There's a healthy selection of Bristol-based nominees up for this year's awards.

 

Nominations have been announced for this year's DJ Mag Best of British awards, with an array of stellar Bristol-based artists, labels and releases in the running.

 

Shining a light on the homegrown talent keeping the UK at the forefront of contemporary dance music, the Best of British awards have been running annually for over a decade. 

 

After last year's awards ceremony was moved online due to the Covid-19 pandemic, DJ Mag will be taking over London's Steel Yard to announce the 2021 winners on Thursday 16 December.

 

Voting for the DJ Mag Best of British awards is open now, and will close on 29 November. Browse the full list of nominees and cast your votes here.

There's a decision to be made in the options for Best Compilation, as seminal Bristol label Livity Sound go toe-to-toe with Invicta Audio, recognised for their Molten Mirrors and 1 Year of Invicta releases respectively.
