A WalkTycho

A solo project by musician Scott Hansen, based in San Francisco, USA.

Among the chillwave genre that drew attention in the electronic music scene from the late 2000s into the 2010s, it’s one of the more popular acts.

The track introduced here is the opening number on the second album, Dive, released in 2011.

Evolving meticulously from a silence-filled ambient space, the sound is very easy to listen to and also carries a synth-pop side.

It’s a gem I highly recommend to anyone who loves sounds like electro-shoegaze and folktronica.
