A few weeks ago, we announced that we’d be going glossy. Well, that day has arrived. Newsstands today will carry our first glossy issue, which is also nicely trimmed and stapled.The premiere glossy issue features Tim Elfrink’s story “Homesick,” which delves into the Chinese drywall issue affecting South Florida homeowners…
I’m in love, y’all! She’s gorgeous. She’s got this awesome hairstyle that is a cross between Amy Winehouse and some atrocity created with Bumpits. Her skin glows of fake orange tanner that one can only assume she was dipped in Tang. Some asshole thought it was okay to hit her…
Monday seems like the most logical day to stay home and avoid going in to work hung over the next day. But what kind of Miamian would stay home on a weeknight? Then again, if a low-key affair is something you are looking for, check out the Duchess, the Monday-night…

I rarely ever take flier handouts while walking at night around South Beach, but for some reason as I was leaving Klutch I took an Ultra flier from a guy. Honestly, the first thing I felt was exhaustion because I don’t know if I can handle the fact that Winter…
Kid SisterFriday, January 1, 2009Klutch, Miami BeachBetter Than: Electro-rap posers like Kesha.Here I thought LMFAO was the worst thing to happen to hipster-hop, but then came Feminem songstress Kesha. Coing to the industry’s attention when she sang on Miami hip-hop artist Flo Rida’s hit single “Right Round,” she seemed rather…
Vacation is over, South Florida. After two weeks of back-to-back long weekends, we are finally returning to our same ol’ routine for a while at least. In case you were elsewhere visiting ungrateful relatives, here is what you missed over the weekend:Phish at American Airlines ArenaThe Vermont jam band invaded…
When jam band Phish took over the American Airlines Arena four nights in a row, we never expected the city to turn into a neo-psychedelia mecca. But the high seems to have lasted long after Phish and its phans left town, courtesy of the six-day Jam Cruise setting sail from…
Just because you are still recovering from the hangover incurred on New Year’s Eve doesn’t mean you need to spend the rest of the weekend in bed. Take advantage of the fact that you are enjoying an extra-long weekend. Trust us — Miami nightlife isn’t going to wait for your…
We’ve talked about DJ/production duo LA Riots plenty on this blog. And how can you blame us? It seems like they are in town every chance they get. Recently, they spun at Fort Lauderdale’s Exit 66 only to return soon there after to take over the decks at LIV. Over…
Local DJs like Oscar G and Cedric Gervais may get all the glory on a national level, but they better watch out for Lazaro Casanova. The young musician has gone from obscure indie-party DJ to legit techno/house producer. He even paired up with Jay-You to create a bi-coastal record label,…
Another year in the books. It is just us or did 2009 seemed to rush by like it was in overdrive? Still, 2009 was another stellar year for clubland, music and all. The economic recession didn’t prove to be the wet blanket many had predicted it would be. The nightclubs…
You just spent Christmas Day opening presents, and instead of that sweet MacBook you wanted, your parents got you a Dell, a poor person’s PC. Why do they hate you so much? Don’t they understand the status symbol of a Mac evokes greatness as you pretend to write the next…
Face it. You waited until the last minute to buy Christmas gifts. You could take the easy route and just get everyone gift cards, but a piece of plastic hardly says you put in any thought. That’s where everyone’s favorite local independent music store comes in. Tonight, Sweat Records is…
Paris-via-South Florida singer Uffie has been quiet for the last few years. However, late this year she finally released a video for her track “Pop The Glock” — almost 4 years after it was released. Ed Banger head honcho Pedro Winter, a.k.a. Busy P, explained that the odd move was…
The end of the year is almost upon us and since a lot of us are on vacation and too lazy to do any actual reporting, we fill up our time doing awesome end-of-year pieces recapping everything that was. Still, it’s nice to take a step back and look at…
Here is a bit of weekend leftovers that we didn’t get around to posting until late. If you missed dubstep master Rusko at White Room on Saturday you perhaps missed the most energetic DJ set you’d probably ever witness. The Brit isn’t just content playing to a crowd, he wants…
It’s there, lurking in your closet buried underneath mounds of clothes. You’d donate it to Goodwill but you know you are obligated to wear it once a year to prove to grandma that you “absolutely love it.” Beside, who would be stupid enough to buy it even if it was…
The temperature dropped the weekend, which finally gave us reason to take out our Cosby sweaters. But in case the cold kept you indoors, here is what you missed over the weekend:Surfer Blood at VagabondWest Palm Beach’s Surfer Blood finally came home after being on the road to a warm…
Let’s just put this out there first: Lady Gaga is a hack who thinks she’s doing the world a favor by making an “artistic statement.” Sorry, her music and performances are about as artistic as something our 5-year-old niece drew. We’d just like her to admit she’s doing straight-up commercial…
All the best things in life are free. So wouldn’t it be nice if there were a free New Year’s Eve event to go to? Wait, there is! Thanks to Giant Step — the same people who brought Kid Sister to the Delano for Art Basel — Baltimore’s Rye Rye…
