Reading the article " More Than Singer: Why World Needs Dimash Now More Than Ever " from The Astana Times, I find it a deeply reflective perspective on Dimash's role as an artist. The writer Aida Haidar acknowledges Dimash's extraordinary vocal range and talent but highlights how his music is more than mere entertainment. Aida emphasizes his emotional depth and the power of his performances, which go beyond just songs—they become experiences that resonate with listeners on a profound, personal level. Aida Haidar also touches on Dimash's ability to unite people globally, fostering a sense of togetherness through his music and his humble, authentic persona. The article suggests that Dimash's influence and the messages in his songs, such as the call for peace and unity in "The Story of One Sky," are especially important in the current world, which faces challenges like war, division, and tragedy. In times like these, artists like Dimash are more than j...

 Ah yes, the question that keeps getting asked.   Every time I ask this question in the International Fan Club, I get different answers. I myself keep changing my mind. I suppose it's a personal thing.  So today I thought of asking ChatGPT this. And this is what the AI said: Number One : Love Is Like A Dream - a beautiful and emotional ballad that resonates with many fans Number Two : Olimpico (aka Ogni Pietra) - powerful and dramatic  Number Three : Sinful Passion - noted for its technical difficulty and Dimash's incredible vocal range Number Four : Love of Tired Swans - it was the most viewed song on Russia 1 YouTube Channel in 2018, won an award for best song in the same year and praiseworthy for the composition and performance  Number Five : Stranger - a fan favourite known for its haunting melody and lyrics.  Number Six : When I've Got You - a newer song that gained significant popularity  Personally, I'd add ' SOS D'un Terrien Un...

 Dimash's latest single 'Love's Not Over Yet' will be released early March.  I am so looking forward to it.  A preview is available on Apple Music. Apple Music Preview

 Dimash is one of the most photogenic people I've ever seen.  It seems he looks good no matter what angle he is photographed.  He claims it's all due to makeup but well, he has been seen without makeup and still looks absolutely gorgeous. Since he flits about from country to country and his photos are in multiple platforms, I am trying to compile a page of links to the galleries on DimashNews and in Weibo, where he has two 'Dimash Studios', old and new .  Some of the galleries on DimashNews can only be found on the Russian version of the site. Well, here is the link to my page of links... it's not complete as there are so many links.  It's a start. https://dimashdq.blogspot.com/p/dimash-qudaibergens-galleries-of-photos.html  

 'Rizamyn Tagdyrga' will be released on music platforms on November 20, 2024.  Such a beautiful lyrical song Pre-save link https://dimash.lnk.to/Rizamyn

 In 2017, I stumbled across Dimash and got swept away but wasn't quite sure why I liked this skinny beanpole (which he was, in 2017).  I wasn't quite in the habit of dissecting my tastes, preferences etc. But over the years, thanks largely to comments by dears and analyses by musicians & reactors, I got to understand why. I like the scintillating layers in Dimash's music (just as I like the layers in Shakespeare's writing). He uses thin fragile-looking layers to create a powerful whole, a piece of music that flows into my heart, mind, soul and I become speechless, trying to catch hold of what I am experiencing.  I like the tiny almost imperceptible garnishes and flourishes he decorates his art with... they make me go 'What? What?? What was that??' I like the way he uses dark to show light and brightness to focus attention on something melancholy.  I like the way his art makes me think and wonder... like peeling an onion of unending layers. He weaves thoughts...

 When I first learned about Dimash Kudaibergen aka Dimash Qudaibergen, I tried looking for information about him on the Internet.  This was in 2017 and I didn't know that most of the information about him was either in Kazakh, Russian or Mandarin.  Very little was in English. So I thought and thought... and said to myself where would I find information about a young artist?  The answer was obvious... fan groups!  So off I went into Facebook... I didn't know how to use Instagram then and I didn't think Twitter would be much help. And that is how I found Dimash Kudaibergen International Fan Club .  Due to changes in the Kazakh alphabet (changing from Cyrillic to Latin), Dimash's name was now spelled Qudaibergen but the fan group has not changed the spelling as of this post as they felt a deep attachment to the history behind the K. From a group of 2000+ fans, it has now grown to almost 69,000 members... fans of the incredible vocal talents of a young Kazakh a...

 When I was preparing to go for Dimash's Kuala Lumpur concert, I realised I needed to be able to sing along with him.  But I couldn't memorise all the lyrics.  I thought of printing these lyrics out as a proper concert song lyrics booklet.  But time got away from me and I couldn't do this... which turned out to be a blessing because I wouldn't have been able to read the booklet.  It was too dark most times and it would have been too awkward to use a phone as a light.  At said concert, I had to hold the H letter of a DIMASH word lights.  LUCKILY I uploaded the song booklet up on Anyflip so I could access it anywhere, anytime, anyhow.  Since then I have created two different versions of this song booklet and am right now doing a third one.  Well, it keeps me out of mischief.

