It’s Christmas time! Yeah, we’re all fucking excited. Or excited about fucking. We’re not sure what it is about the holiday spirit, but all that humbuggery really gets our gifts ready for the ho-ing. We stockpiled our apartment with mistletoe, and we’re not going to stop ordering takeout till we…
Pop gossip. Most of us want to believe that we’re too intelligent and cultured to be fascinated with such gutter-trash information, but the reality is we all love to sniff the dirty underwear of the stars. Whether it’s a child star blossoming into a full-fledged sex symbol, a battered woman…
We here at Crossfade imagine this was the conversation, which must have taken place on Deadmau5’s couch while cuddling adorable kitty cats. “Baaaaby, I want to go to Ultra this year,” said Katt Von D, all tatted and pretty and in some tank top. “But shnookums, Ultra Music Festival and…
OMG, you guys. Please shut up with all these awful statuses about “holy crap da Mayans” and “whatchu think gon’ happen tomorrow” and “evolved consciousness ftw” and “damn I better wear my sexy undies cause Ima fuck tonight end of world #swag.” We here at Crossfade gotta get drunk just…

Miami’s Top Albums, EPs, and Singles of 2012
Holy Fucking Ship!! The three-day activities and music schedule for the most massive EDM cruise was just released. And now our pants are a little heavier. There are some returning favorites, like A-Trak’s DJ lessons and Dillon Francis’s mini-golf tournament. There will be wet-dream back-to-back sets, an ’80s prom night,…
LeBron James is so #ballswag on the court, he can pop a molly and sweat it out like his first name was Trinidad. In fact, Trinidad James and King James have a lot in common. The rapper gives it up to them “hipster bitches.” The basketballer rides the Miami critical…
EDM was bigger and badder than ever this year. Lady Gaga went on tour with electro-wunderkind Zedd. Skrillex won three Grammys. Shit, even the American Music Awards created an EDM category. Of course, this also means a lot of garbage is being produced. But thankfully, there are still loads of…
There’s a loud, in-your-face sound coming out of Miami, making waves in clubs across America. It’s got a hip-hop lean and sometimes a tropical vibe. It’s dirty, sexy, and full of hype. It’s a raw sound, sought out by some of the biggest names in EDM. And it’s coming from…
If Crossfade were a superstar DJ, we wouldn’t perform a single show without four cases of cherry vanilla cola, two bottles of Black Label whisky, a picture of our mom, a pink umbrella, and a drumming monkey. That’s not even too bad. Just take a look at the ridiculous requests…
Wow, y’all. Another year has come and gone. But what do we have to show for it? Sure, we had a lot of fun. We discovered a lot of new, hopeful artists and said goodbye to a few favorites. But we also saw the rise of some terrible pop bullshit…
Spoiler alert: The world isn’t about to end. But that doesn’t mean we can’t drink like it will. At LIV, the club rats will saying goodbye to 2012 with almost a whole week of superstar DJs and an endless supply of champagne. If you party hard enough, just wait for…
The dance music scene is overrun with DJs ready to slam the floor and take no prisoners. But sometimes you want to simply relax, groove, and get into the party spirit with some cool beats. That’s where someone like Rich Medinas comes in. For more than a decade, the New…
While the rest of the country wallows in the dregs of winter, Miami lingers in a perpetually sunny summer day. And when every day is a beach day, you can get down to chilled-out island-tinged jams any damn time. That’s the sound Miami local and national upstart Cris Cab brings…
Chan Marshall, AKA Cat Power, has been rather unstable lately. When she came through town on her most recent tour, Cat had a full-on meltdown and it just made us feel really awkward watching her. Then she did that all over the country, releasing letters to us about how mean…
Ultra Music Festival is the best. We here in Miami are super spoiled to have it every year. But don’t you wish you could pick up and take that experience overseas? OMG, you totes can now! Experience the joy of UMF at a greater cost! It’s going to be just…
Another Art Basel Miami Beach week has come and gone. But while we definitely got our art on and loved every awesome musical act, we couldn’t stop staring at what all those fancy motherfuckers were wearing! What can we say, we here at Crossfade are somewhat shallow. So we headed…
“Stank pussy smellin’ like Cool Ranch Doritos!” That’s what all the hip cats were screaming at Bardot last night, ’cause Danny Brown was in the spot tearin’ it up on the carpet, among the people. The weed was in the air and the streets were representing for an intimate set…
Art Basel Miami Beach is officially in full swing. So even though we’ve already hit you with the ten best EDM parties and the fifteen best parties period … The awesome arty parties just won’t stop keep cropping up. And the best thing about these six? Some of them are…
Krewella at LIV December 12
Oh, Trina … Da Baddest Bitch has done it again. And by it, we here at Crossfade mean she accepted a bunch of money and then allegedly bailed on a job. Clearly, Trina is just a bossy chick who’s allotment of fucks ran out a good while ago. Now she…
