JAKARTA - The newcomer pop unit Pelita Groove has just released an extended play (EP) with the title "Sendikale". This album is a follow-up to the single Jingga Kota which Mri launched last year.

Through the release of an album in collaboration with record label Demajors, Pelita Groove tries to present sad music wrapped in dance rhythms

The sedimentale, which means dusk or sunset, has been interpreted by the group from Mataram as a feel of sadness, sadness, and a temporary departure or presence process.

There are six songs in the EP Sentikale. The first song is the 'Flamboyant', whose lyrics are taken from the poem Ruhma Ruksalana Huurul'in, one of the Lombok poets.

Next there is the song 'Sendikale', and Jingga Kota which responds to the beauty of the city of Mataram.

Then, there is 'In Ramaiku feeling Quiet' which is intended as a friend in celebrating loneliness. And 'This sadness' is meant to be a way of exploring the deepest sadness.

Meanwhile, 'Awareness of Yourself' is a closing as well as a focus track, which tells about the twists and turns of love stories that lead to rejection.

The group, whose entire member Gen Z has made their generation's perspective as the starting point for lyric writing, which begins with the elaboration of the vocalist's experience, Olan.

In addition to the 'Flamboyant' which is the result of the transfer of Pelita Groove's vehicle to Ruhma Ruksalana Huurul'in's poetry, all song lyrics were written by him.

For information, Pelita Groove, which was formed in Mataram, West Nusa Tenggara in 2022, is a group that tries to bring back the nuances of the 1980s music.

This group consists of Olan (vocals), Angger (keyboards), Feby (bass), Eky (drums), and Rafi (percussion).
