Photos: Big Boi at SoBe Live, August 18 (UPDATED)

Oh, hey! Look who we spotted at last night’s HP and MySpace event at SoBe Live featuring Big Boi: New Times’ BFF Scott Storch. Wonder if he knew we were so close. Well, the ATLien performed a good mix of both his solo material and work with Outkast. Some highlights…

Juliette Lewis Performs Live at Bardot August 26

I feel like we often ignore Bardot, even though it consistently has live music going on. But it’s just that the bookings aren’t always that compelling, but every now and then there’s a gem. This time it’s actress-turned-rocker Juliette Lewis who will be performing live at the Wynwood lounge August…

Producer Greg Wells Says New Rachel Goodrich Album Finished

The Golden Filter: A Visual Primer

The Daily Creative Food Co. Now Serves Dinner

The other day, we walked into the Daily around 5:30 p.m. to grab a sandwich to go before closing time and were instantly assaulted by signs announcing that the Omni-area eatery was now serving dinner Monday through Saturday from 5 to 9 p.m. It piqued our interest enough that we…

Video: M.I.A. “XXXO”

If the “Born Free” video and the subsequent PR nightmare leading up to the release of ///Y/ hurt M.I.A.’s chances at mainstream popularity, the newly released video for “XXXO” might help fix that.The track itself is sort of a sleeper — it’s a grow-er, not a show-er. It’s definitely the…

Top Five Remixes by The Twelves, Spinning at Vagabond Saturday

Rio de Janeiro’s the Twelves have been called Brazil’s answer to Daft Punk. That assertion might be a little too far fetched, but there is no denying they are a talented duo both behind the decks and in the studio. As remixers, they instantly got everyone’s attention when they reworked…

Sex Shops and Peep Shows

South Beach loves to glamorize social decay, so it isn’t surprising that Amsterdam’s red-light district, De Wallen, has gotten the SoBe spit-polish treatment. The area, arguably a cesspool of criminal gang activity and human trafficking, is brought to life — minus any actual prostitution — when De Wallen Rouge brings…

Flosstradamus

Since 2006, Josh Young and Curt Cameruci have been making crowds dance their asses off from coast to coast, as well as overseas. As Flosstradamus, they’ve given the remix treatment to huge indie acts such as Matt & Kim and Mates of State. Meanwhile, their own original output has been…

Video: ANR “The Endless Field of Mercury”

I’m a little late to game on this, but last month ANR released a new music video for its track “The Endless Field of Mercury,” a very bold number that starts out slow but turn into sort of call-to-action after about a minute. Personally, I’ve always been sort of “meh”…

Photo: Lady Gaga at Lollapalooza 2010

If you know me, you know how I feel about Lady Gaga and how she’s running the biggest pop scam since Milli Vanilli. But I can put aside my feelings aside for a moment to bring you a snapshot from this year’s Lollapalooza in Chicago courtesy of our sister paper,…
