Dina and Artem’s journey as brilliant artists began after accidentally coming across each other through an Instagram ad that Dina had launched. The first part of 2021 became a turning point for both of them. Like many musicians who were not spared by the harsh effects of the pandemic, both were eagerly looking for ways to fulfill their dreams despite all that was happening.
An informal writing session over WhatsApp became a beautiful collaboration that crosses continents and all odds. It felt like a giant blank canvas was being painted as the two worked together to create beautiful musical art. Dina and Artem’s brilliant music sounds fresh and unique. Instead of doing something that has been done before, they push themselves to create a kind of music that penetrates deeper into the human heart and mind.
Their first collaboration, “Call It Love,” has vocal melodies that bring the listener across the musical spectrum. This strong partnership looks promising and will surely reach greater heights and more success in the industry. Dina Layzis is a very expressive musical artist whose heart and mind witness her emotions. Creating music is Dina’s avenue to express her passion and transfer her creative energy fully.
Music has been Dina’s companion ever since she was born. She is a connoisseur of music, having learned and developed her styles and knowledge of the different cultures. The music she creates is the marriage of her deep passion and creativity. Dina has worked and recorded with Oscar, Grammy, and Golden Globe-nominated songwriters and producers such as Jud Friedman.
Artem Tenkeli, another brilliant composer and songwriter, was born in a small polar village. His family had no musicians; however, classical music was respected and played. As a result, music made a significant impact on Artem’s life. He would often feel the emotions and shed tears before he understood them.
“There are feelings and thoughts that cannot be expressed in words,” says the soulful artist. “This is because words can distort the meaning of what is meant. Only music can convey the subtle, hidden movements of the soul, freedom, and delicate emotions. Music allows us to understand and feel that every living creature on the planet is connected. It is the language of our souls.”
He poured out his life into his craft for ten years. From finishing Conservatory to being the soloist of the Philharmonic, working at various theaters in Moscow, performing solo and joint concerts, he underwent years of perfecting his craft and gaining rich experiences. Though he has been playing in concerts, his desire for composing original music has been rekindled. Artem writes for movie performances and is currently creating masterful music with Dina.
The brilliant singer and songwriter Dina Layzis and skillful musician and songwriter Artem Tenkeli create music that is 100% true to their vision of music. As they collaborate to create excellent music, the music connoisseurs are looking forward to releasing their first single in the coming months.Dina and Artem’s music is on Spotify, and more information about them can be found on their Instagram accounts (@dina_layzis and @artem_tenkeli).
