Gigtat Lets Ultra Attendees Tattoo Set Times Anywhere on Their Bodies

By Ryan Yousefi
Mar 10, 2017

Imagine yourself tilted at a music festival this summer. It's pouring, your cell service is spotty, and hours ago you let some dude with cool hair use your set sheet as a rolling paper. Now what? Easy. You stare at your forearm for a couple of seconds, point to the main stage, and elbow your way there. The who, what, when, and where are all right there on your skin, because you tattooed the entire festival lineup on your body at home.

By Ryan Pfeffer
Nov 17, 2016

Ultra Miami unrolled its Phase One lineup today, and in addition to the usual players, it's got some pleasant and unexpected surprises — especially when it comes to the live acts.

Music Journalist Says Ultra Host Damian Pinto Harassed Her for Voting Hillary

By Ryan Pfeffer
Nov 8, 2016

Valerie Lee and a co-worker were backstage at Orlando's Electric Daisy Carnival last weekend taking a much-needed breather when a man abruptly walked in and demanded to know whether they'd voted for Hillary Clinton. Lee, the U.S. digital editor for Mixmag, nodded and turned back to her conversation, but...

Ultra Is Turning One of Its Most Popular Stages Into Its Own Festival

By Angel Melendez
Sep 14, 2016

Back in March, one of our favorite stages of Ultra Music Festival was the Resistance stage. We gushed over the giant terrifying spider and its unique "DJ booth.” It was part DJ set, part performance art equipped with its own choreographed show — weird in the best way possible. But even...
Ten Unforgivable Concert Crimes

By Angel Melendez
Aug 18, 2016

Concerts and festivals aren’t cheap. Sure, the base cost might be $15 or $20, but that’s before legal Mafia and entertainment oil barons — AKA Ticketmaster — adds on their ridiculous fees service fees (Really? a $66 fart insurance fee?). Then there’s the cost of transportation, food, drinks, hotels, etc...
Ten Tips for How to Have the Best Coachella, From a Guy Who's Been to More Festivals Than You

By Tucker Gumber
Apr 14, 2016

[Tucker Gumber, aka "The Festival Guy," has been to over 90 festivals and written a book, Festival Thrower's Bible, about how to make them an optimal experience. He is also the creator of the FestEvo festival resource app for fans. Ahead of Coachella, L.A. Weekly asked him to share some of...
Watch Miami Bands Hit the Stage at SXSW 2016

By Ryan Pfeffer and Monica McGivern
Mar 29, 2016

Though many blamed an abnormally slow and under-attended Miami Music Week on the fact that it overlapped with South by Southwest, the Austin music conference wasn't all bad news for the Miami music scene. As we saw ourselves, many bands made the journey west to participate in SXSW, giving the...
Watch the Rolling Stones Play Their First Cuba Concert

By Dyllan Furness
Mar 28, 2016

President Obama traveled to Cuba last Wednesday in an historic effort to restore diplomatic relations with our communist neighbor. But Obama wasn’t the only high-profile figure to visit the island that week. On Friday, the Rolling Stones rocked some 450,000 (or 500,000 or 700,000, depending on who you ask) people...
The Music Snob in Me Was Wrong About Ultra 2016

By Zach Schlein
Mar 25, 2016

“You complete me!” When most hear this bold, tiptoeing-dangerously-on-the-edge-of-creepy declaration of love, the first thing that comes to mind is that when Tom Cruise steps up to the plate (get it, because baseball?) and tells Renee Zellweger how he really feels about her in the Cameron Crowe classic Jerry Maguire...
Ultra 2016 Shows Us That Sexual Harassment and Assault Are Still Very Real Issues at Music Festivals

By Ryan Pfeffer
Mar 24, 2016

Of all the things I saw at Ultra this year — which included a man in a Hillary Clinton mask, a 50-ton fire-spewing spider, and Porta-Potties that were 87 percent urine — this was the most disturbing: I was walking up the path to the Live Stage behind a couple...
Video: Debauchery and Mayhem Outside the Gates of Ultra 2016

