any electro and/or floors that come alive in soFL?

[Guest computerjockey]

hey guys - just moved back from NYC after 10 years and totally missed the passion Florida peeps had for their music. Got into electro while I was up there and was wondering if any clubs in Miami play any or if there are any floors that just seem to come alive. Would like a mixed crowd if possible and wanna stay away from any deep house and/or tribal too.

THANKS FOR THE HINTS!!!

Let's get ready to rumble.

[Guest 4040]

In the blue corner we have deep house wieghing $1.25 and in the red corner we have electro $1.10. LLLLLLLets get ready to rumble!

[Guest coach]

"Mixed" crowd? You better define that, in case it means something different here.

[Guest Major]

Miami is a Techno Town. What's the definition of Electro? What is the meaning of Electro?

[Guest pod]

Well, like I've been saying in other threads throughout the week (wow, for some reason it got busy on that tack...), Miami really doesn't tend to follow specific musical trends in it's club scene, since overall, Miami is not a music town per se. It's a party town where music is one part of the puzzle. We've got a crop of talented DJs and producers here that provide decent soundtracks, thankfully.

Dance music-wise the big clubs (Space, Cameo, Twilo) will generally be playing whatever sound works best for them at any given moment. At Space, you'll get OG and Cedric integrating electro-house tracks into their sets, but not as a staple of the evening, like you would find in a (I guess?) Felix da Housecat set. Or are you talking electro like Dynamix II? DII plays one-off events around here often. But anyway, Cameo will tend to be more commercial dance music, and Twilo tends to go more darker and tribal-ish with the likes of Victor Calderone, Abel, etc.

But on a daily basis, if you're really looking for the more obscure genres, you'll have to go to the more out of the way venues. Grant it, the facilities are often less than ideal, but those are the breaks. It's the same in New York, so you're probably used to it.

no in New York you have Cielo.

[Guest pod]

Did they hire you for PR or something? ;D

Cielo's fantastic, I'll grant you, but is it really the do-all-end all? I've only been like two or three times, and it was for shows that I was into. I don't follow their lineup enough to pass judgement on whether it is truly the do-all-end-all.

But nonetheless, until computerjockey clarifies the issue a bit, it's kinda hard to tell him where he'd be at home.

they might as well put me on their PR

no deep house??? u are now my sworn enemy ;D

[BobbyTrendy]

okay everyone be nice to computerjockey.. i sent him over here from CP since he posts in CP NY - and obviously CP miami is a ghost town.

mixed crowd - i believe he's looking for a non-gay or non-straight party - just a good ol' fashioned party where no one cares your sexual orientation.. .

[Guest Cosmigonon]

Oh, if he's friends with Lolaaaaaa then he's cool... 8)

[Guest pod]

Heh OK, we'll call off the dogs. I saw him posting on there, didn't want to say anything though, I saw some other stuff that made me want to get into a fight, and I'm trying not to fight these days.

But anyhow, yeah most parties here are mixed actually, to the extent that at any given party, you'll see a variety of people. Sometimes a party will bias towards some sect or another, but if there's one thing Miami has is a good mix of a crowd at some parties.

[Guest betamaxDJ]

Starting Friday the 27th Glass Room @ Nocturnal 10-5 will have what you are looking for.

A+ way to break this town down

[Guest pod]

Kind of out on a limb here since he hasn't answered what he means by electro. Does he mean the real stuff like Dynamix II, etc? Or electro-house as purveyed by Felix, and to a lesser extent, OG and Cedric integrating that sound into their sets...

[Guest myles hie]

He prolly means the flavor of the month big room electro house.

[BobbyTrendy]

i'm sure he's talking real electro, not the flavor of the month big room electro.. he knows his music guys...

i'm sure he'll be back and elaborate as to what he wants...

[Guest pod]

He's from New York, and as we all know, that automatically confers musical knowledge at the genetic level. Kind of like how Ripley remembered everything prior to Alien:Resurrection when she was cloned. Despite dying in Alien³ in a blaze of glory and all.
