years. Head nestling hooks and emphatic vocals are a Delamere staple, but here both are really brought to the fore; a product of two years of hard work and unwavering self-belief.

“Headstrong is purely and simply about knowing yourself and knowing exactly what you want to do, ignoring everybody else and being confident with what you believe in.”
- James Fitchford, Delamere

In those two years, the band have released a steady stream of sound defining singles, garnering somewhat of a cult following both in their hometown, and their adopted second home of Manchester, which was won over by the sell-out single launch for ‘Do You Want Me?’ at the ever-eclectic Deaf Institute. Whilst that sell-out show might well have been a crowning point in Delamere's early stages, it was the groundwork leading up to that point that really swung things in the band's favour. 
 
Championed by multiple regional radio hosts including Rob Adcock (BBC Introducing Stoke) and Lucee Clarke (6town Radio), the band have also been firm favourites of critics across the net, such as Dave Beech (Louder Than War, Shout4Music). With such support almost from the word go, it was obvious that Delamere had ‘something’ about them. It's that ‘something’ that permeates the entirety of 'Headstrong', making it an engaging listen from one of the UK's most promising young bands.

Headstrong will be available for pre-order via all major online stores on 18/08/14.

Talking To The Sun

Lyrics:
BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT

YOU ARE THE MOST FORTUNATE ONE
NO REASON TO BELIEVE
YOU HAVE THE ARMS TO SOUND THE ALARM
BUT YOU DON’T FEEL THE NEED

AM I THE ONLY ONE?
WHERE ARE THE OTHERS?
WHERE ARE THE OTHERS?
I AM THE OTHERS

WHO ARE YOU?
YOU ARE THE MOST FORTUNATE ONE

AND WE HAVE THE BLESSING NOW
(BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT)
NO REASON TO RETREAT
(BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT)
AND WE HAVE THE LUNGS
AND WE HAVE THE AIR TO SHOUT, 
(BREATHE IN, BREATHE OUT)
BUT WE DON’T
NO, WE DON’T DARE BREATHE OUT

About the track:
"I Am The Others" explores the relationship between empathy and efficacy. Each of our actions is a vote, expressing the attributes of the world we'd like to inhabit. To everyone besides ourselves, we are the others: the community, the context, the catalysts. 

Our songs often originate from an exploration of a particular sound.  In this case, the resonance of paper vibrating on marimba bars and low piano strings led the way. These intimate sounds were manipulated to create an orchestra, which in turn became the source for the majority of the instrumental material.

Formed in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2007, MINT JULEP is the husband-and-wife team of Keith and Hollie Kenniff. Subsequently relocating to Portland, Oregon, the duo cut a limited release album, Songs About Snow, in 2008 and the EP, Adorn, in 2010 – effectively a trial run for further recording in their home studio, the fruit of which is a sublime follow-up, Save Your Season, released by Village Green in 2011. The couple is currently writing and recording their next album, Broken Devotion, which is slated for release in mid 2013.

Hallmarked by Hollie’s seductive, dreamy vocals and a succession of memorably soaring choruses, all of it etched with Keith’s vivid, glinting keyboards, towering guitars and miscellaneous instrumental hooks, Mint Julep make lustrous modern pop music that is wistful and mellifluous yet simultaneously powerful, even epic – equal parts shoegazing romanticism and cool, Kraftwerkian polish. Their songs seem instantly familiar, like old musical friends, a ’classicism’ offset by the freshness and luminosity they exude as they usher you on a breathless ride through the sunlit uplands of electronic indie-rock.

Mint Julep was designed as a conscious departure from Keith’s previous, ambient-orientated projects. “When Hollie and I set out to do something, I wanted to find some way to incorporate her vocals into a slightly different style, rather than just write similar material to my solo work and lay her vocals over top”, he says. “I had the need to write something that had some distorted guitars, loud drums and was a little bolder than what I had previously done. We messed around with a track one night (which became ‘Stay’) and it was a fun process, so we just kept writing more songs so we could do a project together.”

Soon a working pattern emerged, with Keith composing music around Hollie’s lyrics or making tracks which Hollie would then add to. “It just developed after a lot of trial and error, and after a while the material started to plateau and began to sound like an album…”

A Pennsylvannian by birth, Keith Kenniff is an honors graduate of Boston’s esteemed Berklee College of Music, best known as the brains behind dulcet ambient/electronic practitioners Helios and the fingers on the ivories of post-classical piano minimalists Goldmund (the latter’s music once described by no less an authority than Ryuichi Sakamoto as “…so, so, so beautiful…”). A succession of albums under those aliases has made Kenniff the darling of discerning critics and his music has also been widely used in film, television and advertising, not least on the soundtrack to the 2012 documentary Bones Brigade, as well as composing for clients such as Apple, Facebook and Google.

Originally from Ohio, singer Hollie Kenniff maintains dual US/Canadian citizenship, having spent part of her life in Ontario. Aside from Mint Julep, she has collaborated on several additional musical endeavors in tandem with husband Keith, including a children’s music project, Meadows (inspired by the couple’s young son), whose debut longplayer was recently released, and an ambient diversion under their own names. An album of the latter, A Deep and Dreamless Sleep, is slated for release in 2013.
