After Diamá's first single "La Mossa (The Brush-Off)", Magnifique Music & Entertainment is very proud to announce her second release off her upcoming Album "We're not done".

"Mare" is the only Italian song on the album and a very personal song, as it describes the artist's own love story. It is a sweet and tender ballad about two lovers who are separated by a big distance and how they overcome every obstacle to find their way back to each other.

The ocean that divides them becomes their strongest connection as it contains symbols they both associate memories of each other with. "Mare" is about longing, belonging and trusting one’s own destiny.

Pele Loriano produced and composed the music while Jiameé and Diamá delivered the lyrics to this subtle but powerful music-gem. Pele's signature rock background is completely immerged into the story and manages to translate the message even to those who do not speak Italian.

Diamá's brilliant voice blooms in this track as she captures the essence of "Mare" in its entire spectrum. Melancholic violins and guitars play around a heavy heartbeat and follow it into the depths of an electric guitar, only to get lifted back to the surface by Diamá's inspirational vocal performance.

The song encourages to follow one's heart and to believe in love. There is no stronger message.

The music-video to mare has already been shot and will be released one month after release of the song. It was entirely shot in Switzerland by Serge Wohlgesinger and stars Miss Earth 2012 Lea Sara Wittwer and Swiss soccer player Elias Aguidi. Photography for Mare - Shpend Salihu

Diamá - Mare (Public - Preview)

English: „Would you be mine?“  produced and composed by Silicon Valley based prodigy Jason Grey carries a very dark and mysterious vibe while the lyrics, written by Jiameé and Diamá herself, stand in contrast following a spiritual and enlightened path. Together they manage to transport the message of the song as nothing is what it seems to be in this contemporary electro-pop hybrid. After her first Single “La Mossa (The Brush-Off)”, where we got to hear Diamá’s roots and her delicate Italian ballad “Mare”, she now surprises us with something quite unexpected, showing yet another side of her multifaceted vocal skills. In "Would You Be Mine?", darkness and light compete in an electronic soundscape filled with gritty beats and uplifting synthesizers that illuminate the track. Jason Grey’s musical craftsmanship is simply impeccable as he delivers an almost architecturally structured track where every element is strategically placed for the buildup. Jiameé and Diamá play around with the lyrics to intentionally mislead the listeners leaving room for interpretation only to a certain point. The song is about that one thing that keeps you focused, motivated or inspired - One’s source of hope or strength. “Would you be mine?”  is Diamá’s testimony to what has always kept her believing.

German: “Would you be mine?”, produziert und komponiert von dem in Silicon Valley stationierten Wunderkind Jason Grey, trägt eine sehr dunkle und mysteriöse Atmosphäre mit sich, während der Text, von Jiameé und Diamá selbst geschrieben, im Kontrast einer eher spirituellen und erleuchtenden Stimmung folgt. Zusammen übermitteln sie die Nachricht des Liedes, in dem nichts so ist wie es scheint. Nach ihrer ersten Single „La Mossa (The Brush-Off)“, bei der wir Diamá’s Wurzeln spüren durften und nach der sanften italienischen Ballade „Mare“, überrascht sie uns mit etwas ziemlich unerwarteten und zeigt uns eine weitere Seite ihrer facettenreichen Stimmkünste. In „Would you be mine?“  stellen sich Dunkelheit und Licht gegenüber und kämpfen vor einer elektronischen Musikkulisse, die von mutigen Beats und lebhaften Synthesizern erhellt wird. Jason Grey’s  musikalisches Handwerk ist einfach makellos. Er liefert ein fast architektonisch strukturiertes Musikwerk, in dem jedes Element strategisch platziert wurde um den Aufbau zu unterstreichen. Jiameé und Diamá spielen mit dem Text um dem Zuhörer absichtlich in eine falsche Richtung zu führen, wobei sie ihm nur bis zu einem bestimmten Punkt Freiheit zur Interpretation lassen. Das Lied zielt auf die eine bestimmte Sache die uns fokussiert, motiviert und inspiriert - Eines jeden Jungbrunnen für Hoffnung und Kraft. „Would you be mine?“ ist Diamá’s Bezeugung zu dem Mittel welches sie an ihren Glauben festhalten lässt.

Would you be mine?

