Mega Drive’s Seas of Infinity Album Is Out Now on All Digital Outlets!

Mega Drive: Seas of Infinity | Lakeshore Records

Vehlinggo premieres the chilled-out, vapory “In Dreams,” my favorite cut from an album that trends toward the darker, more kinetic side of things. The first part of the instrumental number is a full-on melodic and meditative movement, culminating in an interesting surprise for the latter half. – Vehlinggo

Gear up, and prepare your ears for some ruthless synth and beats. “Godspeed Us To The Stars” is the quintessential sound we have grown to love from Mega Drive. – NewRetroWave

Lakeshore Records is pleased to release Mega Drive’s new album, “Seas Of Infinity” out now digitally on all digital outlets!  For those of you who haven’t had a chance to preview or listen to the album in full, check it out below.  “Seas of Infinity” is the first album since Mega Drive’s 2015 album, Hardwired V1.4 and 2014’s 198XAD.
