The buzz surrounding the 6th Annual Hard Dance Awards 2009 is gathering pace at an alarming rate. Since voting opened late last year, clubbers and hard dance fans alike have been voting in their thousands.

Voting is open until 18th February so there’s still time to have your say on who you think should win the Best DJ and Best Newcomer awards, as well as in the three new categories that include the Outstanding Contribution to Hard Dance Award. Votes can be cast at www.harddanceawards.com.

The event itself is a three room showdown of some of hard dance’s leading artists that include Showtek, and BBC Radio 1’s Kutski, a horde of the UK’s top regional talent and a live awards ceremony starting from 10pm, which is hosted by trackitdown.net’s Ed Real along with some very special guest presenters, including the legendary Howard Marks. Wrap all this up under the roof of the newly refurbished 2,200 capacity Leeds Academy, and this is set to be the biggest hard dance event of the year.

Hard Dance Awards 2009 are being recorded by BBC Radio 1 for a special broadcast from 1am on Friday 6th March in the Kutski show, followed by a Hard Dance Awards Essential Mix. "I'm really looking forward to my Hard Dance Awards special - we'll have interviews, mixes and all the news from the awards plus a special essential mix featuring the newly crowned winners of the Best DJ and newcomer categories. It's going to be a show to remember!" Kutski

The 6th Annual Hard Dance Awards 2009 powered by Trackitdown.net372 dagen geleden
 

On Friday 27th February, Leeds Academy will host the UK’s most powerful event in hard dance, where the pioneers and innovators of the scene are awarded for their contribution... Yes, boys and girls, it’s back and bigger than before – it’s the Hard Dance Awards 2009.

The city of Leeds will be bowled over when it sees 2,200 fanatical clubbers descend on the newly opened Academy for this annual event. This awards ceremony is no stranger to the Academy setting having held its 2007 event at Brixton Academy: but this is a special one for Leeds as it prepares to open its doors for the very first time for an event of this kind. Further enhancing the event is BBC Radio 1 where not one, but two hard dance Essential Mixes will air alongside regular updates on Kutski’s Friday night show.

Who will clean up on the awards for their services to hard dance? It’s up to you to decide. Voting is now open on the official website www.harddanceawards.com where you can cast your vote in categories including Best DJ, Best Producer, and Best Label, and also in three brand spanking new ones.

Sponsors Trackitdown.net have created the Best Artist Album category after a seeing a rise in hard dance releases throughout 2008, Best Regional Hero to give street level DJs recognition for their service to their local area, and the mother of all awards – Outstanding Contribution to Hard Dance. Unlike the others, this is a fixed category with five, set nominations. To find out who’s up for it and to have your say log onto the site now.

This Hard Dance Awards is set to be an all night showdown with a stellar line-up, live stage performances, and the all important awards ceremony. Showcasing three rooms of music, the mighty main room lines up hard dance giants Showtek, Kutski, Andy Whitby, and Rob Tissera, whilst the country’s regional heroes and residents, including BT2’s Strange Dave and Contagious resident Caz Wood, will take over the proceedings on the top floor: and this is still only scratching the surface. Leeds Academy boasts an underground, 400 capacity club with low ceilings and a fat sound system where stalwarts Paul Glazby, the Organ Donors, Tidy DJs, and many more will thrash out the sounds ‘til the early morn.

The awards ceremony, presented by Trackitdown’s Ed Real takes place from 10pm where he’ll be joined by a number of guest presenters. Will Tidy keep the crown for Best Label? Will BK carry on his reign as Best Producer? Find out only at the Hard Dance Awards. Voting closes 14th February 09.

Look out for Hard Dance Awards Euphoria - a three disc CD set containing a bible of hard dance from some of the biggest artists around.
