Hailing from the UK’s west coast city of Cardiff, Until the Ribbon Breaks is a recent addition to the NYC scene. Interestingly enough, they sound nothing like a NYC or British band – or maybe they do, at times. Yes because these guys’ music is like a collage of influences dominated by the African American ingredients of soul and funk, but revisited through an electronic approach that’s partly reminiscent of Trip Hop (Bristol is pretty close to Cardiff after all) and structured EDM a la’ Moby. Electro-soul ballad "Pressure" (streaming) has gained them a lot of attention in 2013, while slow burning, sweaty noir funk "A Taste of Silver" – released earlier in 2014 – is keeping the band on the forefront of the music blogs.
