I'm very pleased to announce the release of the fourth full length Tycho album, Epoch. 10 years ago next month the first Tycho record, Past is Prologue, was released and it's been an incredible journey. There's nothing I could possibly say to fully express my deep gratitude to all of you for making this past decade possible. I truly hope you enjoy this music and make it your own. We finished the album less than a month ago and decided to forego the typical release schedule and just put the record out as soon as possible. We're all very excited for you to be able to hear it so soon after it was completed. Thank you and enjoy!
 
meh, not feeling this one.

I saw scott perform 10 years ago, his sound was more forward-thinking electronic, on the now defunct Merck label.
Since Awake, it's been yesterday-thinking pop/shoegaze, with prog-house elements (which makes sense, Ghostly is a prog-house/techno label). but a lot of folks like his "new" sound; not much of a progression from Awake/Hours.

Yeah, there's many elements he uses that're still there. But yeah, after awake it's been this kind of up-tempo [i don't have the musical lingo to say what kinda style it is now] type thing. Awake started that and now this, but idk, I think the reason I tend to like it so much even today is because it's been a big part of most of my more serious entheogenic experiences. So yeah, I guess I kind've have an affinity for it. :d

But yeah I agree, not much of a progression.
 
Have any of you noticed how if you look at the simple artwork for this album it seems to be constantly expanding? It's a neat optical illusion (or nobody else can see it and I really am completely crazy!)

I will admit, his music has a sublime, positive vibe; perhaps uplifting.
I could see how it would be entheogen-friendly.

past is prologue was a favorite mushroom soundtrack.

Yeah, it has this ethereal uplifting type feels, idk how to word it really. Yeah you said it good - entheogen friendly,

Dude, past is prologue I listed to on one of my stronger pharma experiences several years back. Good memories there. :!::love: 8)

Just a little crazy. :p

jk

Yeah I don't really see it, aside from the orange looking like it's perpetually expanding outward yet never really expanding anywhere. :d

That's the one. The effect particularly shows when framed with black in the youtube window. Less so with a white background. I'd love to listen to the album but for some reason youtube wouldn't play, nor would soundcloud. (I suspect this comes of recently having upgraded my operating system...)

(EDIT: WTF? Now it works fine. Except I'm going to bed. Try again tomoz.)
