Winter music conference 2012

Winter music conference 2012
Posted on: 04.01.2012 by Lynell Mcelvy
Hey folks!

As you can see, I am new to DJ Tech Tools. I was previously a member with another DJing-related community , but the positive criticism I kept hearing about this site finally persuaded me to register.

My question is regarding Winter Music Conferece. I am a college student and have Spring Break through March 18th. As such, I am planning to take a vacation to Miami Beach to experience WMC this year. My only concern is that all I keep hearing about is the Ultra music festival (in terms of performances). There are (so far unspecified) links for poolside and evening club parties, but I am questioning whether any particularly special acts will be occurring for the opening weekend.

Has anyone been to WMC for the opening weekend previously or heard otherwise and can reassure me to continue with my booking?


Thanks much,

Cyrus

you will get your fill. I promise. There is so much raver booty your eyes may melt of your head.

@Papo: You live in the one of the twin towers?



Got to watch Armin start his set in 2011 to a sunset against those buildings.

Hope you guys enjoy! Ultra was one of the best things i've ever experienced!

awwww man that sucks! Sorry that happened, I've been there. Learn from it, and yeah, hopefully insurance will take care of the rest (of course, they'll bleed it back out of you over the next five years but that's the way it goes).

Luckily everyone involved was okay, not so much for the vehicles or my driving record. Aside from the obvious financial issues of it I feel like absolute shit for causing such an unnecessary incident and am really thankful that I didn't hurt anyone.

Had a great weekend, but making the drive home after being up for basically 3 days straight wasn't the best idea.

Heading out soon... Where I plan to be this weekend:

Everything between those is a mystery at this point (or if I'll even make it to those at all), but good times are expected regardless.

Ugh I really hope I don't get sick. My boss came back in to work today still sick with the flu coughing on everything- Ultra is coming up and I'm taking two days off plus already spent hundreds on accommodations and tickets. I seriously went out and bought surgical masks for the office today and everyone has been wearing them- I'm not taking any chances. It looks like there has been a Swine Flu or SARS outbreak.

Xone:

You said you would be staying by the Airport, correct?

What days will you be going to Ultra and at what time. I won't have any issues picking you up and take you since I live across the street and I don't need to worry about parking.

That way, you will only have to take a cab ride back if you wanted too. I can tell you parking is going to be crazy. It's already is for any Heat game that goes on. (Ultra will be Heat game x3).

DJ SB: Didn't you tell me your brother lives in the same building I live in?

A noob and sort of off topic question about the WMC and DJ awards in general, but is the IDMA awards "the best" a DJ/ Dance music producer could win or are there other awards more prestigious than the IDMA awards?

scamo

Well what budget I have is allotted to drinking lol.... But yeah I grew up in fl so I'm aware of club prices. I wanted to avoid having to cross back and forth over the bridge (whether by rental car or cab) every day but it looks like that might be our best option.

What's crazy is I grew up in fl and at the time south beach was basically the "cuban ghetto"... lol how things have changed.

I'm staying at the airport mariott. Booked through expedia two weeks ago it was $146 a evening for three evening s (had a thing where buy two evening s get a third free). I'm sure they still have rooms available as do the other airport hotels out that way.

You will have to pay cab fare each day but even with $60 a day in cab fare it is still less than half the price for much nicer accommodations than anything in south beach or near ultra or the downtown clubs.

I did, but no one I usually (one year of UMF one of MMW) go with can afford it. I believe we're going to Movement in Detroit instead.

WMC gets some pretty damn good artists in town, in many ways better than ultra, and a lot of ultra artists perform at wmc as long as the the assholes at ultra don't make them sign an exclusivity agreement.
