Retro production and equally yesteryear visuals back up the sublimely soulful vocals of Alanna Royale, as the new single Forget Me delivers a catchy nod to simpler times.
Built around a quirky funk-pop arrangement of rhythmic guitars and synths, Forget Me follows the familiar melodic verses from Alanna Royale, towards the brightens and power of an explosive RnB to Soul-Pop hook. It’s a huge moment, but humbly mixed, and presenting a sense of there being something all the more compelling to witness in the live setting.
The effect intrigues, the song is naturally likable, all the more enjoyable as it progresses, and it makes for a fine reminder of the dawn of rhythmically infectious and emotive RnB and Classic Pop – the music from the singers who truly defined the genre.
Alanna Royale is doing her thing with style and conviction, and this is something made clear throughout her expanding repertoire and the impressive album release Trouble Is.
