Local Murcian talent was the great protagonist at the ceremony for the fourth edition of the Premios de la Música de la Región, organised by the association Hay un tigre detrás de ti, and held at the Cuartel de Artillería de Murcia.At this great celebration of music, which shone despite the pandemic, the long experience of some of the winners, such as Los Marañones, Juan Antonio Ross and the Ballet Español de Murcia, contrasted with the drive of young artists who are arriving with great confidence and are already being recognised beyond the region's borders.

Thus, one of the awards that generated the most anticipation, Best Pop Album, went to Alemán Ross (Juan Antonio Ross) for Interstellar (Rock Indiana). Also in the running for this award were Carmesí with Deshielo (produced by Pepe Ludeña) and Kracauer with Diferencia y Repetición (produced by Carlos Hernández and El Castillo).

Meanwhile, veterans of the Murcian scene Los Marañores were honoured in the Best Rock Album category for their work La máquina del tiempo, produced by Miguel Bañón.Just missing out were Arde Bogotá with El tiempo y la actitud (produced by Lalo GV) and Cooper Age with Buerismo (self-produced).

Kaze, with his album Broken -produced by Kaze for Unitdreams Music- was named Best Urban Music Album. Competing in this category were Álex Orellana & Beatdilla, with Under the influence (produced by Jayder) and Jamones con Tacones, with Power Walking (Ama Estudios and Guarde Records).

As for Best Album in Other Genres, the winners were Bosco, with Emboscados (Spyro Music), ahead of Komorebi with Materia oscura (Ama Estudios) and Sara Zamora with Do it (Ama Estudios).

Best Music Video also had its award, which went to Luna Komorebi for Raíces, produced by Baikal. The finalists were Jaro Cristo and Sin H with Enter the void (Jayder and Joaquín) and Kracauer with De mierda (produced by Twin Freaks Studio)

The Best Debut award is always an interesting one, and in this edition it went to Ruto Neón. The band has much to celebrate this year, as they also won the CreaMurcia Pop Rock 2020. They were competing with Hoonine and Yarea Guillén.

Changing tack, Silvia Márquez y la Tempestad took home the award for Best Album or Work in the Promotion of Classical Music with At the spanish royal chamber (Ibs Classical). Also in the running were Clara Gil Abascal with the soundtrack for Doble amanecer (a book by Javier Cerezo) and the veteran Orfeón Fernandez Caballero.

The Ballet Español de Murcia, which likewise has many years on the stages of the Region and of half the world, won the award in the category for album or promotion of flamenco with its show Pasión Flamenca. The finalists were José Gelardo (a tribute to his legacy) and Los Poetas de Morente, a show produced by Paco Paredes.

The award for Best Album or Work in the Promotion of Traditional Music went to the Cuadrilla de Aledo with El Tío Juan Rita with 1912, produced by Jose Ramón Muñoz and coinciding with the year of the death of this endearing trovero. They were competing with the Fiesta los Mayos de Alhama and Surefolk, a management agency that has spent 20 years promoting folk and traditional music.

It had already been announced that the Award for Work in Musical Culture would go to the Red de Auditorios y Centro Culturales de Murcia; the Media award to the magazine Mondo Sonoro, and the Legend Award, in recognition of his entire career, to the composer from Jumilla Roque Baños, a regular at film festival awards for his soundtracks.
