The music video for the song “Casanova 91“, with which Dolce Hera recently performed at Montesong, is available on the artist official Youtube channel.
Recognized as the first professional drummer from Montenegro, but also a musical author and performer who creates music in different languages, she decided to give her last single in Italian a unique visual identity.
Already in the authentic way of presenting this single at Montesong 2025 through Dolce Hera’s art theater performance, “Casanova 91” showed its potential for a conceptually rich visual world. This track in the Italian language, as she states,
“shows a new artistic side, that of a singer-songwriter, but also a willingness to defy the established frameworks of modern pop”.
The rebelliousness of her artistic expression is expressed by the rhythms of her songs, as well as the lyrics with which, as she says,
“she does not try to fit into any popular mainstream context or definition of pop”.

Dolce Hera describes this music video as an extension of the performed performance, that is, as an artistic provocation of the eternal inspiration of “true love” as an idea. Through the artistic performance this experiment comes down to the illusion of thought processes that lead us to the realization that what we were looking for probably was our own reflection in the mirror. A twisted philosophical process into which the artist dives starting from the narration of the chorus, which leads her to the question:
“Is there anyone who deserves to be dedicated these verses, even in our thoughts”?
In the lyrics, that are intentionally written in the masculine gender which culminates in the chorus and bridge, where the male and female perspectives begin to intertwine, lies the central idea of the project:
If love is not an unconscious search for one’s own reflection, the artist wonders, can love then mean an attempt to truly love the differences of another person in relation to ourselves? And if that’s the case and if it’s feasible, maybe it’s again one of our projections in our desire to possess the qualities of the person we admire? In the end, art is there, she reminds, not only to celebrate beauty but also to provoke and make us think about different things by inviting us for a contemplation.
This single represents a continuation of the collaboration with the studio Knowhere2Run – the lyrics was written by Dolce Hera, while she collaborated on the music with her co-authors Marko Ćacić and Todor Tadić, who are the producers of this track.
She especially appreciates the continuous support of the Organization for the Protection of the Rights of Music Authors PAM CG for her music, as this support represents an important driving pulse for the Montenegrin music scene.

Dolce Hera is now, as she says, “for the umpteenth time in the role of director for her music project”, while this music video was realized thanks to the support of Phototrade production and Montenegrin producer Rade Todorović.
According to Dolce Hera, this project is an indicator of the overall growth of her solo musical direction, on which she has been at a feverish gallop since 2023.
“What fulfills me the most is that my music brings me fulfillment, not only the personal one through satisfaction after completing projects, but also those small, everyday ones. I mean that wonderful fulfillment of working on projects with incredible people who share the same love for music and art in general, with whom, thanks to this work, I have constant contact. I think that the dedication of the producer Todorović is absolutely unique and that his contribution to the entire project “Casanova 91″ is especially valuable, considering that the professionalism of his kind is really rare,” says Dolce Hera.
