As of December 2014, Tycho is signed to, and has released under, Ghostly International, but has also released music on Merck Records and Gammaphone Records. His music is a combination of downtempo vintage-style synthesizers and ambient melodies.

The one music video they have that I know of
One of my favorites, plus this is a transition into how they sound live. Hoping we can get something like this on the farm. This is them playing at burning man last year, enjoy this ear treat all the way through!.
Decide how you feel while listening to the two live pieces I provided above. Personally, I get the impression this will be a show you can sit back and soak in. But if they end up getting a late night tent, you may be able to look for a similar set to their burning man show, in which case it could keep your body moving all night! I've heard good things of their light show as well, Scott even does work on the visuals for those.
Interesting Facts
"His song, "Dictaphone's Lament", was used as the track on a music video entitled "Live Life to the Fullest", which was made by and featured on the action cartoon block Toonami. His song "Cascade" (originally made for an Adult Swim/Ghostly International compilation called Ghostly Swim) was played during the final moments of the original 11-year run of Toonami in 2008.

Personal Notes
Tycho brings a lot to the table for me personally. I use their music for pure enjoyment, to fall asleep, when I am working on something where lyrics will distract me, it also helps keep me calm and gently calms me down/declutter my thoughts. Hope some of you that are new to these guys can discover how fantastic they are and maybe i'll see some of you at their set come Bonnaroo!
I'm seeing Tycho on the 31st! I'm so excited but I'm more excited to see them outside and in a festival setting. It's going to be so good. Hoping for a sunset set or LN.
