1758 – The City is Forever

by VA: 10 Association

Only on Dream Museum Records


You always wake up on a train. The only passenger accounted for is you. The next destination flashes on the screen above: #$$@#*. As a voice rings through the speakers, the dialect sounds strange. You can’t place its origin. As your nerves and muscles start to tense, the destination reveals itself as both mysterious and familiar. The faint lights in the distance are brought closer with each pulse of your heart.

You look out the window and see what everything is leading to. Your mind only connects two words together for the location. The city. It’s where dreams and reality blend into one another. Neon lights gleam against the endless night. You wander the streets, which are littered with propaganda from corporations. Humanity is fighting its war to see who– or what– will prosper. The only thought in your mind is … home …


VA 10 collaborates on a new dreampunk project. 15 tracks that explore each districts’ voice and soul as you delve into the alleys and complexes of this technological metropolis. We hope you enjoy the visit…
