Hardest Part Mini CD
Monday, October 11th, 201015on15 Our Haystack
Thursday, October 7th, 2010Awesome blog/web show 15on15 has posted One In A Googolpex’s track “Our Haystack” and done a nice little review as well.
“Their music ambitiously frolics amongst youthful synths like a child at play whilst furiously strummed acoustic guitar weaves though soulful vocals that in many ways contradict the gleeful spontaneity that comprise the charmingly uptempo sonic sounds. When visualizing this track I envision a child looking through a kaleidoscope in search of the answers to the questions roaming his then naive mind about what will become of him.”
These kids have to be amongst the coolest 15 year olds around. It kind of restores one’s faith in the future.
Pre-order The Dropout Cats now
Sunday, October 3rd, 2010Like a pop music emissary from the future One In A Googolplex delivers his masterpiece The Dropout Cats.
A world in which 8 bit game blips, acoustic guitars, toy synths, percussion and soul filled vocals can exist in harmony is no farther away than the play button.
Though it won’t officially be out til Oct. 19th we now have it up for pre-order which means if you place your order now we’ll ship it out to you as soon as we can (CDs by end of this week, Cassette by next week). Be the first on your block to rock the Dropout Cats on limited CD 10$ or on limited Cassette 8$ (should have photos soon).
comfrt crtures are weird animls
Friday, October 1st, 2010
We consulted Nietzsche about the newest addition to the Alchemist Collective, comfrt crtures…here’s what he had to say:
“O my animals, chatter on like this and let me listen. It is so refreshing for me to hear you chattering; where there is chattering, there the world lies before me like a garden. How lovely it is that there are words and sounds! Are not words and sounds rainbows and illusive bridges between things which are eternally apart? Speaking is a beautiful folly: with that man dances over all things. How lovely is all talking, and all the deception of sounds! With sounds our love dances on many-hued rainbows.”
Quite.

You are invited to Weddings
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010We are excited to announce that on August 24th we’ll be releasing new artist Atlantic at Pacific‘s rad debut “Weddings”. It’s full of hazy shimmering beat driven beach music that is as much akin to Eno’s ambient work and Boards of Canada as it is to recent “Chillwave” sounds from the likes of Washed Out. We’ll be featuring some Atlantic at Pacific material here as we lead up to the release date. For now, here is the cover featuring an awesome image by holgabot.
Vintage Pistol Arrows photos
Saturday, June 12th, 2010I heard the Ghost Train running through town tonight and it made me think back on the Pistol Arrows days. Turns out there’s still a few remnants of the band on the interwebs like these photos by “D.R.” Russell from the Blue Fish Companion VIII

New artist: Atlantic at Pacific
Friday, April 23rd, 2010We are excited to announce the addition of a new member to the Alchemist Records family: Atlantic at Pacific. Mainly the work of Austin Wood of Santa Cruz, CA, those familiar with the sounds of Washed Out and Toro y Moi will find some similarities but Atlantic at Pacific definitely has it’s own thing going on. The debut EP Weddings will be out sometime this Summer, which given the tropical feel of the sound is quite fitting. More to come.
