I know this time of the year is extremely busy for all of us but if you have time, please add a tune!</p><p>Covers are allowed providing they are royalty free. There is a website out there that has a list of all songs available. You can make it serious, comical and any genre you like. Just have fun!</p><p>Please post if you have any questions!</p><p> </p>
<p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I just wanted to take a few minutes here and apologize to everyone since I have not been around as much as I wanted to be in the last month. After two years of searching WildCherry and I finally found a house we wanted and closed on it last week. We are having some upgrades made on it this weekend and plan on moving in on Monday. As you can imaging the last month has been pretty busy. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">I am hoping we get, dare I say it?, Comcast installed on Monday so we have internet access immediately. I have been using Qwest aka CenturyTel's DSL and I have never been happy with it so it is time to try something new. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">It looks like my studio will be in the basement which in all honesty is not necessarily a bad thing. The man cave is sort of finished but really needs an overhaul. Maybe in a few years after I have two nickels to rub together <img title="Laughing" src="http://www.mixposure.com/include/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-laughing.gif" alt="Laughing" border="0" />. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Again my apologies for not updating things as fast as they should be ie. Artist/Song of the Week, Newsletters etc. It looks like I will be doing some music again in the not so distant future. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Thanks,</span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: medium;">Todd</span></p><p> </p><p> </p>
<p>A big congrats to The London Project for being Mixposure's Artist of thr Month! Lonnie has been on Mix for many years and it was obviously a logical choice with the music they put out!</p><p> </p><p><object width="295" height="325" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="flashVars" value="radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=47&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325&system_name=Mixposure.com"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="pluginspage" value="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="flashvars" value="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=47&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325"></param><embed width="295" height="325" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=47&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325&system_name=Mixposure.com" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" quality="high" wmode="transparent" flashvars="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=47&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325"></embed> </object></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Bio:</p><p>The London Project is a progressive/classic rock band from Vancouver Canada that is determined to bring back the classic rock sounds of the 70's and 80's with a full and modern sound, and yes, rippin' guitar solos.

What an amazing night! To have Carl on Mixstream Radio playing live music was nothing short of awesome. I have never been so happy to be a part of this site!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Ked did a remarkable job interviewing Carl not to mention playing on a few tunes. It was a joy to listen to the music. The one thing I have always said is that if you want to find talent, listen to musicians playing live acoustic. There is nothing to hide behind. The music is in its cleanest and rawest (is that a word?) form. Carl shined in this department! Talk about sounding good lol!! </span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Ked recorded the show and we will be have the rebroadcast shortly.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Thanks to Carl, Ked and everyone in chat and everyone who tuned in to listen!</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: small;">Todd</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> </p><p style="text-align: justify;"> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p>

<p>So I have been debating on buying a new acoustic and was absolutely blown away when I found out Carvin is ending their Acoustic Cobalt line! There are only 2 models left in stock now! </p><p>I can understand the logic behind it but this just kills me. My C850 is an amazing sound. When I compared it to Takemine's and Martin's I had to get to the $1800 price range to find a sound I liked. I paid $750 for the C850! </p><p>So very said to see them kill the line. The truly were a remarkable guitars. </p>
<p>Kooder and I, as well as a few others, discussed this during the Mix Files Interview with Sarah. It was such a great interview amd musc it seemed only fitting that we make Sarah the Mixposure Artist of the Month. </p><p>Congrats Sarah and thanks for being a part of Mixposure and sharing your music with us!</p><p>Bio:</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span>September 25, 2012 </span><br /><span>With the release of her debut solo album "Stronger Now" (Produced by Kevin Doyle), Sarah Smith is proving that she is in fact, stronger than ever.</span><br /><span>A London, Ontario native, Sarah earned national recognition with her rock band The Joys, who achieved certified GOLD status, charted nationally on College Radio in 2009 & 2010 and won Best Rock Act at the Jack Richardson Music Awards, also in 2010. Their music has saturated the industry through licensing to Sony Playstation, Teletoon, Majority Rules, CAKE the movie starring Heather Graham, and the OUT TV show, Chris & Johnʼs Road Trip.</span><br /><span>Known as “the hardest working band in Canada”, The Joys have sold more than 15,000 albums and shared the stage with world-class artists such as The Trews, Sloan, Arkells, Bedouin Soundclash, Crash Karma, Thornley, Edwin, Big Sugar, The Salads, Sam Roberts, Robert Plant, Matthew Good, K-OS, Honeymoon Suite, Loverboy, David Wilcox, Snoop Dogg, Colin James, The Headpins, 54-40, Kim Mitchell, Uncle Cracker and Finger Eleven.</span><br /><span>By stepping outside the boundaries of The Joys to bring audiences her own voice, Sarah</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /><span>Smith cultivated a sound built on her experiences. She enjoyed immediate success as a solo artist, claiming awards for Best Singer/Songwriter in 2009 and 2010 at the London Music Awards, and was host of the Jack Richardson Music Awards in 2011.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><br /><span>Often associated with the likes of Sheryl Crow and Melissa Etheridge, Sarahʼs powerhouse vocals shine through in hits like "Shine Bright" and “The Stars” which deliver the usual passion, raw emotion and</span><br /><span>texture fans have come to expect. Stronger Now is a testament to the paradoxically strong, yet tender voice that has made Sarah famous.</span><br /><span>See Sarah Smith live: </span><a href="http://www.sarahsmithmusic.com/">www.sarahsmithmusic.com</a></p><p><object width="475" height="523" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="flashVars" value="radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=6931&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325&system_name=Mixposure.com"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="pluginspage" value="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="flashvars" value="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=6931&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325"></param><embed width="475" height="523" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=6931&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325&system_name=Mixposure.com" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" quality="high" wmode="transparent" flashvars="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=all&band_id=6931&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=325"></embed> </object></p>
<p><span style="color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Congrats to Bobby Cain for having the Mixposure Song of the Week.

I have played every kind of venue; from the smallest, seediest club to 10,000 seat concert halls. Loved every minute of it.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium; color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">I also spent many hours in various studios as both musician and producer on a variety of projects.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium; color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">I am now a part time musician; I play in several different bands including "Death Row Bodine"" , my main live band, and "The Mopley Crew", a jam band with some of my oldest and best friends.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium; color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">I write songs mostly to make you shake your money maker. I'm not deep, and I'm certainly no virtuoso. Everything you hear here is me, there's no one else to blame. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium; color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">I just want you to have a good time.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: medium; color: #888888; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">Thank you for visiting, and...</span><br /><span style="color: #888888; font-size: medium; font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;">TURN IT UP!!!</span></p><p><object width="400" height="450" classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="flashVars" value="radio_id=&song_id=29487&band_id=806&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=450&system_name=Mixposure.com"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf"></param><param name="flashvars" value="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=29487&band_id=806&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=450"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="pluginspage" value="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></param><embed width="400" height="450" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="radio_id=&song_id=29487&band_id=806&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=450&system_name=Mixposure.com" quality="high" wmode="transparent" flashvars="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=&song_id=29487&band_id=806&autoplay=false&skin_color=0x000000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=400&remoteHeight=450" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed> </object></p>
