• The Juan MacLean Returns to Miami January 21

  Last time I saw The Juan MacLean, it was at Poplife when it still called The District home. I actually didn't know who he was and had just sort of stumbled into the party. But soon after that, I was hooked. The Juan MacLean sound is so smooth and cool, it's hard to resist him calling you to the dancefloor.And I will heed his calling when he stops by The Vagabond Wednesday, January 21, as part of the Scion House Party series. Also on the bill is New York duo Still Going along with Poplife residen

• Q&A with The Juan MacLean

  It's been a while since The Juan MacLean has had a stop in Miami, and while he won't exactly be playing live, we are still excited to hear him spin. Since his last release, 2005's Less Than Human, we've only had a handful of tracks and remixes to hold us over, so we are hoping he spins some of his new tracks during his set, Wednesday, at The Vagabond as part of the Scion House Party series, along with Still Going and local DJs Induce and Jessica Who?We had a chance to speak with MacLean and aske

• Hold On to Holy Ghost! at LIV Wednesday

  It wasn't too long ago that Brooklyn duo Holy Ghost! was here. Much like their DFA lablemates Hercules & Love Affair and The Juan MacLean, they submerged themselves in the whole new disco revival happening right now. While, surely there will be a slew of disco-house artists to come and bastardize the genre (much like the current crop of electro-house artists butchering the once-respected style) Holy Ghost! are definitely part of the first wave who are doing it right.The duo already scored d

• The Juan MacLean Performing Live at LIV on May 27

  Dance-punker The Juan MacLean is going on tour to promote the release of his latest effort, The Future Will Come, which was released about a week ago. The album has received fairly positive reviews from Rolling Stone and The Guardian for its electro disco-revivalist grooves and Nancy Whang's breezy vocals. It's a good follow-up to his less-inspired but successful debut, Less Than Human. He was last in Miami in January DJing a Scion party at the Vagabond. This time he and his full band touches at

• Diary of a Flasher: Urban Beach Week, Dirty Hairy, and Youth Fair, Bro!

  Photo by Jipsy, nefariousgirl.comLIV's light show is out of this worldWith all the rain and clouds, I've kept myself busy shooting all over town. Best time, in a long time, goes to the 10th annual Urban Beach Week this past weekend. Ocean Drive is wide open, but traffic was almost at a standstill. That is, of course, because part of the experience is to cruise all over South Beach showing off your chromed-out, expensive cars and that alone seemed like a parade of shiny, colorful toys. My favorit
