Welcome to the Now Spinning Magazine Annual Music Awards.
Chosen by real music fans, collectors, and listeners
This isn’t a corporate awards ceremony.
This isn’t influenced by streaming numbers or algorithms.
This is something much more meaningful.
These awards are chosen by the people who still buy the music…
who collect physical formats…
who cherish reissues, box sets, and deep catalogue releases…
our community.
It’s a celebration of the artists, the labels, and the music fans who keep physical media alive.
