We recently connected with Dimitris Nezis and have shared our conversation below.
Dimitris , looking forward to hearing all of your stories today. We’d love to hear about when you first realized that you wanted to pursue a creative path professionally.
Since I was a little kid the only thing I wanted to be when I grew up was a singer. Even though lots of people around me tried to dissuade me from doing it, because it is a difficult and demanding industry, maybe even dark and deceiving at times, whatever I tried to study, except for music, I gave up and I always had in mind nothing but my artistic vision, about my future.
Dimitris , before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Around 17 I started studying music and at 21 I started writing my first songs which I released independently a few years later. No one helped me, because I didn’t have the proper acquaintances, but my desire was so great that I discovered all the ways to move forward by myself. In 14 years, I have been a singer, lyricist, producer, actor, radio producer and in the last 3 years I also founded “Pulse Music Greece”, an independent record label, in order to selflessly support those fellow artists who want to release their songs officially, but cannot afford it. Apart from my music and my strong artistic temperament, I believe my morals and personality is something that sets me apart from the crowd and that I’m sure my fans are proud of. Whatever I do, I do it with passion, vigor and purity. and so I will continue ,not only for all of the supporters, but mostly for my soul. I have always liked to do what I would like others to do to me in life. It takes lots of strength and wisdom!
For you, what’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative?
I can’t put into words the feeling of being applauded. It’s something really magical, spectacular and deeply fills you up .They say you may hate money, but no one has hated to be glorious . It is beautiful that so many people recognize you and express you their love. Besides, it is in human nature to seek for love and acceptance. maybe that’s why I enjoy keenly , the love and applause of people, something that I wouldn’t change for anything in the world!
What can society do to ensure an environment that’s helpful to artists and creatives?
Extra ways need to be found to support independent artists as well and not only those who somehow managed to penetrate into the music industry, sign a contract and become celebrities. There are so many talents out there that need recognition. Without art the world would simply be black and white…art gives life! Gives colour and meaning to each day! Society and specialized music organizations or foundations must also provide other free resources so that independent artists can do what they love most and also make a living from it.
