Produced by Dubuc, Cory Kilduff and John LaMonica, it was released on October 27, 2014, through Warner Bros. Records as the project's major label debut.

[9] Dubuc initially announced the project on August 8, 2011, via the Mystery Skull's official Tumblr account, where they posted a video of the song Amazing.

Blessed with soulful phrasing, a burnished middle vocal range, and a knack for ascending into a lusty falsetto croon, Dubuc comes across as less the pulsating center of a robotic hive mind, à la Daft Punk, and more like an improbable cross between Fall Out Boy's Patrick Stump and '90s R&B prodigal son D'Angelo.

It also doesn't hurt the album, or Dubuc's cred for that matter, that he's joined here on "Magic" and "Number 1" by both Chic guitar legend Nile Rodgers and '90s soul diva Brandy.

Musically, while most of the songs on Forever are set to deep programmed grooves and heavy synth basslines, Dubuc nonetheless strikes an even balance between his use of synthesizer (his main instrument), real piano, drums, and orchestral strings.
