Thank you. Very helpful.
So, just wondering, is mmw supposed to appeal to patrons while wmc is geared more toward dj's? |
In a nutshell, yeah.
Winter Music Conference started in the 80s as a way for DJs to get together somewhere warm and nice to bounce ideas off each other to inspire and grow the music. Think seminars and workshops, and networking.
Of course the DJs and producers loved to party so there were parties.
Got so big that the actual conference itself was dwarfed by all the parties it had spawned. Ultra, all the Space parties, SoBe clubs, massive raves like Ice Palace, etc. So a business opportunity presented itself...create the MMW thing, brand it, license it. So that's what Miami Music Week is. It's a way for a company to make money by organizing (more like compiling) the parties, pretty much.
However I as well as many others who have been going for years still just say WMC. It's WMC to me and probably always will be.

Only reason I'm even on this site is because of the FL forum. Literally found it while searching for events when I first got into the music 5 years ago. I have posted a few times in the main forum and several times in the NY forum, but no, I have not looked back at the archives of tranceaddict so as to gain a deeper knowledge of the site. Silly me.

it's cool how this board sees a revival around March, so ready for the Miami sunshine, winter's taking a toll on me.....
So just a couple of quick questions
1. I'm thinking about checking out the Suara Pool Party at Dream- I've never been to this venue, any thoughts?
2. Any word from the French Express guys? (I know Rathsman is doing a show with Disclosure on Friday but any updates re. Tichauer or Moonboots?)
3. Any word on the Pacha Ibiza Pool Party? What about anything on a Desolat party- GUTI?
4. Do you think the Hot Creations Crew (JJ, Richy Ahmed, wAFF) will be doing a pool party? If so, when?
Thanks
