Billboard\u2018s first Dance Power Players list in seven years<\/a> made waves near the shores of South Beach on Wednesday (March 25) as honorees gathered to toast the accomplishment.<\/p>\n

With the list honoring some of the most powerful people in the global dance music industry, the packed room was a who\u2019s who of the scene and the people who make it go, with executives from Atlantic, Virgin, Casasblanca, EMPIRE, Warner, Ninja Tune, Beatport, Apple, Amazon, The Orchard, Ultra Records, Silqscreen, Prodigy Artists, The Circuit Group, AlphaTheta, LabelWorx, Meta, Billboard editors and a host of other assorted dance world emissaries mingling throughout the night.<\/p>\n

The party happened at the chic Little Torch bar at newly renovated The Shelborne By Proper Hotel, with the vibe-setting not only accomplished by the luxe atmosphere and flowing cocktails, but the music of Miami DJ Jovigibs, who played a host of dance classics including Sylvester\u2019s eternal \u201cYou Make Me Feel (Mighty Real),\u201d keeping the energy high from start to finish.<\/p>\n

The night also saw a swirl of glamour via the artists in the room, with legendary dance vocalist Kiesza hanging during the night and Bebe Rexha<\/a> also making a grand entrance.<\/p>\n

The space was of course stocked with Billboard issues containing the Dance Power Players list, with the cover star of the issue being dance world phenomenon Mau P. The Dance Power Players party happened amid Miami Music Week, a key dance industry gathering that brings much of the world\u2019s dance music community to Miami for days of panel discussions, meetings, parties, afterparties and after after parties, with the week culminating in this weekend\u2019s Ultra Music Festival.<\/p>\n
