PREMIERE: Sentia - Hydroflow

Melburnian prog-rock luminaries Sentia are only a few weeks away from releasing their hotly awaited debut EP, Origins; to pre-emptively celebrate the new work, The Music is stoked to be premiering hectic new single Hydroflow.

Taken from the forthcoming four-track extended player, Hydroflow boasts international origins, having been written while the band were in Hong Kong, but keeps its horizons focused a little closer to home, trading in ruminations on "insecurity, vulnerability and forbidden desire amidst the breakdown of a relationship", set against the band's luscious, dynamic and exploratory instrumentation.

"Hydroflow came about from one of our many jams, one of those loose ideas that begin as a blur but eventually start to make sense," drummer Chris Bodin said in a statement. "We knew this would be a song that was a little more delicate."

The new EP follows on from the success eked out for Sentia following the release of their self-produced single Feast Of Fools, which saw them crack the top 10 on the triple j Unearthed charts in February. That wasn't the first time they'd managed the feat, however; they first accomplished it back in 2013 with three-track release Satellites.

The band are all set to launch Origins when it lands on Saturday 12 August, the same day that they'll knock over their accompanying launch show at Melbourne's Evelyn Hotel. Sentia also have additional Origins tour dates lined up at Habitat, St Kilda (22 August); Music Man, Bendigo (Friday 9 September); and Worldsend Hotel, Adelaide (17 September).
