The Dive

This is all folding in upon us all at once....

About Me

Composer, Performer, Musician Jon Pratt of Solos, Gomachi, Solar Impulse, Autopassion, Column, The Rudie Crew, The Twilight Collective, and Firewalker Productions. The Dive, an electronic/prog rock sound with pure music sensativity. Bridging gaps between rock, opera, hip-hop, and electronic pop music, Jon Pratt programs and plays all drums, creates most synth patches from his voice and other experimental sources, and creates all patterns used in the songs. Jon also sings all lead and backing vocals, multi-tracks the instrumental and orchestral tracks, and performs playing drums, keys, and singing lead vocals. Please keep in touch as songs will change and the release of The Dive's debut, emit time, is approaching.I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