ENGLISH: After a long wait Diamá (aka Claudia D'Addio) finally returns to the spotlight with her first official Single „La Mossa“ off her upcoming debut album "We're not done". Back in 2005 she participated on the Swiss hit tv-show MusicStar (Switzerland’s equivalent of shows like American Idol) and in 2006 in Athens as part of Ralph Siegel's Eurovision Song Contest project "Six4One", where she performed alongside artists like Andreas Lundsted, lead singer of the legendary Swedish Dance-Group “Alcazar”. Diamá then took some time off to discover her own voice and what kind of music she would want to do. The result brought her back to her Italian roots. Naples served as canvas for her first album and especially for her first Single "La Mossa (The brush-off)". "La Mossa" was originally invented in the early 70's in Italy. It's a move that women do with their hips to "vindicate" or "brush-off" an unwelcome reaction or an advance by a guy or a group of people. “La Mossa” is divided in two parts, the first is signaled by a swirling sound. There you move your hips in horizontal circles from side to side. The swirling sound ends in an explosion - that's the moment you kick your hips out to one sides. The song's predominant beat remembers "I Bottari", a traditional rhythm from south Italy that involves wine barrels, wooden drums, etc. At the same time guitars play a sweet melody that resonates Naples vivaciousness and its historic dark beauty. Jiameé, co-writer of the song, drops a few shouts on it, where Diamá, next to her brilliant vocal performance also spits a few rhymes in her Neapolitan dialect. With "La Mossa" Diamá delivers a song destined to wake up everyone’s fire and to accompany those upcoming hot days. Time to swirl it! The single cover to "La Mossa (The brush-off)" was shot by Basil Stücheli and is Diamá's omage to one of her biggest Idols - Sophia Loren. "La Mossa (The brush-off), will be going for adds next tuesday, and official released as downlode in the next weeks.

ITALIANO: Dopo un lungo periodo d'attesa Diamá ritorna con il suo primo singolo "La Mossa", tratto dall’album inedito "We're not done" che debutterà nei prossimi mesi. Nel 2005 Diamá partecipa al programma televisivo “MusicStar”, equivalente allo show italiano “Amici” o alla versione americana “American Idol”. L’anno seguente partecipa per la Svizzera come membro del gruppo “Six4One” all’Eurovision Song Contest ad Atene, un progetto del celebre compositore tedesco Ralph Siegel, che tra altri cinquecantanti include anche Andreas Lundstedt, cantante del leggendario gruppo svedese “Alcazar”. Dopo l’Eurovisione, Diamá si prende tempo per scoprirsi come artista ecapire quale sia la musica che la ispira. La sua ricerca la riporta alle sue origini italiane. Napoli diventa la sua fonte d’ispirazione, specialmente per il suo primo singolo “La Mossa (The brush-off). “La Mossa”, il gesto, fu inventato agli inizi degli anni 70a. Un gesto usato soprattutto dalle donne, che usano i fianchi per vendicare o ignorare avanzi non graditi da un uomo o un gruppo di persone. Il gesto “La Mossa” è diviso in due parti. La prima è segnalata da un suono turbinoso durante il quale si ruotano i fianchi da destra a sinistra. Il suono turbinoso si conclude con una botta esplosiva alla quale i fianchi si spingono rapidamente al lato opposto. Itamburi predominanti nel brano di Diamá ricordano “I Bottari”, un ritmo folcloristico dell'Italia meridionale che proviene dal suono delle botte di vino e bastoncini di legno, usate come tamburi e bacchette. Le chitarre nel brano suonano una dolce melodia melanconica che ricorda la vivacità di Napoli e la sua oscura bellezza. Il brano campiona un "Shout" napoletano di Jiameé, che ha scritto il testo con la cantante, mentre Diamá, oltre alla sua performance vocale, lancia delle rime in dialetto napoletano durante la "bridge" della canzone. Con “La Mossa (The brush-off)” Diamá ci regalaun brano destinato a risvegliare ogni fuoco e per accompagnare le calde temperature di quest’estate. Turbiniamo… ! La foto del cover del singolo è stata scattata da Basil Stücheli, ed è un omaggio ad uno degli idoli di Diamá – Sophia Loren. „La Mossa (The brush-off)“ sarà inviata alle radio (going for adds) prossimo Martedi, e nei download-stores principali nelle prossime settimane.

GERMAN: Nach einer längeren Wartezeit, kehrt Diamá (aka Claudia D'Addio) mit Ihrer ersten offiziellen Single "La Mossa (The brush-off)“, aus ihrem kommenden Album "We're not done" zurück. 2005 wurde Sie durch die Hit-Show MusicStar (Schweizer Version von Shows wie DSDS oder American Idol) bekannt und trat danach in Athen als Teil der Gruppe "Six4One“, Ralph Siegel's 2006 Eurovision Song Contest Projekt für die Schweiz auf. Dort teilte sie die Bühne mit 5 weiteren Sängern. Darunter auch Andreas Lundstedt der legendären, Schwedischen Dance-Combo „Alcazar“. Diamá nahm sich danach Zeit um rauszufinden wer sie als Künstler ist und was für Music sie machen möchte. Das Resultat widerspiegelt sich in Ihrer ersten offiziellen Single sowie in Etappen auf den andern Songs ihres Debüt-Ablum. "La Mossa" wurde ursprünglich anfangs 70er Jahre in Italien erfunden und ist eine Bewegung auf welche vor allem Frauen zurückgreifen um eine nicht erwünschte Avance/Reaktion eines Mannes oder einer Gruppe zu trotzen oder rächen. „La Mossa“ wir im Lied von einem wirbelnden Ton signalisiert. Dabei kreist man die Hüften in horizontalen Kreisen von Links nach Rechts. Der wirbelnde Sound endet in einer Explosion – Dies ist der Moment in dem man die Hüfte auf eine der Seiten rausschlägt. Der dominante Beat des Liedes erinnert an "i Bottari", ein traditioneller Rhythmus aus dem Süden Italiens, der mit Weinfässer und hölzernen Trommelschlägern erzeugt wird. Die Gitarren spielen eine geschmeidige Melodie, welche an die Lebhaftigkeit Neapels und dessen düstere Schönheit erinnert. Jiameé, co-writer des Songs, lässt darauf ein paar „Shouts“ fallen und in der Bridge speit Diamá zusätzlich zu Ihrer brillanten Stimmperformance ein paar Rhymes auf Ihren neapolitanischen Dialekt. Mit "La Mossa" liefert Diamá einen Track der für den Sommer prädestiniert ist und jedes Feuer entflammen wird. Zeit zu wirbeln! Das Cover zur Single "La Mossa (The brush-off)" wurde von Basil Stücheli fotografiert und ist Diamá's omage an Sophia Loren, einer ihrer grössten Vorbilder Sophia Loren. "La Mossa (The brush-off)" wird am kommenden Dienstag (going for adds) an die Radios versendet und kurz darauf in allen Download-Stores verfügbar sein.

