Well.. I wasn't planning on having to play on the beach in 2003- but from what I'm seeing....maybe I might have to do a couple venues in FL before traveling to create some DT community presence. As far as the Marlin goes, I don't think I could hang there for an ENTIRE evening [not enough room to dance]- I'd almost rather drive my tall arse to Boca for Sheldon and Vaughan on the patio at Radius late night. I guess I'll actually have to go cocktail style [have to find the invite] . I was hoping there would be something more going down on the beach.

A little bossa for NYE? Where do fellow loungers go for NYE in S. Florida? I'm looking for some downtempo groove and some deep house...

They've been shooting Bad Boys II and Fast and the Furious II.

koky_ does mercury lounge bring in other djs? i've only been there once but the music was enough to make me not want to return.

Who's spinning this Saturday? p.s. lust4house.com is down.

I will definitely have to check it out. although i think the inside of pearl is quite the napp... too dirty. hopefully you're just referring to the design. _

There is so much to reply to. First off: the whole "WMC moves to Las Vegas" idea - Naner. FACT: The only thing that they have actually been considering is doing a hiphop conference in NY... Secondly: Although Miami has been trying to live up to the Wild On! episode exploitation, it will never be what it once was- because at this point it is too saturated in hype. On occassion you can catch a really good show, but sobe- just like anyplace else- knows where the money is- and it's with commercial/mainstream music. That is a main reason why trance has taken over the beach for so long. Now that we have infomercials for Chillout on at 3am, maybe we'll see a shift. If you ask anyone who really is into music, they will usually tell you that they prefer house parties and private venues because the big clubs don't appeal to them. Most true aficianados stay home or hit the smaller venues. And finally: Ft. Lauderdale has always been the land of the foot-draggers. It's not a posh or fashionable scene. Most guys are there to get drunk and possibly hook up with the girl who can't keep her skirt on. There are not many discerning ears in these clubs. [Really though, to create a real vibe there all it would really take is one large club to stick to their guns, get some real talent- and actually KNOW how to PROMOTE] Even so, it would take a lot to push all the mullets and yo-dogs out of Ft. Liquordale. Every time I go to Ft.Lauderdale to try and hang out I am reminded of how much I do not belong there. If you have an affinity for music then it is not an avenue to go down. I really hope that some of these clubs DO start playing better tunes, it's a short drive. To even SAY that Ft.Lauderdale is going to take Miami over is quite a bold statement and one that I shall not touch.

What are the aesthetics like @ Bulldog?

well. if geoff's going then we must. See you there.

...this very moment? Best of Cookin [2 cd] my demo [Pacific Blends] Ryan Lane CD Terron Darby [deep this...] Moving Shadow [98.1] Atjazz The Rurals K+D Sessions CD 2 Best of James Brown Miles Davis [some Kind of Blue]

Yeah, you would definitely be late for work. It went rather well, and I got to meet a lot of really down to earth ppl, although its frustrating when ppl are trying to talk to you i nthe middle of your mix and you're trying not to be rude...ahem. There's another party this Saturday being thrown by hoochieproductions (www.hoochieproductions.com) at the AKA Lounge on Pine St. upstairs. should go off. It used to be an old dance studio so it not only has great acoustics, but also a great old skool wooden dance floor. oh yeah.

TONIGHT @ SKY60

okay, sounds good. i'll be in town in a little over a week. we could meet up then. do you have a link to the kind of stuff you two do?

I spin everything from downtempo, acid jazz, brazil electro, lounge, deep house, experimental hiphop, dub.... you name it. and even some james brown up in there../

I'm looking for some people that truly feel the groove to hit me back with some info about the local dj circuit. I'm leaning towards a migration, and am checking out the prospects. I'm interested in meeting some people that share my love and are making headway. Maybe a note on who to contact before I go down south in order to get bookings.

Yeah, BMF throws down for sure. He's still at Phat-n-Jazzy on Tuesdays, when they connect it with upstairs (SKY60). The crowd isn't the same at PnJ, though. I got hooked the day I listened to Boneshakers....that was it.
