28 DECEMBER 2007
THE DUTCH DRUM 'N BASS AWARDS 2007

Drum 'n Bass is a full-fledged music genre in the Netherlands with a stable core of crews, artists and big parties. Events such as Major League, Blackout, PRSPCT and Ici One are attended by people from all over the country. Noisia, Black Sun Empire, Martyn, Limewax and Icicle are well-known international names that performs globally. This core is surrounded by an ever growing network. Several high-quality smaller events have arised in 2007 with a growing number of DJ's representing all sub-genres of Drum 'n Bass.

The Drum 'n Bass Awards are the annual occasion to put the Dutch scene in the spotlight. The scene cannot exist without an active group of promotors, graphic designers, record shops, labels and all other members. Because of the efforts of this group 2007 was packed with proper Drum 'n Bass events, DJ-sets, flyers, record releases etc. The Drum 'n Bass Awards invites this group of people and puts them in the spotlight. Just like last year, the Paard van Troje is going to be the meeting point on the 28th of december. The Dutch Drum 'n Bass Awards offers the public a chance to witness a representation of the scene as a whole, at one location, on one party. In addition, the 2007 Drum 'n Bass Awards winners are announced during this event.

Just like in 2006, this year the Awards are organised by the Slam foundation. Slam was established in 2005 with the purpose of stimulating dance music and its culture. More info on SLAM: www.slam.nu