By Kat Bein
Mar 23, 2016

There is perhaps no better people-watching spot than outside the main gates of Ultra Music Festival. Trust us. The fashion, the megaphone-wielding Jesus-preachers — this more entertaining than any Oscar-winning film in the last decade. For the 18th annual Ultra Music Festival, we once again hit the streets with New...
DJ Jubilee on Why Peachfuzz Is Still Her Favorite Party in Miami

By Alexandra Martinez
Mar 23, 2016

When DJ Jubilee visits her hometown (Miami) there are a few spots she needs to hit up. She'll go to "that weird Biscayne beach", to her "homie" Otto von Schirach's sets, but most importantly, to Miami's best hip-hop party, Peachfuzz. Peachfuzz, known around these parts as your girl's favorite party,...
If Our Generation Doesn't Learn How to Use Earplugs at Concerts, We'll Pay for It Later

By Jose D. Duran
Mar 23, 2016

Tucked in the northeast corner of Ultra Music Festival near the UMF Radio stage, dozens are unabashedly grabbing condoms courtesy of the Florida Department of Health. Most pick up the flavored ones that come in pineapple and strawberry varieties, and there the confident few who grab the Magnum XL's. (Just...
Grouplove Plays First Concert in More Than a Year at Fontainebleau

By Jesse Richman
Mar 23, 2016

It's been almost a year and a half since mainstream-indie-rock band Grouplove played its last live set — more than two-and-a-half since its sprawling second album, Spreading Rumours, was released. That extended break might not have been the outfit's original plan, but for vocalists Hannah Hooper and Christian Zucconi, there...
Why Were the '90s Making a Comeback at Ultra Miami 2016?

By Angel Melendez
Mar 22, 2016

When Prince decided to party like it was 1999, little did he, or anyone else for that matter, understand the significance of the year. For the purposes of his song, it was the end of the century and thus a reason to celebrate. However, for electronic dance music, it was...

By Juan Ant. Bisono

The two sisters known as Nervo are the world's foremost female EDM personalities, reaching mainstream success as producers and pop acts.

DJ Pierre, the Father of Acid House, on Birthing a Genre

By Sean Levisman
Mar 22, 2016

Today's young millennials weaned on a lifetime of electronic music can hardly imagine how futuristic and positively alien acid house first sounded to listeners in the '80s. In contrast to the mostly pop and disco-based dance music of the time, the hypnotic, hard-hitting machine beats and trippy synthetic bass squelches...
South Beach's Ora Hopes to Take the Miami Nightclub Out of Its Rebellious Teenage Years

By David Rolland
Mar 22, 2016

I saw there was a niche missing in Miami nightlife for a true VIP experience in an elegant setting among a refined crowd," Ryan Van Milligan explains. He and his partners plan to open South Beach nightclub Ora later this spring. Van Milligan worked with Opium Group at clubs such...

By Elvis Anderson
Mar 21, 2016

There was music for every appetite over this past weekend. While downtown was the neon scene for Ultra Music Festival, Sun Life Stadium offered a change of pace with the 11th edition of Jazz in the Gardens. The Miami Gardens festival offered food alongside jazz, gospel, funk, rock, and R&B...
A Celebration of Male Friendship, AKA the Bromance, at Ultra Miami

By Ryan Pfeffer
Mar 21, 2016

When was the last time you told your bro you loved him? Seriously. When was the last time you looked into his eyes, placed a hand gently on his quadricep, and said, "Hey man, I really care about you." Male friendship is a complicated phenomenon. Taught from birth to internalize our...
The Winners and Losers of Ultra Miami 2016

By Ryan Pfeffer and Angel Melendez
Mar 21, 2016

With Ultra 2016 in the history books, it's time to look back at just who exactly came out on top, and who walked away from Bayfront Park with nothing but regret and a T-shirt soaked in other people's bodily fluids. This year, like every year, we end the weekend with...
Ultra Miami 2016, Day Three: Pendulum and Rabbit in the Moon Reunite, and It Feels So Good

By Ryan Pfeffer, Angel Melendez, Jose D. Duran and Kat Bein
Mar 21, 2016

Well, it's over. In the end, Ultra 2016 saw little rain, great performances, and — save for the Prodigy's last-minute cancellation — minimal hiccups. At 18 years of age, Ultra has matured into a well-oiled festival, running smoothly from the Porta Potty to the Main Stage. Yesterday, the third and...
