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…
— While Rick Ross’ album Teflon Don has definitely built up an insane amount of buzz over the past few months, the album was finally released this past Tuesday amidst a couple local festivities to help bring in Ross’ fourth major label effort. Even though the music industry in general…
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,…
Grateful Dead fans can now rejoice! Jerry Garcia is making it to the big screen. Well, sort of. The late Jerry Garcia that we’ve all heard of or grown up listening to will not make it to the big screen himself, for obvious reasons. Neither will the persona that we’ve…
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…
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…
