Valentine’s Day really blows. If you’re single, lovey-dovey shit will be rubbed in your face at every turn. And if you’re not single, you’ve got to come up with some kind of sappy, cheesy display of affection or else end up in the dog house. And why? Because Hallmark and…
Damn, ladies, you’re looking fine. You know what you deserve? You hard-working, independent ladies are due a night out on the town with your girls and some superhot eye candy. Oh, and supercool, sexy grooves, of course. Good thing the James L. Knight Center (400 SE Second Ave., Miami) is…
Generation Wild Tour at LIV February 14
You know how you can tell a rock star from any average Joe on the street? Their hair, duh. Real rock stars have crazy quaffs. You see a rock star with lame, everyday hair, and you can rest assured they’re just a poser butthead. Same goes for people on the…
Who didn’t get a little wet watching Justin Timberlake and Jay-Z kill it at the Grammys? We haven’t been able to stop thinking about it. We just keep rewatching the clip and dreaming about seeing them in person. Well, thankfully, our dreams are rumored to become reality. If the New…
When was the last time you got down on your knees and kissed Miami? What, never? Well, get down and start kissing, because this town loves you. Do you understand how lucky you are to be here? Supreme talent comes through this place every day. It’s just not natural for…
We’re experiencing a lot of weird feelings right now. We’re not exactly sure how to cope with these emotions. But they say the first step to getting over your problem is admitting you have one. So deep breath … Here we go. We actually enjoyed the 55th annual Grammy Awards…
Remember when people used to buy music? We all convinced ourselves the packaging was actually part of the experience. Especially when someone made an album cover so titillating, stores couldn’t even put a record on the shelf without special censors. Well, even in today’s digital music age, some clever artists…
We really are incredibly lucky here in Miami. Most people across the country save up their money and their energy for that one big show that comes around every three months or so. Here in our cradle of bass, we have tons of awesome artists coming in every couple of…
The XX The Fillmore Miami Beach Tuesday, February 5, 2013 Better Than: Any other XX show up to this point, probably. The XX just played their 100th show earlier this week. But until about 13 hours ago, the Brit indie-pop crew had never been to Miami. It’s a difficult market,…
Hey, Moody Blues, screw those “Nights in White Satin.” This is EDM. And we’re talkin’ Black Lights & White Lingerie. Yeah, we know we’ve got your rapt attention, beat freaks. Because that shit sounds hot. Hopefully, though, it won’t be totally freezing that night, because with this kind of party…
Another beautiful week in Miami. And with all of our sun and fun comes a lot of great traveling and sweet music wafting through the night air. The forecast shows exciting performances from lovelorn chill bands, noise rock, trappy uhntz-uhntz, cool-kid dance beats, and a few flurries of funk. There’s…
So the Super Bowl turned 47. And as we all know, the Baltimore Ravens beat the San Francisco 49ers in a surprisingly hectic second-half, Beyonce reunited with her Destiny’s Child homies, and the game stopped for a full 34 minutes when half of the stadium’s the power mysteriously went out…
Congratulations, you’ve made it through one more hellish week of commute, lunch breaks, anxiety, and that stupid bitch who sits next to you. You deserve a prize for putting up with that place. What’s the prize? All the alcohol your hard-earned money can buy. And hopefully, some dirty-dirty, either with…
Well, it finally happened. Tickets for weekend two of Ultra Music Festival 2013 have officially sold out. That means the possibility of a trip to Miami’s annual dance mecca is quickly slipping out of your slow-grabby reach. Yes, you still have a shot at purchasing weekend one tickets or six-day…
HeRobust The Stage, Miami Wednesday, January 30, 2013 Better Than: Having some sick trap artist in from Atlanta, only to watch him leave. Miami crowds are famous for their love of House music, and moombahton is quickly becoming all the rage, but it wouldn’t be fair to say Miami hasn’t…
Oh! Bingo! Bingo! Bingo! If we take a closer look at your card, we see that in fact, yes, Bingo Players are coming to LIV for one helluva raucous set packed with electro, trap, electro, house, and definitely some more electro. These Dutchmen — Paul Bäumer and Maarten Hoogstraten –…
Lady Gaga used to have it all. She had the most Twitter followers in the world. She had number-one single after number-one single. And she had a legion of obsessively adoring fans at her every beck and call. Well, she probably still has those Little Monsters. But in a lot…
We’re almost done with the week, and we’re almost done with the first month of 2013. How much have you gotten done so far? Alright, forget that question. How much have you partied so far? Not enough, right? Cool … Well, there’s loads of great music coming ’round the bend…
Infected Mushroom’s Fungusamongus Tour at Club Cinema February 2
The XX at Fillmore Miami Beach February 5
American kids are really crazy. We don’t party like the rest of them, because we party way harder. “Especially now in the States, ’cause electronic music is blowing up like huge! And these kids go nuts about electronic music. So we’re just trying to create a concept with everybody like,…
