"Ethereal and Haunting music"

"A unique, wonderful combination of orchestral elements and electronic ones"

"Powerful artistry, dripping with emotion"

Abandoned Toys

Drawing inspiration from contemporary piano music, cinematic orchestration, and immersive ambient textures, Abandoned Toys creates music that exists somewhere between the concert hall and the dream world. Delicate piano melodies intertwine with expansive soundscapes, atmospheric electronics, and lush orchestral arrangements to create deeply emotional listening experiences. Each composition is carefully crafted to evoke vivid imagery, making the music equally suited for focused listening, relaxation, meditation, role playing music, creative work, and visual storytelling.

As both a composer and sound designer, Abandoned Toys embraces the evolving relationship between traditional musical craftsmanship and emerging technologies. By combining classical composition techniques with modern production methods, the project explores new possibilities within contemporary classical music, dark ambient music, and cinematic sound design. The result is a distinctive musical voice that appeals to fans of dark and modern classical composers, film score music, new age music, ambient music, and experimental instrumental works that blur the boundaries between genres.

Whether you are discovering our music for the first time or are a longtime listener of our creations, we invite you to explore the project's growing catalog of releases. From intimate solo piano compositions to expansive cinematic journeys and haunting dark ambient soundscapes, each album offers a unique musical experience quite unlike anything else. Take time to listen to the music, browse the discography, and immerse yourself in a world where modern classical composition, atmospheric sound design, and cinematic storytelling come together to create something truly distinctive. This solo project of Brett Branning continues to expand the world of sound it lives within and we look forward to sharing this ethereal world with you.
