Lee Foss announces his first solo album 'Alchemy'

Despite a mega career and constant presence as a headliner on stages all around the world, it's shocking to remember that Lee Foss' last solo release was back in 2012.

The Hot Creations label boss has finally refocused on his own material and is now set to release his debut solo album 'Alchemy', due out in February of 2017.

"I titled the album Alchemy because I've long been fascinated by the scientific and spiritual dichotomy it represented, sort of as the crossroads of modern science and ancient spirituality and its ethos of distilling perfection in the physical and spiritual realm," the producer explained in a press release. "I feel like making music is the modern alchemy as we search for that perfect series of tones to reach our magnum opus."

It's easy to see Lee's inspirations in even just his description of the forthcoming LP, which will include work that began at the end of 2015. 'Alchemy' will also feature guest collaborations with singer Anabel Englund, London duo Infinity Ink and more.

Ahead of its early 2017 release, the first taste of the album has arrived in the form of the lead single 'Deep Congo', a track as space age and sci-fi inspired as his description of the body of work suggests.
