WE DID IT. 🖤🔥 You did it!!!
Now stretching for VINYL record!
Element of Fate's DREAMFALL is officially funded with 13 days left to go!
That means our album and DREAMFALL music video are now becoming a reality. Thank you so much to everyone who supported, shared, commented, and believed in this dream. It truly means the world to us.
Now we’re reaching toward our next huge goal: a LIMITED EDITION VINYL pressing of DREAMFALL.
For years, we’ve dreamed of holding our own album on vinyl. There’s something timeless about music you can physically hold, collect, display, and experience.
For those interested in vinyl: our $250 DREAMERS collector tier and above currently include a guaranteed vinyl copy IF we successfully reach the $13.5K stretch goal.
If vinyl unlocks, we also plan to offer it later as an add-on for lower tiers, but this will be a very limited run, so collector tiers are the safest way to reserve one now.
That said, every pledge amount helps and every share keeps this dream growing.
Thank you for dreaming with us. 🖤

We just crossed $4,000 funded on DREAMFALL. ❤️
Thank you so much to everyone supporting this project so far. With only 19 days left, our tiny band still needs help to fully fund the DREAMFALL music video!!
Every pledge and share really helps us get one step closer to our goal.
To me, DREAMFALL is more than just a band project it’s one large art project combining music, fantasy, storytelling, handcrafted art, and now cinematic video.
The goal is not fame or fortune. The goal is to create art that makes people feel something.
Many rewards are Kickstarter-exclusive, including the bronze DREAMFALL key pendant and fate coin.
Dream with us!

If you’ve been thinking about checking out the campaign, and haven't yet now’s a great time. And if you can’t back right now, sharing the project really helps us more than you know.

What if the thing you’re most afraid to share… is the thing you’re meant to create?
✨ It’s live. ✨
After years of building this, Dreamfall is on Kickstarter!
This is Element of Fate’s first full album and the most ambitious (and honestly, scariest) thing I’ve ever created.
This project came out of struggle, doubt, and learning to keep going when I wasn’t sure I could… and somehow, it became the thing that kept me creating.
We went all in creating music, art, and handcrafted rewards like a bronze Fate divination coin, plus Kickstarter-exclusive pieces you won’t find anywhere else.
✨ Dream with me.
✨ See what fate has in store.
If you’ve been thinking about supporting, now is the best time early momentum really matters, and the Early Bird Mega Collector deal ends May 5th.

Big things are brewing… 🔥
Our first album Dreamfall is almost here, and we’re bringing it to life through Kickstarter on April 30.
This is more than just music, it’s a journey through darkness, and becoming something stronger. A path shaped by fate… and the choices we make when everything feels uncertain.
If you’ve ever chased something that felt just out of reach… this is for you.
Will you dream with us?
Or will you leave it to fate?
