The group “DivDiv” has released the single “Red Carpet”, for which a video has also been made. The new handwriting includes references to the 90s and plays on the theme of chaos, but it can also be used to hear the symbolic issues of 2021. The recording was made in the concert hall “Lielais Dzintars” in Liepāja.
The origins of the DivDiv group can be traced back to 2015. The main creative activity of its members takes place in other groups in both classical and popular music, thus the band’s music meets different worlds, resulting in an unusual sound. Dainis Melņiks, Justs Markuševskis, Roberts Dinters, Mārtiņš Zālīte, Ēriks Hanzovskis and Jānis Straume call themselves full members of DivDiv.
“The new song was inspired by a depressingly unusual situation from the time of the pandemic, making us remember the times of trouble in Latvia in the 1990s as well,” says the band’s guitarist Dainis. “Accordingly, there was a feeling of rock music from the nineties, which we dressed in a more personal sound for today and a video whose aesthetics will be well known to former owners of VHS tape recorders.”
