DJ Awards have this week confirmed the categories and nominees for the 2014 ceremony and it looks like there are plenty of talented artists, producers and DJs in with a chance of getting their hands on the prize.
Among the nine categories that clubbers and voters in the DJ Awards are already familiar with are two new categories; Breakthrough and Electronica, both of which feature artists who are no less deserving of an award than each other given the amazing year they've had so far both in Ibiza and the studio. The Breakthrough category features the likes of Breach, Dusky, Mano Le Tough, Martin Garrix and Ten Walls while Electronica features Jamie XX, John Talabot and Todd Terje. One thing's for sure, it' going to be a difficult year to decide winners given the calibre and work rate of the artists that have been nominated.
As well as the eleven categories that fans have the opportunity to vote in are twelve special awards selected by a panel based in the music industry that will be presented during the ceremony. These awards include Outstanding Contribution, Record Label of the Year, Track of the Season and Lifetime Achievement to name a few.
The ceremony for the Seventeenth edition of the DJ Awards will take place on Tuesday 30th September at Pacha Ibiza, a venue as deserving to host such an event as the nominees selected for each category.
Voting closes in August so make sure you've voted for your favourite artists this year before it's too late! To vote, head over to djawards.com/vote-now, enter your details, sign up and select your chosen winners from the available categories. What are you waiting for?!
