One year after the successful release of "Adrenochrome" and its
follow-up remix EP, "Meathead’s Lost HD", Marco Visconti and Marko
Resurreccion are back and ready to unleash the Alchemy Series: three EPs
planned to be released no more than six months from each other, an
non-stop audio assault that will once again set aflame the alternative
dancefloors worldwide with its mixture of old and new influences from
the classic sounds of trance to the modern beats of EDM.
Three releases as three are the phases of the Alchemical process, said
to transform the lower metals such as lead into gold, and which is
nothing else but a veiled allegory of the initiatory path from man to
Godhead.
Nigredo, or blackness, in alchemy means putrefaction or decomposition.
The alchemists believed that as a first step in the pathway to the
philosopher's stone all alchemical ingredients had to be cleansed and
cooked extensively to a uniform black matter. In analytical psychology,
the term became a metaphor for the dark night of the soul, when an
individual confronts the shadow within.
