Artist Info: "My Alchemy" epitomizes the titular theme of January Thompson's 2019 album, Kintsugi. Based on the centuries-old Japanese tradition of mending broken ceramics with gold, Kintsugi means 'The Golden Repair'. Not only is there no attempt to hide the damage, but the repair is literally illuminated. "My Alchemy" is a physical manifestation of resilience. In this case instead of gold, it was music that strengthened and illuminated the break into this song.
The Sea Thunder remix was done by the album's producer, Matt Robertson, and the second remix, by Ramin Sakurai, was done by the producer of January's first album.
