Dontella is launching into the electronic music scene with a song and video boasting a easy to understand theme that folks can relate to. The meaning behind the song comesfrom the lockdown-era, where all are plans came to a halt and the world was basically put on pause. “What Do I Do Now?” is a question that the billions of people asked themselves, where normal routine is no longer around. Yet, here we are and for many, things are better than ever.
Immortalizing this sentiment through the channel of a song is a solid concept and we haven’t even dived into what’s happening with the sound and video yet.
Donatella harnesses the power of deep house and pop to bring out a catchy, fresh sound on her first go-around. She sings on the release, with her voice being a critical aspect of the experience. The timbre she possesses is heart-warming, on full display and at max power via “What Do I Do Now?”
The video plays out like a kaleidoscope of culture, many animation forms and elements of surprise intersecting to create a show that’s vivid and mind bending.
If this is just her start, it sends tingles down the spine to think about where she may go from here, Donatella is doing things right from the very first start.
