It has been a while since we heard anything from The Synthetic Dream Foundation, the project by Brett Branning, that has delivered us some stunning neoclassical industrial electronic work in the past.

Coming up after a rather long hiatus via Branning’s own Mythical Records imprint is a brand new album on May 16th, 2024 called “A Light in the Darkness”. The hiatus was caused by Branning working on his other neoclassical darkwave project Abandoned Toys, and his psychedelic downtempo music project, Ephemeral Mists.

The new The Synthetic Dream Foundation album will hold 10 new original tracks and promised to embed new sounds and styles. The album can already be pre-ordered with one preview track for streaming on the Mythical Record Bandcamp page.

The album will be available on all streaming services May 16th. Warmly recommended!
