A mellifluous weave of heartfelt vocals and dreamy sound design, the newest single ‘Nemesis’ by the talented artist Robert Rene creates an immersive and magical soundscape that takes listeners on a soulful musical journey. The single is a part of the artist’s first album ‘The Trilogy’, which comprises a unique variety of music ranging from EDM and pop to moving ballads. Robert’s music is a unique blend of pop and dance infused with good vibes and amazing lyrics. His experience as a long-standing rounded performer shines through in the track, forming a beautiful serenade of acoustic and choral maneuvers. A truly remarkable piece, the song is the first single to be released from his debut album and is available on all digital platforms such as Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon, among others.
DMR: Mr. Robert, first of all, congratulations on the release of ‘Nemesis’ and also on the creation of your debut album ‘The Trilogy’. What are your feelings on having achieved this particular milestone?
Robert Rene: I feel absolutely blessed and shocked at what myself, “All Out Media” and GDK Entertainment Firm (Gerry Dorvil & Kathleen Garcia) have achieved in the past couple of years. If you would have told me 5 years ago I would be making my own music and music videos, I would have never believed you. It’s crazy how putting yourself out there and stepping out of your comfort zone can really shine a light on what you’re supposed to be doing in life. I’m extremely grateful and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes me.
DMR: What is the origin story of ‘Nemesis’? Is there something/someone that inspired it and when were you struck with the idea to conceptualize it into a song?
Robert Rene: When we were writing the song, we wanted to create a song that had a perspective that everyone could relate to one way or another, and one that no one really writes about. Everyone writes about love and break up, but what about everything in between? It’s basically about being portrayed as the bad guy when you’re really just trying to help and better the person, whether it is your significant other, friend, family member etc. So a lot of those feelings I had came from those experiences.
DMR: The song has an extremely easy-going, entertaining, and optimistic vibe to it. What did you want audiences to take back from your music?
Robert Rene: I wanted to have the audience connect with the lyrics and put people in their “feels.” Like I said earlier, I really wanted the lyrics to resonate with people and allow them to put themselves in a scenario where they might have been the “Nemesis” or treated someone like they were.
DMR: Can you tell us about the inspiration behind ‘The Trilogy’ and what can music-lovers expect from your debut album?
Robert Rene: They can expect a diverse range of music styles, scenarios and character representations. I tried to put myself in the shoes of different characters/personalities that I’ve experienced over the years and write coming from their perspective. So, audiences could expect to hear songs that dive into scenarios that I’ve only witnessed and not necessarily been in. I find it fun to put myself in a character unlike myself and see what we can come up with. I do the same thing with the characters in my music videos.
DMR: A trained singer, dancer, and choreographer who has performed in various musicals in Los Angeles and the Orange County area, what is the greatest difference between performing before a live audience and behind the camera?
Robert Rene: I’ve performed all my life in front of an audience as an ensemble member or a background dancer, blending into the lights, scenery and other bodies on stage, so I felt more hidden, safe and not as exposed. But being a frontman is the exact opposite, all eyes are on you and I really have to be more aware of how I look, what I do, say etc. Pulling myself from the back and pushing to the front was a challenging and vulnerable task, mentally. This applies to cameras as well. But shockingly, once I put myself in front of the camera or at the front of the stage, everything came naturally to me and it felt like I was supposed to be there.
DMR: You have worked with Disney Entertainment both as a performer and a choreographer. Can you tell us a bit about your experience there and what you loved the most about working with them?
Robert Rene: Disney was always great to me, I was blessed to do so many parades, stage shows and even had the opportunity to create and choreograph for the resort. They made me into the performer I am today, taught me the concept of always being “full out,” being prepared and not burning bridges. I learned all my performing abilities and realized my love for performing while I was at Disney. They were a huge stepping stone to getting me where I am today.
DMR: Being a professor of dance for various colleges in the Orange County area, what is the first thing that you inspire in the future performers training under you?
Robert Rene: I try to inspire the same qualities that my Disney and dance career taught me. Be on time, be prepared, don’t burn bridges and always be full out! I push them to start “performing” and not just executing movement and technique. There’s a difference between a “dancer” and a “performer,” anyone can show movement with great technique, but not everyone can connect and perform to the audience. So, I inspire them to perform/entertain and not just dance.
DMR: What is the most rewarding aspect of teaching dance and why?
Robert Rene: Having the ability to give students the opportunity to perform for the first time or give them an outlet to express themselves and find a love for dance they didn’t know they had, is so rewarding and it is definitely why I do what I do.
DMR: Having been in the industry for quite some time, do you have any pet peeves about it?
Robert Rene: I honestly just don’t like people who aren’t nice and create environments that are stressful and not fun for no reason. People who create toxic environments for something that’s supposed to be fun and enjoyable, is a huge pet peeve of mine, they got to go! I also don’t like how “sex” or raunchy imagery and lyrics is what sells in the industry.
DMR: Can you give our readers a sneak peek into the next release that we might be expecting from you?
Robert Rene: Be prepared to dance more and see a different side of my personality compared to what you’ve already seen. That’s all I can say!
DMR: Looking back, is there anything that you wish you had done differently when it comes to your career?
Robert Rene: I don’t regret any decisions I’ve made up to this point, because those decisions have brought me to where I am today. So I wouldn’t necessarily change or do anything differently, but I do wish I had the confidence and drive I have now, back then. Just remember that you can reinvent yourself and find your passion at any age.
DMR:As a veteran in the industry, what would be your advice to aspiring performers looking for their first major break in the industry?
Robert Rene: Sometimes breaks don’t come early, so be patient and trust that things will happen when they are supposed to. Also, always put out stuff that feels right and shows “you” authentically. Audiences know when an artist is not being their true self, so make sure you’re trying to be “you” and not someone you’re not. Also, don’t burn bridges!
