Winter Music Conference 2008
Written on 23 Mar 2008
WMC 07 *sigh* Many fond memories– Dancing on our balcony at the Sagamore Hotel on South Beach to Richie Hawtin, the king of minimal techno, at 2 in the afternoon in my pajamas….room service, sunrises, sunsets, pool parties, pina coladas, lap dances…
If you’re going this year, take a moment to relax (easier said than done during WMC) at the Standard Hotel and Spa. I highly recommend it– infinity pool, hot tub, sauna, massage, delicious organic meals, $65 pitchers of mojitos, and Miambient –“a chilled-out event aimed at awareness-raising and even holistic healing.” Last year, my friends Psylab played Miambient and it was one of my absolute highlights. It’s a very chill vibe. Even the most experienced party professional needs a Yang chaser to go with that generous dose of Yin.
Unfortunately, despite all my best efforts, I am unable to attend this year’s WMC in Sexy Miami. The best cure for seasonal depression is sunshine, electronic music, ocean breezes, bikinis, and dance floors galore. Instead, I’ll be getting my jollies researching and mid-term paper writing. Next year, for sure!
For those party peoples on their way this week, please please please don’t deny yourselves the chance to check out the unstoppable DJ Craig Mitchell. He’s performing at three events. And while you’re dancing-sweaty-nasty-funky-gasping for breath-begging Craig for more, stop for a hot second and listen out for Mikey Beatz’ The Tunnel, just released on Slanted Black Records. It’s hot hot hot!

I’m oh-so-jealous of all you disco fiends this week. Do me a favor and bump n grind yo ass extra hard for me, pretty please. I’ll see you all on the dance floor sometime in the near future — Promise.
