• On the List - Roger Sanchez, Justin Martin and JD Samson

  We're hoping the current cold snap disappears this weekend. We don't know if we can handle another night of freezing temperatures. Why? Because Miami's nightlife scene isn't equipped to handle cold patrons. Clubs lack coat checks, so if you bundle up to keep warm outside, you're most likely going to have to throw it in a dark corner and pray it doesn't get stolen.So let's hope the coats can stay home, because here is what you want to check out this weekend:Famed New York house DJ Roger Sanchez s

• Miami According to Brooklyn: On Loyalty

  photo by Justin Namon, www.thepopnessparty.comTo read past installments of Miami According to Brooklyn, click here. This week I'm just gonna shoot off at the mouth. I want to talk about loyalty. And I don't mean this to sound like bitching or complaining -- I'm just talking about a topic that's very important to me. I just feel that my whole life, I've always tried to see the brighter side of things and tried to look at people in a different light, just trying to give everybody the benefit

• A Decade of Poplife June 6 at White Room

  It's official: Poplife turns 10 next month. Last year, when we sat down and spoke with founders Aramis Lorie and Barbara Basti about the party turning 9, we thought that was a milestone, but 10 sounds so much more official, no? And to celebrate that achievement, the party is bringing Atlanta rockers Snowden to help with the festivities. The quartet is probably best known for their tracks "Black Eyes" (made hipster dancefloor-ready by Atlanta DJ Le Castle Vania) and "Anti Anti." Word is also ther

• Head Spins: Danny Ashe

  Is a DJ a musician? Some say yes, some say no. If you say yes, what happens when the DJ ditches the turntable and kicks on the Serato? Are they still musicians? And what about the Pioneer CDJ folks? Or the Apple core crowd? Are they musicians too?The question is as old as disco and has been revived at least as many times. The answer is also pretty much moot. What difference does it make if you consider a turntable to be an instrument as long as the person behind it is playing music worth dancing

• Poplife Says Goodbye to White Room

  Photo by Jose D. DuranPoplife founders Barbara Basti and Aramis Lorie.​Poplife has never really been a faithful lover, so White Room should have seen this coming from a mile away. We heard the rumors weeks ago, but we were told it was off the record. However, today we received word via press release that Saturday's event with Black Moth Super Rainbow will be Poplife's last at the venue.As for where its moving to, no word on that yet. In fact, Poplife is going on hiatus for the month of August

• Flyer of the Week: Christian Death at PS14 August 9

  ​It was 1979 and punk was being born again in the glitter-flecked primordial muck of Los Angeles. Late-blooming skinheads and bands like Black Flag, the Circle Jerks, and the Germs were bashing the West Coast hardcore scene into shape, using little more than blunt force. For most fans of aggro tuneage, this latest reinvention of outrage and anarchy seemed like a perfectly acceptable next step in the evolution of anti-establishment noise. But 16-year-old Roger Alan Painter hated that shit. To h

So after BlackBook sat down with Aramis Lorie, Barbara Basti and Jake Jefferson -- better known as the people behind the Poplife brand -- we definitely feel like we're standing a bit taller.The Q&A, written by freelancer John Hood (who also writes for us on occasion), doesn't exactly reveal anything the New Times hasn't written before about the crew, but its s
