Franx Paul's Reaches the ISC 2025 Semifinal: The First of Three Historic Milestones

2025 gave Franx Paul's the achievement of a historic milestone: the semifinal of the International Songwriting Competition, one of the most prestigious music contests in the world.

A result that confirmed the strength of an independent project, guided by the artist's official label MFTDCP8, capable of competing with international-level record labels without creative compromises.

How Difficult Is It to Reach the ISC Semifinal?

The numbers speak clearly. Every year, the International Songwriting Competition receives over 20,000 tracks from approximately 150 countries and in 2025, entries reached 26,000.

Only 15% pass the first filter and access the semifinal. Thousands of artists, a ruthless listening committee, extremely rigorous selection criteria. Reaching the final, instead, means passing an extremely narrow selection: only 2% of total entrants are judged by a stellar jury composed of celebrities and top executives of the music industry.

Becoming part of that 15% is not a matter of luck, but of pure talent, recognized and celebrated at a global level.

The Single That Conquered the ISC Jury

The official video of the single that reached the ISC 2025 semifinal in the EDM category is available on Vevo and on YouTube:

A Multisensory Path That Works

This semifinal represents concrete proof that a multisensory artistic approach, where music, fashion and design merge into a single creative vision, can establish itself on the global scene, through an independent brand, not following the rules of the mainstream, but its own.

However the story does not end here.

Because when you reach a milestone like this once, you ask yourself: "Can I do it again?"

The answer comes soon, in just three months.

Stay tuned.
