L.A.-based trio Hundred Waters deal in atmosphere and emotion, with experimental beats buttressing pop hooks and Nicole Miglis’s breathy, multitracked vocals. Their last album, 2014’s The Moon Rang Like a Bell, played up the group’s expert balance of the electronic and the organic, and “Blanket Me,” the lead single from the new Communicating, does the same, blossoming from a spare piano ballad into an ethereal cloud of digital noises, drums, keyboards and the titular plea

Over 12,000 creepy-crawlies do their creepy-crawliest all over Hundred Waters  Nicole Miglis in this video for “Fingers” so consider this your warning… or invitation.

Like the insects in the Allie Avital-directed video, “Fingers” is built on hesitation and tension, as producer Trayer Tryon’s low-end piano keys and muddled synths glide over Zach Tetreault’s crisp drumming. “Some days I feel like I see you a little too much / But on the days I don’t see you / Are the days don’t see anything at all,” sings Miglis with yearning, but somehow not screaming as 12,000 insects scuttle across her body.

The trio’s new album, which now bears the name Communicating, is slowly turning out to be one that blurs the edges of smart electronic production and live instrumentation.

Communicating comes out September. 14th via Owlsa Records.
