Applecross at The Far Away, by AM Radio

Well, this was a really beautiful, fun, fun night. Keep your eye out for a list of the great music from Darn Darwin and Larkin Galaxy, as well as pictures of Applecross in action. Remember add your own photos to the Applecross group on Flickr http://www.flickr.com/groups/1258595@N21/pool/with/5754639596/, and think about joining the Applecross group on SL, so you can be the first to hear about our next event. Thanks to our fabulous DJs for making our night, and thank you to AM Radio--we'll miss The Far Away, but now we've made another memory there <3

Can you guess where Applecross flashes next?


Where will we be? Well, it's beautiful, we've all been there, and this place is a long-time favorite for so many in SL. On Monday, May 23, from 7 to 11 pm SLT, we'll all get to float and dance to the music of the wonderful DJ Larkin Galaxy, and my personal favorite, DJ Darn Darwin. Just follow the clues in this gorgeous invitation created by Mr. Darwin.


If you missed our last party, you may not know that Applecross has gone flash mob...and our little experiment with listening to the music 'out-of-world' at pteron was great. I'll be handing out a link to the Shoutcast stream, and you'll listen to our DJs from your computer. (This frees us up to go almost anywhere!)

So, join the Applecross group to receive your landmark and the URL to the music stream on Monday!

Applecross at pteron...The Electric DJs and their Out-of-World Music

Lolotehe Menoptra Naturally, the Velvet's Token Spider was perfect to have play at pteron, because, for one thing...she knows her sci-fi (and math btw!). Lolo gave us a lesson in what a rave is all about - and we got Logan's Run!

Solange Simondsen Sometime last year, I brought Sol to pteron, because I'd been dying to go there with Applecross. She immediately said, "I want to play this one!" (or something like that :), and every few months after that night, we spoke enthusiastically about what a great location this place would be electronica, and how much fun she'd have putting music together for this setting. Well, it took turning it into a flash party, but we finally made it, and all of that waiting paid off. Sol's set was perfect...

Applecross Flashed Pteron

DJs Sol and Lolo played the perfect soundtrack for our dreamy night at the surrealistically beautiful pteron. Thanks to everyone for coming out to make it such a great night. Keep an eye out here for our DJ's setlists, and some pictures of the event. In the meantime, have a look at the Applecross group in Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/groups/1258595@N21/pool/

And get ready for our next event in May - more details soon...

Applecross Flash Party is happening!

Join us Monday night, from 7 to 11 pm SLT for the first Applecross Flash Party. Follow this SLurl and grab the above instructions to find the party http://slurl.com/secondlife/pteron/231/129/33

Listen to DJs Solange Simondsen and Lolotehe Menoptra by following this link to the Shoutcast page, and listen through your media player: http://213.251.160.98:18000

An invitation, with all of the above info will be sent out on Monday evening before the party to the Applecross group.

Pteron is a spectacular sim, and we will have a wonderful time. Please note that this a PG sim, and that we need to respect other visitors--hopefully, they will join the party! Can't wait to see you!

Where will you find Applecross on Mon, April 18?

On Monday, I will send the SLurl of the flash party location, along with a link to the music stream to listen (out of world) to DJs Solange Simondsen and Lolotehe Menoptra, who will play from 7 to 11 pm SLT. Their music will electrify your experience in this otherworldly sim. I'll post the SLurl to our location, with directions to the party, along with the music stream link on this blog and in the Applecross group on Flickr. On Monday, I'll send the details out in SL...join the Applecross group to get your invite. Can't wait to see you on Monday!

Applecross Flash Party!


Join the Applecross group and keep your eyes peeled here to find out where Monday's party will be happening! (and thank you Darn Darwin for the awesome invite!)

Here's a hint about where the next Applecross party is happening... think sci-fi! On April 18, I'll post the SLurl and a link to the music stream. DJs Solange Simondsen and Lolotehe Menoptra have amazing sets planned. I hope you'll join us!

You know, I really always wanted Applecross to be simple...no signs, no tip jars, or dance balls...just you, me, some great music, and a cool sim.

Sooo, we're going to try a little experiment!

Rather than listen to the djs in-world, on the day of the event, you will receive a link to a web page that will allow you to listen directly from your computer's media player.

This will free us up to go almost anywhere!

In advance of the event, I'll let you know the date and time, the djs, and a little hint about our location. Then on the day of the event, I'll send you a landmark, and a link to the music stream. (I know many of you are well aware of how to listen to music directly from the Shoutcast page, but if this is new territory for you, never fear! It's easy peasy, and I will provide instructions, along with a few free dances, with the party notice.)

On Monday, April 18, DJs Solange Simondsen and Lolotehe Menoptra will play from 7 to 11 pm SLT. More info to follow!

Applecross turns Flash Party! That's the new plan. Pass it on!
