Rachel Goodrich’s Miami Homecoming Show at the Stage March 25
It’s only been about three months since beloved local quirk-pop queen Rachel Goodrich left you, me, and the Magic City for the big, bright floodlights of La La Land. And already we miss her so much. We watched helplessly as Rachel picked out her favorite records, stuffed her suitcase, and…

A Quick Guide to Betting on the 2011 Beatport Music Awards
Go ahead and call us degenerate gamblers. But we here at Crossfade are hardly alone in the belief that life is infinitely less boring when you’re betting on it. Whether the action is competitive vodka-guzzling, the Westminster Kennel Club dog show, or the arrival patterns of Miami-Dade County public transportation,…
Join Wanderlust’s Beer-Drinking Yogis for Kirtan Tunes at the Standard March 17 to 20
If you’re a bloated, bender-prone slob (like, um, Crossfade) who spends almost every waking hour swilling booze and stinking it up in the dive-iest of dive bars, maybe it’s time for a rejuvenating yoga- and music-filled weekend detox with the Wanderlust Festival. Don’t worry, though … It’s not like you’re…
Oscar G, Peter Rauhofer, and Others at Nervous Records’ Pool Party at the Clevelander March 27

Ecstasy! Mace! And More! Crossfade’s Ultra Music Festival Survival Kit
There’s this shared fantasy among neo-hippies, blissed-out druggies, and naïve first-time festival-goers that three-day music extravaganzas like Ultra Music Festival are all about fun and friendship. But here’s the real deal: The music festival experience is an arduous and often dangerous 72-hour trip into a deep, dance-y heart of darkness…
Conga Lines and Puerto Rican Chicas: Photos From the Throng at Calle Ocho 2011
Like most of Dade County, Crossfade spent Sunday among the million-strong throng at Calle Ocho. We got sunburned, stupid drunk, and totally soaked in the sweat of random strangers. It was awesome. But today, we’re kinda bummed. As we said in our earlier missive to the Ocho nation: “Perfectly greasy…
The Diabolical Bobby Brown on New Edition, Jazz in the Gardens, and Gettin’ Nasty at 42
Right now, if we were to play a game of pop-culture free association beginning with the ever-infamous name Bobby Brown, our minds would probably wander off in the following direction: Whitney Houston, cocaine, reality TV. However, there was a time, circa 1989 (an era of Brown’s life also known as…

Langerado Music Festival Returns to South Florida October 8 and 9
It’s now been two years and one month since venue problems, “sluggish ticket sales,” and the general shittiness of the U.S. economy sank the Langerado Music Festival. But now, the fest is back. Mere minutes ago, Crossfade received notice from Fresh Clean Media that “the wait is officially over.” And…

Oily Egyptian Princes and Blue-Haired Drag Queens at Winter Party Beach Party
See the 25-photo Winter Party Beach Party slideshow.Is there any better way to spend a debaucherous Sunday than partying half-naked on the white sands of South Beach with 5,000 oily Egyptian princes, tough babes in bikinis, skater boys with boyfriends, tatted-up riot raver chicks, and blue-haired drag queens? Yesterday, the…
Take the Nine Mile Trek to Marley Fest at Bayfront Park This Saturday
Hidden in the rolling, bright-green Dry Harbour Mountains of St. Ann Parish on Jamaica’s north coast, there’s a tiny rural village called Nine Mile. You will find it by following the narrow road from Brown’s Town and counting down the mile markers till you reach one less than ten. Just…
Ten Crossfade-Approved Parties for the Second Week of Winter Music Conference 2011
The human body is an amazing biological machine. You can try your best to irreversibly damage its every last cell by subjecting it to a sleepless six-day WMC spree of ass-pounding party music, 36-hour dancing blackouts, and a diet consisting of Red Bull, vodka, and miscellaneous pharmacological products.