Astana saw an amazing weekend with concerts from Friday to Sunday ... Dimash on Friday and Saturday nights and Olzhas Qurmanbek's 'Magic of Qobyz' on Sunday night.  My friends who went were unable to say much... except that they had the time of their lives... they were the best concerts ever... and Dimash was superb onstage (and his second concert offered different marvels)... and I felt so awful because I couldn't go. AUGHHH Thank heavens for gorgeous photos from DimashNews and Dimash Studio.  I can't wait for the official concert video to be released.  And of course the new song 'Fire' that he premiered on the 13 September 2024 (first Astana concert).

 'Red Moon Rules' by Dimash and Huang Xiaoyun is a vocal tapestry of beauty!  I actually forgot to breathe while watching the two of them weave their magic.  Oh wow... Information from DimashNews article For the Dragon TV program 'Our Song', Dimash chose to duet with young Chinese pop singer and actress Huang Xiaoyun who is known for her vocals and wide range.  'Red Moon Rules' is the soundtrack to the web anime series 'Since The Red Moon Rose'. The adaptation of Heishan Laogui's novel tells the story of the strange appearance of a red moon in the sky, marking events that led to the death of many people. To combat this destructive force, a special team of people who can control spiritual energy is formed to save the world.

 In the years since I have become a fan of Dimash Qudaibergen, I have read endless streams of words about him. Some were rhapsodies, some sound like technical vocal manuals and others sound like typical teenager gushings. I prefer balanced descriptions and I have come across some pretty good posts or articles about him.  Here are six. Malaysian news article : Kazakh Singer's Hauntingly Beautiful Gig   Bel Canto Vocal School spoke about the phenomenon of Dimash .  Elizabeth Khan called Dimash a Kazakh prodigy . Loredana Michelis is a psychologist and she talked about the Dimash Effect . Eris says Dimash has spoiled every other song for her.

 How does a Dimash dear prepare for a concert?  Well, I'm sure every fan is different but this is generally what I see happening. When A Concert Is Announced A dear will start chatting in the chats and in groups, trying to find out who is organising the preparty and where the concertgoers' WhatsApp or Facebook groups are.  This would be either before or after she has booked tickets to the city of the venue and booked hotel rooms.. refundable, of course, so she can change up or join other dears.  Host city fanclubs or groups would be scrambling to pull together a committee to handle preparty and airport meet.   When It's Only A Month Away Having decided upon the perfect Dimash tshirt or sash or button badges or fill-in-the-blanks, a dear will rev up ability to sing the concert songs because everyone knows Dimash will organise singalongs.  She confirms preparty ticket and preparty meet-ups and preparty actions (dears from the same country might sing a so...

 I've been in Dimash's fandom and hence, bouncing around social media in multiple language universes for quite a number of years and I thought I'd seen most everything.  However in the last two years, I've been experiencing the crazy waves of scammers trying anything and everything to get into fangroups, fan accounts, DMs, PMs and even replying to people's comments under artists' posts. It all began rather predictably with scammers trying to get into the group I admin (Dimash Kudaibergen International Fan Club) and trying to sell their tshirts mugs calendars.  The team of mods and admins wasn't really sure whether or not these people actually had items for sale, although some did have spaces on sites such as Creator Spring and RedBubble.  But blocking mods and tricking people with posts they edit afterwards are not the sort of behaviour that gains friends.  It took a few months and tons of banned accounts before we stopped seeing crazy behaviour in the group...

'Angel Love' is a beautiful beautiful song... and the way Dimash sang it, it was as if he was slowly & gently revealing a string of pearls, sphere by iridescent sphere.  At the start of the performance, you could only see his silhouette and his downbent head told you volumes about his thoughts.  Then he started singing ... Sen mağan maxabbat sıyladıñ (You gave me love) Sylladin dunie didaryn (You showed me the beautiful face of the world) And immediately one knew ... oh what a heartbreaking song this would be.  And so it was. In this article by DimashNews, I found out that Dimash himself named the song.  A song about true, pure and tender love.  Just before he sang this song, the hosts mentioned that Dimash was going to sing the song as a tribute to one of his fans (not named) who was terminally ill.  Some say it was Leysan Seitnazarova Лейсан Сейітназарова who passed away at the age of 21 too young but not before she had the chance to meet her fa...
