Malkit Singh takes centre stage on EA FC 25 Soundtrack

Punjabi singer Malkit Singh made history as he took centre stage on the soundtrack for EA FC 25.

His popular single ‘Gur Nalon Ishq Mitha’ has been remixed and named ‘DESI TRILL’, featuring DJ LYAN, Chip and YUNG SAMMY.

This marks a massive moment for the Punjabi community, with this being the first time a Punjabi singer has been featured on the video game franchise’s soundtrack.

With the addition of Singh’s song to the soundtrack, it exposes many new listeners to Punjabi music.

It has been a signature tradition of the EA franchise to mix well-known and independent artists on their yearly soundtrack, which has drawn in and maintained a diverse gaming community.

This song will be featured alongside names like Billie Eilish, Central Cee and Charli XCX, who have been some of the biggest artists of 2024.

This addition to the soundtrack surprised many and excited music fans for this year’s version of the game.

The original song by Bally Sagoo and Malkit Singh has over 35 million views on YouTube and three million streams on Spotify.

It was then remixed in 2023 to form the song ‘DESI TRILL’, for which a new music video featuring Malkit Singh was also released.

One netizen commented on the song’s inclusion: “Imagine getting beaten 4-0 on Fut Champs, but Malkit Singh starts playing.”

A Reddit user said: “This is amazing. Punjabi is reaching new heights.”

A comment from a TikTok video also said: “I am so proud of Punjab.”

This is the third consecutive year that an Indian artist has been featured on the football simulator’s soundtrack.

For EA FC 25, Malkit Singh is not the only South Asian artist.

Ahadadream is also on the soundtrack for his track ‘TAKA’, which features Priya Ragu and Skrillex.

EA FC 25 will be released worldwide on September 27, 2024, but gamers who paid extra for Ultimate Edition were given access a week early on September 20.

The game is playable on the PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
