Alchemy gets you moving straight away with its jumping beat and lively tempo. Yet, it easily sets itself apart from much of the EDM world by drawing from a deep well of influences, including electronic pioneers Tangerine Dream and Jean Michel Jarre. It’s a track that tells a story too, and invites you into a bright, colourful world all of its own.

EDM is a genre that gets a lot of bad press, but when done right it can be magical. That’s exactly what Alchemy is. You can check it out below.
