Hardstyle Awards adds Most Promising Artist to election of the year

Building on the success of the previous edition, Hard News and Hardstyle.com have partnered once more to present the Hardstyle Awards 2023. In this edition of the election, top-tier artists, labels, tracks, and organisations will be acknowledged for their noteworthy contributions over the past year. This year, it’s also possible to vote for the most promising artist.

If you have voted for last year’s edition of the Hardstyle Awards, you might remember that one of the categories was ‘Best Talent’. With a big smile, Cryex took home that prestigious award. For the rising star, this award felt like a crown on his work: “It feels like all the hard work of this year paid off, I’m proud,” he mentioned before.

Most Promising Artist by XXL Nutrition

For the Hardstyle Awards 2023, the decision has been made to replace the ‘Best Talent’ award with ‘Most Promising Artist’. This choice was made because the term ‘Talent’ conveys the idea of a young artist who is just entering the world of harder styles. However, there are many artists who have been producing for years and have more experience, but only breaking through later. So, who left a substantial mark on the hardstyle scene in the previous year? Who is destined to shine as the star of the future? That what the ‘Most Promising Artist’ award by XXL Nutrition is about.

Keep in mind that your vote matters significantly in this fan-driven category. It’s important to highlight an artist who has truly had a breakthrough this year and has shown significant growth compared to the previous year.
