<p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I have seen some posts on Facebook with Mixposure Links to Songs versus the actual flash player. So I thought it might be a good idea to post a quick refresher and I will also get it added to the FAQ section. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">On your artist page ex. www.mixposure.com/artist_name you will see a Facebook Share button under the Flash Player. If you click the Share Button for any artist on Mixposure, it will add a Flash Player on Facebook with all songs by that artist.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">If you go to an artists music page ex. www.mixposure.com/artist_name/music.php and click on the "REVIEW & INFO" button for the song you like, there is a Facebook Share button there also. If you use that Share Button, it will post the individual song player on Facebook instead of all songs by the artist.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">I hope this helps!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Todd</span></p><p> </p><div class="chatboxoptions"> </div><div class="chatboxfriends" style="display: none;"> </div><p> </p><div class="useroptions" style="display: none;"> </div><div class="useroptions" style="display: none;"><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;"> </span><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva;"> </span><br /><br /></div><div class="chatboxcontent" style="display: none;"> </div>
<p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">Hey Everyone! We hope you had a great Holiday! The Holiday's are over now so it is time to get back to the music again. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">We decided to do something different this time around for a Mixposure Site Song. If you have never done one of these, here is how it works. We typically come up with a "Same Song Title", "Acoustic/Electric" or any of a variety of other styles. This time around we decided to take many out of their Genre and do a Country Song Submission. You can make it serious, comical, alternative country or whatever you like. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">Now the cool thing about these is it is just a songwriting exercise for people to work on and maybe collaborate with other Mixposure Musicians. It may be a country genre but remember, the goal is to have fun and experiment. If you want to do Country Rap do it! </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">We will put a due date on this sometime around mid February so you have plenty of time to get it put together or find other musicians. We will put up a new genre in a week or so that everyone can use so we can track the tunes.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'trebuchet ms', geneva;">Have fun and please post any questions you have!</span></p><p> </p>

If you will be out drinking, please be safe. Remember cab fares will mostly be free but even if they are not, a cab fare is so much cheaper than a DUI! Be smart everyone!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Since we are just about to close out 2011, I just wanted to thank everyone for being a part of Mixposure! It has been a remarkable year and all of us at Mixposure appreciate every one of you.

You guys have truly kept me sane or tried to. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">As always, to all of our Advertisers and Subscribers a huge thank you and a big group hug. Without you, this site would not exist. So from everyone at Mixposure, Thank You!!</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Have a Happy New Year,</span></p><p><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms,geneva; font-size: medium;">Todd</span></p><p> </p><p> </p>

