Who is better then Tycho at Chillwave/Electrogaze? They don't exactly fit a tight genre.
Well, being the most well known/popular of a genre does make you the king of it. I mean, what's a king anyway, but an overrated general or some inbred retard born into the right family?

Tycho is essentially a giant rip off of Boards of Canada and since he got popular in the festival circuit he made 3 albums that sound exactly the same to pander to that audience. Meanwhile Boards of Canada doesn't ever tour and their albums are 1000x deeper in meaning

I never even thought to compare them.
Tycho is more guitar and melody based. BoC are more electronic-ambient

Nobody calls him the king of anything

Bob Marley pretty much is the king of reggae in terms of popularity and acclaim alone. I doubt that anyone has claimed that he was the first reggae artist, although he did bring it to mainstream recognition.
