It’s official! Albania’s Eurovision 2025 act has been chosen, and it’s none other than Shkodra Elektronike! The electronic music project won Festivali i Këngës 63 (FiK63), securing the honor of representing Albania at the 69th Eurovision Song Contest in Basel, Switzerland.
Shkodra Elektronike is an innovative music collective that blends traditional Albanian folk sounds with modern electronic beats, creating a unique and hypnotic sonic experience. Their music pays homage to Albania’s rich cultural heritage, while pushing it into the future with bold, electronic production.
Their winning FiK63 song, which will be Albania’s Eurovision entry (or may be revamped for the contest), promises to bring something fresh and unexpected to the Eurovision stage.
Albania has participated in Eurovision since 2004, often bringing powerful ballads and passionate performances to the competition. Their best result came in 2012, when Rona Nishliu’s “Suus” finished in 5th place.
With Shkodra Elektronike, Albania is taking a bold new approach, stepping away from its usual ballads and into the world of electronic innovation. Could this be the formula for success in 2025?
Fans can expect a potential revamp of their winning FiK63 song, along with an exciting Eurovision staging concept that will bring their electronic-folk fusion to life. With Albania’s history of dramatic and visually striking performances, Shkodra Elektronike’s Eurovision journey is one to watch.
