Movin' On To 2024 With Dimash

CCTV (China Central Television) just loves Dimash and I'm happy! They keep asking him to perform on their shows, such as the 2024 New Year's broadcast.   Dimash performed 'Movin' On' with Jike Junyi, a really fun and energetic number.

The Storyteller In Dimash Qudaibergen

  It is the storyteller that I love in Dimash.   He uses every tool he has to convey a message or a tale. His words, his melody, his eyes, his hands... whatever he can arrange. And he combines them in a mesmerising whole that sears itself in our minds, hearts and souls.   Dramatic much 😂 but it seems this is how I have to be in order to convey how I feel about his art. Ordinary syntax just don't do the job right. Phew. Here are photos taken of Dimash by Laura DimashDQD at Hong Kong Concert on December 23, 2023.

People's Artist of Kazakhstan : Dimash Qudaibergen

Dimash is very fascinating to me because he is a living example of someone who behaves as if he doesn't 'see' limits or manufactured barriers. I use the word 'manufactured' because these limits or barriers are created by human beings, cultures or historical precedents.   Here's some insight from Sholpan Tabaeva's post. It's translated by Instagram so some of the phrases might be imprecise. https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cy1omtGNW4h/    Dimash's first performance as the People's Artist of Kazakhstan. This honorary title was for some reason abolished in Kazakhstan far back in 1999 and in the 21st century it is acquired for the first time. 8 artists of different genres have been awarded the titles, but Dimash stands as a mansion in this list. And not only because he is now the most popular and well-known artist in the country, glorifying Kazakhstan far beyond its borders. Dimash will certainly go down in the history of Kazakhstan, because his impo

Dimash Has Been Honoured with 'People's Artist of Kazakhstan' Award

 I am feeling sooo happy because of the award Kazakhstan has honoured Dimash with.  This award 'People's Artist of Kazakhstan' is the highest honour that Kazakhstan can give to anyone in his field. It is truly something very special. He has been recognised as someone very valuable with the highest levels of contribution towards his nation. All his efforts to uplift his country has been validated. Bravo, Dimash! Alga, Dimash! Images from Aqorda Telegram

Facebook Is Crazy

 I just had a totally normal Facebook post taken down. It was just a congratulatory post about Dimash receiving honours from his country. Facebook said it has cybersecurity issues. I think it's Facebook that has issues. Instagram too. META 🙄😒 So now I'm looking into alternatives. This blog is definitely one alternative. So I'll be focusing more into it. But I have another platform in mind.

Dimash Is A Cut Above

  Two years ago, Dimash came out of the lockdown period and absolutely stunned me when he sang 'I Miss You' onstage in a performance so soulful and so personal that it felt very very real... as if he was really feeling the loss of his beloved dears (yes, I'm being fanciful).  But that's one of his capabilities... to make every song feel so personal, so real to each listener that they walk in a haze for hours afterwards (half in disbelief and half in amazement)   I'm no newbie to super good singers. I grew up in a house of instrumentalists and I had access to recordings from so many decades. Believe me when I say Dimash is a cut above many many singers.  Dang, he's amazing.

How Very Enchanting Dimash Is

  Saw these screenshots on Weibo (taken by KLEEFUNINELIE from a Dimash48 fancam) and marvelled all over again over how very gorgeous and charismatic Dimash is. http://m.weibo.cn/status/4310233330882673  Once you are caught by the beauty of his art (which encapsulates everything of him, his sound, his physicality, his drama onstage!), all it takes is a visual and his music plays again in your head. And you are lost again.   I had to go over to Dimash48 channel to watch this fancam again.   How very enchanting you are, Dimash. I'm so pleased to be one of those who hears the sound of your flute.

