It's the first weekend of 2012.

And after two consecutive weeks of hard holiday ballin', the $100,000 parties have finally come to an end. Lucky for us, however, we live in America's playground and there's always something to do.

From hip-hop spots to electro-house megaclubs, the options are endless 'round Greater Miami. Check out Crossfade's picks for Miami's best club parties on South Beach this weekend.

Patrick M. Thursday, January 5, LIV. Dude's got thick black hair like Yani and a knack for EDM. If your dad liked house music, Patrick M would play his third wedding. Call 305-674-4680 for table reservations.

LA Riots. Friday, January 6, LIV. If you thought Rodney King got an unfair beating, wait till this LA-based electro duo slaps you 'round with their remixes and bass drops. Make sure your ears don't bleed onto your designer shirt, bro. Purchase tickets here.

Magic Circus presents Peter Gelderblom. Friday, January 6, Amnesia Miami. This isn't a family-friendly, Ringling Brothers-type circus, it's a full-on electro freak fest complete with bleep-bleep rearrangements of Red Hot Chili Peppers ditties. Holy dance music! Purchase tickets here.

Rublevka Russian Christmas Party. Friday, January 6, SET Nightclub. It's beginning to look a lot like Moscow inside SET as the Opium Group spot goes Soviet Union on your ass with a Russian Christmas party. Russian rapper Timati and bottles of Stolichnaya, yo. Reserve a table here.

Morgan Page. Saturday, January 7, WALL at the W South Beach. Progressive beats shake the walls at WALL this Saturday night when Burlington, Vermont's Morgan Page dumps $50 electro-house on the kids. Purchase tickets here.

The Life Saturdays. Saturday, January 7, SoBe Live. Swag it out with the grown and sexy at Miami's hottest hip-hop dance party. Make sure your girl looks fine 'cause ladies get in free and drink for nothin' till midnight.
