Anugerah Lagu Indie 2021 (ALI 2021) kicks off with
the songs nomination ahead of the Grand Finals set to take center stage in October this
year. Anugerah Lagu Indie aims to provide a platform to recognise independent (indie)
songwriters, lyricists, musicians and singers in the Malaysian music industry for their
efforts and most importantly, their music.
Following the tremendous success of #ALI2020 and the reception received from the
Malaysian Independent Music Community in 2020, ALI is back for the second year. The
second stage of the song’s nomination begins today until 31st March 2021.
“ALI2021 will be bigger and better than last year. So come join us and nominate your
favourite songs,” said Loy Ekzan, Vice President of Operations & Growth of Rakita.
The nomination is open to all Malaysian indie songwriters, lyricists, musicians and
singers. In order to qualify, the nominated songs must be produced within 14 August
2020 to 13 August 2021 timeframe, and free from the publishing bond with any
recording companies.
50 best songs will be shortlisted from each nomination stage to gather the Top 200.
Then, 30 best out of the 200 will be competing in the Semifinals to be held in
September, which will be broadcasted live on Anugerah Lagu Indie’s YouTube channel.
12 songs out of the 30 songs will be performing live at the Anugerah Lagu Indie Grand
Final in October on the same platform. ALI2021 is a collaborative work between
Hashtag Media, Kamar Seni Studio, Angkasa, and Rakita.
