The track combines the textural atmospheric sounds that have become a hallmark in the composition work from both Sheehan and Liberman with a hypnotically simple synth bass loop.
Sentio is one of the more ambient tracks on the album, a piece that essentially serves as a meditation, a sonic blanket of tonal layers and subtle shifts in harmony.
Their forthcoming album Traces presents a collection of world-building sounds and experiences, with Sentio providing a glimpse into the more meditative and thoughtful side of the project.
As with most of the album, Sentio came together quickly in the studio, serving as a creative outlet for two talented composers and musicians. Moog modular synths from Sheehan combine with textural guitar from Liberman to create another otherworldly sound that, at once, sounds like both artists’ individual voices, yet also like nothing else. Set for release later in 2025, Traces stays true to its sound but also creates a truly unique world of electronic, ambient, post-rock, and cinematic soundscapes.
The single and album arrive alongside a fully formed suite of artwork and video content, created by multimedia artist Sam Caldwell, whose unique work fits perfectly into the distinctive worlds being created by Rhian Sheehan and Arli Liberman.
Set for release in 2025, Traces offers a creative outlet for Rhian Sheehan and Arli Liberman, blending electronic, ambient, post-rock soundscapes. It immerses listeners in a dreamscape that feels both futurist and nostalgic, like a forgotten past or an undiscovered future, offering an immersive, yet intimate cinematic experience that unfolds like the soundtrack to an unmade film, all while staying true to their distinct styles and crafting a vivid and emotive journey.
