Parker Tichko

Based in Boston, MA, Parker Tichko is a music neuroscientist, composer, musician, and producer who creates electro-acoustic music using vintage analog and digital synthesizers from the 1970s and 1980s. Inspired by 20th-century electronic music and early analog music technology, Tichko’s music is characterized by soft, warm, and organic oscillating tones–created from a variety of vintage synthesizers–that are juxtaposed over acoustic instruments and natural field recordings of ecological soundscapes. Fans of 20th-century electronic music (e.g., Mort Garson, Suzanne Ciani, Roedelius) and modern environmental and electronic music (e.g., Kaitlyn Aurelia Smith, Green-House, Bibio, Patricia Wolf), will enjoy Tichko’s immersive, electro-acoustic compositions that blend vintage timbres with contemplative, nature-centered atmospheres.
