Closing off April in style with a BIG Maltese Music Monday!

Apr 26 2021 Share

Mondays aren’t really Mondays without our weekly dose of fresh new Maltese music and what a set of banging’ tracks do we have this week! From a governmental collaboration with two of the island’s biggest artists to the discovery of Malta’s latest young star, this multi-genre list of local music is sure to interest you in some form or other!

Malta’s very own Ira Losco and Matthew James Borg have collaborated with the Maltese Government to bring us a new song called ‘Tbissem.’ Centred around finding courage during the pandemic, the talent and harmony these two artists bring serves as a source of inspiration and courage for an entire nation.

We would like to introduce you to the young, but immensely talented Benjamin Magro, whose creation was shortlisted in an international Songwriting competition across all 4 categories. His song ‘Talk’ was shortlisted on Song Academy and Benjamin is making immense strides at the age of just 9!

Dizzy Goku has collaborated with local DJ Siconix to bring this relaxing but introspective hip-hop track. Dizzy brings in his philosophical verse which, accompanied by Siconix’s iconic sound, creates music one can both relax or jam to.

Daniel Sant has returned with a new song and despite it being called ‘Intruder’, we are genuinely enthusiastic to feature his fresh track. Daniel’s hypnotic voice and crisp product are the ideal way of bringing in listeners into his musical universe.

KAOS is an immensely well-brought together song by local rock n’ roller Kersten Graham. Expressing his frustration with society’s seeming inability to communicate clearly and peacefully. KAOS is a genuine head banger we’ll be turning the volume up to whenever it comes on.

A 34-year-old Egyptian man has been taken to court after being accused for aiding a number of people to illegally enter Malta. The case occurred on the 19th of February 2021, when authorities were informed that a group of people who were most likely immigrants were in the Wied iz-Zurrieq and Ghar Lapsi areas. Police convening on the spot found 8 men.

Investigations revealed that the immigrants had entered Malta by use of a speed boat from Libya, which was later found abandoned days later. The aforementioned Egyptian man was one of the eight men who also drove the speed boat towards Malta. He is currently arrested and facing charges. He has plead not guilty but was not given bail.

Anti-COVID pill by Pfizer could be available this year

Anti-COVID pill by Pfizer could be available this year
Apr 26 2021 Share

Pfizer is currently testing a pill which works against the COVID-19 virus, and should the trials happening in US and Belgium prove successful, the pill could be ready for use this very year. So far, only vaccines and health restrictions have provided defence against COVID-19,  but this pill could potentially make lockdowns obsolete.

The pill could potentially help help severe illnesses in people in whom vaccines cannot function as effectively. It could also provide a second line of defence should a new variant immune to various medicines emerges. Professor Kevin Blyth, a scientist from the University of Glasgow stated that ‘it would be a huge step forward if antiviral drugs work… Normal services can function and you don’t have to have lockdown.’

Pixar’s Soul wins Oscar for Best Animated Film

Pixar’s Soul wins Oscar for Best Animated Film
Apr 26 2021 Share

Pixar has constantly proven to be a master at story-telling and beautifully animated masterpieces. Its most recent release ‘Soul’ has in fact been awarded an Oscar for Best Animated Film. Beating Onward (also by Pixar), Wolfwalkers, Over the Moon, and A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Armageddon, the film is an existential journey through the afterlife as aspiring jazz artist Joe Gardner tries to make his way back to the world of the living.

‘Soul’ taps into what makes Pixar unique – it’s creative concepts, its emotional and tear-jerking storytelling and, last but not least, its beautifully animated world-building. Tackling deep questions about the meaning of life and death whilst also being a kids film, this particular Pixar film also includes one of the best soundtracks in an animated film – especially for lovers of jazz!
