On the List - Miami Beach Keeps Things Going

Thu May 15, 2008 at 08:59:06 AM

Things aren’t slowing down just yet. In fact this weekend might just be one of the most exciting ones yet. As much as I hate to admit it, Miami Beach seems to be keeping things strong as we head into the summer. Don’t worry, I secretly still prefer the Downtown scene.

Tonight, hometown hero Lazaro Casanova stops by Dream (1532 Washington Ave., Miami Beach) to bring his signature electro-house, which is slowly making him a superstar DJ the world over. Casanova first got his start spinning at the now-defunct Revolver party, but it wasn’t until Toronto DJ duo MSTRKRFT took him under his wing that he garnered enough exposure to create a buzz. Trust me when I say, check him out tonight before this kid gets too big.

For those smart enough to realize South Beach door policy is a joke, head over to Buck 15 (707 Lincoln Lane, Miami Beach) Friday, where you will only be bothered if you aren’t having a good time. DJ Ryan Evans (Revolver/Pawn Shop) spins the best mix of rock classics, indie favorites and everything in between. And unlike the rest of the Beach, the drink prices won’t leave you broke.

On the List - Gervais, Wynwood and Chocolate Sundays

Thu May 08, 2008 at 09:24:00 AM

The dilemma of what to do this weekend always gets to people. No worries I always have your back – just follow my advice closely and you’ll be fine. And with a packed weekend of Cedric Gervais, DJ Funk and Bronques, I guarantee you this weekend will be one for the books.

The area on Washington Avenue, between 8th and 5th Streets, is finally catching up to the rest of the strip. Gorgeous lounges and clubs have replaced the area’s notorious seedy (and not in a good way) clubs, and we have Dek23 (655 Washington Ave., Miami Beach) to thank for that. Check out the space tonight for Basic Thursdays when perhaps one of Miami’s best DJs, Ross One, stops by to do a special guest set.

On The List - Love Hate, Mark Knight and Studio A

Thu May 01, 2008 at 08:45:00 AM

Is it just me or does it seem like this week feels like its never going to end? The hours seem to going by painfully slow. Well the weekend is only a day away, but starting tonight there is already plenty to do.

If you haven’t been, you must check out Love Hate Lounge (432 Washington Ave., Miami Beach) during their newest Thursday night party Apt. 423. The name probably seems familiar because it’s the same Apt. 407 party formerly at Abraxas Lounge (407 Meridian Ave., Miami Beach). The party attracts a cool mix of South Beach locals, mainland crawlers, tourists and hipsters; an odd combination to say the least. Tonight features a guest spot by Sweat Records owner Lolo, along with Ray Milian and friends.

On The List - Baile Funk, Boris, and Bamby

Thu Apr 24, 2008 at 08:39:02 AM

The weekend is here and everyone knows what that means – time to get so obliterated you wake up with your face down in a gutter. Er, um, I’m not talking from experience – I swear. Anyway, with so many things to do in clubland this week, where to start?

After catching the newly transformed Brazilian quartet Bonde Do Role at Studio A on Thursday night, head on over to The Vagabond (30 NE 14th St., Miami) for its weekly Money Shot party. This week DJ Elle (Turntable Lab/NYC) stops by to take a turn on the decks. The party is free before midnight or with a wristband from the aforementioned show.

Friday, DJ Boris starts his monthly residency at Parkwest (30 NE 11th St., Miami) bringing with him his signature New York City sound. And if you haven’t been to Louis Puig’s newest venue, it’s definitely worth the trip. After starting out strong back in December with its Friday night Stereo party, the venue ran into a little snafu after it was discovered it was operating without a proper liquor license and consequentially shut down. The place reopened just in time for this year’s Winter Music Conference and re-launched its Stereo party shortly there after.
