For those in the know, the Red Bull Guest House (aka the Dream South Beach Hotel on every other week of the year) was a WMC hot spot this year for catching marquee talents in an intimate setting populated by sunbathing models and A-list onlookers. With eye-opening lineups featuring the likes and labels of Skrillex, A-Trak, and Boys Noize, the poolside performance spot mostly catered to more new-school genres like electro, dubstep and trap over the course of the past week. Carl Craig teaches old school techno to a brave new Miami at Boiler Room WMC [...]
"What we do every year in Miami for Ultra week has become sort of an EDM happening of its own," says Pournouri. "Every year we try to break boundaries and do it bigger and better and this year's no different." In 2011, shuttle buses emblazoned with Avicii's name and likeness shuttled partiers to and from the Ultra Music Festival site. In 2012, Avicii ice cream trucks drove the streets of South Beach, delivering some refreshing sweetness to the fans and industry-ites who crowded the city. In that same time period, Avicii went from afternoon attraction to [...]

Every city has it's signature style, and Miami vibes on bronzed hard-bodies strutting beautiful beaches, opulent clubs where you can literally lose your mind and all of your cash in a single night, and insane drivers who think their cars are worth more than your life.

Especially when this fun-filled, speed-demon lifestyle is turned to ULTIMATE HI-DEF one week out of every year for Winter Music Conference and Ultra Music Festival. As long-time DJ and producer Joachim Garraud put it in his charming French accent: "Everyone in Miami is making party all [...]

I'll admit, I'm not familiar with the original track, but every time I see something new from Amtrac, I know it's going to be sick. "New Life" has a more chilled out vibe, and I imagine the song being played at some swanky cocktail party somewhere. Order your bottle service, sit around a table at [...]

by Marina Garcia-Vasquez [Editor's Note: Quiet Color is extremely to have Marina Garcia-Vasquez reporting on Art Basel from Miami] Let's be honest, I traveled to Miami to support my New York art friends. Art Basel and all the beloved art fairs and exhibits that cuddle South Beach, downtown, and Miami's design district make the non-stop canoodling, gawking, and hob-knobbing worthwhile. My first stop was to congratulate sculptor friend Julia Chiang at [...]

Ahh.. Miami ! While many of you were shoveling snow this past weekend, I was shoveling alcohol down my throat. While you were trudging through slushy, dirty, ice cold, sidewalks, I was dealing with snow white beaches and letting sunshine bounce off my snow white chest. Yes, Miami was pretty nuts. I tipped a bottle of Grey Goose to T-Pain @ Tootsies - the largest strip club in southern Florida. I was kicking game to 2 Dominican twins on South Beach with literally, the best asses I've ever seen in my life (The [...]
