ALCHYMIE NEW MUSIC AHEAD!
Recording the piano albums 24th Floor volumes 1 & 2 in Minnesota from a winter nest high above the city of Minneapolis seems like it was in a different lifetime. Much has changed for me personally and for all of us globally. The year 2020 has proven to push us all beyond anything we could have imagined and continues to test us individually and collectively with layers of an onion that just keeps peeling back one layer after another, and then another layer, and another. While we can’t pick the onions out of this year (if you are inclined to do so with your salad) we CAN choose where to direct our focus and our energies. Naturally, Alchymie goes into the alchemical soup and records. The soup has been cooking, collaborations & solo projects are finishing and some just beginning. Here’s the latest news from the Alchymie lab….
Want to explore the galaxy with Alchymie on a monthly basis? You can with a new mailing list opportunity! The Streichfett Sessions!

Yes, that’s right….ten months, ten tracks. And FREE. Piano combined with a gadget I’ve fallen in love with, the Streichfett (translated“spreadable fat” in German). Aimed to take us out into our galaxy and above the mundane daily reality….at least for 3-5 minutes. We will be departing before the end of the year.

TNT GROOVE INTERNATIONAL music label will be releasing my next two volumes of solo piano music! Field Guide volume 1 releases globally on September 17, 2020 and Field Guide volume 2 will be announced in the near future.

Many exciting things ahead with this label on all fronts!
Having collaborated with the musical/visual artists James & Virginia Wilson of Spectral Reflections on Echoes of the Sea, I was happy to be involved with another collaboration—STARZIN7—in the electronic pop genre. Two singles “Day into Night” (released August 2020 and streaming on your platform of choice) and another upcoming single “The Time Between”. Stay tuned for video premieres and the new STARZIN7 website.
