Watch: Local DJ Debrii drops club-ready mashup of Malta's Eurovision entry

May 9 2023

Ahead of The Busker’s first official performance at tonight’s Eurovision Song Contest Semi-Final, local DJ Debrii has dropped a club ready mashup of the band’s track ‘Dance (Our Own Party)’ on TikTok.

Incorporating Dav Jr.’s vocals with a certified club banger, which also includes a touch of brass, this edit is just what you to get any Eurovision party started in 2023.

@iamdebrii POV: you’re at the club and someone asks you for #Eurovision music 📈📈📈 #eurovision2023 #maltaeurovision #maltatok @the_busker ♬ Dance (Our Own Party) – The Busker

The Busker will be performing in the second slot of tonight’s Eurovision semi-final, a time which is typically referred to as ‘The Death Slot’ by Eurovision aficionados, for the fact that only four acts have qualified to the competition’s final since 2013.

Despite this, the Maltese people remain fully supportive of their Eurovision representatives for what looks to be a spectacular show for the island’s sweater-wearing stars.

From tonight’s show, 10 of the 15 entries will qualify for Saturday’s Grand Final, with Sweeden’s Loreen and Finland’s Käärijä amongst the frontrunners to win the whole thing.

Who are you rooting for this year?

AI creator suggests sea transportation as traffic solution

May 9 2023

Local AI creator @malta.ai might have just given us the solution to some of our persistent traffic problems: autonomous ferries.

Through AI generated images, the creator reimagined Maltese sea-line localities embracing ferries to get citizens to where they need to go.

This is not so outlandish to think about, having established a route between Malta and Gozo using ferries. But malta.ai is going one step further.

‘Using the latest in AI technology, these ferries can navigate themselves through the waterways, reducing the need for human operators and providing 24/7 service. Plus, they’re eco-friendly and can significantly reduce traffic congestion’ they explained.

This comes as Maltese roads reinvigorate the calls for better transportation due to massive traffic gridlocks in various localities, leading to some students even missing important examinations.

Do you think this would be a viable option to our current transportation issues?
