Congrats to Harry V for having the Mixposure.com Song of the Week!! Check out this tune!!
Born 1950 in the Netherlands,
living in Maastricht,
songs in english, dutch, french and german I write music from Europe about Children&War, Love&Life, Life&Death, Joy&Sorrow, about the Love For All People.
Wrote most of my songs for my sweet Annet who departed in 2004, not realizing many all over the world would relate to these diddies Wink
Thank God they do.
In 2009 I joined reverbnation which is still my main platform in combination with facebook.
Reverb is all about yours truly, my facebook music page is about the friends I meet, daily new encounters, all of them excellent artists whom I gladly give some exposure on my FB page.
Here too I just found a way to give exposure to what I hear on MIXPOSURE,
look in my Playlist, Holdin Dixie Close is my music, other playlists are for songs I rate
☆☆☆☆☆
with Love ♥♫
I just wanted to let everyone know that we added a small icon on the New Song Page with a small pen on it. When clicked it will bring up a window to add song reviews. This is much easier I think. I will be adding these to all of the chart pages soon also. I may need to tweak the popup size a bit since it auto resizes and I think it is a bit large on some computers. Your mileage may vary .
Thanks,
Todd

I was reading about this guitar on PremierGuitar.com and I thought I would share. For some reason I kind of like this. Thr price was not bad either at $1199.
Scottsdale, AZ (August 5, 2014) -- EVH is proud to announce the release of one of the most requested guitars Eddie Van Halen has played over the years, the EVH Stripe Series “Circles” guitar made famous by Van Halen’s 1981 “Unchained” music video.
With an otherworldly black-and-white “circles” graphic gloss finish, the EVH Circles model is without question one of the most distinctively eye-catching guitars in the Stripe Series lineup. There’s nothing alien about the rest of this high performance tone machine, though, with its sleek Strat-like basswood body, rock-solid quartersawn maple neck with oiled finish, fast and smooth compound-radius maple fingerboard (12”-16”) with comfortably rolled edges and 22 jumbo frets, a single ferocious EVH direct-mount pickup with single black plastic control knob (master volume), EVH Floyd Rose with D-Tuna bridge and locking nut, and EVH tuners.

I would like to extend the Same Song Title Madness to August 2nd! I have had some stuff come up and this one has just not had the attention it deserves. Let's extend it a few weeks and get the ball moving.

David Gilmour's wife Polly Samson leaks news on Twitter about new Pink Floyd album
Pink Floyd freaks everywhere are all a-twitter about the news that the British prog-rock giants will apparently release their first album in 20 years, titled The Endless River , in three months.
Just six hours ago David Gilmour ‘s wife, author Polly Samson–who cowrote the lyrics to most of the songs on Floyd’s 1994 album, The Division Bell –tweeted this message:
Btw Pink Floyd album out in October is called “The Endless River”. Based on 1994 sessions is Rick Wright’s swansong and very beautiful.
Wright was the original keyboardist for Pink Floyd, who died of cancer in 2008 at the age of 65. Here’s what Gilmour had to say about him at the time of his passing:
No one can replace Richard Wright. He was my musical partner and my friend. In the welter of arguments about who or what was Pink Floyd, Rick’s enormous input was frequently forgotten. He was gentle, unassuming, and private, but his soulful voice and playing were vital, magical components of our most recognised Pink Floyd sound. I have never played with anyone quite like him. The blend of his and my voices and our musical telepathy reached their first major flowering in 1971 on ‘Echoes’. In my view all the greatest PF moments are the ones where he is in full flow. After all, without ‘Us and Them’ and ‘The Great Gig in the Sky’, both of which he wrote, what would ‘The Dark Side of the Moon’ have been? Without his quiet touch, the album ‘Wish You Were Here’ would not quite have worked. In our middle years, for many reasons, he lost his way for a while; but in the early Nineties, with ‘The Division Bell’, his vitality, spark and humour returned to him, and then the audience reaction to his appearances on my tour in 2006 was hugely uplifting and it’s a mark of his modesty that those standing ovations came as a huge surprise to him (though not to the rest of us). Like Rick, I don’t find it easy to express my feelings in words, but I loved him and will miss him enormously.
Apparently, Pink Floyd’s management wasn’t thrilled with Samson’s news-breaking tweet. Nor were they impressed when vocalist Durga McBroom-Hudson–who performed with Floyd at their 1994 concert in Vancouver –posted this photo to her Facebook page, with the message: “YES. THERE IS A PINK FLOYD ALBUM COMING OUT. AND I’M ON IT. And there was much rejoicing.”
No tweets yet on whether Roger Waters is making a guest appearance on the new album.
So he probably isn’t.
Happy 4th of July everyone! Enjoy the long weekend and please be sure to keep your fingers!! To those in the UK celebrating their independence from the USA, up yours!
Just a big congrats to the TrueVulgarians for being the Mixposure.com Artist of the Month. This pair just knows how to create great music! Please check their music out and leave a review!
Bio:
The TrueVulgarians are a brother-sister duo hailing from just outside Cleveland, Ohio, having sung together for longer than they'd want to admit. Songs range from the melancholy to the ridiculous with a story-telling vibe. We're just a couple of amatuer musicians who have the need to create and perform without expectation beyond that. All our tunes are written and arranged by (brother) William Thompson, who plays acoustic guitar and does the lead vocals. (Sister) Jacki Grapentine provides back-up vocals and much needed moral support. We hope you enjoy our material as much as we have enjoyed making it available here on Mixposure for public consumption..

Ok the votes are in! The next Same Song Title Madness title is "Voice In The Distance". Let's look at at completion date of July 12th for this one. That should give everyone enough time to seek out some people to collaborate with if you so desire!
Have fun with it everyone!
Hey Everyone - You will now see a toolbar at the bottom of the page for Chat. It will show the users online you can message and you can also disable it by clicking the cog wheel. This is basically the same as Facebook. You can also enable Facebook contacts and Google Talk on this as well.
I will probably add a "shoutbox" back on the main page in the next week or so that we can use as well.
Please let us know if you have any questions!
Todd
