We’re excited to bring back

The Melodija Golden Disc Awards
 

 for its third year running — our yearly nod to the albums that helped define Malta’s local music scene.

What started as a one-off idea has quickly turned into a proper tradition: a chance for the community to look back at the past year, celebrate the artists who kept things moving, and give standout releases the recognition they deserve.

This year’s poll highlights albums released in 2025, across ten categories:

​

• ALTERNATIVE

• CLASSICAL

• DUB / SKA / URBAN

• POP / EXPERIMENTAL

• FOLK / FOLK POP

• JAZZ / FUSION / WORLD

• ELECTRONIC (MAINSTREAM)

• ELECTRONIC ( NON MAINSTREAM)

• METAL

• ROCK / PUNK

​

Every album listed was released in 2025, so you’re voting on the music that genuinely soundtracked the year.
