Sorry to hear of your loss Drew. Lovely tune though - sometimes you just got to feel it out. Take care mate.
I'm sorry for the loss of your beautiful friend Diez. drink lots of water and get lots of rest. you work so hard, Drew. make time and space to do what you and Frank need to do, and take care of yourselves.
And I remember commenting just last week how he was a good boy. This is really sad but it is good he did not suffer and he got a lot of love from his family during his time. It was heartwarming to see him again in all these videos, and how he was really part of it all.
It is a nice homage. The intro with the windchimes and the bird, and then the piano that reverberates into infinity. Meditative, gives space to thought and appreciation. He'll continue to live on in the memories of all who have been following weekly beats. I am sorry for your loss.
Have a safe trip, Diez, to your next stage in the endless cycle of life!
This is a beautiful and fitting tribute to your friend. I'm sorry for your loss
RIP Diez, such a sweet heart. I'll miss his presence in your videos. The pain of that kind of loss is heavy so please take it easy Drew 
very nice tribute to your best friend
My deepest condolences -- if you are crying, I am crying with you. Whatever it may mean to send love, I hope Frank and you and feel it on the other side of the computer screen.
Aw, I'm really sorry for your loss. I consider my dogs full-fledged family members and they're also pretty much my best friends, so I really feel for you. This was a wonderful tribute to Diez. I'm glad he got to be part of your family and part of your art. He for sure had some memorable appearances in your videos this year. Sending best wishes to you in these sad times.
I am very sorry for the loss of Diez. I can hardly imagine how it feels, when such a beauitul true friend passes away. Our dog Paula (12) is part of my musical process, she is always around me, when I am making sounds in the basement or listening to weeklybeats. >She loves music. Have to make a requiem, such beautiful as you did, as well.
awww it didn't even register to me (till watching the video) how frequent a WB feature he was...
what a great concrete set of memories to have made this year though..
I am so very sad to hear about your loss.
What a beautiful tribute to Diez both the song & the video!
Wishing you and Frank comfort through this difficult time.
I'm so sorry to hear this. I know losing a loved one like that can be really difficult. I couldn't help but hug my kitty while listening. This was an emotional and touching tribute to Diez.
Beautiful tribute to a beautiful dog. I'm so sorry for your loss. I'll keep you and Diez in my thoughts and prayers.
This is absolutely beautiful as it is sombre... The video is just wonderful. I hate to say it but it's such a reminder that time is ever moving and we can't take it for granted, and it's so great seeing just how much of a good time Diez had as part of your family. Diez clearly had the best final months any good doggo could wish for, I hope that brings some comfort and eventually the sadness and hurt will be more and more replaced with the fond memories and stories. Pet are dear to me, it's emotional just writing all this out, the tune is soundtrack worthy in it's own right. Hang in there Frank and Drew.
So sorry to hear about Diez. Thanks for sharing him with us over the years.
I'm so sorry for your loss. It's so hard to lose such a good friend. Diez seems like he was an amazing companion. I hope you are healing ok and that you get a smile on your face when you remember him.
The video and the song are both lovely. I think they're a wonderful tribute.
Just catching up on the videos, so sorry for your families loss, it has been great to see Diez in the videos this year, this is a beautiful tribute to Diez.
pasting my comment from YT: So sorry to hear that! I have loved seeing him in your videos this year! This is touching. Dogs really can be our best friends. Unconditional love. I'm going to go hug my dog now and try not to shed a tear 
the song and footage, I almost did shed a tear.
Hey everyone,
Not going to do individual responses for this one, but just want to tell everyone that Frank and I really appreciate all of the support. I really didn’t have it in me to write a song that week. I opened up the piano and just put my hands down and that chord showed up. It sounded good and the sound gave me the energy I needed to get through the week. Aphex Twin’s Nanou2 has been a deeply inspirational piece for me - this is my version: Diez2 if you will. I’m so grateful that we shot so much footage of him this year. We will treasure the videos for years to come.
// Drew
