On the List - Klever, Dixon, Techno Sluts, The Glimmers and Kaskade

We're exhausted just thinking about the packed weekend schedule ahead of us that we aren't sure if we'll survive come Monday. But that's the fall season for you. Things are finally in full swing and there are so many things to do that we're sure we are leaving out plenty...

We're exhausted just thinking about the packed weekend schedule ahead of us that we aren't sure if we'll survive come Monday. But that's the fall season for you. Things are finally in full swing and there are so many things to do that we're sure we are leaving out plenty of other amazing things to do around town. But let's try to sift through all the bullshit and because here is what you'll want to check out this weekend:

Atlanta DJ Klever will be back in town tonight. Last time the man was here, he played at a semi-empty White Room (for shame), but we are sure The Vagabond's (30 NE 14th Street, Miami) Money Shot party will attract a sizable crowd. But Klever is definitely reason enough to go out tonight -- trust us. Also, we are hearing around this will be the last weekly Money Shot party, as it turns into a monthly special event party after tonight.

Friday, Aquabooty is back in the club where it belongs as it hosts the grand opening of The King Is Dead (10 NE 40th Street, Miami). The new venue is in the heart of Miami's Design District, and we hope others follow suit and bring life back to the area at night. Berlin DJ/producer Dixon will break in the decks as he pumps out the house music.

To the north, VooDoo Lounge (111 SW Second Avenue, Fort Lauderdale) hosts Techno Sluts Friday night. The fetish party gets freaky with music courtesy of electro-hardcore DJs Jackal & Hyde and more. Oh yea, let's not forget about the girl-on-girl fetish show featuring Rubberdoll, Idelsy, and Rebecca's Rubber Room.

Saturday, the party keeps going when Laundry Bar opens back up as the newly rechristened (305) Music Lounge (721 Lincoln Lane, Miami Beach). Puerto Rican via Chicago house DJ Sneak will welcome everyone back to the venue as he spins for the grand opening.

All the way from Belgium come The Glimmers, who celebrate the release of their debut album Gee Gee Fazzi by stopping by White Room's (1306 N Miami Avenue, Miami) Poplife party. The electro-house duo will spin alongside resident DJs Induce and Aramis to get everyone in a sweaty mess.

Finally, Sunday night, Set (320 Lincoln Road) hosts its Sundance party, which invites Miami's beautiful people to party until Monday morning. This weekend, San Francisco DJ Kaskade shows us some love with his loungy house beats.
