Congrats to TCP-UP for having the Mixposure Song of the Week! TCP has been around Mix since the early days and continues to produce some of the best progressive music available by any band. you can visiy their main Mixposure page here and here some more amazing tunes!
TCP is a progressive band that met right here on Mixposure late in 2007. The spontaneous collaborations which first took place on this site were not only rewarding, but quite unlikely without Mixposure as a key connection point for us. We consider it a success story.
Formed early in 2008, TCP began it's effort to create compelling progressive rock drawing on all eras of this phenomenal brand of music. After realizing the right elements were in place, a creative chemistry began in the ensuing months that culminated in the completion of our first album, The Way, early in February 2009. This resulted in signing with 10T Records who released the album in May 2009.
Once out of musical hibernation over the summer of 2009, we began the follow-up album, Fantastic Dreamer, putting the final touches on in February, 2011 . Both albums are readily available at many popular online stores (e.g. Amazon, Best Buy, Barnes & Noble) and download sites (e.g. iTunes, Napster, eMusic) in many countries. Music reviews are here.
Henry narrated our Center Stage presentation on Mike K's show this November 13, 2010. It previewed some of the material on Fantastic Dreamer. If you didn't catch it, you can listen here to this segment of the show.
Thanks for listening!
One pleasure of putting songs on Mixpo is to see how people react to them. If you have any thoughts, please let us know on the song's page. We return the favor of musician comments by listening and commenting on your material.
TCP is...
- Henry Tarnecky - vocals, lyrics, keyboards, music
- Blake Tobias - keyboards, bass, music
- Jack Wright - guitars, drums, music
- Glenn Arpino - keyboards, music
Congratulations to Brian Brooks for being Mixposure's Artist of the Month!
Making his first appearance in a post war, post industrial London - an era which straddled a time of immense change and upheaval between the old and the new - Brian's first thoughts were that he was glad he hadn't been born a few years earlier.
Initially classically trained, experiencing blues and rock & roll in the early 1960's was, for him, equivalent to Saint Paul on the road to Damascus. He cut his teeth in the London club scene during those halcyon years of the mid to late 1960's - as an audience member and occasional performer in venues such as Les Cousins, on Greek Street in Soho, listening to and learning from legendary musicians such as Davey Graham, Wizz Jones, Bert Jansch, John Renbourn and John Martyn.
Moving to New York in 1968, he studied painting, drawing and photography and threw himself into the musical world of clubs, festivals, concert halls and the college circuit. During this period, in addition to a partnership in a successful live music club in Greenwich Village, with occasional acting in tv and film, he toured in every State of the Union except Hawaii, spending time also in Canada and Mexico and working with such luminaries as Spider John Koerner, Son House, Andy Warhol, John Lennon and Chuck Berry. In addition to playing on the folk circuit in places such as Gerde's Folk City, Cafe Wha'? and The Gaslight, he was also in one of the first bands to regularly perform in Hilly Cristal's CBGB's, on The Bowery, sharing the stage with Blondie, Talking Heads, The Ramones and Television whilst recording on the Adelphi label.
Returning to Europe in 1979, Brian toured and exhibited internationally, playing mostly in celtic bands and recording on the Highway and Topic labels.
In the mid 1990's he relocated to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where he worked with some excellent musicians and technicians, along the way assisting Sir George Martin on his film "Rhythms of Life".
So far, as a solo artist, Brian has completed a five-track EP entitled "Paint the Town", followed by a full twelve-track album entitled "Everything Takes Forever". Before leaving Brazil he recorded three tracks for an EP entitled "Hold On To The Night".
Curently, he is hard at work on a new full album with the working title "Time & Tide" which is partly a result of a collaboration with Italian producer Alessandro Manni, alongside tracks produced in his recently-refurbished home project studio.
These days, Brian mostly divides his time between music, painting and photography.
In 2005 Brian received a Masters degree in painting and hopes, one day, to get to Hawaii...

WildCherry and I were thinking about this and thought it would be a great fit for Mixposure. Winner of this contest gets a Mixposure T-Shirt or Polo. Limited to sizes we have in stock!</p><p>So what is the contest? Well it is pretty hard to read any news source and not see something about Taylor Swift. Yes every time she gets dumped, she is in the studio writing about her experience. There are break up songs about everyone she has dated and it is getting kind of funny. With this in mind, we need everyone to come up with their best Taylor Swift break up song!</p><p>Vocals are going to be key in this one with some fun lyrics. Your song can be any genre you like, serious or comical. Due date will be February 14th of course.</p><p>Please post any questions you have!!</p><p>Todd</p><p>***Update***</p><p>Apparently not everyone is in on the joke for this contest so I thought maybe I should clarify.</p><p>The contest is for a Valentines Day Song. With that in mind, it was a great opportunity to basically have some fun at Taylor Swift's expense. Since she gets dropped more than passes in the NFL and then writes a song about each time, what a great chance to have a laugh about it. Everyone else is laughing about it!</p><p>Please upload the songs to your account and use a song genre of "Valentine Day 2013" so we can track them all.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>
<p>Just wanted to touch base with everyone about the site speeds lately. We have had some ups and downs but hopefully our host has resolved the last issue. The artists pages are on a separate sever and have always run pretty well. Navigating the other areas was kinl of slow at times. There was a fix put in today that should hopefully alleviate that slowness.</p><p>I have run a few speed tests and have seen some improvement so hopefully you will too!!</p><p> </p>
<p>Congratulations to new Mixposure Artist Anne Davis for having the Mixposure Song of the Week! The tune is called awakening and is just superb!

<p>2012 was an awesome year for Mixposure and I wanted to thank everyone of you for making it happen! We have had a lot of new members sign up and we saw some of our artists hit some major accomplishments. Truthfully one of my favorites of 2012 was Ked's interview of Carl Dixon! Kooders Mix Files has been an amazing segment on Mixstream Radio.</p><p>Thanks to everyone on Mix for making 2012 a great year. Let's hope 2013 is even more amazing. Big thanks to the admins. mods and especially the dj's. You guys are true rockstars!</p><p> </p>
