Electronic music at the 9th SubZERO Festival, San Jose, California, June 2016
Forgotten future will be performing at the 9th SubZERO Festival in San Jose, California, on Friday, June 3rd.
The 9:50pm set will include tracks both from the forgotten future: W1 and Realignment albums. Presented by Distortion Productions, the festival will feature various artists from the ambient, electro, tech house, experimental modular and other electronic music scenes. For the list of other performers and more info, visit Distortion Productions‘ website.
We are happy to announce the release of forgotten future’s brand new EP, forgotten future: realignment.
Few fans have realized that the edge of forgotten future: W1 disc lists four additional tracks not actually included on the album – look close and you will find these four extra track titles. The new EP features these four original tracks, as well as remixes of three ff:W1 tracks by forgotten future and electronic music artist/DJs Cubricon and BrokenSine are featured on the EP.
Realignment is an auxiliary EP to the W1-W4 series. While this release isn’t yet the eagerly anticipated second album of the “W” series, it is an official part of the forgotten future multiverse. The 7-track album takes its place between the W1 and W2 albums of the concept series, completing the journey of W1 with the cutting-edge and spacey psybient / ambient organic electronic music that fans have come to expect from forgotten future.
The album is downloadable in digital formats, including a standard and a 24-bit 48Khz Studio Master edition. As a first for Creative Shop Music, the release is priced using the Pay-what-you-want model, allowing fans to download the album for the price of their choosing (which can even be free). The release date was chosen to commemorate two historical events: Gagarin’s “first human space flight” and NASA’s first space shuttle mission – both celebrating their anniversaries on April 12th.

“You might feel like you need a doctorate in philosophy and physics to understand Dobos’ forgotten future. Many of the concepts find him questioning culture, religion and science, including Darwinism.” – John Diliberto
Read about the philosophical and spiritual story that resulted in the birth of forgotten future
“My views don’t contradict these [various] religions: they rather focus on the larger picture than on the well-known stories and characters. I don’t really disagree with science either, I simply expand on (okay, also break) its rules in the name of progression – and in knowing that we actually know very, very little. In my idea of a Multiverse, Nature does have a central role, but it isn’t exclusively governed by the tiny percentage of laws that we have so far established based on documented experiences (i.e. science). But again, all of this doesn’t matter: the goal of forgotten future is to put its listeners in a sonic environment full of emotional details, which trigger personal memories and inspire the listeners to “wake up” and find their own answers to these questions.” – Julius Dobos
forgotten future: realignment [EP] – release coming in late March, 2016
While fans are discovering more and more of the many hidden details on their forgotten future: W1 physical album copies and in their digital booklets, only a few have realized that the edge of the disc lists more than just the 15 tracks found on the W1 album – look close and you will find four additional titles named!
Unreleased or hidden tracks? Not anymore.
We are planning the Spring, 2016 release of a brand new EP titled forgotten future: realignment, featuring these four original tracks, which were previously listed, but intentionally omitted from the album. In addition, remixes of three original ff:W1 tracks by electronic music artist-DJs forgotten future, Cubricon and BrokenSine will be featured on the EP.
The 7-track realignment will take its place between the W1 and W2 albums of the concept series, completing the journey of W1 with the cutting-edge and spacey psybient / ambient organic electronic music that fans have come to expect from forgotten future. While the EP is nearing completion, the full-length W2 is currently in the pre-production phase.
