Where do I start? I never intended for this blog to be about my personal adventures, so I’m not going to go into my trip to Egypt. But I will say that riding a camel up to the foot of the Great Pyramids is a pretty cool experience.
On the Miami music scene, there really is too much coming up in the way of amazing beats to highlight it all in one post. But here’s a brain dump of artists I know are rolling through Miami over the next 30-some days… Seth Troxler, Brett Johnson, MyMy, Adam Stolz, Josh Gabriel, Big Bully, Stretch Armstrong, Arno Cost, Norman Doray, The Martinez Brothers, Dennis Ferrer, Paul Van Dyk, and Armin Van Buuren.
I’m going to highlight one right here, because he’s one of the first artists to hook my mental senses when I got into electronic music. I first met Brett Johnson back when I lived in Dallas. He was instrumental in the proliferation of house music there. Dallas has produced some serious electronic music talent. Off the top of my head… JT Donaldson, Lance Desardi, Brett Johnson, Maetrik, and Granite & Phunk come to mind.
Brett’s style encompasses deep techy house and creative vocal productions. I always loved the variety of tunes he covered. Check out some of his sets on the music section of his website, robot-karate.com.
Brett will be playing at Laundry Bar next Saturday, June 14th, along with DJ Way and Sebastian. I’m excited to have him down and would love for you to come check him out. You’ll hear what I heard back when I got hooked… it still rings through.
