IGOR KRUTOY SPOKE ABOUT THE NEW SONG "I MISS YOU" - As the author of the music, Igor Krutoy, had commented, it didn’t take long to write the composition: “Inspiration poured over the edge, it seemed to run its fingers along the keys of the piano with invisible threads.” The composer wanted the song to have a successful fate, so he turned to his old colleague for help. “I gave the music for writing the lyrics to Igor Nikolaev, as time and traditions have shown that when the two of us get down to business, we get a hit. And I would very much like this song to become a people’s song and be performed everywhere, even at quiet evening gatherings” Igor Krutoy shared in an interview with DimashNews.

OKAY - 2022
On February 18, 2022, Dimash arrived in St. Petersburg, and immediately began shooting his new music video for a beautiful composition by Igor Krutoy, which was called Okay. The author of the words was the famous Russian composer and singer Igor Nikolaev.
The story of creation and the message of the video was told by the director Alina Veripia.
“When you watch the clip, you will see how deeply Dimash lived each scene. He got so used to the role that we practically didn’t have repeated takes. Our cameraman Dmitriy Vollmer, like the whole team, enjoyed every shot, every look. It was an amazing shoot.”
The collaboration between the great singer Dimash Qudaibergen and the great composer Igor Krutoy has been very extensive, and hopefully will continue to be, in which case this archive page will have updates.
With much love,
