Congratulations to Scotswolfe for having the Mixposure.com song of the week! Have a listen below to Viking Voyage.
Scotswolfe being my recording persona,my real name being Jim McMurtrey.I answer to Jim or Mac.
Started picking out one finger melodies on the piano by ear around age six.Still play by ear as I never seemed to had the patience to learn to read music.Many times I wished that I had forced myself to learn.Maybe someday yet...heh.
Began playing in bar blues/rock bands around Fort Worth in the late sixties.Moved to East Texas in the eighties where I played for several years with country/rock bands.Spent a few years in Oklahoma,then moved back to my hometown and settled here.
Finally I have the time to do what I enjoy most,composing ,creating and recording my music.
I only play keyboards,piano,organ,synths.Started using analog synths in the eighties.Now my studio consists of the bare necessities...a Casio WK-1800 as a standalone keyboard and midi controller,Computer and Mixcraft6,a very affordable and versatile recording program with virtual instruments to expand my virtual orchestra.
Stumbled across Mixposure a month back and now it feels like a second home.Friendly folks and awesome musicians here.I've posted my music on a couple of other sites,but none of them compare to Mixposure,not even close.Plan to be here for a long while .
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">I just wanted to let everyone know that we just added the ability to embed the Mixposure Song Player in the Forum. Not sure why I did not do this before but was thinking about it today. It is really simple and instructions can be found <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=14039">here</a>.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The forum is a great way to get additional feedback on your song or even ask for collab help!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Please let us know if you have any questions!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dazed<br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></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.
