Porto Montenegro Announce Creative Partnership Ft. Dino Merlin

Porto Montenegro embraces the opportunity to host the launch Dino’s new promotional single and video combining their respective global followings to boost the global reach of its welcome message as a leading superyacht marina homeport and residential village based in the Bay of Kotor, Montenegro.

Magaza Sarajevo is a regionally-owned entertainment management and retail company and is the authorised representative of Edin Dervishalidovic, better known as Dino Merlin – Bosnian singer-songwriter and one of the most popular Balkan music artists of all time. His career spans several decades of record-breaking successes and sell-out tours across the former Yugoslavia and far beyond, while his stage name has its roots in 1983 pop-rock band, Merlin, for whom Dino was lead vocalist and frontman, before commencing his solo career.

Dino Merlin represented his country three times in the Eurovision Song Contest and throughout his career, collaborated with internationally acclaimed artists such as Cat Stevens (UK), Mustafa Sandal (Turkey), Lutvi Bošnjak (Tunis), Edo Zanki (Germany), Gani Tamir (Israel) and Kempa Orchestra (Turkey).

The partnership between the two Balkan-based companies is one of shared social and business values, mutual promotional endeavours, continued growth and global reach of both the Porto Montenegro destination and the Magaza label, connecting a regional and global fan base in the name of respectful and honest endeavour, good music, positive vibes and a pursuit of ‘A Life Less Ordinary’ – the lifestyle motto of the Tivat-based residential, marina and lifestyle village.

Production and film crews embark upon busy few weeks of filming across selected locations in the UNESCO-protected Boka Bay, Montenegro, for the release of Dino’s new single and video launch. Crews has also captured footage for Porto Montenegro’s 2021 corporate video, showcasing some of the village’s most iconic locations – the award-winning Porto Montenegro Yacht Club pool and Latitude 42 nightclub, Regent hotel and its newly-acquired superyacht shipyard in Bijela.

The premiere of the highly anticipated single and associated music video on 28th October 2020 in Porto Montenegro was showcased in front of VIP guests, media and influencers, and attended by Porto Montenegro Chairman, His Excellency Mohammed I. Al Shaibani.

Upon premiering his new single in Porto Montenegro this October, Dino Merlin has stated: All of my albums are the end-result of long and hard work, and I strive to collaborate with the top creative professionals and the very best in business. Porto Montenegro has a similar approach to doing things, which is – to create long-lasting results and promote new values that we think similarly about. So, when I speak of Porto Montenegro, I can say without any hesitation that I speak of ‘Us’.

As somebody who values beauty and order both in business and in private, I can testify that Porto Montenegro represents an oasis of both. They are a grandiose project that imagines great things and that has become a beacon of light and a positive precedent on a global level. In life, only sky is the limit and working together with Porto Montenegro opens up new horizons for a brand new ‘Us’.
