The Golden Melody Awards (GMAs) have rolled around again, but looking at the nomination list you would be forgiven for thinking it was actually the Golden Indie Awards (GIMAs) given all the cross-pollination going on. Screamo band Flesh Juicer 血肉果汁機 (GIMA Best Album winner), Kumachan’s 熊仔 88BARS (GIMA Best Rap Song winner) and YELLOW 黃宣 (GIMA Best Singer-Songwriter Award winner) are all up for similar awards in the 33rd GMA nominee list, reflecting the gradual blending of boundaries between indie and mainstream genres in Taiwan.
Elsewhere Hakka artist Ayugo Huang 黃連煜’s Mountain Of Doom 滅人山 album and Tanya Chua 蔡健雅’s DEPART have done well, sweeping the nominations in several categories each, while GMA regulars Crowd Lu 盧廣仲 and Waa Wei 魏如萱 also look likely to walk away with awards for their latest album.
There is strong Mainland Chinese representation in the Best Mandarin Vocalist categories, with Xu Jun 許鈞, Jude Chiu 裘德, pop diva TIA RAY 袁婭維 and father of Chinese rock Cui Jian 崔健 battling it out, while the Best Song Award is also impossible to call, as Namewee 黃明志 and Kimberley Chen 陳芳語’s viral hit ‘Fragile 玻璃心’ goes up against two popular film theme tunes from WeiBird 韋禮安’s ‘Red Scarf 如果可以’ and EggPlant Egg 茄子蛋’s ‘Oh Love, You Are Much Greater Than I Imagined 愛情你比我想的閣較偉大’.
APW’s shoutout go to our favorite psychedelic rock band Amazing Show 美秀集團 for their Best Video nomination and Everydaze, up for Best Album Producer for his work on Hui Chu Wang’s 王彙筑 FAC:E album. Check out the nomination list below and check back in early July to find out this year’s winners.
