Experimenting with a new, homemade rhythm instrument, this performance incorporated modular synths, piano and acoustic guitar to create ambient soundscapes. Check out the VIDEO HERE!
Out Now! Helen Money / Will Thomas team up with this collaborative that’s dark, ambient, cinematic, and intense. LP available with stunning translucent Yellow Vinyl on Thrill Jockey Records. Listen and buy here.
Here’s one we haven’t tried before. Helen Money and I were approached by theatrical music house, Pusher to create a piece of music that would be fed into an AI generated program designed by artist Scholastic Rodent. The result is a randomly generated set of images that were triggered by the sounds and dynamics in the music. In this case, the artist used impressionist paintings that morph and blend images of landscapes, figures and abstract color fields. Super fun project for sure. Click HERE to watch on YouTube. Hope you enjoy!
Who knew plants could dance so well? We’re excited to have Spill Magazine premiere the new video for the Wish I Had A Pulse remix ft. Natalie Walker. We had a great time creating this video that features a selection of spring blooms that sprung up all around the studio in Ojai. We put them in a power drill and they seemed to come to life!

Here’s a very strange coincidence - today, May 26th is National Paper Airplane Day - the same week that the new Dive Index album, Waving At Airplanes is released. I swear, I didn't plan it! In honor of the day, I printed a pattern of the album cover design and made (and launched!) a paper airplane. Good times… xW
So thrilled to have Week in Pop premiere the single and video for Pristine Wilderness.

Virtual performance from quarantine of the new Dive Index song, Window to Window (feat. Natalie Walker). I was L.A., Natalie was in Colorado, cameos by Sparko and the modular.
So thrilled to have Electronic Sound Magazine premiere the new single and Interactive Music Video!
We’re super excited to launch - blinkingred.love - an Interactive Music Video that allows you to explore the song Wish I Had a Pulse in a new way. The song is about a precarious A.I. relationship so it seemed appropriate to transport Natalie into a digital world. We split the song into separate tracks so you can move sliders to adjust different elements and 'mix' the song anyway you like. The sliders also manipulate the visuals on the screen including the lyrics and Natalie's performance.

Have fun, play around and enjoy the sounds!

The third Dive Index single - Wish I Had a Pulse (feat. Natalie Walker) - is out today! Check out the Interactive Music Video to experience the song in an interesting way at blinkingred.love.
Here’s the second Dive Index single, Near Enough (feat. Merz) from the album, Waving At Airplanes out May 29th. As of today, we’ve been in ‘safe at home’ mode for the past month. It seems as though it’s been ages since we’ve had any normal social interaction beyond a screen. This song could also be interpreted as a comment on social distancing, but it’s more about being content with what we have. Something that’s certainly being highlighted during this crisis. We hope this meditative track will provide a moment of escapism. Enjoy.

Today marks the release of the new Dive Index single - Window to Window (ft. Natalie Walker). We hope this song can provide a brief respite from the strange times in our current world at the moment. Natalie and I wrote and recorded this song back in October and it’s about a missed connection. Although listening today, the song could be interpreted as an ode to social distancing. I wish we could claim to be that clairvoyant. If we were, we would all be sitting in cafes, venues, theaters, and touching our faces again. Alas, such is not the case, but we hope everyone out there is safe and sane. Happy distancing and thanks for listening!
