EDM snubbed at the VMAs

As reported by Dancing Astronaut:

"Despite MTV’s recent MTV Clubland outlet, dance music stars were snubbed of awards at last night’s VMAs. There was Zedd being beat out by Austin Mahone for the fan-voted Artist to Watch, Calvin Harris falling short to Pink for Best Collaboration and to Justin Timberlake for best editing, A-Trak & Tommy Trash being toppled by Ryan Lewis & Macklemore for Best Cinematography, and both Skrillex and Duck Sauce taking a back seat to Capital Cities for Best Visual Effects." 

Can't say that I'm surprised, but I was hoping for at least one award going to an EDM act this year. 

A-Trak & Tommy Trash "Tuna Melt" nominated for 2013 MTV Video Music Award

A-Trak & Tommy Trash's video for "Tuna Melt" has just been nominated for  "Best Cinematography" in this year's MTV Video Music Award.

 Best Cinematography
-Thirty Seconds To Mars, “Up in the Air”
-Lana Del Rey, “Ride”
-Yeah Yeah Yeahs, “Sacrilege”
-Macklemore & Ryan Lewis feat. Ray Dalton, “Can’t Hold Us”
-A-Trak & Tommy Trash, “Tuna Melt”

A-Trak & Tommy Trash weren't the only electronic dance music video nominees as Zedd's "Clarity", Calvin Harris ft. Ellie Goulding "I Need Your Love", Duck Sauce "It's You", Flying Lotus "Tony Tortures", and Skrillex ft. The Doors "Breakn' A Sweat" were also nominated. Good luck!
