Back in January of 2016, the first ever Electronic Music Awards were announced to the world. As dance music continues to grow in popularity, the Electronic Music Awards & Foundation announced the new show which will feature Paul Oakenfold as the executive producer.
“I’m thrilled to be a part of an awards show that finally both recognizes and celebrates, on a primetime platform, one of the biggest music genres in the world today,” said Paul Oakenfold.
After a rather long wait, the EMAs are pushing forward and will officially go live on Twitter on September 21, 2017. Check out the full list of nominees for Album Of The Year, Single Of The Year, Record Of The Year, Remix of The Year, Festival Of The Year, Club Of The Year and a number of other categories.
