His Coldharbour Recordings joins Ultra, Defected, Ministry of Sound, Spinnin’, Toolroom and parent-label Armada in the role call for Best Global Music Label. Following the IDMA’s announcement, Markus said: “Across all the areas of music I work in it’s been 12 magnificent months to remember and I’m delighted that the fans have seen fit to place me in so many IDMA categories this year. I look forward to seeing as many of them as possible throughout the course of Winter Music Conference, at Space and UMF. See you all in the Sunshine State folks!”
