Dianne Elise to unveil latest project
Filipinos first heard Dianne Elise when she revived the Chicago classic "You're the Inspiration." Since then she has come out with more singles including a Chris Cross cover and her own composition. This time she is returning to the music scene to make bigger waves. She just signed with MCA Music, the local arm of the Universal Music Group and the largest recording company worldwide. Dianne is now among the Philippines' most formidable acts, which include Richard Poon, Julianne, Miguel Escueta, Zoo, Pedicab, Chiscosci, Cambio and Side A. She is all set to release her sophomore album this month.
The new album is called Committed and it takes listeners through the roller coaster of love. Promising songs include a string of boy band hits and retro ballads, but the most alluring is the first track, "If You're Not the One." While the Daniel Bedingfield song was too recent to revive for some, Dianne was said to have insisted on doing her own version. The result was the ubiquitous idea to make it the first single off the album.
Award-winning director Milos Curameng took on the challenge of creating the music video for this song. The concept of the shoot had Dianne reaching out to someone that could only be barely seen. For those familiar with the director's works, it would be no surprise that he set the video to a somber tone. But with the song's debatably happy mood, a balance was struck to let the viewers decide how they want to interpret it.
The premiere for the music video "If You're Not the One" is slated to air tonight, October 26, on the Myx Music Channel at 9:00 PM. Be sure to watch as Dianne Elise unveils the next chapter in her musical journey. She shows she is committed to it in more ways than one.
