about

Alchemy, is about the magic of what happens when you mix the recipe of ingredients in just the right way to create something completely new and exciting.

It's always a little mind-boggling to me how many choices we make in creating a recording. From deciding a melody, a chord progression, a groove, an arrangement, how many musicians and who they are. And that's before even recording a note! Then there's all the inter-reactions that happen when you're recording, and magic that happens when musician's listen to each other, and add their stylistic ways of playing.

And then there's mixing, where everything is fitted together in just the right way to come up with the final result. Mastering adds the final polish. So many decisions along the way, and one small change somewhere can take the music in an entirely different direction.

So this is one of who-knows-how-many ways this tune could have been expressed. So happy to have you as an audience to appreciate it!
