MiamiNights - Miami Night Clubs, Nightlife

I was going to post this yesterday, but my fingers couldn't bare to put the letters W, M and C together one after the other. But I always like to give my opinion on things, so it wouldn't be me if I didn't tell you how wrong you are and how right I am. So without further ado, here are my picks for the best, worst and the just plain awful at WMC.

Best Party Fixed WMC Freakout @ Studio A

I would have given this to the Fool's Gold party at White Room except their sound system sucked. Still, the lineup Saturday at Studio A was superb and the fact that the venue had a wall of speakers to basically punched you in the face was just an added bonus. Boys Noize definitely was the star that night, but Simian Mobile Disco and Erol Alkan also brought it home.

Worst Party Any Beach Nighttime Events

All I heard was tales of woe from people who attended beach events. Rude door staff, super-expensive drinks and horrendous traffic killed the party mood for many. I'm tired of telling everyone Downtown is where it's at.

Biggest Surprise Fool's Gold Showcase Lineup

The published lineup was just a tease of who would show up to spin at White Room. Others who stopped by included Boys Noize, MSTRKRFT, Tommie Sunshine, Chromeo and from what I hear Groove Armada as well. There were reports that Justice was going to show up as well, but not sure if that ever materialized.

Most Underrated Drop The Lime

This guy is pretty fucking amazing. He blew me away at Downtown Riot, but really hit it out of the park at the South Seas pool party and the Scion event at the Raleigh. Definitely check him out!

Most Overrated Ultra Music Festival

I don't think I need to explain myself.

Breakthrough Calvin Harris

Mark my words, this guy will be big in the states in 2008. His performances during WMC only cemented that. I wonder if he is going to do a North American tour soon?

Most Overexposed MSTRKRFT

I would have given this to Boys Noize, but a lot of people really didn't care how many times he performed, they wanted to see him spin each and every time. However, with no new material released since 2006's The Looks, MSTRKRFT still managed to be everywhere during WMC. Really now? Actually they have a newly released track on iTunes called "Bounce" featuring N.O.R.E. which I'm not sure how I feel about.
