Winner/A Dal 2020

A Dal 2020: ‘Mostantól’ by Gergő Rácz x Reni Orsovai is a massive success in Hungary

Gergő Rácz x Reni Orsovai were the winners of 2020 A Dal competition with Mostantól (From now on). The song has been incredibilly successful in Hungary creating lots of chart records.

The A Dal competition had been previously used to select the Hungarian representative at the Eurovision Song Contest. However, Hungary decided to withdraw from the 2020 Eurovision but the A Dal carried on. It would have been interesting to have Mostantól as a Eurovision song, even though the contest was cancelled anyway in 2020!

Gergő has a Eurovision past! He represented Hungary in 1997 as part of the boyband V.I.P. and their song Miért kell, hogy elmenj? He was also a backing vocalist for Csézy at the 2008 Eurovision. In addition Gergő was one of the composers of What About My Dreams? by Kati Wolf at the 2011 Eurovision.

The group Passed have made an interesting and fun video where they make chill lofi beat just using a harp.

The three members of Passed are Dorottya Nizalowski, Fanni Nizalowski and Levente Szabó. They have taken part twice in the Hungarian A Dal Eurovision national selection shows. Now they are based in Krakow in Poland.

So for fun the challenge of the chill lofi beat was realised by Levi making a beat in Ableton Live using only harp sounds. Fanni plays the harp at the Academy of Music in Krakow. She is studying her masters there right now. Then when the beat and harp sounds were ready, Dori sang vocals over the song Heartless by The Weeknd but with new lyrics by Ray Winston.

Check out unique sound in the video below.
