What a Sweet Death

Hello all – wanted to remind you that our largest fundraiser of the year is coming up in just a few short weeks – Death by Chocolate on Saturday, March 8.

 

 

This year all chocolate vendors are being asked to include an uncommon “special ingredient” in their offerings – you have to guess what it is…

 

 

And also note that there is “regular” food at this event – so when (if) you are ready for something non-chocolaty, we’ve got it covered with delicious food from Blue Moon Caterers and Empire Catering.

 

 

RSVP Now here: www.exploration.org/deathbychocolate

 

Or call 316-660-0620.

Now For Scarlett Rabe’s Music Video “Battle Cry”

Now after seeing a brief video with Scarlett Rabe, you get to see her music video “Battle Cry”.  With Scarlett April and I disagree on how we feel about “Battle Cry”.  Here are April’s thoughts.

The openning of “Battle Cry” was really cool, I appreciate a hard bass. I was taken aback when she started singing and am still not sure if I liked it. I enjoyed the chorus of the song alright but I’m afraid that’s all. The song was alright, I didn’t reslly get anything special out of it and probably won’t go back to the song on my own.

-April B.
You can see that April was indifferent about the song.  I on the other hand liked Scarlett’s voice from the start.  It has a slightly unique quality to it.  I also enjoyed the tempo of the song and how Scarlett’s voice blended with the instruments in the chorus, but no enough to drown her out.  I also enjoyed the spotlight on the piano.  I miss the variety of instrumentation that used to be in songs.
So you can see April and I have differing opinions.  Which is great that’s what makes this world go round.  However, now you can watch and listen to Scarlett Rabe’s music video “Battle Cry” and make you on decision.  Thank you  to Scarlett for sharing this on her YouTube channel:

4e releases “swf+”

I love “Swift”! I was immediatly moving with it and can easily see this being played in a club. The hard bass and slower tempo mixes for perfect slow-grinding music. I would put this song up there with “Wicked Games” by The Weekend for slow club music. I’m definintley coming back to this song!
-April B.
This is 4e’s premiere of their new track “swf+” at the 405.  They plan on releasing an EP entitle f0revr in March.  Until then check out “swf+”.
