20Shameless Self-Promotion
posted by AndrewIn addition to writing for the Sweat blog, I also freelance as a TV producer for ArtStreet, a show on WLRN-TV channel 17. I recently produced a segment about the local music Impresarios over at Honor Roll Music. It’s a seven minute story about the birth of their studio space and company and Lolo gets a fierce shout out about 5 minutes in (unprompted, I swear). Bonus cameos: Devin Smith, Pure Imagination’s Matt Gajewski and Geneva Harrison.

P.S. We’d like to humbly recommend Sweat’s own Mike Deuce for “Best Club DJ” – he’s been seriously slaying dance floors all over Miami.

3Peep The New WVUM Website!
posted by LoloOur pals over at WVUM 90.5 FM have a sparkly new website over at wvum.org.
Check out their top playlists (many of which are available in the WVUM section in Sweat’s New Releases area), the current show schedule and all sorts of other college radio coolness. Why, there’s even a nice write-up of Sweat, “the best little record shop in Miami.” Aww shucks guys…
Btw if you haven’t checked Miami’s best indie radio station (since 1968!) lately, open up your ears and tune into the voice!
