On "Alchemy", Bret Sexton introduces his formidable improvisational and compositional skills on "electric saxophone". Formerly the leader of Sanskrit, an experimental jazz/fusion outfit, Bret steps out with this debut album under his own name, playing his own works plus two songs by electric bassist Tom Sublett. Also featured is a stirring version of Jimi Hendrix's "...and the gods made love...have you ever been (to electric ladyland)? "Alchemy" is an electronic tour-de-force that includes subtle pieces of improvisational counterpoint, intriguing multi-media compositions, and low-down, funky, groove jams that will tear the roof off of wherever you happen to be! Sexton augments his swirling, ethereal sound with electric guitar and keyboards over a saucy bass/drums combination that blends into a vast, mind-numbing musical sensation; and also displays a beautiful sense of emotional expressiveness that sets him apart from the usual "free jazz" music that often lacks musical direction. An auspiscious album of contemporary saxophone that is undeniably unique and invariably entertaining. Visit subspacerecords.com to listen to more music featuring Bret Sexton.
