Bad end

Father Time: As we approach our later years, we tend to take stock of our lives and mull over our past achievements and failings. When faced with the reality of our own immortality, we realise what is important to us and hope our eleventh hour will arrive with few regrets. We have to own our mistakes and while we still have time, try to make amends. This is a song about the desire to leave the ones we love in peace with a sense of understanding and ultimately... forgiveness.

Father Time

My pen is running out of ink
As I frantically try to write down
Some kind of truth to show who I am
Before my ship runs aground

But I lose my sense of rhythm
In the precious moments I am given
Can I really be forgiven?
And reconcile the past with now

I can’t change what has gone before
I own the mistakes I’ve made
Father Time’s no friend of mine
With each shuffle a step nearer the grave
Regret leans in and rests on my shoulder
Whispering its menace in my ear
In the quiet of the night it tries to blind my sight
A shuddering chilling fear

But I lose my sense of rhythm
In the precious moments I am given
Can I really be forgiven?
And reconcile the past with now

But I lose my sense of rhythm
In the precious moments I am given
Can I really be forgiven?
And reconcile the past with now

Father Time’s no friend of mine
I’m gripping tighter onto the line

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.
