Fox’s Inaugural EDM Awards Show Postponed

Earlier this year, Fox announced plans for the first-ever Electronic Music Awards, an hour-long EDM awards show that it planned to run next month. Veteran superclub DJ Paul Oakenfold co-founded the show, and it even announced its nominations, giving nods to people like Jamie xx, Disclosure, Skrillex, and Major Lazer. But someone at Fox must’ve read something about the EDM bubble bursting, since the show has now been postponed.

Billboard reports that the show, which was scheduled to be filmed on Thursday night in Los Angeles, won’t be happening as scheduled. A rep says, “As this is the first year of the awards, we have the luxury of flexibility, which we are taking advantage of to decide the optimal timetable to present the awards. With this opportunity, we felt that it would better to represent the electronic music calendar in the fall rather than the spring.” Maybe don’t hold your breath for it happening in the fall, either.
