Brave New Hope is a extended play compact disc by Polish-born pop jazz singer Basia. It was released in the United States on September 24, 1991. In its original release (Epic CD 49K-73593) it featured seven songs. Of these the title track is presented twice: in its original version as first presented on the album London Warsaw New York and also in a new mix (subtitled "Brave New Mix"). The other tracks consist of new mixes of two other songs from London Warsaw New York: "Until You Come Back to Me (That's What I'm Gonna Do)" and "Cruising for Bruising", a new mix of "From Now On" from the album Time and Tide, and two song, "Masquerade" and "Come to Heaven", that were previously unreleased on CD. A later release of the EP (Epic CD EK 48644) added two more songs, "Give Me That" and "Forgive and Forget", that had been issued previously only in Europe.

In his review for this EP release music critic Stephen Thomas Erlewine noted that:

It's an enjoyable listen, though it gives a portrait of the singer that isn't entirely accurate. Basia always wanted to be more sophisticated and not be another dance-pop diva. Nevertheless, she is quite good at being a diva, as Brave New Hope proves. For fans, the EP is a nice diversion.
