What happens why you forget a good friend’s birthday? Well, you perhaps try to avoid that person for a while until you can figure out how to make it up to them and then give them a kick-ass party insisting this was the plan all along. So perhaps this is…
We reported back in February that the creators of crobar were opening a new Fort Lauderdale club called Exit 66. Well if you are burning with anticipation, the wait is over as the nightclub finally opens this weekend. The place is described as “the newest nightlife playground to hit the…
Miami’s indie and alternative nightlife scene is arguably controlled by only a handful of promoters. While some people are perfectly content letting those promoters continue as the hegemony, others are taking their discontent and using it to give the city a truly new alternative. “People used to party so hard…

Exxxotica has left us with many things, including plenty of porn for the next few months weeks days, a slideshow and something probably only antibiotics can take care of. But before we close out the chapter on this year’s porn convention, videographer Jacob Katel gives us a glimpse of the…

Just when I thought the hipster-hop genre was dead, in comes up-and-coming Brooklyn MC Theophilus London to save the day. London has been on the cusp of breaking it big for that last year or so and has received plenty of accolades from publications likes The Fader and Urb, which…
If you stayed home this weekend, it was either because the unbearable heat kept you indoors or because you actually tried to behave yourself on Mother’s Day. Skin and sin was aplenty this weekend (er, well more than normal), so here is what you missed:Nine Inch Nails and Jane’s Addiction…
Talk about a T&A weekend! Exxxotica is in town and so is Aqua Girl, making this a great weekend to see plenty of lovely ladies around the beach. So get ready, because here is what you might want to check out this weekend:For seven days, 120 cars have travel 3,000…
If you haven’t checked out, take a glimpse at the photo excerpts from the book Miami Graffiti by James and Karla Murray. In it the pair documents Miami’s street art scene gorgeously and in vivid colors. Last night, Buck 15 celebrated the book release by inviting local b-boys and graffiti…
A little lesson in recessionomics: Why pay $250 for a bottle of Absolut at a South Beach nightclub when you can pay $27 at your corner liquor store? Miami’s bottle service business model has gotten way out of hand, but it seems only with the recent financial turmoil that we’ve…
For more than a year, LMFAO (SMS shorthand for “laugh my fucking ass off”) has been bastardizing the hipster-hop genre with its single “I’m in Miami, Bitch!” off its 2008 Party Rock EP. At one point, acts such as Kid Sister, Spank Rock, Amanda Black, and the Cool Kids seemed…

A few months ago, New Times editor Chuck Strouse admired Buk Fifty’s work above I-95. However, some people didn’t think it wasn’t as cool as Strouse made it out to seem. Personally, I take more a middle-of-the-road approach. Though defacing signs on I-95 ends up costing the taxpayers money to…
While it might not have the clout of other local musical festivals like Ultra or the temporarily (we hope) defunct Langerado, SunFest still keeps attracting South Floridians looking for a more family friendly event. That’s not to say SunFest doesn’t have an edge. In fact, this year it seems festival…
What’s going on here? We know your standard quince is about a young girl turning into a woman, but we don’t think it suppose to be this literal. Anywho, last night our cameras captured the youthful nostalgia of a ritual only those from Miami (or other Latin American countries) can…
If you missed Fool’s Gold co-founder, Nick Catchdubs, during Winter Music Conference, don’t make the same mistake twice. Not going to rehash too much on why Catchdubs holds a special place amongst many blog-house (electro-house/nu-rave/whathaveyou) fans, except that he is genius when in control of the decks.Contributor John Hood did…
