Apr 9, 2014With such a short album comes a blast of fresh air in rather stale indie charts. On Awake they prove just what they can do with instrumentation and mixing. Its cohesive and uplifting and likeable. A definite win.

Aug 1, 2015This album is an incredible piece of artwork. From start to finish, Awake captures the listener and takes them on a ride. This record has more acoustic instrumentation than Dive, bringing Tycho closer to previous works in his catalog, like Past is Prologue. The maturation of Tycho as an artist is clear, and this album proves it.

Jun 23, 2014If there's a complaint to be made about Awake, it's that at eight tracks, the album is a little short. Still, taking into account the sheer pleasantness of the music featured here, it's hardly a demerit to the record.

Apr 21, 2014It's appealing stuff, but dig deeper and you'll find there's not much beneath the pristine surface.
