I become giddy with joy with that first female vocal part kicks in on the title track, and then it flows in bubbly grooves for another eight minutes. Aside from that Tycho is still the same old on Dive. But who cares? you're here for that killer production that makes you feel overwhelmingly warm and fuzzy inside. Sh*t rules.

This is an easy album to get lost in, and not many albums have the full on effect where you get lost in its ambiance and come back after its hour or so runtime wondering where your afternoon went. The last time Ive really had that happen so naturally with an album was Takk by Sigur Ros and much like Takk, Dive is a truly "cold" album. It's some interesting mix between the feeling of sinking into water and doing absolutely nothing at all on a rainy summer day. rTo pick a favorite track would feel like I would be doing the album some disservice because the whole album is part of the experience. My best advice is, pick your favorite listening spot. Toss this album and rainymood.com on and forget about the next hour of your life.

A really great, relaxing album. The only problem I really have with it is that the songs really start to blend in with each other a bit too much toward the end. Music like this can only be listen to for so long.

His best one, not because of its sheer originality or versatility, but simply because it's the most immersive. He should consider dropping EPs instead of albums, his style gets tiring after 30 minutes.

Tycho's brand of being the most chillest chill-waver ever can backfire into an album that's mostly boring rather than chill and unfortunately this record is that. But there are enough tracks in here that if you need to go to sleep or want to listen to well done, objectively technical marvels then you can do both simultaneously. Obviously worth a listen, but don't do it at night.

Caught Tycho live at a music festival and left right in the middle of the first song. Utterly dull. However, this album isn't bad.

I originally gave this a 4, but i just can't help but keep coming back for more! Tycho's ambience is addictive, entrancing and infectious. I simply can't get enough - GIVE ME MORE!

The start of the first song is really blissful and might be the high point. It's a good album to do your homework to, but to actively listen to? I'm not so sure.

With this release, Tycho takes his skill with ambient electronic soundscapes and mixes them with some chillwave influence reminiscent of Washed Out. Though the album does drag somewhat in the middle, it gets off to a fantastic start with "A Walk", "Daydreams", and the title track being some of the finest songs he has created to date. While the middle songs can sometimes overstay their welcome, they are typically pleasant and easygoing, and the emphasis on that atmosphere is very distinct. The album also closes on a high note with "Elegy", which is perhaps the most contemporary song on the album, consisting of acoustic guitar passages and electric guitar overtones. Overall, a solid album from Tycho, one filled with tracks tailor-made for a walk along the beach.

Last rating was poorly thought through. I've enjoyed this more than a 3.5.

Definitely an improvement over Past is Prologue. Takes some steps forward in terms of providing a bubbly-nostalgic atmosphere.

just completely builds upon the awesomeness that was Past is Prologue. Dude rules.
