Canadian electronic music luminaries Delerium have released "Dream Palace", an evocative collaboration with American dream-pop duo Magic Wands. Issued through Metropolis Records on October 30 and showcased across music media on October 31, the track serves as the second advance single from their forthcoming twelfth studio album Exaudire, slated for release on January 22, 2027.

Delerium architects Bill Leeb and Rhys Fulber have spent decades sculpting atmospheric electronic soundscapes that seamlessly fuse dark ambient currents, downtempo breakbeats, and guest vocals. "Dream Palace" highlights shimmering guitar melodies and ethereal vocals from Magic Wands, with singer Dexy Valentine penning lyrics exploring alternate dimensions of consciousness.

The music video, co-directed by Shahrnaz Nancy Southwick and Magic Wands, uses a mysterious wooden relic as an allegorical gateway into a transcendent cosmic realm, citing the climactic sequences of Carl Sagan's Contact as inspiration. The track follows "Into the Light", an earlier teaser featuring avant-garde icon Diamanda Galás. The forthcoming twelve-song Exaudire also includes guest appearances from Mimi Page, Inna Walters, Phildel, and Jaël.

Originally conceived as an ambient side venture from Leeb and Fulber's industrial flagship Front Line Assembly, Delerium grew into a global electronic juggernaut with timeless anthems like "Silence". "Dream Palace" confirms that their gift for pairing sublime female vocals with pristine synthesizer production remains unparalleled.
