History
The awards were formalized as the Indonesian Music Awards in 1997 as a joint project between
ASIRI (Recording Industry Association of Indonesia), PAPPRI (Singers, Songwriters, and Music Record Producers Association of Indonesia), and KCI (Copyright Office of Indonesia).
Organization
Each of the three founding organizations originally contributed one board member, under the direction of Indonesian
country singer
Tantowi Yahya. Under this board was another, less powerful board. Afterwards, further divisions were added based on specialization, including Marketing, Communication, and Membership.
In 2016, jazz musician Dwiki Dharmawan replaced Yahya as chairman.
Award categories
The Anugerah Musik Indonesia awards are issued in several categories, each of which isolates a specific contribution to music. Anugerah Musik Indonesia (AMI) categories have been added and removed over time.
