Nineteen Dead After Love Parade Stampede

It seems like the curse plaguing electronic music events took a vacation overseas to cause mayhem over at Germany’s Love Parade this weekend where 19 were killed after a stampede at the entrance of the event. Again, like Electric Daisy Carnival, organizers failed to provide adequate security and space for…

Sigmund Floyd, In the Pink at Van Dyke Tonight

You might well be one of a large constituency who’s already had in reserve your tickets to one of Roger Water’s two shows this November 13 and 14 at the BankAtlantic Center for a few months now. Hell, you might be one of those who’s diligently procured some sort of…

La Roux Shows at Both Culture Room and Mansion Are Canceled

It’s been a banner year for La Roux, who has gone from hipster favorite stateside to somewhat unlikely mainstream crossover. (Really — “Bulletproof” has been in heavy rotation on local pop station Y100 for a minute now.) Still, the whirlwind of touring and activity can wear on someone, and unfortunately,…

Q&A: 99 Jamz’s DJ Entice Has Clearly Already Won

Known for taking up your airwaves everyday at 5:00 PM for WEDR’s Drive At 5 mix, DJ Entice has been a South Florida mainstay for many years now. He caused a little bit of chaos a couple weeks ago when he exclusively premiered the unofficial, yet street-official Miami heat anthem…

Bachaco Plays Jazid This Saturday With Skampida

If you haven’t caught Bachaco live, you’re missing out. Sure, you might be following them on Twitter, or friends with them on Facebook. Or maybe you sit at work jamming to tracks off their Myspace page. But the fact is, very simply, if you aren’t catching them live, you are…

Breaking: Club Space Closing Indefinitely After Labor Day Weekend

Club Space will close its doors after Labor Day Weekend for renovations. The   infamous land of early – morning fist – pumping will be using the holiday weekend to host two “Closing Parties” before an indefinite hiatus. Space’s web site announced the closing with a newspaper-style statement, claiming the temporary closing…

Juanes Join Harmonix’s Pantheon of Hard-Rocking Badasses

Well, it seems that Miami’s most famous Colombian resident is once again making waves, and this time it has nothing to do with heated debate over Juanes’ well-meaning Peace Without Borders concert in Cuba (which didn’t go quite as planned). It’s not even about the release of his upcoming and…

Cat Shell Performs at Jada Coles Tomorrow Night

​The 28-year-old chanteuse Cat Shell had it right when she titled her debut album Cat’s Outta The Bag. Anyone who’s heard or seen her is no doubt in on it. Sure, Cat’s a true beauty, with all-American, girl next door good looks (if you happen to be a lucky neighbor)…

Photos: Rick Ross Teflon Don Signing at Pembroke Pines Best Buy

Rick Ross fans turned out in droves to the Best Buy in Pembroke Pines Tuesday afternoon to get their copies of Teflon Don signed by the Don himself. The highly anticipated album hit stores Tuesday morning and was met by positive reviews and tons of celebrity endorsement. Despite the unyielding heat, hundreds…

DJ Kane, Live at Transit Lounge, This Saturday

There was a time, in the not so distant past, that you would’ve turned the radio dial to just about any Latin station, east or left coast, and would have heard DJ Kane’s voice. That’s because he, along with Frankie J (then Cisco), were the lead vocalists for the group known…

Deer Tick

Any attempt at narrowing down the sound of the Providence, Rhode Island-based quartet Deer Tick ultimately comes up short. The fact that the foursome often falls back on an alt-country approach might enter the equation, but equally important are elements of punk, grunge, and, on occasion, unapologetic sentiment. Deer Tick’s…

Sharam

Washington, D.C.’s Grammy Award-winning production duo Deep Dish enjoyed unparalleled international success during its late-’90s and early-’00s heyday. Much of the pair’s universal appeal could be attributed to the healthy stylistic balance between Ali “Dubfire” Shirazinia’s edgier experimental flair and Sharam Tayebi’s hit-making pop sensibility. It was a special combination…

Jacuzzi Boys

Jacuzzi Boys are quickly gaining critical mass on the national circuit, yet they’ve cleverly avoided the hype-overload of certain other South Florida breakout-acts-come-lately. The Boys attract only goodwill, no haterade, and for good reason. One, they’ve been playing together long enough to deserve success. Two, their sound is roughed up…
