<p><span style="font-size: medium;">The Same Song Title Madness title has been decided and the winner is "</span><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/forums/showthread.php?12581-May-2010-Same-Song-Title-Madness"><span style="font-size: medium;">You Know Me (It's What I Do)</span></a><span style="font-size: medium;">". Let's put a due date of June 12th on this one. So you have roughly four weeks to create a song with this name as the song title. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">For those of you not familiar with the Same Song Title Madness, here is how it works. <br /><br />1. Everyone submits a song title name (done)<br />2. We pick out some of the best ones and create a poll and everyone votes (done)<br />3. Once a winning title is declared, everyone creates a song using that title<br />4. Instrumentals are fine but obviously vocals help sell the song a bit better<br />5. This is a great opportunity to collab with other Mixposure musicians!<br />6. The song can be any genre or style</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Have fun with it everyone!</span></p>
<p>Ked Begins Work on New TV Series</p><p> </p> <p>Toronto Motorsports Park.Kohler Ontario</p><p> </p> <p>Tom Hnatiw former co-host of Dream Car Garage on SpeedTV, and now host of his own show Hard Drive with Tom on MEN Tv... has asked <a href="http://www2.mixposure.com/KED_RECORDS/">Ked</a> to supply music for a new series he is working on that revolves around the incredible 2010 Dodge VIper ACR-X race car and its subsequent race series. The bulk of his HEMI Tones project will find its way into the backround music and the series theme song.</p> <p>I asked Ked about the video shoot and this is what he had to say. "Tom asked me to bring a guitar to the video shoot. He put me on the road course on a corner at the apex.... and had the incredible White Viper ACR-X go by me at race speeds just inches from me while i jammed along to the song VIPER BITE which will be the series theme song all this while two cameras shot the action."</p> <p>"This footage will be hopefully used for the computer generated opening scenes for the tv show.. yet unamed but due to broadcast on Versus TV in the USA sometime in the middle of July. This is such a huge honor and a thrill for me to be involved in something i truly love.. CARS AND GUITARS !!!!!!"</p> <p>"As an added bonus myself and my wife.. got to experience an ultimate thrill.. I GOT TO DRIVE THE DARK GREY VIPER ACR!!!!!!!!!. We had an in car camera on us for the three laps i was allowed. In second gear at 5000 rpm .. 600hp propelled us to just under 100 mph in a blink of an eye... hopefully some of that footage will apear on Hard Drive with Tom... on a future episode of the show."</p> <p>"I do believe this is just the begining of an amazing experience" said Ked. "Tom has approached me about a few other ideas but i can not let them out of the bag as of yet. I can say this though.... one idea he had for me to explore would be very beneficial for Mixposure."</p><p> </p><p><img src="http://www.mixposure.com/image.php?mode=photo_image&band_id=1937&image_id=4826" alt="" width="400" height="300" /></p>

<p>Avalanche is one of those bands who seem to never die. They have been in existence for over 30 years now. How many bands can say that?<br /><br />What's most impressive about Avalanche? Well, listen to some of their early music and compare that to the new material this band produces every year during their annual recording sessions. What you will find is that Avalanche adheres to their Classic Rock style, keeping it alive and well, while adding some fresh elements to their newer creations. They keep you interested in the Genre with their tracks. At least, that holds true with me, no doubt. I've been following Avalanche's music now for a number of years and am continually impressed with the material they produce. Another recording session is just weeks away and I can't wait to hear the outcome!<br /><br />Moreover, Avalanche consists of just "plain old nice guys". I've met Mike Foster in person and had dialogues with Mark and Barry Easton. I couldn't think of a nicer bunch of guys. Extremely skilled in all aspects of music and pleasant people to be around.<br /><br />Anyway, take a listen to those guys and you will know why I selected them to be Mixposure Artist of the Month for May 2010.<br /><br />Mike Kohlgraf<br />President & DJ of MixStream Radio<br /><br />PS: Mike Foster - one of these days, I'll have you in my studio again for a live performance during my show "Saturday Night Rocks" (we'll be in touch).</p>

Ian MacDonald, the author of "Revolutions in the Head," a song-by-song critique of the group, describes it as the "peak of the Beatles' achievement . . . among the most penetrating and innovative artistic reflections of its era."</p> <p>When he wrote "A Day in the Life" in Jan. 1967, Lennon had been a Beatle for seven years and was exhausted, bored and fed up. The song was a cry of despair, Norman said. "At this point he is feeling imprisoned by the Beatles and wants to get out but does not know where to go."</p> <p><a href="http://entertainment.timesonline.co.uk/tol/arts_and_entertainment/music/article7112267.ece">Click here for more on this story from the Times of London.</a></p><p> </p><div>Beatles A Day In The Life Lyrics</div><div>Send "A Day In The Life"Ringtone to your Cell</div><div>Songwriters: Mccartney, Paul;Lennon, John</div><div> </div><div>I read the news today oh, boy</div><div>About a lucky man who made the grade</div><div>And though the news was rather sad</div><div>Well, I just had to laugh</div><div>I saw the photograph</div><div>He blew his mind out in a car</div><div>He didn't notice that the lights had changed</div><div>A crowd of people stood and stared</div><div>They'd seen his face before</div><div>Nobody was really sure if he was from the house of lords</div><div></div><div>I saw a film today oh, boy</div><div>The english army had just won the war</div><div>A crowd of people turned away</div><div>But I just had to look</div><div>Having read the book</div><div>I'd love to turn you on.</div><div></div><div>Woke up, fell out of bed</div><div>Dragged a comb across my head</div><div>Found my way downstairs and drank a cup</div><div>And looking up, I noticed I was late</div><div>Found my coat and grabbed my hat</div><div>Made the bus in seconds flat</div><div>Found my way upstairs and had a smoke</div><div>And somebody spoke and I went into a dream</div><div>Ah</div><div></div><div>I read the news today oh, boy</div><div>Four thousand holes in blackburn, lancashire</div><div>And though the holes were rather small</div><div>They had to count them all</div><div>Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the albert hall</div><div>I'd love to turn you on</div><div>© SONY BEATLES LTD;SONY/ATV TUNES LLC</div><div class="smalltext bodytext"></div></div>
