Alt-pop disruptor Aries joins forces with underground phenomenon brakence for their long-anticipated collaboration, ‘SLEEPWALKER’—a track that dances on the edge of collapse, weaving sweetness and chaos into one mesmerizing soundscape.
Following the sonic world-building of Aries’ return with ‘IN THE FLESH’, ‘SLEEPWALKER’ deepens the mythology—ushering listeners into a universe of shattered glass, fire, and surreal imagery. A cryptic rollout involving 100 mysterious CDs sent to diehard fans hints at a larger narrative in motion, with ‘SLEEPWALKER’ serving as a crucial chapter.
Having toured together and shared the stage at Aries’ own WUNDERWORLD Fest, brakence breaks his silence with this spellbinding duet. Known for his emo-laced electronica and cult following, he meets Aries’ melodic mastery in a moment fans have long dreamt of—teased to wild acclaim on TikTok and Instagram.
This release doesn’t just drop—it unfolds. Aries’ cryptic visuals and cinematic rollouts invite fans into a labyrinthine tale still in the making. The accompanying video for ‘SLEEPWALKER’ leaves traces and hints—hallucinations or invitations? That’s for listeners to decide.
Rapper, singer, producer, director, illustrator—Aries is a creative powerhouse. With over 500M+ global streams, a sold-out headline tour across continents, and two acclaimed albums, he continues to shape an alternative realm all his own. Aries also founded WUNDERWORLD Fest and launched the WUNDERWORLD clothing line, which debuted with a $749 sneaker that sold out in under a minute.
In ‘SLEEPWALKER’, Aries and brakence craft a ballad of beautiful dissonance—where emotions flicker like streetlights in a lucid dream. The track drips with a bittersweet alchemy, a rush of vulnerability and sonic bravery that pulls listeners through a twilight corridor of memory, myth, and melody. Each beat feels like it’s holding its breath, every lyric a whispered confession between collapsing stars. This isn’t just music—it’s a fragile world suspended between reality and fantasy, stitched together by two artists who defy gravity with their voice alone.
Together, they become architects of ache and enchantment, drawing us into a landscape lit by scorched neon and soft static. ‘SLEEPWALKER’ doesn’t echo—it haunts, lingering in the corners of consciousness long after the final note fades.
