Diplo and Skrillex are Grammy Nominees

12314040_10153777948196797_8357718675981625812_nDiplo, Skrillex and Kaskade have all received Grammy nominations for their work this past year.

The list of nominees for the 2016 Grammys was released on Monday (Dec. 7), revealing a diverse line-up of talent. While still being treated like the red-headed step-child of the award show, electronic dance music remained unnappreciated, receiving the minimum accolades. It’s better than nothing.

The ubiquitous Jack U was present for ‘Best Dance Recording’ thanks to their song “Where Are U Now” with Justin Bieber. Diplo also received a nomination for ‘Producer of the Year, Non-Classical’ along with Jeff Bhasker who worked with F.U.N. on “We are Young” and Blake Mills who has produced for Sky Ferreira and the Alabama Shakes. 11138635_974926879239894_2740916651462776387_n

Kaskade’s remix for “Runaway (U and I)” by Galantis earned the Trance artist a nod for ‘Best Remix (Non-Classical).” Some other notable nominees for a Grammy this year are the Chemical Brothers, Kendrick Lamar, The Weeknd, Nicki Minaj, Ed Sheeran, and Bruno Mars.

Below is the remix which earned Kaskade this year’s shout-out.
