from Giuliano Delli Paoli
«A continuous cycle without end». It is the translation of the title of the new single of the Milanese duo Out Offline, «Endless Loop». The song, whose video clip is an exclusive preview for Corriere del Mezzogiorno, is released today on all streaming platforms and is a sweet pop ballad, the text of which comes from a reflection on the condition of captivity experienced during the days of the lockdown. “Every day was the same – remember the two musicians – we looked out the window but could not see anything that came close to normal”. For the very young sisters Sonia and Zaira Lo Giudice, respectively singer and singer / pianist, the long forced stay therefore takes on the appearance of an infinite limbo, a tunnel from which to escape as soon as possible. A desire to return to life well represented also in the chiaroscuro of the video clip shot by Stefano Taccucci, which sees Sonia and Zaira at the center of black and white images that suddenly change to color as a metaphor for the arrival of freedom, and at the same time a characteristic representation of the moment. particular, sometimes extremely unpredictable, experienced by adolescents, their peers.
