Minke's "Maybe 25" is the delicate third single from the buzzy London newcomer

New release "Maybe 25" retains many of the elements that made us fall in love with Minke: sweeping percussion, soaring guitars, and a chorus that's at once catchy and classy. That sultry, yearning atmosphere stays true to the undercurrents of sadness found in sophomore release "Armour", manifesting once again in new musings on contemporary culture. Minke somehow manages to avoid cliché as she laments the distance discovered as technology theoretically brings us closer together than ever.

"It was originally inspired by my fleeting past experiences with online dating," Minke explains of "Maybe 25". "As I started to write, it became less and less about that and more a general observation on connection."

"We've never been more connected but disconnected at the same time," she continues. "It's made us more insular, less open to having a conversation with a stranger and maintaining eye contact for more than a second without looking at your phone. So it's about longing for something more than that, whatever that is. Something real in a seemingly disposable world. Questioning if that's still possible. Questioning if it's got the better of you too."
