New Tycho Single: Awake

“Awake” is the first single from Tycho’s new LP out next year, Scott has also done the album art as usual. I know it might sound bias but these next few steps towards the new album are going to be really special, let us know what you think below, we love hearing from you all.

October 14, 2013 at 11:21 amThis song is exactly what I wanted to hear from Tycho. It’s so cool to see the progression from Past Is Prologue to Dive to this stuff. All of it is good, but everything keeps building on each other. New elements are being added in and making it better and better. The artwork is wonderful. The visual that Scott puts with the music makes it so much more real and vibrant. Great stuff, i’m excited for this stuff to drop next year.

October 14, 2013 at 12:00 pmGreat single! Looking forward to the album next year!
The artwork transports those dreamy melodies from “Awake”.
Very nice color-palette.
Hope to see you on tour next year somewhere in Europe!

October 14, 2013 at 12:38 pmSounds amazing Scott. Those muted guitars are a killer way to begin, something you’ve never done before. Ambitious and exciting. Can’t wait to hear more from the new record, and hopefully experience it live soon! Cheers.

Michael Lind says:
October 14, 2013 at 12:51 pmI was just thinking how I can listen to this and know that it is Tycho without seeing the artist’s name, at the same time it is a new sound. Kudos on evolving your sound while staying true to style.

October 14, 2013 at 1:12 pmThose muted guitar lines remind me in some ways of the xx, but also have a faint surf-rock feel to them.

October 16, 2013 at 12:31 amHey Jakub. Haven’t been here for a year or so – just came back after hearing Awake on Soundcloud. Damn – it is crazy good. Sucked I missed Scott on his brief Aussie tour earlier in the year… looking forward to the next visit.

October 17, 2013 at 12:14 pmAs your every single track is excellent. Fortunately it’s simmilar to tracks on “Dive” and I’m very satisfied with it.

Johnny says:
October 20, 2013 at 10:38 amI’d love to know the song being used in the upcoming game, Hohokum, will be on the upcoming Tycho album as well.
I first heard that track last summer when Tycho was at Camp Bisco, and again in the fall when he came to Philly. I fell in love with this song live.
I dont know the official name of the track, but have read that it is called ‘Horizon’
Mitchell says:
October 28, 2013 at 2:44 pmSounds very good! Nice and dreamy as always. Keep that in your tunes mate, really makes it special!
