1)Alchemist is a progressive death metal band from Canberra, Australia. The band was formed in 1987 by Adam Agius (lead vocals/guitar), eventually teaming up with the present line up of Roy Torkington (guitar), Rodney Holder (drums/percussion) and John Bray (bass) which has been together since 1992. Since 2003, Alchemist has also featured a fifth member in Nick Wall, who provides samples for live shows.
The band announced in June 2005 that they were releasing a compilation album entitled Embryonics; this was released in late October. It covers material released between 1993 to 1998, including material from the first three albums, the 1998 EP release and demo material. Bonus tracks include two songs recorded live on the radio in 1996. The band is also working on a DVD, which will be released in 2006.

2) Alchemist is also Nikolai Krinitski a Russian born musician. Has dedicated himself to music for the last seventeen years. His main education involved cello and later piano at the Moscow Conservatoire. Also in RCM (Royal College of Music) composition and orchestration and arrangement. In early 2003 Nikolai became interested in synthesis and music production. Three years and 160 tracks later he has found his 'home straight', concentrating mostly on IDM and Breakbeat.
Being of a 'classical' background Nikolai puts big emphasis on the melodic line and structure of the piece. Rhythm is a big feature in every track, being erratic, broken and with the use of unconventional drum-programming and sound quality. That creates very special auras all the way throughout the piece.
Nikolai has 3 projects; one under his own moniker Nikolai Krinitski, secondly, as Aphrodite and lastly as Alchemist (his latest incarnation). Nikolai has been signed to WLM since 2006

Alchemist Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where all was so clear yet unseen.
And boundary less I could go,
My physical form did not show,
And looking down from below,
At the people who gathered and cried,
Came the realization that my body had died.
The lyrics of Alchemist's song "Found" describe a vivid dream in which the singer experiences a sense of freedom and detachment from their physical form. The dream seems to be a spiritual experience, as the boundaries of the physical world disappear and the singer feels liberated from their body. Looking down on the people gathered and crying below, the singer suddenly realizes that they are no longer living and their body has died. The dream is a reminder of our own mortality and the temporal nature of the physical world.
The song evokes a sense of spirituality and introspection, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own lives and the meaning of their existence. It seems to suggest that there is more to life than what we see and experience in the physical world, and that we should be open to exploring new dimensions of consciousness and spirituality.
Line by Line Meaning
I once had a vivid dream,
I had a very realistic and vivid experience while I was asleep.
Where all was so clear yet unseen.
Everything in the dream made perfect sense, but it was not something I could see in my waking life.
And boundary less I could go,
There were no limits or constraints on where I could travel within the dream.
My physical form did not show,
I didn't have a physical body or manifestation in the dream.
And looking down from below,
I had a view from a lower vantage point or perspective.
At the people who gathered and cried,
I noticed a group of people who had gathered and were emoting in a sad way.
Came the realization that my body had died.
I suddenly understood that in waking life, my physical body had passed away.
