Located off shady backstreets in downtown Miami, Electric Pickle emerged as the perfect foil to the silicone silliness of South Beach when it opened in 2009. Focussed only on off-beat bookings, its shadowy brilliance truly comes to light each year during Miami Music Week, when showcases for the likes of Wolf Music, Crosstown Rebels and Born Electric attract a more hip congregation — those interested in deeper, more understated forms of dance music — than most Miami clubs.

Shabby, chic and a little bit seedy, The Pickle — with its kitsch glitter-ball and guests like Ben UFO, Maya Jane Coles and Moodymann — is Miami's worst-kept secret, a little hidden corner of house and techno hedonism difficult not to love.
