It’s that time again — Bar will be showcasing a new look starting tonight. Above is a teaser photo Bar’s general manager Raul Sanchez tweeted last night. This time it’s Chicago artist Cody Hudson who will be plastering Bar’s wall with his own aesthetic. The exhibition is being dubbed “Will…
Good news for all of you Bella Rose fans out there: Keith Paciello has become a full partner at Rokbar on South Beach. Expect the same laidback, anything-goes experience now that Paciello has taken over creative control at the Collins Avenue watering hole.Paciello, for those of you who may not…
–The Miami Heat’s all-star DJ, DJ Irie, recently received a commendation from the City Of Miami, praising his hard work for the community and various charitable efforts. Irie is currently awaiting the upcoming 2010-2011 Miami Heat season to begin where he’ll be the DJ again for all the home games…
In the early ’50s, visionary electronic music pioneer Dr. Robert Moog and his Moog Music company would forever change the landscape of popular music by developing the first music synthesizers. Early on, Moog’s technology would be championed by a few select experimental musicians, mainly ’70s prog rockers like Keith Emerson…
I love Sasha Grey. Not in the creepy guy-who-stalks-porn-stars kind of way. I truly think she’s becoming a post-modern feminist icon. Some may disagree because pornography is often considered inherently misogynistic. But I’m not always sure Grey does porn because she wants to get men off, as much as she…
It seems like anyone with any sort of vocal ability is launching some sort of clothing line lately (hello, Madonna). But Iggy Pop’s new designer/clothing collaboration, of course, hits closer to home.He’s teamed up with Barney’s and Archive 1887 tees for a line of Iggy-full swag sure to make any…
Yes, you read that right. Suenalo and Lanzallamas Monofonica are going to be laying down the nasty on the same stage at Transit Lounge tomorrow night. How the hell is that stage going to handle so much energy? Good question.How’s Transit going to contain the over the top descarga that’s…
No, this isn’t the Latina La Roux, though admittedly her hair is funky and awesome. Karina Iglesias is a local girl. She’s sultry, smooth and soulful. And though she may not be what first comes to mind when you think of Miami’s live music scene, perhaps she too should have…
Okay, so we don’t think independent record stores in South Florida are going anywhere — hello, Sweatstock, Record Store Day — but that doesn’t mean they’re thriving everywhere else in the country. That’s what I Need That Record: The Death or Possible Survival of the Independent Record Store is out there…
Fat Joe’s new, 10th studio album, Darkside, Vol. 1, dropped just two days ago, but is already expected to debut in the Billboard 200. Why all the sales fuss over Jose’s latest? Well, it’s a return to his old, street-level form — a 180 from the continued attempts at pop…
By now, anybody who knows me knows how much I love the titties, so much so that I generally waste away many a sentence with the beautiful English expression, “Ain’t that the tits!” That said, I’m gonna go ahead and lend my full support to Antisteez.com’s editrix Goobs and her…
It wasn’t long ago that Toronto duo AutoErotique was known as VNDLSM, which closely resemble the name of another vowel-less Toronto DJ/producer duo. Perhaps it was because they signed to the Dim Mak label — also home to that other vowel-less Toronto DJ/producer duo — that the pair changed their…
The latest musician – turning – movie star is Rihanna. As soon as she finishes her Last Girl On Earth Tour, which lands in Miami this Saturday at the American Airlines Arena, she’s set to star in director Peter Berg’s (Hancock) film adaptation of that game we all loved as a kid: Battleship…
Make no mistake, Rick Ross’ Teflon Don is selling pretty briskly for a rap album that makes few pop concessions — especially in the dismal 2010 buying climate. But last week, the first of the album’s release, it seemed that Ricky Rozay might be able to knock Eminem’s Recovery out…
Another Wednesday in the summer, another $10 Live Nation ticket deal. The bad news: This deal only adds one concert to the list of shows that were discounted last week. The good news: If you still have a kid who wants to see Jonas Brothers, now’s your chance — again. Just…
The ongoing kickass series brought to you by the venerable SoBe live music haunt Jazid and MiamiAlterLatino.com continues to roll on, providing partygoers with a weekly passport to far off destinations.If you’ve been keeping track, you know that since tomorrow’s the last Thursday of the month, it’s time for Brazilian…
All Tomorrow’s Parties — or rather, the American spinoff of the original English festival — may get a little less hype than the other blockbuster summer festivals in this country, but it’s one of the best going. That’s because rather than just splatter the latest hype bands across a bunch…
We’ve all been there: There’s a really cool music documentary that’s just been released, and it’s not showing anywhere in Miami — or worse, it’s only being screened one day and at one time, which aren’t really convenient. Luckily, this time around the Internet’s making real-life geography irrelevant.Recently we’ve seen…
Kristopher Huseby of Fireside Social fame is probably one of the better drummers we have down here, and it turns out he can pluck the bass and sing pretty well to boot. Enter Bulletproof Tiger, his latest, excellent project. The band just released its debut EP, Starving Hearts, which upholds…
Surfer Blood, if you are going to vow never to play a venue again, you might want to stick to your word — otherwise someone’s going to call you out.Let us rehash the night that Surfer Blood played Poplife’s 11th anniversary party at Grand Central. The band members felt they…
Radioboxer, the Readers’ Choice winner for Best Band in New Times’ 2009 Best of Miami issue, is now up for national recognition. I, for one, feel it’s about time — and you can help the fivesome along by voting for them in the current Dame Un Break contest sponsored by…
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…
