PREMIERE: Hello Satellites – Hello Lover

The compelling new music video from Melbourne subtle pop act Hello Satellites plays nicely on the lyrical content for single Hello Lover, rendering a simple yet thought-provoking art piece.

The clip coincides with the announcement of the band’s new album, Bright Face, which will be released on July 16.

"This song explores the friction that can be felt in a relationship; the claustrophobia, the fighting for and breaking down of boundaries, the loss of identity and the struggle to keep it," said Hello Satellites' Eva Popov.

Dance filmmaker and director Pippa Samaya took that idea onboard and cast two dancers to illustrate that comfort/discomfort.

"For me, this film clip speaks of the complex paradoxes of a relationship unravelling," Samaya said.

"It speaks of an intimacy so interwoven you forget where one soul begins and another ends."

Hello Satellites have locked down a hometown matinee album launch show for July 16 at The Gasometer.
