Infinite Health by Tycho is a vibrant continuation of Scott Hansen's signature ambient electronic sound. The album blends warm analog synths with rhythmic elements, creating a soundscape that feels both nostalgic and forward-looking. Tracks like "Phantom" and "Devices" evoke a sense of serene introspection, while "Green" brings a sun-soaked, downtempo vibe reminiscent of lo-fi beats. Though some tracks delve into more familiar territory, the album as a whole offers a refreshing mix of chill, ambient textures with subtle influences from 90s downtempo and even French House. It's a finely crafted album that invites listeners to relax and immerse themselves in Tycho's tranquil world​ ( The Indy Review , Clash Magazine , indienative ) .

"Out of the Blue" by Kinobe is a serene yet vibrant exploration of their signature lounge chill sound, enriched with a whimsical psychedelic twist.

Tracks like "It’s Only A Dream" stand out, featuring cinematic strings, surfy guitar, and smooth vocals that guide listeners through a dreamy, almost surreal sonic journey.
