Rinnovare, the project of Canadian producer and multi-instrumentalist Matteo Neufeld, unveils his most intimate work yet with A Lucid Factory For Her Encounters. The album is a personal exploration of transformation and memory, balancing fragility and catharsis through raw acoustic melodies, lush arrangements, and emotionally honest vocals.

Grounded in real instrumentation, the record features upright bass from Mickey Smith (Ben Howard), alongside clarinet, vibraphone, strings, and live drums that bring warmth and organic depth. Fingerpicked guitar and hushed piano weave through cinematic swells, creating soundscapes that feel both tender and otherworldly.

Track four introduces Australian vocalist Indyana, whose spectral presence expands the album’s palette with striking vulnerability and strength. Neufeld’s own delicate, sincere vocals carry the record, leaving a lasting resonance.

Sonically, A Lucid Factory for Her Encounters recalls Novo Amor, Bon Iver, and Sufjan Stevens, yet forges its own space with handcrafted intimacy and detail. Mixed by Chad Skinner (Half Moon Audio) and mastered by Taylor Deupree (12k), the album offers a listening experience that is both cinematic and deeply personal.

Rinnovare - In a Straight Line

Lyrics:

Above the chimney tops
the smoke ascends to view
as if all the house’s thoughts
were in a cloud like in cartoons

it’s true we are in pain
there’s no use in lying
but if we can’t smile while in flames
then really, what’s the use in smiling?

the more I learn and grow
the more I realize
if I knew all there was to know
well then, I’d always be surprised

with the ocean to our west
and the mountains to our east
it’s the places we know best
that we understand the least

I’m aching and I’m shivering
 in my flesh
I’m banking on this river
to stop and rest
I’m making a decision
at long last
to not make a decision
just yet

there’s a diamond in the sky
made of diamonds in the sky
in summers slept outside
I’d pitch a game there every night

and I’d ponder it a while
how wondrous and bizarre
that folks from every time
had wondered up at those same stars:

an ancient mariner lost at sea
looking for directions home
a peaceful forest glade where friends
around a fire eat and smoke

or a bloody battlefield
with fallen sons strewn all about
where mothers weep beneath proud Leo
while fathers carry their boys out
and they say, 

‘they’ve put out every light
again
they’ve poured away the wide
ocean
they’ve packed up the moonlight
into wood
and nothing now can ever come to good

no stars are here welcome
anymore
go rip apart the sun
banish warmth
stop all the instruments
close the books
for nothing now can ever come to good
nothing now can ever come to good’

and as I’d gaze about
at all those flaming spheres
the more I’d try to count
the more and more that would appear

and I’m not sure but I would guess
all wells are infinitely deep
and if we’re not diving toward the depths 
we’re cursed to think they can be reached

it’s the people you love best
that you understand the least

Auden
