In celebration of EDM.com‘s 10-year anniversary, we’re presenting a brand-new, first-of-its-kind initiative, the “Artist Choice” list.
While some annual lists and awards are dictated by fan voting and others are data-driven, the “Artist Choice” list was exclusively sourced from the scene’s actual musicians. Over 300 of the world’s biggest dance music artists, across a plethora of sub-genres, were contacted and polled in a months-long initiative.
The ongoing project is designed to cut through the noise and celebrate the enduring impact of electronic dance music as recognized by those who best understand the intricacies of the industry: the artists themselves. We sought out these artists to provide insights into the best festivals, music producers and many other distinctions to spotlight their peers’ impressive accomplishments throughout 2023.
Check out the inaugural “Artist Choice” winners below.
