Gunnar Hissam

Om Records publicity director

What's your best or worst Miami memory? My worst Miami memory would have to be the time I drank way too much tequila for Om boss man Chris Smith's birthday and ended up discovering the true definition of pain!

Advice for a first-time visitor? Stay hydrated, hit up Puerto Sagua (700 Collins Ave.) for late-night Cuban food, definitely enjoy a rum runner or two, and try not to pass out in those comfortable lounge chairs in the sun!

What are you looking forward to most? Our 10-year anniversary party at Mansion on March 24.

What's your best or worst Miami memory? When my DJ partner got in a fistfight with a U.K. booking agent on the stage at World of Drum 'n' Bass and the two had to be pulled apart by all the MCs.

Advice for a first-time visitor? Don't forget to go on the beach at least once.

Anything special you'll be bringing with you? Promo CDs and lots of ridiculous miniskirts.

What's your best or worst Miami memory? The Giant Step party at Opium Room back in 2000. It was Glenn Underground, King Britt, and Giles Peterson all night. Incredible music all night long. Even my man Eric from MTV's Real World was in it to win it.

Advice for a first-time visitor? If you don't have any business to do and are just there to party, pick one event each night that you really want to go to and dig in. If you do have business to do there, get as much done as you can before you start partying!

Anything special you'll be bringing with you? I'll be bringing some CDs and some special coconut-flavored condoms!

Sammy D

Dirtybird Records

What was your first trip to Miami like? It was fun drinking and dancing and trying to hit on really hot tan girls that were so far out of my league it's not even funny.

How will Miami be different for you this year? I think I will be more focused on trying to score and less focused on music ... but I realize the more music you make, the more popular you get, and then you get to have sex a lot – your typical catch-22.

What are your goals for Miami this year? To have fun and get more sleep because last year I took this leopard-print pill and stayed up for five days.
