Coming Soon…
Alchemy, the masters teach, is the process of linking the spiritual to the material. The alchemist is the bridge between the worlds. It is a process of working inside a mirror, knowing always that in the end, the part will reflect the whole. As inside, so outside. ~Thomas Lloyd Qualls, Painted Oxen |

“We wait, starving for moments of high magic to inspire us, but life is full of common enchantment waiting for our alchemists eyes to notice.”

Everywhere I look, I see the signs of collapse. I keep searching for ways to transform the heaviness of the impending collapse into beauty… love… oneness…
Music is a powerful energy and I believe that it is one of the most powerful ways to do this. I look forward to creating with you… |

All of these old paradigms need to be released… alchemized… as we build the new systems… new systems based on the wellness of all… humans, animals, plants, Earth… as we see that we are not separate and never have been… we are one.
Now… what does this sound like? |

![]() Welcome Mixters, to the Grand Opus of Alchemy! Are you ready to transform raw sonic elements into musical gold? To journey through the crucible of creativity and emerge with a masterpiece? Then join us for the Alchemy Remix Event, where we’ll delve into the mystical process of musical creation, drawing inspiration from the ancient art of alchemy itself. Just as the alchemists sought to transmute base metals into precious gold, we too will unearth elements within, take disparate sounds and, through collaboration and ingenuity, forge them into something truly extraordinary. Our remix event will begin with the first stage of alchemy, the Nigredo. We’ll then move through the next phases of Albedo, Citrinitas, and Rubedo — week by week. Watch here in the forums as each element of the alchemical process is revealed. ———————- Nigredo (The Blackening): Pells & Samples, July 10-17 Every great work begins with the Nigredo, the blackening — also termed the dark night of the soul and the stage of deconstruction. In this phase, from our own shadows, we create spoken word, pells, and samples. From the deep corners of our subconscious, we unearth aspects of ourselves that have been buried and remain unhealed. Before the rawest of elements can be transformed, they must be exposed. As you write, compose and create, allow your spirit to feel anguish internally that you’ve dissociated from, that has become separate from your spirit. The process of transmutation, though it can at first be painful, begins here. ——————————— Playlists: PELLS SAMPLES REMIXES |

Totally off topic (unless it was an intentional double entendre) but fun coincidence, I just recently saw one of the funniest movies I’ve seen in a long while called The Blackening. Check out the trailer. Now streaming. I mean, if you happen to have Peacock.

Albedo (The Whitening): Listening & Reviewing
From the darkness of Nigredo, we move into the Albedo, the whitening. This is the stage of purification and inspiration, where the essence of your ideas begins to clarify. Here, you’ll start to refine your concepts, arranging the elements into a cohesive structure. Think of it as distilling the noise, bringing harmony and order to the initial chaos. What melodies emerge? How do the rhythms intertwine? Listening to one another is foundational in our community. Music is shared to be heard and felt. Conversing about each other’s uploads helps us shape our art and explore new aspects of our creativity. This is where your individual contributions begin to coalesce into a shared vision. So for the next week, let’s write some reviews and give each other inspiration! —————————————— Playlists: PELLS SAMPLES REMIXES |

I for one would love anyone’s feedback on the new & fun remix relay concept underway here:
https://ccmixter.org/tags/remix_relay It’s been pretty interesting, and I don’t see a finish line yet… maybe never will. |

I for one think it’s a great idea.
The well ordered part of my brain (OCD? maybe) would like to see more adherence to the ‘add one thing’ aspect, but there’s no denying that the herding kittens method of anybody going off in any direction they feel like has resulted in some top notch mixes. |

Citrinitas: The Yellowing (Remixing!)
Refinement and Collaboration The Citrinitas, or yellowing, signifies the moment of awakening, the dawn of a new understanding. This is the heart of our collaborative journey! In this phase, we’ll actively engage with each other’s creations. Share your evolving remixes, provide constructive feedback, and be open to integrating the ideas of others. Perhaps someone else’s bassline will perfectly complement your melody, or a fellow alchemist’s percussion will unlock a new rhythmic dimension in your track. This is where the magic of our community truly shines, as diverse perspectives blend to enrich the collective work. Playlists: PELLS SAMPLES REMIXES |

Rubedo: Refine & Share
The Reddening – Integration and Mastery Finally, we arrive at the Rubedo, the reddening – the culmination, the moment of integration and mastery. This is where all the elements, refined and purified, are brought together to form the magnum opus. Your remix will reach its full potential, a vibrant, living creation born from the collaborative crucible. This is where the individual parts transcend their original forms, becoming a unified, resonant whole. In this phase, pells, samples and remixes combine and are shared both here in our community and in new ways. Playlists: PELLS SAMPLES REMIXES |
