It’s that time of year again, the warm breeze of south beach beckons as Miami’s famed Winter Music Conference is just around the corner. A packed week of everything dance plays host to producers and fans from across the globe. The hectic week offers something for everyone (and often too much). Big names are behind the decks at almost every stop in south beach resulting in a door-to-door parade of party. Debuted in 2013, Red Bull snuck in with an exclusive takeover, which proved to be a tucked away hotspot for talent. Invading a hotel, the energy drink launched their ‘Guest House’ hosting only the top producers, artists, and industry influencers.

Teaming up with trending labels such as Body High and Boys Noize Recs and streaming platforms like Boiler Room and RBMA Radio the 3 day custom hotel was a sight to see. This year proves to be no different as the lineup trickled out via Billboard yesterday. Of course, wonder-kid Skrillex makes a return with his label OWSLA. Diplo’s Mad Decent and UK’s PMR records add to the fun with showcases. Coming in the deep end we will also see Richie Hawtin’s M-nus and the Hot Natured Crew with Hot Creations. If that isn’t hot enough for you Native Instruments and Traktor will be hosting a foodie showcase where producers get on the grill serving up goodness.

The whole lot sounds like a recipe for success. This closed-door event is most definitely something to watch for WMC. If you aren’t able to weasel your way in we suggest keeping a close eye on the interwebs for streams you won’t want to miss.
