Nominees for the 14th Edition of the DJ Awards have now marked their diaries with a massive gold star. This annual ceremony takes place on Tuesday 27th September at Pacha, Ibiza.
FIRE is the theme for the 2011 DJ Awards, which changed the history of humanity and civilization. It's a symbol used for millions of years at music gatherings, it's a source of inspiration and purification, it's the creator of power of life, energy and change which represents spirituality, enlightenment and renewal, and it's going to set this night on fire!
DJs are already urging their fans to get voting for them at www.djawards.com where everyone can nominate their heroes to win the prestigious Kryptonite.
Voters are also automatically entered into a draw for the chance to win 10 invitations to attend the ceremony.
The DJ Awards has 11 distinctive music style categories, with 8 nominees in each of them. There are also 11 ‘Special Awards’ which are decided by a panel of dance industry experts.
