About Tic Tic
Tic Tic is a Norwegian duo, crafting electronic music that balances modern innovation with a nostalgic edge. Their sound draws from post-rock, synth-pop, and electronic textures, with echoes of Dead Can Dance, Massive Attack and Depeche Mode.
Their music is often described as experimental yet accessible, merging synthetic precision with organic warmth.
Their debut album, Comfort in the Echo, was released on Apollon Records in August 2020, receiving acclaim for its lush soundscapes and emotional depth. The band’s second album is slated for release in late autumn 2025.
The Tic Tic Universe
Live, the Tic Tic universe comes to life through the use of video and theatrical elements. Following their debut album, Comfort in the Echo, they presented the concert Tic Tic Takes Time. The performance was a meticulously directed production where multiple art forms merged into a cohesive experience.

Said about Tic Tic’s music
This is a pop record not for pop music’s sake, but with a passion and a purpose, which is what sets it miles ahead of the generic, cookie-cutter pop that you find playing everywhere you turn. Nine Circles
“It’s black pop tinged with prog. Indulge!” Rated 9/10 profilprog.com
“It is electronic and organic, mysterious and melodic, nostalgic and modern” (“Den er elektronisk og organisk, mystisk og melodisk, nostalgisk og moderne, og mye annet fint på én gang.”) Fædrelandsvennen
