The System Dreams of You

In early 2022, Andreas Hopkins left a promising music career to find a more authentic sound. He spent two years teaching himself guitar, bass, and keys, creating a massive backlog of music that truly reflected his identity. After launching in September 2025, the project gained rapid momentum, leading Andreas to expand the solo mission into a full five-piece band.

Now a collective, the lineup features Andreas Hopkins on vocals, CJ Johnson on bass, Sean Guerrero on guitar, Steven Potier on key-tar and synth, and Jared Deluccia on drums. Together, they write and create to push the project further than a solo artist could alone. They play a wide range of dark alternative genres such as darkwave, industrial metal, post-punk, surf goth and more. By blending 80s grit with modern energy, they have created a high-impact live show that refuses to stay in one lane.
