With Music Lounge being opened this year, I feel like it will be good if we share some of awards run by notable dance/electronic communities. (I know they're still popularity contests, but) Instead of that scammy DJ Mag, please share any annual award that will always be dynamic. New songs, new nominees, new subgenres, etc.

 

Let me begin with something I've always been doing for 5 years:
