The awards take place next month.

The AIR Awards have today unveiled the nominees for the Independent Label Of The Year award.

Nominated for the award this year are ABC Music, Spinning Top Records, Elefant Traks, I OH YOU and Sweat It Out

The award winner will receive a $10,000 digital marketing package to "help showcase their talent to the music public".

"We were very chuffed to win Best Independent Label at the AIR Awards last year, especially knowing that it was voted for by our peers in independent music," said Chapter Music's Guy Blackman, who took out the award last year.

"Running a label can be a fairly behind the scenes, anonymous task, so having people take notice and express their appreciation meant a hell of a lot. Best of luck to all this year's nominees!"

The awards announced artist nominations in July, with Sampa The Great, Stella Donnelly, Tones & I, Angie McMahon, Charlie Collins, Tasman Keith & Stevie Jean, Julia Jacklin, Caiti Baker, Flume, Dyson Stringer Cloher, The Teskey Brothers, Haiku Hands and more among the nominees.
