On February 14, 2023 angel released a reimagining and remix of dream1ng of u titled dreaming of 2, with an overal darker and processed production compared to the original. The music video uses very distorted imagery and production to evoke discomfort. It features angel's original model crying and hunched over in pain as their new model reached out a helping hand. dreaming of 2 features stark projector, ocean, and wind sound effects which slowly get louder and more ambient as the song progresses. The song's dissonant tone contrasts with the cutesy and "aesthetic" background; the dreaminess of the song slowly turning nightmareish. https://youtu.be/4HLFtigUUsg?si=oWJQ9oB4DqrxA62C
On March 31, for Easter, angel released a cover of the popular song, Rabbit Hole by Deco*27. The vocals, which were notably in the song's original language, japanese, were by angel. The vocal production and timing of the song was by wycrome. The background music was used from the original song with permission from Deco*27.
The song is very fast paced, being designed for Hatsune Miku, and not a human to sing. Rabbit Hole has a punishing pace, a very high BPM, near constant lyrics, and a quirky hyperpop production.
The song quickly became the most successful song and video on angel's channel to date. A music video featuring various pieces of art created for the video, along with capitalizing on the popularity of the song when few had done japanese covers, went into making the video a success.
