Inspiration

Tycho is the musical project of Scott Hansen, an American musician, producer, and designer based in San Francisco. Hansen creates ambient electronic music that blends analogue synthesisers, live instrumentation, and atmospheric soundscapes. Tycho's music combines downtempo, ambient, and electronic elements with organic instrumentation. The sound features layered synthesisers, melodic bass lines, and guitar work that creates immersive, cinematic atmospheres.

ISO50

The studio produces album artwork, posters, and design work that has become synonymous with the Tycho brand.
