Music Teacher Reacts: Ikanaide by Dimash 

There is nothing accidental about #Dimash, he knows what he is doing and what he wants to achieve with his voice in a given song. #Dimash absorbs what is useful to him, rejects what is not, adds what is unique to him. What is only His! And this is the key to His uniqueness, to His splendour.

Dimash is the Leonardo de Vinci of music. He's continually experimenting with sound and vocal techniques, he makes a very beautiful monologue at the end of the Almaty concert as to how he sees his place within music. If you want to see a very recent exceptionally good demonstration of his lower register (which has actually become much lower too) then take a look at Omir. It's very different to anything he's done before.

This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard

Dimash is a great master of musical pauses. This is especially audible at stadiums when thousands of people are silent. And here his voice sounds like a beautiful saxophone.

🗣️🎶 He gently places a note on a gossamer thread of breath and it stays suspended, resonating in your mind ..no one like him on the planet 🌎

I am an experienced musical knowkledgeble artist,i would like to point out Dimash has a magic way to acjeve what e wants,yes he wants and it is intentional,he does go beyoond most or any singer can do,i follow him now 7 yrs,i have heard it all from every sphere of the art of music,and do not try to quallify ,for Dimash is bringing new tecniques,styles to the wotls of music artistry,if you go on what y learnedon what we have today we will never understand.Once again he is a master on microphone tecniques,he is beyong what most know he his a master of the instrument of the voive incluiding his,very few vocal coaches can qualify,quantify ,what he real want and achieves,because if they could they could be singing and became famous,everything is exactly what y hear,You have great singers ,but they are all very convencional,even the one that get grammys,which this year sucked ,it was a disaster,,i knoe many top,doctor on music,grammys winnersw and they all agree that Diamsh is unique,on everything he does,he knows what he wants to do most do not know,He is about to finish his doctorate in music,he has many degrees on music,the beauty is that he does whathe wants NOT WHAT YOU WANT,NEVER DEMAND FROM HIM HIS ,OMIR song thanking his fan ,he describes all that,do not ever demand from any singer if y cannot do it yourself,i do not care if y are a coach or not i am 70 yrs old,played all my life,and many nort known musicians and singers are under rarted artist and are better than many that get grammys,it is like a miss

Dimash is an absolute master at skidding right on the edge between just barely a sound and breath. It's unbelievable how much control he has for his voice not to fail as it is so hard to sing that subtle without falling "out" from the tone, so to speak.

Thank you for this reaction. I agree that his lower register is so underated. 🎶💐💜💐🎶🥰🇨🇦

This Ikanaide song is the Chinese Autumn Strong song from the I Am Singer comp in 2017, but sung in Japanese, and apparently is very difficult to get the phonetics correct. But a number of Japanese reactionists have said he got it right. It was performed in studio for the maybe 2022 year Tokyo Jazz Festival as in the previous covid restricted years, I believe. Samaltau was the previous year’s entry. We Dears, love his frequent breathy sounds, and wait with baited breath for the next ones. Dimash sings both within and without the box, and has had to make his own musical culture out of the great mix he has embraced. He has been publicly humiliated on stage by judges as a younger contestant for pursuing his own ideals, but has emerged victorious and very much embraced by his huge international following from 140+ countries, and this should prove his sensible actions and worth as he non-intentionally changes what is acceptable to the public ear. Kazakhstan government has awarded him to be a National Treasure. He has many ethnic songs and cultural dancing in his concerts, and loves his country, his people, and his fans all around the world. In his concerts in foreign countries, he generally tries to sing at least one song in their language, to their delight.

I love it when Dimash does that airy "whisper singing" as you called it! It gives such an amazing effect!

Dimash enters everyone's soul as easily as the sun's rays at dawn.

DIMASH IS SIMPLY EXTRAORDINARY SINGER💯⭐🔥👏👏👏👏

Everything that Dimash does is intentional. Here it is to evoke a certain emotion. It takes lots of control to do that. He is the master of vocal control. That you for your reaction.

Dimash knows exactly what he's doing with his voice and microphone. He is not a simple singer, he is a musician with perfect pitch. Trained in several disciplines including composition. Check out the song Stranger New Wave 2021

Years ago he was asked in an interview if he could have anything in the world what would it be ? It was THAT microphone ! I looked it up.

It is beautiful. Dimash breaks expectations!!!❤

Remember he has a masters in musicology and is studying for his doctorate. So he probably knows exactly what he is doing.

Dimash es fantástico 🌹💐💐🏵️❤️

It was a live stream and it was done in Japanese, native speakers said he did great on his pronunciations.

