Wednesday evening's awards also favoured rapper The Kid Laroi, who was named Best Artist. The 18-year-old Indigenous Australian from Sydney also scored Best Pop Release for his three-time-platinum single, Stay, recorded with Justin Bieber.
"It's incredible I'm getting this much love," he told the livestreamed award ceremony.
"It's all I ever wanted to do - bring up the culture and show the world how good Australian music was."
Zimbabwean-born Australian singer-songwriter and rapper Tkay Maidza took out Best Soul/R&B Release for her EP Last Year Was Weird, Vol. 3.
Grammy-nominated dance music trio Rufus Du Sol won in both their nominated categories, Best Dance Release and Best Group, for single Alive.
Song of the Year was given to Booster Seat by Perth four-piece Spacey Jane.
