Event Review: Ultra Music Festival Weekend Two
March 29, 2013 By 1 Comment
Celebrating it’s 15th year anniversary, Ultra Music Festival has grown over the years into one of the world’s most prestigious EDM events. Boasting an impressive 7 stages in the heart of downtown Miami and an eclectic lineup featuring everyone from the superstars like Tiesto to the underground kings like Richie Hawtin and Seth Troxler. With any event of this scale, there are bound to be some problems, but for the most part Ultra did a really good job providing festival goers with the best possible experience. Lines weren’t unbearable, traffic was manageable, water was free, there were plenty of bathrooms, and getting from stage to stage was relatively easy and quick. For the most part, crossover noise between stages was minimized despite a couple unavoidable exceptions. Overall it seemed that Ultra had listened to their fans and did everything they could to make this an incredible experience for all and I think they did an excellent job. Our team went to the second and final weekend. Check out what I had to say about the festival below.

March 14, 2013 By 96 Comments
Derek Vincent Smith, the genius known as Pretty Lights, has produced and released a recap video from his show during this past New Year’s eve celebrations in New York City. The video showcases stellar views of the NYC skyline, beautiful fans celebrating a new year, and of course, the spectacular visual show that accompanies Pretty Lights during all of his sets. PL is infamous for the amazing LED backdrops and scenery accompanying his DJ booth, dozens of lasers in every color imaginable, and breathtaking music that perfectly compliments what your eyes are seeing with what your ears are hearing. The track playing during this video is Pretty Lights’ latest single “The Day is Gone”. The song is a classic PL production featuring amazing remixed instrumentals, heavy bass, and vintage vocals. Relive Pretty Lights NYE celebrations from NYC, or for all you Pacific Northwest folks, have a taste of what you will experience from Derek this Friday at Lucky 2013 in Seattle, WA.
MOX TV Online Music Video Channel
March 13, 2013 By Leave a Comment
MOX TV is a brand new music video channel that lets you get the coverage on events and artists that you want to see. MOX TV is officially being released during Ultra Music Festival and the Winter Music Conference. With so many acts and so little time to see them, MOX TV is being released just when we need it. Now none of us will need to be rushing between stages and arguing with our buddies about which artists we want to see more.
MOX TV will also be hosting the MOX Bus—a dance party on wheels, complete with an open bar and world-class DJ crews. The bus can be seen cruising through the streets of South Beach, Downtown, and more. The MOX Bus will also be hosting daily takeovers from Revealed, Dirtybird, Anjunabeats, 1605 Music Therapy, and SMOG.
Carter Laren, Co-Founder of MOX TV has said, “We’ve chosen to work with these and other artists featured on MOX because we believe they represent the future of music, and we’ve chosen to launch in Miami during Ultra and WMC because of the sheer volume of talent and unbridled fan enthusiasm you experience when you’re there. Like most people in Miami that week, we won’t be sleeping much.” What differentiates MOX from other media outlets, Laren emphasizes, is its television-style presentation. “We’re not just another a dressed-up blog. I like to say that we’re what MTV would be if they launched in 2013. And if they played music.”
This is the next big thing in coverage of the music we all love. As their motto goes, this is what music looks like. You can check out the beta @ http://mox.tv/
