It’s been a more than interesting run-up to this year’s mad Miami festivities – mainly, of course, because they’ve attached themselves, for the first time, to two separate weeks. The Winter Music Conference is running two weeks earlier than last year, this week in fact. Its long-term dance partner Ultra, however, has stuck to a late March slot and chosen to extend its programme – the Ultra Music Festival is now a three-day party monster, ready to pounce March 25-27.
A precise explanation for the Miami schism is still lacking. Rumours persist that Ultra’s organisers were unable to secure a special events permit for Miami’s Bicentennial Park in the week of WMC, and yet Conference organisers have given no indication, it seems, of trying to re-schedule to keep Miami’s busy springtime dance calendar unified.

In the often serious world of dance music, it’s good to see somebody still having a bit of fun. Meet Wolfgang Gartner, or as he’s known to his parents; Joey Youngman. At first glance the name Wolfgang Gartner is a fairly recent blip on dance music’s collective radar, but dig a little deeper and you’ll discover a robust discography, amassed by a seasoned veteran of the music industry.
