Tycho

I saw Tycho live with a group of my best friends on a really chill night before we went bar hopping. We were all childhood best friends, who hadn't seen each other in a few years. We just by chance had the opportunity to see Tycho.
I was so very impressed by Tycho's performance. Scott Hansen is a really chill laid back guy, who has a humble band backing him. You get the sense that they're just a group of guys who like creating innovative melodies. Hansen barely looked at the audience, which doesn't mean he wasn't responsive.
In fact, I really appreciated it because it felt to me that he was so involved in the music and so involved with creating beauty that he couldn't concentrate on anything else. Because there are no lyrics, Tycho reaches the audience in a much more subtle yet poignant way. The music and lighting worked together to create a harmonious experience and emotionally powerful performance.
The lights dimmed and changed colors at just the right moments during the songs, and I felt like I had the power to create my own lyrics to the music, that I was in some ways apart of creating the music just by reverently witnessing it. I felt incredibly inspired and contemplative the entire performance, and so did my friends! We all found ourselves holding hands and swaying to the music. Instead of going out later that night, we downloaded Tycho's album and went to a park and listened to the music.

Honestly one of the most incredible concerts I've been too. Since it was in Brazil, not that many people were familiar with the bands songs but still were energetic and all about the vibe throughout the set.

I'd say that the fact that it was in a bar/nightclub helped because there was enough space for a sizable crowd that filled the room and the sound was on point. It also gave a more intimate vibe so that the atmosphere could truly reach the "Tycho" feel.

The band was really cool too. They were very grateful with the audience and when they were done and people chanted for an encore, Scott came back out and played a remix of "A Walk" and then the rest of the band came out and they respeated to more songs. (If I remember correctly, it was "Hours" and "L") After they went backstage for a bit, Scott came back out to take pictures and sign shirts, posters, and records. Since I was the only american in the crowd I was able to talk to the guys for while and even got some drinks with Scott and Rory (I'm honestly not kidding. I'm still stunned.)

It was an incredible experience and I highly reccomend going to see them anytime they're near you. You can definitely go alone (it was hard to convince my friends to come) and dance and just vibe out. It also seems like a great concert to bring a date to since it gets intimate and the music has you feeling blissful the whole way through.

This is the third time I've seen Tycho and they really up the ante with every show. Since releasing Awake and moving into a more post-rock sound Scott Hansen (with his wicked talented band) has really developed this huge presence on stage. It sounds kind of strange to say that considering how vibe-y the music is, but despite the ultra chillwave vibes that the music elicits, Tycho manages to put on these really big, beautiful and just grand performances. The great thing about having seen him (Scott Hansen) and them (Tycho) perform is seeing that evolution from a pretty standard but chill dj+visual artist set to a beautifully and impeccably curated visual and audio experience. Sick. ALSO, Hansen's other skills were really fantastically highlighted during the show. His mastery of visual arts and graphic design pulls in to the point where you're pretty convinced you may be in one of his music videos. He also did a small DJ set! People seem to forget that his perfect and impeccable taste also translates when he's just dj'ing. I get emotional when I think about just how good everything is when it comes to Tycho. They're so wonderful and I can't wait to see what they bring us next.

Barcelona 24/OCT
Tycho did not disappoint in Barcelona / Razzmatazz, hall full, and happy and friendly ppl. we miss very much Zac Brown, although Scott Hansen, Rory O'Connor and the Japanese -who i did not know the name yet-, performed perfectly. Sound a bit low of quality, Razzmatazz Hall fault, for me insufficient for the quality and cleanless sound of this great Californian band. They opened with Glider, but they did not get tired of their new Epoch album, they played wonderful songs of their all times and records. PPL liked very much songs Awake, Epoch, A Walk, L, but definitely went mad with Horizon.
If they come back, come back to see them,
for sure.;)

Electronic shows really don't get better than Tycho was last night. The sound at Boulder theater was very nearly perfect: not too loud and it was not a surprise when the guy running the sound turned out to be the recording engineer of the Dive and Awake albums because it couldn't have sounded better. The 3 session musicians that have been added to Tycho are all very talented and easily switched between instruments. I was totally blown away by how good the drummer was. He was able to play drum and bass style rhythms in between more normal rhythms on the fly. The whole group had a great stage presence. I can't wait to see these guys again.

Very good performance, but with a few negative points. The vibes and the overall atmosphere was positive, something that I really appreciated.

However, I found it rather short in duration and I felt that the band was lacking a bit of enthusiasm. I understand that a travelling band cannot be as enthusiastic in all their appearances. But from the audience perspective, you only get to see a band once in a long time, so your expectations build up as the concert gets closer.

In any case, I would definitely love to see these guys again in the future.

Great show. I liked it very much. Their music just took me to it's waves and supported with the lights and projections was keeping me feeling that shivers of pleasure during entire performance.. well let alone that composition they were performing together with the guy from Beacon. Would I know in advance I would not come so early the hear and see what Beacon does on the stage. But anyway, Tycho did great and I would definitely recommend to go to their concerts. Thank you guys. That was a pleasure.

Tycho is incredible. This is my third time seeing him and up until this point he has always played pretty small initimate shows so I wasn't sure how that would translate to a somewhat bigger sold out Crystal Ballroom show here in Portland. Let me say, it was fantastic. Music was a mesmerizing as always and his visuals that a perfectly cued and synced with each song once again stole the show. So so good. I would see him a fourth, fifth, and sixth time at the drop of a hat

Last time I saw Scott in Vancouver was around 2009 at The Electric Owl. He was still solo at that time and hadn't formed the group Tycho is today. The live show has improved immensely, to the point where I think their live music sounds better than the album. Everything was on point and just visuals suited the music very well.

Really hope Tycho release a live album down the road, because their live performances are something else.

Tycho was great! Definitely the dreamiest concert I've ever been to, yet the music was often very danceable. Very powerful sound. The live band played almost the whole time, with a few songs that were just DJ while the band took a break. Both the live band and DJ-only were solid. And the background videos went well with the music.
