Tycho joins host Stephen Kallao

For nearly 20 years, Scott Hansen, who is better known by Tycho, has crafted electronic music that balances exhilarating tracks like “Awake” with an indie-rock sensibility, featuring vintage analog synths and downtempo guitar. His latest, Infinite Health, aims to be a dose of emotional healing. On the World Cafe, Tycho joins us to talk about how advancements in technology have streamlined his production process, and shares live performances recorded in Ogden, Utah.
