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.

Hanging By A Thread

Lyrics:

Jag hatar mig själv, du hittade saker som jag lämnat öppet,
men blev istället kallad för ond.
Du läste mellan rader som aldrig skrevs,
ritade horn i kanten på mitt namn.
Det var sent och kaffet smakade metall,
du sa “säg sanningen” och jag tappade talet.

Jag ville säga: jag är bara trött,
en människa som snubblar.
Men orden fastnar bakom tungan,
allt jag hör är hur du drar isär.

“Hatar mig, hatar mig” — jag säger det för högt,
som om skammen vore allt jag har kvar.
Men under alla lager finns ett hjärta som slår,
rädd att bli lämnad, rädd att bli sårad.
Om jag är ond i dina ögon,
vem får jag vara i mina?

Du vände på lådor, gjorde skärmdumpar av tystnad,
klippte ihop ett liv som inte är mitt.
Raderade sms blev sanningar,
och rykten blev ett straff utan rätt.
Jag stod i hallen med jackan på,
och skorna blev tyngre än ord.

Jag ville skrika: jag försökte räcka till,
men längtan rev sönder min hud.
Så lätt att kalla någon monster
när man själv är rädd för sitt ljus.

“Hatar mig, hatar mig” — jag säger det för högt,
som om skammen vore allt jag har kvar.
Men under alla lager finns ett hjärta som slår,
rädd att bli lämnad, rädd att bli sårad.
Om jag är ond i dina ögon,
vem får jag vara i mina?

Jag hittar en bild av oss från förr,
där ingen av oss var rätt eller fel.
Jag lägger handen mot mitt bröst
och hör en rytm jag nästan glömt.
Jag säger mitt namn långsamt, mjukt:
du är inte ond — du är bara mänsklig.

Om jag lär mig stå kvar när det blåser,
om jag lär mig tala när det brister,
kanske slutar ekon
att ropa “hatar mig” tillbaka.

“Hatar mig, hatar mig” — men mindre för varje andetag,
jag lyfter upp det barn som bor i mig.
Under alla lager finns ett hjärta som slår,
inte perfekt, men fortfarande mitt.
Om jag är fel i dina ögon,
kan jag bli hel i mina.

Jag låser dörren utan att låsa in mig.
Jag är kvar. Och jag består.

Lyrics:
Written by Lauren "LYON" Malyon and Nygel Asselin

Heart Beat, Wake up, We fight, Break
Heart Beat, Make up, We try, Break

I’ve been running around circles, chasing daydreams late at night
You’ve been holding out for nothing, 
skipping heart beats every time

I’m ad­dict­ed , to your roller coaster highs
Am I over thinkin, or have my stars been realigned

Heart Beat, Change Up, We hide, break
Heart Beat, Wait up, We lie, break

You’ve been running around circles, 
chasing daydreams late at night
I’ve been holding out for nothing, 
skipping heartbeats every time

I’m ad­dict­ed , to your roller coaster highs
Am I over thinkin, or have my stars been realigned

Ahhhh, Ahhh
I'm addicted to your heartbeat, heartbeat

I’m Addicted to your roller coaster highs
Am I over thinkin, or have my stars been realigned
I'm addicted to your heartbeat, heartbeat
I'm addicted to your roll, rollercoaster

Cant Feel you...

Can't Feel you, Can't Find you.

In my memory
Thoughts that I rejected about me
They become my own enemy
Can someone tell my mind to set me free

Cause my insanity
is compromising who I’m meant to be
And erasing all ability
To understand what neither of us need

And that’s the reason why I said the things I said to you
I’ve done what I had to do
Reasoning my solitude
Even when I’m feeling on my own
Too weak for you, I think I’ll have another two
I’m not sure what it’s good for
But I’ll be sober when I’m over you

In my memory
Thoughts that I rejected about me
I’m realizing my reality
to get my thoughts and dream

Dream of all the things that I, that I ever said to you
Done what I had to do
I’ve put up with your attitude
even when i’m feeling so alone,
Too weak for you, I think I’ll have another two
Not sure what it’s good for but I’ll be sober when I’m over you

Over you
