French producer Overscaper will release his debut album Dream Recursion on 5 February 2027 through London synthwave label Aztec Records, and the eight-track record is already up for pre-order on Bandcamp.
The label pitches it as melodic, analog darksynth with a touch of chiptune: raw analog synths and dirty textures, sitting between melodic darksynth and angrier synthwave, with a melody that sticks even in the heaviest passages.
Dream Recursion is told from inside a loop and opens a larger science-fiction saga. The album follows a single event, from Tears Reality Apart to Unforeseen Consequences, as the digital world cracks, a consciousness appears and a dream recalls itself until it produces someone. The ’90s run all through it, from MS-DOS and grainy VHS to game soundtracks.
Behind the name is Arthur Grimbert, who wrote and produced the whole album. He has made music since 1999, moving from rock to progressive metal and then into electronic music through trip-hop in 2012. Waveshaper and LukHash pushed him toward synthwave, and he has devoted himself to it fully for the past year.