Excelente reacción y explicación, Dimash es único en el planeta

No. Lol!😂 You're not hearing things but his technique is to have his breath heard regardless of microphone I'm afraid and hope you're able to see him LIVE some day. I hope to. He's the master of all vocalized sound & is changing music forever through his virtuosity. He is masterful at microphone use, breath and volume control and if there's any engineering at play, it's happening in session IRT.

Música Japonesa linda cantada por Dimash em perfeito Japonês! Dimash é Música! Arte e emoção, tudo isso conectado ao coração, por isso quando canta, nos envolve com sua magia e nos transporta para um mundo melhor de amor e alegria! ♥️♥️ Dimash é Simplesmente transcendental! 👏🏻👏🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏿👏🏿👏🎶🎶♥️♥️🇧🇷🇧🇷

Thank you for reacting to my favorite song! I love all the dynamics and nuances here. I love how the song progresses from the tender beginning to the storm towards the ending, and, finally, the amazing humming! Such a genius (to me) musical choice!

This performance was verified to be streamed live in the Tokyo Jazz Festival during the pandemic when in-person concerts weren't possible. Post-production modification of sound would not be possible in this situation. I read somewhere that Lara Fabian also uses the technique of using noteless breath sounds. Dimash has been a huge fan of hers since he was young, and both of them worked closely with composer Igor Krutoy. They performed together along with Aida Garafullina in Ti Amo Cosi: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XaQFfqC3lnU.html

Dimash es lo más maravilloso que ha existido en el mundo de la música ..... hermosisimo

Dimash faz o céu estremecer, saudações do BRASIL 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷❤

The delicacy of voice he is able to bring to this song conveying the emotional fragility of the love in this relationship is astonishing technique.

The silence and the breathing near the end is very intentional. Right after the emotional climax, the silence and breathing spikes the feelings for me and I gasp and catch my breath. And the airiness in the first part is also intended to seem like he is emotionally and intimately whispering in your ear. Delicious. BTW, the song is titled Please Don't Go, composed in Japanese referring to the true story of a very popular singer and actress in China who was shunned and exiled when it was discovered during the war that she was of Japanese descent and was accused of being a spy. The singer in the song is telling her to please not leave. He is lamenting that she will be alone and that breaks his heart. He performed a version of this song in Mandarin on the show The Singer, the show where he performed S.O.S. and catapulted him internationally. When he did this song on The Singer (the Mandarin version is called Autumn Strong), many in the audience knew the song and he had many in tears.

Gracias por su reaccion a Dimash el mejor cantante y vocalista del mundo, la voz mas bella de todos los tiempos.

Димаш единственный и неповторимый 😃☝😍😍😍💕💕💕💓👏👏👏

A study in the use of breath. Just beautiful. Especially when you learn what the song is ABOUT. Vocal crying throughout. He goes in and out of breath in the same phrase.

Gracias por la reacción a Dimash. Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷❤️🇰🇿🌎

This version "Ikanaide" (行かないで) ) is the original, from 1989, composed by Koji Tamaki (famous Japanese singer, born in 1958) with lyrics by Goro Matsui. The version "Autumn Strong" (Late Autumn), sung in Chinese, uses the same song, but has another lyrics (Yaqui Cheung, from 1993) and another theme: It talks about the Japanese actress Yoshiko Yamagushi, very dear to the Chinese, who was deported when they discovered her Japanese origin (his real name was Li Xiang Lan and we're talking about World War II, where Japan was China's enemy) and never returned to China. In the original version, the lyrics are more intimate, sentimental and more recognized worldwide. It means: "Please don't go!".

Dimash alucinante ❤

I remember a comment on a Dimash reaction a few years ago, Even his breath has notes!! 😂❤

Hola. Maravillosa reacción a Dimash. Lo quiero y admiro mucho. Es especial, precioso y único como persona y como artista Gracias! Podrías reaccionar a The story of one sky en vivo concierto Almaty? Cariños desde Argentina

Yes, I enjoyed your reaction to Dimash amazing performance ❤❤❤

Dimash è geniale in tutte le scelte che fa. Amo la sua interpretazione di questa bellissima canzone.

If you want to hear more of his low register, which I love so much, check out El Amor En Ti, Omir, Ti Amo Cosi, Ulisse. Btw, that was a live stream for the Festival.

real genius! Dimash!

