EMCVT (the Educational Media Company at Virginia Tech) is having a design competition for a new logo!
If you don’t know, EMCVT is the parent organization for WUVT, Collegiate Times, Silhouette, and Virginia Tech Television. The logo should encompass the artistic and journalistic spirit embodied by all of our organizations!
Design entries are due Thanksgiving Day (11/28), and the managers of each org to vote on after break. The chosen logo will be turned into stickers and possibly other merch! Additionally, the winner will receive a $25 gift card of their choice (grocery store, gas station, or restaurant).
Attached is the current EMCVT logo. It's basically a blue circle with a very long line of text. Your entry can be inspired by the current logo or completely different!
If you have any questions, please reach out to our GM, Kate. All entries are welcome, not just those on WUVT art staff. Please submit designs directly to Kate through Slack or email. Thank you!
Wait a second. Does that sayOctober?Yes! Before you is a denser collection of all the glorious new music submissions WUVT has received in the last month! Enjoy!
Aaron Frazer - Into the Blue
Label: Dead Oceans Genre: R&B / Retro Soul Reviewed by: Matt Nowinski
Falsetto heaven on a cloud of silky, old-timey soul. This is Aaron Frazer's (drummer and singer for Durand Jones & The Indications) second solo album after his aptly-named 2021 premiere, "Introducing...". "Into the Blue" mixes sounds from Motown, Stax, and even some western twang. The instrumentation is multi-layered, with several tracks featuring orchestral arrangements and backup singers. At times though, the album sounds a bit like a movie soundtrack. The best tracks feature Frazer's crooning over driving rhythmic melodies. Overall, this album is a solid choice for a chill evening.
WUVT recently Co-hosted a Milk Parlor Show With I'm With The F***ing Band, featuring Crack in the Sidewalk, Eastern Divide, and No Fly List. The event was a smashing success, and each band brought their own genre into the mix to complete the event with plenty of high moments. You might've missed this one, but stay tuned for what I'm With The F***ing Band has next!
