''VIMA Awards'' was Asia's first independent music awards when launched in 2008. VIMA MUSIC AWARDS was formed in 2008 by Siva Chandran, Tevan Manickam and Merp Premo - 3 individuals with different backgrounds who wanted a change in the music scene not only in Malaysia but globally. The team restructured and co-founder Meera Thuraivel joined the team in 2010 to help elevate the awards platform into 3 other big brands - IndieGo Music Awards (South Asia- India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh & Pakistan), GAMA (Global African Music Awards) and Bite My Music Global Awards (World Cup of Independent music awards). VIMA is under the Bite My Music Global Awards platform. The current awards was held on February 2013. VIMA was held 3 other times before. VIMA 2009, VIMA 2010 and VIMA 2012. VIMA 2011 was not held and was replaced by a charitable concert called Indie Aid Japan to raise funds for the tsunami victims of Japan in May 2011. Bite Media also teamed up with Sony Music Entertainment Malaysia to release a BEST OF VIMA compilation featuring 16 of the best songs of VIMA 2013. The compilation was launched on 8 July 2013 and featured musicians such as Amanda Imani, Amirah Ali, Beat The System, Jaclyn Victor, Hevance, Arvinder Raina, Bihzhu, Poova, Malique, Roshan Jamrock, Thyviya, Psycho.Unit, MeandMy PunjabiFriend, Pheelers, Alex Subryn, SlaP!, Abstrak Hingga Ke Bulan and Paperplane Pursuit.

VIMA 2014 is also expanding to include a sub-award platform called VIMA India, to recognize musicians from India, in an effort to build a bridge between Southeast Asia and India. ==Award Event== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「VIMA Music Awards」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