Why Dimash is Crazy Good : The Opinion of an American Rocker

  Very descriptive words about Dimash... and I agree!   Caravan.kz article (by Akhmet Talapuly) https://www.caravan.kz/news/pochemu-dimash-bezumen-mnenie-amerikanskogo-rokera-961680/    Here is the text (translated by Google)   Why Dimash is crazy good : the opinion of an American rocker   The name Dimash is a symbol of virtuoso vocal art, which goes beyond ordinary musical concepts. His talent takes listeners into the world of the greatest performers, and his story has become legendary. He is the brightest representative of the musical art, possessing indescribable skill and style that impresses and inspires. Without embellishment, we can say that Dimash is not just a singer, he is a musical genius who is able to represent any genre and make it his own.  His performance makes millions of hearts beat faster, and his voice leaves an unforgettable impression. Despite his young age, he has already won the respect and recognition of even the most sophisticated masters of vocal art. In

The Full Story of 'The Story Of One Sky'

From DimashNews.com article https://en.dimashnews.com/the-story-of-one-sky-a-new-composition-by-dimash-qudaibergen/    The Story of One Sky: A new composition by Dimash Qudaibergen (September 24, 2022)   On September 23, the solo concert of Dimash in Almaty saw the premiere of his song “The Story of One Sky”.  On September 24, at the artist’s fan meeting the audience saw the MV to this composition for the first time. This complicated composition with a variety of music themes and tricks is a result of three years of compositional work of Dimash Qudaibergen. Today, at the Kazakh artist’s fan meeting with his fans, the audience saw the MV to this work for the first time.  The film is based on a story written by Dimash, with his own screenplay.  The director Alina Veripa told about the creation of the music video for the new song.   The clip is divided into several parts. The first one is about childhood. The main character, his 2 friends are connected by childhood stories and symbols

OMIR 'Life' By Dimash

 I think Omir (Life) is one of the most beautiful and heartfelt songs Dimash has composed and performed so far. In this song, he laid his heart and soul bare. Showing us snippets of what he has experienced so far in his life and asking life not to test him with bitter disappointments. His words are even 'written' on his very skin.  The music video

'Together' By Dimash Qudaibergen

Dimash's song 'Together' is thought-provoking. As usual. And his music video released last week leaves many things to the imagination. It is worth taking note that the music was composed by his younger brother, Mansur.  The MV starts with two young men in spacesuits walking on a seemingly-uninhabitable surface but then they come across a plant which is identified as 'oxygenium'. The care with which they handle it implies it is a very precious thing... maybe capable of generating oxygen? Then the story flows, mixing snapshots of their life in the spaceship with flashbacks of their life with family at home. I won't say more because I've come to realise that different people will see different things. The MV is questioning us all... "If you want to change the world, let's start today." but will we? 

Dimash At The Silk Road International Film Festival

DimashNews.com article https://dimashnews.com/dimash-10-shy-zhibek-zholy-khalyqaralyq-kin/    Dimash performed at the closing of the 10th Silk Road International Film Festival on September 27, 2023   He took part in the closing ceremony of the 10th International Film Festival "Silk Road" held on September 27 in Fuzhou, China.   Dimash appeared on the Red Carpet in a new elegant look and signed the anniversary banner of the festival.   The Silk Road Gala concert took place on a magnificent stage full of deep colors, combining the beauty of the sea and the traditional red hues of China. The honor of opening the evening was given to Kazakh singer Dimash Kudaibergen and Chinese singer Tia Ray, who participated in the "I am a Singer" project six years ago. Tia and Dimash sang "Jasmine", a song that is special to the Chinese people and very symbolic to Fuzhou. This Chinese folk song originated in the 18th century. Over the centuries, it has had many versions

How An Artist Gets A Fandom

 Have you noticed the way Dimash answers the question of how he became so popular (i.e. global fans)? My funny bone gets tickled when Dimash says he doesn't know.   At other occasions, he made comments referring to how lucky he is, mentioning there are others with more talent but he seems to have the good fortune to have his Dears.   Today I decided to find out if other people have discussed the topic of how artists get (or don't get) fandoms and I found an interesting chat in Reddit.   Link to Reddit thread : https://www.reddit.com/r/popheads/comments/f1dw8b/why_do_some_artists_develop_dedicated_fanbases/    Here are two thought-provoking comments.   The artists with dedicated fanbases either has/had a fresh/unique sound in the landscape at their time, or an interesting personality or backstory that many people are interested in or can relate to, which makes them want to root for said artists because they want the artist to succeed.   I think artists with the most dedicated s