Congratulations to Q Harper for having Mixposure's Song of the Week! Check out the song below!
Bio:
Native Detroit performance sensation Q Harper (the eleventh of twelve children) was born Quintin Deon Harper to William and Mary Harper. His love for music was inherited from his father as he began his performance career at the tender age of five. As the second youngest member of “The Sensational Harper Singers” (a gospel group formed by his father), Q enjoyed regularly acclaimed appearances on radio and television, often performing with his siblings at three to four churches on any given Sunday. Under the watchful and demanding tutelage of William Harper, Q quickly developed an uncanny, almost enigmatic facility with music, a language he actually prefers to what he calls “all lesser forms of communication”. Despite his incredible abilities with the acoustic guitar, piano, and writer’s pen, it is his voice, the first of all instruments, which demands and arrests the ear. Boasting a beautifully even and technically flawless tonal quality, this artist’s upper and lower vocal registers are rendered with remarkable consistency as he seamlessly moves between each mechanical height and depth—both spontaneously and upon command. After sharing a stage with people like Christopher Williams, Charlie Wilson, Frankie Beverly, and local Detroit talent, Q realized his powerful voice needed to be heard in its own element. It is with those skills that songs like "Only God Loves You More Than I Do", "Must Be My Wife" and "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah" from his solo album "One" that he has succeeded in sold out concerts, and has been approached by Universal-Motown, Atlantic Records, and Virgin Records to name a few labels who's executives recognized a real talent.
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">I just wanted to let everyone know we created a new genre called "Holiday Songs 2011". If you are uploading a Holiday Song for the Mixposure Holiday Song Submissions, please make sure you use this genre so it appears on the Holiday Chart on the main Mixposure Page. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Todd</span></p><p><br /> </p><p>Holiday Songs over the years! <object width="500" height="500" 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=299&song_id=all&band_id&autoplay=false&skin_color=0xFF0000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=500&remoteHeight=500&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=299&song_id=all&band_id&autoplay=false&skin_color=0xFF0000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=500&remoteHeight=500"></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="500" height="500" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" flashvars="radio_id=299&song_id=all&band_id&autoplay=false&skin_color=0xFF0000&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=500&remoteHeight=500&system_name=Mixposure.com" quality="high" wmode="transparent" flashvars="system_name=Mixposure.com&radio_id=299&song_id=all&band_id&autoplay=false&skin_color=0xFF0000&cluster_url=http://www2.mixposure.com&jamroom_url=http://www.mixposure.com&remoteSwf=http://www.mixposure.com/modules/n8FlashPlayer/players/j3Xap.swf&remoteWidth=500&remoteHeight=500" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></embed> </object></p>
<p>Congratulations to Tommie Brewster for being our December Artist of the month!</p><p>From Tommie's Bio:</p><p> </p><p><strong>Background!!</strong><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>I have been a musician all my life and cannot remember a time</strong></p><p><strong>when I didn’t play piano. I started before I was 4 years old </strong></p><p><strong>and studied classical music at the Royal Academy of Music</strong></p><p><strong>in London, playing several other instruments also.</strong></p><p><strong>At home, my influences were many from jazz to ragtime, from </strong></p><p><strong>swing to reggae, from rock to heavy metal but it was always</strong></p><p><strong>blues that spoke loudest to me in my heart and soul and it was </strong></p><p><strong>always my dream to write, play and sing my own blues music.</strong></p><p><strong><img class="spotlight" src="http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc6/180773_1885415892526_1155240882_32398793_1263073_n.jpg" alt="" /></strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>Every musician absorbs influences and I am no exception, but I do </strong></p><p><strong>not knowingly emulate or imitate anyone – I just write my blues</strong></p><p><strong>the way I hear it in my heart and my head.</strong><strong> </strong></p><p><strong> </strong></p><p><strong>I also had a dream to produce my own music which I have now</strong></p><p><strong>achieved and with the help of some very professional final</strong></p><p><strong>mastering I am pleased with the finished product. I write</strong></p><p><strong>my music in the oldfashioned way, on manuscript and the lyrics </strong></p><p><strong>come to me along with the melody as a complete package. </strong></p><p><strong>I record also in as authentic a way as I can – no samples, </strong></p><p><strong>loops, tweaks – if I make a mistake in playing the piano part, then </strong></p><p><strong>I start at the beginning and do it all again!!</strong></p><p><strong>I play piano, sax, clarinet, harmonica, organ and a few other things.</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">I was noticing this issue on my pc so I thought I would post a fix that worked for me. We have always tried to make Mixposure work in all browsers. The biggest one we have issues with has been Internet Explorer. All others seem to work fine. I typically use firefox on my pc or safari and firefox on my Mac so I kind of missed this bug. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">My flash player on here was flickering and I could not use IE on CNN or Foxnews for video. Even the ads were flickering. I started researching and found out there is some kind of bug with either Flash or Internet Explorer and there are complaints all over the place. Hopefully they will get it resolved soon. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">I did find a post out there for a fix if anyone is experiencing the same issue. Just open Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Click Advanced and you will see Use Software Rendering instead of GPU. Click that and restart your browser. I no longer have the **** and the players appear correctly. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Todd</span></p><p> </p>
