Background Noise

A relaxing instrumental music piece with beautiful Yosemite video by relaxdaily. Soft music that might fit your studying, thinking or mental work playlist. Or simply enjoy this calm tune as a relaxing soundtrack whenever you feel for a dreamy, ambient relaxdaily style music piece ;)

Artist: relaxdaily | Title: N°075

Words from the creator: 
Great that you take time to read this. ...Hope you're doing well! ...it took me longer than I wished to finish up this tune. One of my goals for 2014 is to focus more on music, and hopefully creating more tracks than in the  second half of 2013 (which was not so productive in terms of new music output = makes me feel bad). But  also there is this quality control freak inside me, which wants every track to be something special and rather “well done”. Which simply means that to create a new tune takes its time. So what, I enjoy the process a lot ;) 

The video is the first leakage on this channel of what I could capture while visiting Yosemite for a few days during last November. Hey, this is a great place with lots of good energy! I hope I'll get the chance to experience it again some day. 

I hope you enjoy both, the video and the music!

Love, 
Michael (relaxdaily music and video creator)

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.

This might quite possibly be my favorite track on the EP. 

I woke up in the middle of the night, thinking to myself that "Discovery" would be a suitable name for my EP. However, when I started working on ideas for the title track, nothing seemed to quite work out. So I decided to challenge myself and sample something in my kitchen and turn it into a pluck. I ended up filling a cognac glass with water, until it sounded somewhat close to a B note, and then hit it with a mallet. This is what I ended up using as a starting point for "Discovery".

'Decades' follows the idea of certain concepts in life only being the 'tip of the iceberg'. A good example of this are relationships, because essentially all we get to see as a third party is a summary of what might be years of experiences and memories.
