Once again, Malta’s finest artist continue to highlight how the local music scene is a force to be reckoned with, and this week’s features highlight the island’s prowess in various sub-genres of electronic dance music and hip-hop. If the following artists are not on your radars and in your playlists, you’ve come to the right place.

215’s Eddie Fresco has come out with a heart-breaking banger providing us not only with an emotional tune, but Eddie’s iconic rap sound.

HEARTBREAK blends story and sound in a dark, intriguing and soulful track we cannot help but keeping on repeat.

A DJ & Producer who has been making waves in the past months, Ryan Paul’s latest banger of a release solidifies his rise in the local electronic scene.

With previous support from international DJs like Laidback Luke and Sam Feldt, his latest track is an ode to the weekend drink we so dearly miss and it BANGS.

As if one 215 Collective production was not enough, Caro has also released his new track Murder Me – and it is everything we love about Caro and more. Caro is a rap Hip Hop artist of calibre whose thought provoking lyrics are perfectly married to Caro’s melodic genius.

LEX is back once again with a wavy electronic dance tune reminiscent of the local clubbing scene which he couldn’t wait to release.

Despite the ‘romantic lyric base’ which the artist highlights, the songs brings the energy we all need right now and we’ve got it on repeat.
