And we need your help to win! Read below to see how to vote for us.
The PLUG Independent Music Awards have been going on for a few years now. Each fall, an advisory board of ~300 people select nominees in over 30 categories like best Americana Album, Best Record Label, Best Album Packaging, Best Live Act and more. Then the nominees are set loose for the public to pick the winners!
This year we’ve been nominated for the best Music Website Of The Year, which is very exciting. Past winners for this award have gone to the musical juggernauts Pitchfork Media (’05 and ’07) and Myspace (’06). We’ve made a great deal of progress and improvements to our little website over this year and think we have a shot! (Biased? Us?)
So if you enjoy using Hype Machine, please click and vote for us!
You can find us in: Media Categories » General Music » Website Of The Year
** You don’t need to fill out the whole thing, but need to vote in at least 5 categories before submitting your ballot.
Voting is open till February ’08 so you have plenty of time to meet new people, become their friends and then introduce them to Hype! 🙂 If we win, we plan to get drunk, party rockstar style, convince Anthony to wear the cat equivalent of this to the ceremony in March… and document the whole thing!
Got my vote in.

Love the site (thanks for bringing the pop-up player back) and whenever I tell online music newbies about THM, they’re blown away. Congrats on the nomination.

shame Plug has the same 10 artists in every category. I listen to a very broad range of indie music and I still ended up voting for the same band in each category.
And no bigstereo in the blog section?
either way Hypem was an easy vote, good luck

Congratulations. Your site is awesome, I hope you win.
Please keep up the good work and don’t make the site useless by adding 1 million features as it happens so many times.

Just saw the new ad, “Want to meet girls? Use Myspace. Want to discover music? Use Hype.” and it’s hilarious.
