I told myself just before I entered the URL to this site that I bet there would be a 2003 awards thread, and I was right! Below I listed more than one producer/label for each choice seeing as how I can't choose between producers of various styles, its kind of stupid to do so. I'm sure I am forgetting something in this list.
Best Producer: (Hard stuff) Skoog (Clubby) Hertz (Minimal) Villalobos or Stewart Walker
Best Producer(newcomer): (dark) Reeko (light) Tomie Nevada
Best Label: (Bangin) Audio Assault (Club) Sway (balls out nasty) Counterbalance (new) Emergence
Best DJ: (wtf) Surgeon (clubby) Carola (bangin) Tobias Von Hoftsen
Best Dj(newcomer): Haven't heard any DJs come our way!
Best Live Act: Reeko, Hardcell & Grindvik
Best Musical Concept: I have to think about this one...
Best Artwork: Both BMB releases...otherwise not a good year for artwork
Best E.P: Petar Dundov - Kaskades, Matthew Dear Spectral EP2, Sway 04

2003 belonged to: Patrik Skoog. It doesn't matter if you like his productions or not, you have to admit this was his year.
