Tycho - Infinite Health (Sky Blue Vinyl)

Electronic producer Scott Hansen has announced a new Tycho album, Infinite Health, which will be out August 30 via Mom + Pop. Hansen co-produced the album with Grizzly Bear‘s Chris Taylor and Tycho guitarist Zac Brown. For this album Hansen focused on “reaks, drums, and rhythmic elements” and used that as the foundation for all the other elements “as opposed to the other way around.”

The first single from the album is “Phantom,” a signature Tycho chill banger with lots of psychedelic touches floating around the stereo field. “I wanted ‘Phantom’ to feel like a blend of lights in a nightclub with some unknown entity; a moving and shifting intelligence that served as a conduit to a deeper understanding of what’s beneath the surface of existence,” says Hansen. “It’s also about coming to terms with mortality, with the phantom being the ever-present specter. I spent more hours on this song than any other on the record. I played a Juno emulation for that bassline, and I feel like that bassline, and style of bass playing, is something pretty new for me.”
