Breakthrough/Debut song of the year

The first award of the evening is for the best breakthrough song of the year. And the winner is Oliver Heldens with UK #1 Gecko (Overdrive) which was the biggest breakthrough dance single since Martin Garrix's Animals and deservedly wins the award now. Gecko is up for more awards tonight so we could see Oliver with multiple wins.




Oliver Heldens steps onto the stage, showing off his #1 single

Yes Gecko! Fully deserved that.

The act was a harder choice but CB have done the most out of them so it makes sense.

Next up we present the awards for vocal performances, because sometimes it's not just the production that makes a dance song what it is.

Male vocal performance of the year

Sir John Newman doesn't only have a BuzzKnighthood and four #1s, but now he takes home a dance forum award for his vocal on Calvin Harris' 'Blame'. Mr. Probz really should've won but Newman is undeniably a great vocalist!




John Newman follows in the footsteps of Miley Cyrus by smoking onstage. What a rebel

The full results:

14 John Newman on 'Blame'
12 Olly Alexander of Years & Years on 'Sunlight'
8 Sam Martin on 'Dangerous'
7 Mr. Probz on 'Waves' (Robin Schulz Remix)
7 MNEK on 'Ready For Your Love'
6 Calvin Harris on 'Summer'

Female vocal performance of the year

Becky Hill gets the second 'Gecko' award of the evening for her amazing vocal on it. Hopefully she can actually get a hit by herself soon, Losing was great and should've smashed sleep.gif




Becky Hill reminds us all where she came from. When will the Voice UK winners evah?

The full results:

16 Becky Hill on 'Gecko (Overdrive)'
14 Jess Glynne on 'Rather Be'
12 Ellie Goulding on 'Outside'
9 Kiesza on 'Hideaway'

Now we've awarded vocal performance, it's time to award non-vocal performance. So here we have, for the first time, the instrumental of the year award! Followed by the long song of the year award as we all know some dance songs are very long.

Instrumental of the year

Oliver Heldens takes home his 2nd award of the night for the instrumental mix of 'Gecko', making this song the definitive one of the awards ceremony. Whether it will win Song of the year though is to be discovered.




Oliver Heldens goes for the serious approach with his 2nd acceptance speech

The full results:

17 Oliver Heldens - Gecko
14 Watermat - Bullit
12 Ten Walls - Walking With Elephants
8 Oliver Heldens - Koala

Long/Extended song of the year

So Ten Walls couldn't get best instrumental, but instead wins long song of the year, for his five and a half minute effort Walking With Elephants! An amazing song and definitely worthy of winning




Ten Walls explains how he's actually one person despite the plural name

The full results:

21 Ten Walls - Walking With Elephants
17 Oliver $ / Jimi Jules 'Pushing On (Original Mix)'

Next we award the best remix of the year and then look to the future with what song you'd like to smash next year.

Remix of the year

Robin Schulz did 2 brilliant and massive remixes this year, and he takes this award with 'Prayer In C' just beating MK's 'My Head Is A Jungle' remix by getting more +3s




Robin Schulz looking v~ swagtastic

The full results:

17 Lilly Wood and the Prick 'Prayer In C' (Robin Schulz Remix)
17 Wankelmut & Emma Louise 'My Head Is A Jungle' (MK Remix)
11 Mr. Probz - Waves (Robin Schulz Remix)
7 MK feat. Alana 'Always' (Route 94 Remix)

Song you want to smash the chart in 2015

Another close battle, but Omi and Felix Jaehn take it for 'Cheerleader' which will be released this March and is looking likely to be a big smash hit, providing that radio 1 playlist it. It was #1 in Sweden for 9 weeks and is currently spending its 5th week at #1 in Denmark.




Omi hopes for his song to go to #1 in the UK

The full results:

18 Omi - Cheerleader (Felix Jaehn Remix)
17 Hannah Wants & Chris Lorenzo - Rhymes

from worst to best up next with the song of the year categories!

Worst song of the year

Tegan & Sara attempted EDM for The Lego Movie and it was awful, not helped by The Lonely Island's rapping of course but the chorus is so annoying!




Tegan & Sara not looking too pleased with their "win"

The full results:

15 Tegan & Sara ~ Everything Is Awesome!!! (feat. The Lonely Island)
9 David Guetta feat. Kaz James - Blast Off
8 Mr. Probz - Waves (Robin Schulz Remix)
7 New World Sound & Thomas Newson feat. Lethal Bizzle - Flutes

Song of the year

Robin Schulz's 2nd award of the evening, except this time for 'Waves' which is voted the best dance song of the year. I definitely agree wub.gif




Mr. Probz takes the award for himself and Robin, particularly thanking Danaelanda for 'Waves' selling nearly 2 million there

The full results:

14 Mr. Probz - Waves (Robin Schulz Remix)
12 Oliver Heldens x Becky Hill - Gecko (Overdrive)
11 Clean Bandit feat. Jess Glynne - Rather Be
10 Kiesza - Hideaway
7 Kiesza - Giant In My Heart

Other than Music Video (which is spot on) boo at those other results!

Everything Is Awesome is just great fun and shouldn't be taken seriously (it's from the Lego movie!!!) Waves should be winning worst song not best song & although Motion is a very strong album I preferred a lot of the rest on that list.

Let's get back to it!

Record Label of the year

The winner here of course is Spinnin' Records who keep releasing really good songs, it's easy to see why they're at the top of the game.

The full results:

19 Spinnin' Records
12 Ministry of Sound
6 Ultra
5 3Beat

The Beatport Award for Sub-Genre of the year

If any one genre has dominated 2014 it certainly is deep house, with many of the year's big smashes being deep house or with deep house influences. It's a genre that's really delivered for me anyway so glad to see it win here.

The full results:

22 Deep house
10 Tropical house
7 Future house
5 Electro house
1 Progressive house

The final 2 awards of the evening are the big ones, one where the best groups and producers of the year battle it out. Firstly we have...

The Krewella 1.0 Memorial Award for Group of the year

Blonde vs. Clean Bandit vs. Gorgon City vs. Sigma



































Clean Bandit pictured outside the Dance Forum Awards 2014 as they are told they've won another award (let's forget that it says BRITS)

And of course Clean Bandit are the winners, picking up their 2nd award of the evening after winning Breakthrough act. They are a great group so it only makes sense that they get this award.

The full results:

22 Clean Bandit
15 Gorgon City
12 Sigma
3 Blonde

The Tim Bergling Award for Producer of the year

Now the final award, so good that it's named after the best producer of the year, although for whatever reason Avicii hasn't been shortlisted for this. sleep.gif

Calvin Harris vs. David Guetta vs. Martin Garrix vs. Oliver Heldens vs. Robin Schulz





























Calvin Harris shows off his 2 awards from this evening

Calvin Harris has had a massive year including 2 UK #1s and even if a lot of his new songs are in the style of 18 Months it clearly still works for us as we still love him. His music is amazing to be fair. He should have a big 2015 too when he releases Pray To God anyway.

The full results:

23 Calvin Harris
10 Oliver Heldens
10 Robin Schulz
5 David Guetta
6 Martin Garrix

That's it for last year's awards season, we may have another at the end of this year if there is enough interest. Thanks for reading voting and commenting if you have done so
