In May, we introduced to you DJ duo Ess & Emm, who together honor their native land of Canada through music once a month at Cafeina at a party called The Eh Team! If you haven’t checked it out, tonight you’ll have another chance during the August edition.Tonight will feature…
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…
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…
Last year, we told you how music producer Greg Wells (Katy Perry, Mika, Pink, Rufus Wainwright, Deftones, and more) had been working with local musician Rachel Goodrich on her follow-up to Tinker Toys. Recently, Wells tweeted an update saying, “The new @Rachel_Goodrich record is done!!! Can’t wait for peeps to…
Saturday, nu-disco duo the Golden Filter returns to Miami a third time, this time at Grand Central. But the Golden Filter is more than just syrupy snyth ballads, they pack a visual punch too. Their videos and photography only add to the dream-like sequence you get when listing to their…
Hey, y’all! Mansion wants you to party like it’s 2007. Like American Apparel isn’t going into bankruptcy. Like parties like Revolver and Spider-Pussy are still going strong.We’ve been alerted to a few upcoming shows at the South Beach mega-club that bring a ting of nostalgia of back when we used…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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…
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”…
Got to give it to Afrobeta. After performing at this year’s Ultra Music Festival — and nabbing a Best of Miami award for “Best Band” along the way — the PR machine has been working nonstop to keep the forward momentum. The duo just got back from playing several European…

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,…
Last night, Ed Banger DJ/producer Breakbot got everyone into the groove with his funk-meets-electro set. It was definitely one of the better DJ sets we’ve heard all year — WMC included. Photographer Lex Hernandez captured Breakbot’s Grand Central debut.Hernandez has actually been busy all week shooting for ClubChaser, so take…
Frommer’s “highly recommends” Versailles, touting it as “a glorified diner,” where Cuban exiles meet over a cafécito.
