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.

Oliver Heldens - Heldeep Radio #014

GOOD INTENT, the alluring 3rd single from KIMBRA’S highly anticipated debut album VOWS, will be available on iTunes from Monday 15 August.  

The album VOWS will be released on Friday 2 September.  

Having signed with Warner Music Worldwide in Los Angeles earlier this year, KIMBRA’S debut record has been three and-a-half years in the making. It charts not only her growth and development musically over this time, but personally as well. KIMBRA co-produced VOWS alongside the refined skills of François Tétaz (Bertie Blackman, Gotye) and Australian Urban export M-Phazes (Amerie, Pharoahe Monch) . She also contributed her vocal talents to Miami Horror’s ‘ I look to you ‘ and a duet with Gotye’s on his current number 1 single ‘Somebody I used to Know’. 

KIMBRA is already proving herself as a songwriter and music stylist beyond her years. Settle Down, the first single lifted from VOWS, won first place in the Pop/Top 40 category at the The International Songwriting Competition (ISC), the world's preeminent global songwriting event.  Most recently KIMBRA was also awarded the prestigious Vanda & Young Songwriting Award for her 2nd single Cameo Lover.  

On Good Intent, KIMBRA explores both sides of a broken vow and the destruction it causes. An intense theme playfully delivered in teasing lines punctuated by drunk horns, “I know you didn’t mean it boy/you meant so well/but the pennies are cascading ‘round your wishing well.” Framed by jazz bass, the nimble shuffle of drums and a bluesy guitar solo, the effect is like waking up in a foggy speakeasy after a jagged night out to find the heart on your sleeve missing. The cinematic film clip, playing out a film noir escapade of moral intentions and immoral actions, is set to plunge fans deeper into the eclectic world of KIMBRA.

To support the single and album releases, KIMBRA is touring nationally with tickets on sale now.   Demand to see KIMBRA’S critically acclaimed live performance is so strong, her Sydney show has recently moved to a venue double the size.
