forever ☆ "Second Gen Dream"

Kansas City duo forever ☆ return with Second Gen Dream, a seven-track 12” EP that stretches the boundaries of contemporary electronic music. Following their 2023 breakout 3 Series, the new release blends shoegaze textures, UK garage rhythms, and jungle-inspired breakbeats into a fluid, immersive soundscape.

Tracks like “Blade Silver Metallic” and “Competizione” balance euphoric rave energy with reflective, emotional undertones, pairing ethereal vocals with shimmering distortion and kinetic percussion. The EP moves seamlessly between cathartic highs and introspective comedowns, creating a listening experience that is both exhilarating and intimate.

Second Gen Dream is made for mixtape curators, nocturnal city wanderers, and dreamers alike—those who chase fleeting moments of beauty and motion. It’s at once the ecstatic afterparty and the quiet cab ride home, a record that encapsulates the tension and release of contemporary electronic life while carving out forever ☆’s singular sonic identity.