Everything you hear from Dimash is entirely intentional, he make all the music choices. He is also his own music producer and as a completely independent artist, he is the boss there is no "they". Dimash often uses breath in his songs. This song was his first song in Japanese and it was streamed to the Tokyo Music Festival during covid ❤

la voz mas bella que emociona todos los sentidos .dimash unico......desde ecuador......i

Thank you for your insights/analysis! You’ll hear much more of Dimash’s silky smooth baritone/bass in his “El Amor en Ti”. It has some surprises, too!

5:45 one of the reactor said: "even when Dimash is breathing, his breath can have a note"

Dimash ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Dimash tiene Master en Composición musical.y ya casi termina el doctorado. Estudiar desde los 5 años. Canta en 12 idiomas pero habla en 7. Y el multiinstrumentista. Los arreglos generalmente los hace él. Es único, talentoso con un don divino. Y todo todo lo que haga es intencional porque es un perfeccionista. Amamos a nuestro Príncipe❤️

To hear Dimash in his beautiful lower register a good choice would be Ti Amo Cosi, where he sings with Lara Fabian and Aida Garafullina at Igor Krutoy's anniversary. Dimash holds Lara in high regard. Enjoy !

Спасибо за реакцию✊Димаш поет красивую японскую песню,которую не сможет петь ни один японец😂 Мы очень очень любим Димаша🥰🎵💃💥💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖

Polo norte 007 Argentina * la bestia celestial y su delicadeza , quien se le puede acercar ? *

wonderful!!!

La musica de Ikanaide fue compuesta e interpretada por Koji Tamaki y Goro Matsui compuso la letra. Es una canción de amor y dolor. Ikanaide significa "No te vayas", "Por favor no te vayas". Goro Matsui dijo que había escuchado a muchos extranjeros cantar Ikanaide en su idioma nativo pero que era la primera vez que escuchaba a un extranjero cantarlo tan bien en japonés. Dimash siempre nos sorprende y nos emociona.

этому профессионалу в пении Димаша больше всего, похоже, понравился микрофон.😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

complementa seu canto, já que tudo que deve ser feito já está construído dentro da sua mente! Some things that make Dimash a different singer are his absolute pitch and the ability to perceive and reproduce microtonalities (which currently reach 32 semitones and which is not a common scale in the West, which uses the well-tempered scale of 7 tones and 5 semitones). He is also a phenomenal composer and arranger, a fact that complements his singing, as everything that needs to be done is already built into his mind!

Si te gustan los tonos bajos de Dimash reacciona a Amanat. Es un relax. Siempre tus reacciones son excelentes. Gracias

I cried a lot of tears when he sang this song in his concert in Malaysia in which I saw him live there but it’s the Chinese version of this. He’s really great.

Thank you for great analysis . Beautiful song and performance . The original song is by Koji Tamaki 1991 . For the next time I recommend " Autumn Strong " - the same song , but the Chinese version , from a Kiev ( Kyiv ) concert 2020 , right before the pandemic . With love from Bulgaria ❤❤❤

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VvrFgAMyAUo.html. Живое исполнение на сольном концерте в Праге. Наслаждайтесь ❤❤❤❤❤

Saludos desde Venezuela muchas gracias profesor por compartir y analizar al maestro Dimash 😍 definitivamente el mejor cantante del mundo 🌎 ❤....este es uno de mis temas preferidos 😊....sería interesante que reaccionaras a Across. Know. Samaltau y la historia de un cielo en el concierto en Astana gracias 😊

Thank you for your reaction! Please react to Dimash "Know Vocalize Arnau tour". You will love it! It's Dimash improvising the whole song (on vocals only) in a concert. He does it differently at different concerts. You will so appreciate his musicality and ability to improvise. Thank you 🙏

Тебе идёт эта рубашка,красавчик!!!!😂😂😂👍👍👍💯💯🔥🔥🔥👏👏👏✌️🌍🇧🇾❤️

Dimash está cantando en japonés una historia real

Thanks for your reaction: for Dimash low register, you should react to Know or Omir Oter, both are gorgeous...

If you do a reaction to his latest Omir which he composed you will get a lot of the deep beautiful voice.

🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️🙏♥️

In concerts Dimash sometimes drops the mic completely singing the high notes completely without mic. And everybody hears him just fine - as a trained opera singer he of course knows how.

Welcome to Dimash's world. It's not the microphone, it's not the headphones, it's Dimash's voice and his unique vocal technique that makes this man the best singer in the world. There are thousands of videos where Dimash sings live, without post production, and his work is flawless. (ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Kmi2cVijdMo.html) By the way, look up the story of this song written by Koji Tamaki, about Yoshiko Yamaguchi.

