"LOXY & INC"

LMFAO. Jeeeeeez. Why not let each category be run by someone who knows what they're doing. Obviously they got the info for the jump up category, but leave the other categories for someone with a clue

Also, no Adi J in the laydeez category.

The breakthru dj category is waste - fairly sure the likes of distorted minds and drumsound have been around a fair while now. Sabre is already a big name imo and should be in the main category!

Hardware are listed in best promotor category, but not the best club night? There's clearly no consistency in these, as per last year, a complete joke.

Oh and I love how some producers have four or five tracks listed in the best category award, whilst other tracks have been completely overlooked.

Who makes this 'official' anyway. It's bollocks.

Bring back knowledge awards, these are a farce.

/end rant.

With awards like this, catogories should be put up, then the public nominate who ever they want. Then the top 10 names that come up in each section then go up for a public vote or something like that. Just seems that whoever picked these nominees has just scanned DNBA arena and picked out the names they see alot..

Like Misdemeanor said, its a joke some producers have at least 3 or 4 entries for a track when there are plenty of tracks by other producers not even on there.

I've voted, but i've voted accordingly, one section think it was best event...I hadn't even been to any of them, so just voted for Sun & Bass as that would be my answer i'm sure.

Pendulum said that yet they still take bookings for dnb nights quite happily and have dnb artists on the same bill.


Pendulum = money grabbing, sell out, aussie wankers.

Not that that's anything new.

Whats the point of placing any votes - you just give it more legitimacy

Its still gonna happen though, so worth getting votes in for HQ & the Oxford lot and anyone in those categories that actually deserves the award. Ie ppl that are actually breakthrough rather then someone who broke through several years ago. Just my opinion though ;)

so if the Oxford people win then they deserve it but if acts who shouldnt be in certain categories win its all a farce?!
