[quote]Tycho is the music project of San Francisco based artist and producer Scott Hansen. Hansen began his foray into electronic music with 2002’s The Science of Patterns EP which was followed in 2004 by his first full length, Sunrise Projector. 2006 saw the release of Past Is Prologue on the now defunkt IDM label Merck Records. In 2007 Ghostly International released Tycho’s first single under that imprint, “The Daydream / The Disconnect”. A new full length album on Ghostly is in the works and slated for a 2010 release.

Tycho is hands down my favourite ambient and chillout artist. His little "signature" is to use samples from old educational films in his work. I love it, I bet you will too.

First, here is some of his awesome artwork:

The video for Dictaphone's Lament was pretty neat.

That first video you posted I can recall hearing somewhere, or at least the intro to it.

His artwork really caught my eye and the music is really nice too, reminds me of some of Moby's more mellow stuff. Thanks for posting this, now I have another artist to watch :buddy:

You probably heard it on Adult Swim; alot of Ghosty International artists have their music played during their bumps.
