Dimitri Gollety
Dimitri is from a family of 5 children whose parents play piano in their moments of relaxation (mother on classical pieces and father’s on jazz tunes).
He will hear daily throughout his childhood regular bossa nova and jazz vinyl records of his relatives (especially Antonio Carlos Jobim and Errol Garner).
So from 6 years old, he sat at the piano and with his sole ears learnt to re-play melodies and song themes by memory.
At 15, at decision time for the rest of his education and career, music was deeply rooted in him.
But another very inner desire to found a happy family with children led him to favor a career in engineering, safer to support its future wife and children.
From that time music will be for him a patient and steady companion with which his artist heart can confide through each of his compositions.
For months, years, he will refine and perfect his game, secretly recording his compositions (on compact cassettes, Revox tapes, diskettes, CDs, MP3s). Treasured for over 40 years, each time with hope then the belief they will be shared later when the time will come.
Then as soon as his professional career as an engineer in a large global energy Company was achieved, he decides in 2016 to launch his second career in the music.
Member from 2012 of Société des Auteurs, Compositeurs et Editeurs de Musique (SACEM), he studied 1 year in 2017 a main musical cursus at ATLA (Paris, France – https://atla.fr) with a specialization in Songwriting with John MELDRUM.
Then from 2018 he spent 3 years at Bill Evans Piano Academy (Paris, France – https://www.bill-evans.net/en/) where he studied Composition & 5tet arrangements with Joe MAKHOLM, Piano with Philippe BADEN POWELL de AQUINO, and Harmony with Lilian DERICQ.
==> From 2021 his main ambition is to promote each of his original compositions/musics to established artists, author, musicians, performers and producers looking to diversify and enrich their works/setlist.
They are available under 4 catalogues under his following labels names :
CALL OF SWING Musics (Swing & Jazz vocal)
HEART SOURCED Musics (Bossa Nova & Latin)
DIRECT 2 VIBES Musics (Soul RnB& Funk)
GOLLD SPECIAL Musics (US Pop Rock)
More about HIS MUSIC
His heart balances and dances on bossa nova, but Dimitri is “jazzing » instinctively everything he plays. Whether Funk, RnB, Rock, Pop or Blues, his playing and his musical chords give a more or less jazz colours to each of his creations and arrangements.
He owes his inspiration to very great artists who have made significant contributions to him throughout their productions over the past 30 years. One with which he feels the most intimate is Al Jarreau. It also owes much to George Duke in terms of musical arrangements.
Read moreOf course he gives a high gratitude to Carlos Antonio Jobim whose works inspire many of his compositions in Bossa Nova. But it also owes much to work and production of Donald Faggen who is his main source of inspiration for his Blues & Rock compositions.
More about HIS VOICE
It’s a mystery. A beautiful and sweet mystery.
Initially and until a few years ago, he uses his voice for practical reasons to « dress » his compositions with a melody. His left hand devoted exclusively to play the bass line, and his right to the chords, it remains to him only his voice to express and memorise his melodies.
And not least, there is the childhood memory and the continued presence of a small voice deep in his soul that has the desire to give.
Also lets you express it with its own language. Freed of words, it distils all his emotion.

New ! HEART SOURCED issues its « First prints » 8 HD tracks album
After 16 singles released in 2 years, HEART SOURCED is very happy to issue the 26/09/2024 its first 8 HD tracks album named "First prints ».
Eight Bossa Nova & Latin original themes, performed with Brazilian timeless rhythms, heart-sourced melodies & Instruvocals, superb harmonies, acoustic & vintage sounds.
Meaning of « First prints » album title
As this album is the #1 of a collection of original compositions dedicated to theses wonderful musical blends, this title had to celebrate this « Rendez-vous » and the inevitable musical first prints let in the memory of its listeners.
But title of this album had also to point personal first prints of its Composer, Arranger & performer on the path of his work in this universe specific to Brazilian and latin musics who influenced him from his childhood.
About its tunes
(All tracks composed, arranged & performed by Dimitri Gollety)
1. Do Brazil is a tribute song to the country that created these rhythms & harmonies which fed composer's soul from his childhood and then are gushing out from his heart from decades.
2. Tant d’amour is a nice illustration of love and tenderness Bossanova music is able to share. You will discover in this tune how rich, kind and sensitive instruvocal performances can be.
3. Pains Bania et chocolats is a theme marrying romantic and joyful atmospheres with the smooth jazz colors of a Tenor Sax. With a nice & surprising final shared between Synths, Double Bass and FenderRhodes. Here performed in a full instrumental version, this tune composed at the end of 80’s has unachieved lyrics that could be the subject of a vocal adaptation.
4. Mi amor Bossa. Composed & recorded in 2011, with a high tempo this theme is a tribute, a talk and a dance with one of great Ladies of Music. Jazz colors are so incandescent in this theme, that they has been reused in a swing jazz arrangement with a lower tempo in one song released in CALL OF SWING Musics under the title « Mi amor Jazz ».
5. Réveille moi. Two words that sometimes our heart could whisper to each of us. A tune which includes a wonderful whistling solo section. Nice times guaranteed !!!
6. Mi corazon. This full instrumental theme maries Bossa Nova with jazz colors in a 6tet instrumental arrangement with Alto Sax and Trombone. A mix of romantic and joyful atmospheres revealing feelings that sometimes cohabit in our soul.
7. Don’t forget. Also composed & recorded in 2011, this tune mixing Brazilian samba & bossa colors is a rich illustration of what was issued from Composer’s heart on such nice harmonies.
8. Capim DG, a slow bossanova theme composed & recorded in 2011 has been inspired by the chords progression from Capim (Ao vivo) Djavan's song. To be a tribute to Djavan and his large contribution to Brazilian music the title of this tune kept "Capim" word in it.

New ! CALL OF SWING issues its « First Pulses » 8 HD tracks album
After 16 singles released in 2 years, CALL OF SWING is very happy to announce issue the 28/08/12024 of its first 8 HD tracks album named "First Pulses".
==> full of vocal Jazz and Swing original themes, introducing unique « InstruVocal » performances never heard before in musical industry.
« InstruVocal » ?!
An "instruvocal" is a tune in which melody is instrumentally vocalized with "ghosted lyrics".
Among forms of instruvocals performances "scat" are the most known.
But often they are restricted to solo or improvisation tune sections.
In CALL OF SWING "InstruVocals" recordings, this is the theme with its main sections that is instruvocally performed in real time from composer' soul' language.
Freed of words subjectivity such performances allow singer and his voice to distil and offer to listeners the highest purity of his emotions.
A way for our brains to let all the room to our souls who want to meet on that music.
Ok, but what about « Ghosted lyrics »
It's really a mystery.
Never predefined nor anticipated these pseudo lyrics naturally appear in real time during recording sessions as in live performance conditions, and result from the will of singer' soul to give its best.
Beyond words issued from the song title and sometimes at beginning or end of some sentences, this pseudo lyrics that generally sound english are difficult to immediately be understandable from a cerebral point of view.
So let them talk to your soul !
Meaning of « First Pulses" album title
Pulses are signs of a life presence, and first pulses beginning of its story.
Very often characteristics of these first pulses reveal what are the core and roots of this life.
To celebrate the birth and the 2 first years old of CALL OF SWING Musics, it was important to find a name for the first album that shows what is driving its composer, arranger & performers :
==> The pulses of swing and the warmth of jazz vocal performances.
