Now open for submissions until 14 September 2025, the nationwide competition welcomes both emerging and established DJs eager to challenge themselves, elevate their craft, and showcase their talent on standout stages across the country.
This year’s edition offers an impressive RM128,000 prize pool, with the champion walking away with a RM30,000 cash prize alongside exclusive rewards designed to support and amplify their music journey.
From Submissions to the Mainstage
Last year, the competition drew an overwhelming number of entries, with four finalists making it to the mainstage. In 2025, the stakes rise even higher as contestants battle it out in Swift Nights throughout October, leading to the Semi-Finals in November and culminating in a high-stakes Final Showdown in December.
The winner will be crowned not just as a champion, but as one of Malaysia’s most fearless, boundary-pushing DJs — ready to carve their place in the local and regional music scene.
Backed by Industry Leaders
Supported by DJs Playground, the Swift Talent Quest is more than just a competition. It is a career-defining launchpad, designed to propel bold talents to new heights, with Martell leading the way for those daring enough to soar beyond expectations.
Submissions are now open, and with the spotlight waiting, Malaysia’s next DJ star could be just one bold performance away.
