Title of the new cd of the Greek Digital Alkemist accurately describe the atmosphere created by music. It’s real music and escape from reality through dark streets, notes, sounds, cables and soundscapes that represent feelings of confusion.
The magic of sounds and stories of everyday life combine to reproduce the feeling of a Jam session in a room full of smoke, a scene in an old theater, a hangover after a rainy night, a night walk in the woods or on the beaches of California .
The whole album takes you on a fluid reality where music has the ability to lighten or darken the feelings and desires.
Costas Chrysogelos a.k.a. Digital Alkemist (http://www.mole.de/eng/Artists/digital% 20alkemist.html) record the magic of flight to Athens, and partly in Miami from October 2008 until February 2010. It is perhaps the first album where greater use of natural instruments and voices, and less electronic soundscapes, as on previous discs. The songs are moving in different musical idioms as downtempo, trip hop, rock, funk, always with his personal style and his electronic background.
