Speaking exclusively to Bizarre's Jack backstage at Isle Of MTV in Malta on Wednesday, he said: 'I had two dreams for collaborations. One with the indigenous community. We did an album, it was amazing. The other is definitely Coldplay — they have such a good blend of electronic music. 'They have done a lot of songs that have amazing remixes and a lot of anthems.' Admitting time isn't on his side, Alok added: 'They are stopping soon, though, so maybe it would end up as just me and Chris.' Advertisement Also on the bill for Isle Of MTV — an annual free concert in Malta's historic Il-Fosos Square — was Alok's previous collaborator Ella Henderson. The pair teamed up on Under The Sun in 2024, but, due to his globe-trotting schedule, which has seen him play everywhere from Las Vegas to Hong Kong, Alok hadn't previously met the singer in person. Alok explained: 'Sometimes people just meet and go into the studio, but it's been a while since I went into the studio with those international features. 'After the pandemic, everyone is really working on video calls. The industry is so tough for all of us. Advertisement 'The biggest challenge is how we are going to meet. Coldplay frontman Chris Martin stops show in Sydney to save young boy in heartwarming 'For example, even Kylie . . . I have not yet met her in person but that's OK. At least we could release our song, Last Night I Dreamt I Fell In Love. 'We could do phone calls, but because of my agenda I would rather do it online than have to leave my family to go somewhere.' Going all out for his headline set in Malta, which will be broadcast on MTV and streamed on Pluto TV from September 13, Alok was joined by more than 40 dancers, smoke cannons and more pyrotechnics than you'd see at Ibiza's superclubs.

'It also depends if it is in the day or night-time, or if I am going to have lasers or lighting. 'Usually I know 25 per cent of what I am going to perform. The rest? I try to feel it.' And just like many of the music lovers at the bash who were well lubricated — including Geordie Shore's Nathan Henry — Alok says he isn't afraid to crack open a bottle on stage.

Doing long sets, it's great to drink as you play.' And that, Alok, is probably why you woke up after the show with a clearer head than us fans. 6 DJ Alok has worked with Kylie Minogue and Ellie Goulding Credit: AFP He's the Man MANESKIN frontman Damiano David wowed Isle Of MTV with a ridiculously high-energy set, proving beyond doubt he can go it alone without his Eurovision band.

The whole process was a lot of me trying different things.

Ella, whose new country-tinged single Me & You is out now, said: 'I've been very excited to do this style of music. 'It's about me finding love and finding my fiancé and him putting a ring on it.' Laughing, the self-deprecating star added: 'I don't know why, but he did – probably the biggest mistake of his life! Advertisement 'I have been unlucky in love but this is very different.' Miriana is a 'vision in pink' SHE may have fallen short when it came to Eurovision 2025, but one of the biggest cheers of the night came for Malta's home-grown star Miriana Conte.

The singer, 56, kicked off her highly anticipated Tension in Perth, Australia, in February, making her first tour since her 2019 Golden Tour and her biggest since 2011. The star was due to perform Denver's Ball Arena on April 26, but has sadly had to cancel the show due to a clash with the NBA playoffs. Denver Nuggets are expected to host the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 5 at the arena of their tense playoff series. Taking to her Instagram on Thursday, Kylie penned: 'Hi Lovers... 'I'm so sorry that we're now unable to visit Denver on the Tension Tour due to a scheduling conflict with the NBA playoffs. 'I was really looking forward to performing in Colorado for the first time!! 'Sending my best to the Denver Nuggets for their hometown games and I really hope to visit you all soon. Love Kylie x.'

Kylie's tour kicked off after she dropped a brand new pop anthem with Brazilian musician Alok, just in time for Valentine's Day. In celebration of the romantic holiday, the Australian pop icon joined forces with the renowned DJ and producer to release Last Night I Dreamt I Fell In Love. Taking to Instagram to mark the drop, Kylie wore a pink shirt dress paired with a corset that showed off her incredible figure. Playfully dancing to her latest song, she formed a heart shape with her fingers, giving followers a cheeky preview of the track. Speaking about the new track, she said: 'Last Night I Dreamt I Fell In Love – and I really did! 'I woke up one morning with the title and idea for this song … it's amazing to be literally sharing my dreams with you all. 'I had such a fun day in the studio with my fellow writers and now ALOK has worked his magic and I'm so happy to be releasing this track with him. Happy Valentine's Day!' Back in September, Kylie sent fans into a frenzy as she announced a world tour and her upcoming 17th studio album Tension II. The two-time Grammy Award winner unveiled her news with a video of her silhouette surrounded by clouds of smoke as the words Tension Tour 2025 appeared on the screen. Kylie captioned the post with: 'TENSION TOUR. You have no idea how hard it has been to keep all the planning and preparation from you. But it's time and I. CAN'T. WAIT!
