Tycho- Past is Prologue

Past Is Prologu title="Tycho  Past is Prologue" /></p>
<p>I met <a href="http://www.myspace.com/tycho">Tycho</a> back in 2002 when I was more of an ‘IDM’/electronic dj.  His music is as lush and as head noddy as it gets.  Think <a href="http://www.myspace.com/abeautifulplace">Boards of Canada</a> and <a href="http://www.myspace.com/fourtetkieranhebden">Four Tet</a>, and you kinda get the picture.  This limited edition colored vinyl, which is a sampler of his album of the same name, is out on Merck records, a label he and I both loved and respected then, and now look, they’re releasing his shit!  </p>
<p>The opening track, ‘From Home’ is my pick of the bunch.  It starts with a synthy build up that makes me feel like I’m floating in the air being smothered with soft fluffy clouds, then a steady hip hop beat connects everything together, and you end out feeling like everything in the world is all right.  I need to start smoking the buds again.</p>
