Until The Ribbon Breaks which is an innovative creation of visionary artist Pete Lawrie Winfield has returned with the single "2025," an eerie timeless tune. The song was brought out over a decade ago, and this 2024 version seems new and offers fresh insight into Winfield's early musings of technological alienation and human connectedness. This is a magnetic beautiful piece evoking dark feelings but playing them out well today in the barrels that bring more questions than answers, within today's digitally saturated culture.
"2025" lulls listeners into a bittersweet place soundscape that is part grudging mourning and part sanguine repose. Winfield's voice encompasses sung lines somewhere on the ladder between commanding and vulnerable, couched within lyrics that feel like a poetic warning against solitude created by technology. “I think I’ll marry a stranger that I met online”; a horrible juxtaposition to modern-day relationships allowed by digital arenas, the production melds retro synth textures with contemporary electronic edges, creating a sound both familiar and futurist.
What makes "2025" truly special is its emotional depth. A bleak prophecy in the beginning, Winfield spins it into an optimistic developing awareness of our relationship with technology. This speaks to the track's duality, which accounts for its power indictment but also an appeal to rise and, better yet, change.
Also, the music video, for which Winfield himself serves as director, showcases artistic nuances further. Visually stunning and thematically rich, it continues the line of thought opening up with the song.
It's a great return to create a socially astonishing piece. It proves Winfield's knack for delivering thought-provoking music with emotionally moving skills. Newcomers will, therefore find it the right piece to listen to get drawn into the boundary-pushing, convention-challenging artist.