La Mossa (The brush-off) Preview

Diamá (aka Claudia D’Addio) is an exceptional talent and unafraid to swim against the flow. This might be the best way to describe this Italian, power-voiced singer. Since her debut on a Swiss TV talent-show, conceptually similar to American Idol, she has emerged as one of the most charismatic Swiss personalities.

She has already proven her vocal-skills on an international level since she participated as part of the group “Six4One” as Swiss entry for the Eurovision Song Contest 2006 held in Athens (Greece). There she performed alongside “Andreas Lundstedt” of the legendary Dance formation “Alcazar”, Tinka Milinovic a Bosnian Superstar and three other singers form different nationalities. The project was led by renowned German composer/songwriter/producer Ralph Siegel, who is a veteran in the contest. In 2008 she collaborated with “Antonino Spadaccino”, winner of the Italian cult-show “Amici” and delivered a song called “Kick it!” for the compilation “Die besten Fansong (The best Fansongs)” created for the Swiss soccer union by the Swiss newspaper Blick during the 2007 European Soccer Championship held in Switzerland.

Effortlessly but full of energy she manages to perform at big events such as; Live Earth Zurich 2006 held at Hallenstation Zurich or the Pirelli Calendar Night.

It has been quiet for a while around the sultry singer, but she has been anything but idle. She has used the time to work on some side projects with different producers and to work on her first album. Since her performance at the 2006 Christopher Street Day Switzerland, Claudia has quietly become a Swiss style- and queer-icon. This was confirmed when she was booked as main-act for the 2008 Mr. Gay Finale and for the 2008 Swiss Gay Pride main-concert as opening act for international stars such as House-Legend “Ultra Naté” (“Free”), Superstar “Ari Gold” and Ex-Pornstar-Now-Singer “Colton Ford”- In addition together with Tanja La Croix and Donna Tella alias Alf Heller, she delivered the vocals to the official Christopher Street Day Hymn 2008 called “Pink Riot!”.

Her following appearances included the Miss Earth Finale 2009, Mr. Gay Switzerland 2009, DJ K-Skill’s Club-Idol tour and she was a judge at the 2009 Ms. Dragqueen Switzerland finale.

June 2009, Claudia performed at the Europride 2009 Main-Stage and is therefore one of the only Swiss singers to ever perform at a Europride Event. She performed on both nights and announced her new artist name “Diamá”; Friday June 5, 2009 when she performed as part of the “Glitzerhaus” DJ-set, since she is lead singer of their single “8 PM” (8 Pick-up Moves) together with Swiss Drag Queen-par excellence Stella Divine and Lady Mata Hari (1/3 of the DJ-Combo Glitzerhaus). On Saturday, June 6, 2009 she performed as Main act followed by artists such as LA Superstar “Guy B.”, Chris Willis main voice for many David Guetta hits, singer & DJ-ane Billie Ray Martin and Italian Superstar Tommy Vee. In her set she performed two songs (“La Mossa” & “Mare”) off her yet untitled debut-album. As a surprise during her set, New York power-voice-diva “Kelly King” entered the stage singing the first notes of Gloria Gaynor’s “I will survive” turning it into a duet of “Pink Riot!” with Diamá.

2011 marks an historic moment for Diamá. At the 3rd Artist Charity Night (Biggest Swiss HIV Charity Event) held in Zurich Switzerland, she test-drove two new songs “Drivin’ Tru” and “Calling all Angels” from her upcoming album. Only one week later at the Zurich Pride Festival 2011 she performs alongside Houselegend “Robin S.”. Together they performed “You know how to love me”.

After so much work en effort finally her first official album is ready and will be released March 15th, 2015. The three singles "Would you be mine?", "Mare" & “La Mossa (The Brush-Off)” are out now, available on iTunes and other selected digital music stores worldwide!

Diamá is definitely the embodiment of a real diva and still proves that quality is always the first priority when it comes to music.