"That's not acting either" talks beautifully about those squeaky sounds at the end of the phrases

Breathy you mean he can hold it longer .

Nadie como Dimash para trasmitir!

I see in your Dimash playlist that you've already reacted to El amor en ti & Olimpico - those 2 songs alone had lots of his baritone!

❤️❤️❤️❤️🌸

Please take his New song "omir" to hear a song in his lower register. Lovely greets

If you like his lower end of his voice, Samaltau is a great song. And if you chose Ikanaide from his page, there are subs. The version from the Tokyo Jazz Page doesn't have eng subs as it's a Japanese page. And Dimash is singing in nearly perfect Japanese. I am Japanese and can confirm his accent here is probably better than mine. Everything he does is pretty intentional.

If you want to hear his lower register check his song “Love is like a Dream”. You’ll love it.

Hola desde Costa Rica 🇨🇷 Esta canción es maravillosa como es Dimash…lástima que no puso los subtítulos porque entendería la interpretación 😊

💖LYRICS IN BOTH SONGS 🎶 ARE EVERYTHING 💝 Autumn Strong 🇨🇳 & lkanaide 🇯🇵 There’s a historic backstory 🥺China WWII Japan😢💙 This older performance of Dimash in China’s “I’m a singer” competition. He learned Chinese in a week. 🇨🇳 Then he’s learned Japanese and sings the original version for Japan. 🇯🇵 This puts his language count at 13 at the time of this recording 💿 His HONOR is showing again‼️🤗 Dimash’s “Autumn Strong”🇨🇳 “BACKSTORY”👀 with subtitles ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-FXQ58U-Eddg.html Dimash’s “Ikanaide” 🇯🇵 With subtitles ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8mM-bp5PB34.html KOJI TAMAKI - IKANAIDE🇯🇵 ORIGINAL SONG with Subtitles ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2j3ab7cu_30.html I love how he’s blended the🇯🇵&🇨🇳 songs together with the warble in the beginning’s, and the vocalizing “Her” at the ending’s 🥺😥 The song writer 🎼 praised Dimash on his getting the “Ah’s” 🎶 so perfectly to what he intended they should convey in each phase👌🎤 “Well It Is Dimash‼️🤣😂💦” I also watched a Japanese reactor comment that the 🇯🇵 language is usually pronounced wrong with a hard consonant sound of most western speakers. He said that it’s different and should be weaker too get it right. He was so impressed with Dimash getting the enunciation correct❤️🇯🇵 “Well It Is Dimash‼️🤣😂💦” ❤️2U&2ALLU❤️🦌🦌💫🌎🇺🇸

👌😍🥰❤️👍🇨🇦

No filter on his microphone- the air is intentional. To my knowledge, this was live in studio for Tokyo Jazz Festival and the 2nd year they did it this way because of Covid. It was remote for artists and listeners but live production on a schedule so that it still felt like the festival.

If you want lower register, I recommend El Amor En Ti.

This was a live stream. FYI

Please know there are multiple versions of Dimash songs, usually there is a version that offers subtitles and lyrics. They should help you in the interpretation of the song and the overall impression of the song.....be blessed.

🔥

There was no postproduction, perhaps a little bit on the fly, because the content was streamed live to the Japanese Jazz festival. That's the main condition to be able to participate: All live

Then listen to ..El Amor en ti.. ti listen to his lower register.

Gracias por seguir escuchando música de Dimash lee las letras de las canciones que puede cantar en 14 idiomas su rango vocal es un F1 a D8 desde Argentina saludos

Dimash is a tenor, so you're not going to hear a lot of lows unless the song goes into that area. But if you listen to more of his work you would know that he sings a lot of songs that dip pretty low. He has so many songs that you can't possibly react to them all, so why don't you just listen to some in your own time? El amor en ti would be a good choice for classical lows.

Check out El Amor En Ti for his low register thank you

I feel he includes his breath for emotion and to stop accusations of lip syncing

You should also check Dimash and Wu Tong singine Jasmine Flower. Here is the link of the performance from a fancam: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-oZGRTe1JO9o.html

This isn’t you…I really don’t watch, more than once, reactors who keep saying,”it’s coming”. Waiting for Dimash to break out. He doesn’t need to increase volume and break out. Just looking for this is very insincere. They don’t appreciate what an amazing singer Dimash is. If the song calls for it, it will be there.

Хочу предложить для анализа и реакции фанкам с концерта в Ереване. Песня на армянском языке ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-DZjdHGvj1JM.html

No puedes creer que es sin efecto no conoces a Dimash😅😂😂
