Devils and Angels is one of Forgotten's best productions to date. The opening melody is as ethereal as it is foreboding to the unsuspecting drop at 0:05. Forgotten uses this to instantly launch us into a soundscape filled with his lush, signature sound. He's made something special, and he lays it all on the table. If you're familiar with Forgotten's earlier work, you'll recognize this drop is on par with those in Limitless, CP77, and In the Cut Part II. But after you've given Devils and Angels a full listen, you'll realize the drop is not what elevates it to the top of the Forgotten discography shelf. In fact, you'll notice it features no extravagant drumwork, no complex variations in melody, and no flex of his sampling prowess like what we hear in Interstellar. Minimalism - not maximalism - is what makes this track so massive. Go ahead. Give it another listen. Do you hear what happens after 0:28? Forgotten cuts the bass, pulls the underlying melody, and floats a set of harmonizing chords. This isn't addition - it's subtraction. It's a tease. It's elusive. Less is more, and Forgotten leverages this ethos throughout the track to keep us hooked. It's a masterclass in production minimalism. Now let's listen even more closely. Pay attention to the lower end of the beat once it drops at 0:05. Do you hear how it never reaches an end? In contrast, think about how the song "Happy Birthday To You" ends. Hum it if you need to. You'll hear the finale. You'll hear it has an ending. But Devils and Angels has no conclusion. The beat never resolves. It's unrelenting suspense and unstoppable momentum to the very end. And if you think you've felt this in other tracks from Forgotten, you're right: This is exactly what he employed in the mixes for Lambo, July, ICE, God Is My Shield, and Franchise 2.0. Once you hear it, you can't miss it. It's a key element to The Unmistakable Sound of Forgotten. p.s. if you haven't already, go support Forgotten on Patreon.

I'm not Travis Scott But you can step into my universe Astronomically amazing You can see it in my verse Like Bone Thugs and 3-6 I'm sensitive about my music You're getting pressed if you disrespect it Pay attention to how I'm moving Many may ask Am I a prophet A human or extraterrestrial I'm none of it I'm a luminary which means I'm more celestial Planetary They fear a man with a little power To them that's very scary That's true until they reach they final hour Then it's where he where he Nowhere to be found Cuz the me that I was Been stomped in the ground And wiped off this Earth All cuz I've been misunderstood Chameleon in society But don't forget that I'm from the hood Thats dark times and hard times Got my hands up apartheid I've been rebuilding myself No need to ask, if I done start mine We can do better than yesterday We are evolving like everyday We create culture in every way But vultures will feed on you when you break Stay solid like an ice cube Imma do what I do Don't nobody care what I do What you go through then will define you
