The results are in…
It’s been a busy week at Drum&BassArena HQ as we collected, tallied, double (and triple) checked your votes from the first round of this year’s Drum&BassArena Awards, sponsored by Cygnus Music & Beatport.
The results speak for themselves with a healthy cross-section of the scene making it into the final list of nominees. Some fresh faces, as well as some mainstays (we’re looking at you Andy!).
Round 2 voting is now officially open. Votes in this round will determine who graces the stage at the Awards ceremony at Brixton Electric December 5th.
Feast your eyes on this year’s finalists and vote now…
