Tycho
Awake

Lounge chairs with a view of a wonderful stretch of sea, many umbrellas, children building sandcastles, the sweet sound of waves crashing on the shore... but it's very hot, and it's time to quench your thirst, something refreshing? Tycho arrives immediately with his new refreshing and captivating non-alcoholic tropical fruit cocktail brand Ghostly International.

The basic recipe follows that of the previous and delicious "Dive" drink, with some variations: the musician from San Francisco now has a real band following him around venues, and this is partly noticeable from the way the album was composed with a decent increase in the contribution of classical instrumentation without ever excessively straying from the reference genre, see under "Montana" or "Spectre".

The menu proposed by Scott Hansen (aka Tycho), who is not only a musician but also involved in visual arts, this time includes fewer courses, among which "L" and that sort of silent and liquid paradise known as "Dye" should definitely be mentioned, which reveals all its beauty after a couple of listens, as well as being an indicator that if the raison d'être of this type of project is to relax mind and body, our friend has hit the mark again.
The final strokes of "Plains" can only portray a serene sunset: the beach slowly empties and another intimate night between land and water is prepared in the air.

It lacks that something extra that would allow it to become a classic like the 2011 album, but this remains the electronic music we like and the one we need as an antidote to the enduring and continuous stress of life.
