Dove-i have managed to push genre barriers as far as they’ll go. Thomas Verovski and Bastide Donny are the masterminds behind Dove-i, and their combined music industry experience has allowed them to craft a unique and infectious sound. Speaking about their influences and route into music, Thomas shares: ”I come from a jazz and classical background as a pianist, with a speciality at the musician Institute in Los Angeles. And I’ve mostly worked on soundtracks of beautiful documentaries for France Télévision and Arte among others.”
Bastide Donny tells us: “I was working on music productions in my home studio and we were spotted by Luc Besson, who is one of the few filmmakers in France who is willing to give work opportunities to young people who have not yet done much. And it was a good fit, One thing leading to another, he offered us the opportunity to produce the score of a second feature-film, a third film, etc.”
Dove-i’s latest offering comes in the form of new single “Metamorphosis.” Featuring vocalist Fifi Rong, the track is an irresistible release that will be sure to leave an impression. With a vibrant and edgy instrumental, Rong’s vocals land perfectly on top, working hand in glove with well-penned lyrics. “Metamorphosis” has been taken from their upcoming album “It’s Pop Fiction.”
Speaking about the album, they say: “This album was born during the first lockdown in France. In this very special period when the world was at full stop, this opus is in a way the original soundtrack of a movie that nobody would have imagined.
As an act of resilience through art, the songs address deep questions, anchored in the reality of this new decade : inner metamorphosis, artistic questioning, love renewal, identity at the time of the Black Lives Matter movement, richness of the differences, the Earth that we leave to the future generations…So many fundamental themes set in motion through music in a resolutely cinematographic spirit by the Dove-i collective with the collaboration of talents from all over the world.”
Dove-i are destined for the top.
