<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Congratulations to <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Nigel_Potter/">Nigel Potter</a>! Mixposure's August Artist of the Month! </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><img src="http://www2.mixposure.com/image.php?mode=photo_image&band_id=928&image_id=528&width=384" alt="" width="384" height="288" /><br /></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Many of you will already know the artist <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/Nigel_Potter/">Nigel Potter</a>. He's been a great supporter of this site and the many and varied artists here for years. As a songwriter and musician, Nigel has recorded some of the finest music you will hear anywhere, commercially or independently. He writes about the human condition as very few can. He writes with honesty and integrity. His music reaches those places where few musicians can go, which is to say: his music stirs the soul. It is my great pleasure to honor Nigel Potter as the Mixposure Artist of the Month for August. And I am equally proud to call Nigel Potter a friend.<br /> <br />Peace,<br />Jim</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Just wanted to let everyone know that we will be changing up Mixposure a bit in the next few days. While I love what we have done over the years it is time for a change. The layout here is, and let's be honest, a bit of a cluster. We will try and retain some of the current functionality but some things may end up in the Mixposure graveyard. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">As I said on Facebook, think clean! A big thanks to WildCherry for getting on me to make some changes. You really are the love of my life <img title="Smile" src="http://www.mixposure.com/include/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" />.</span></p><p> </p>
<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Well I have been working on getting this for some time and it appears we will be testing it possibly this weekend. It may bother some and I know it will make some people ecstatic! Unlike the Review Crew saga though, love it or hate it, this is getting implemented. <br /></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-size: medium;">The change that will be going in is a limit on song uploads based on song reviews. So if I sign up as an artist today on Mixposure, I will be allowed to only upload 2 songs. I will not be able to upload any other songs until day two. I will also not be able to upload any more songs until I have 5 song reviews. This means Song Reviews and not Artist Reviews, Blog Comments etc. or reviews on my own songs. Mixposure Premium Members will just be limited to the number of uploads per day which will probably be 5. <br /></span></span></p><p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-size: medium;">As you can see, this will not effect most artists here on Mixposure.</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Thanks for Supporting Mixposure!</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Dazed<br /></span></span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: medium;">I just wanted to express my thanks to <a href="http://www2.mixposure.com/Mike_Aurigemma/">Mike Aurigemma</a> and Randy at Sam Ash. After a little bit of dicussion, they helped me secure some new recording gear. It was time to make some upgrades and I was just not sure which would be my best bet. Mike made it easy ans had some great suggestions. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Thanks guys for making this purchase pretty easy!</span></p><p> </p>
<p>Greetings from Denver!</p><p>Just wanted to update everyone about our move. For those of you who have moved before, you know it is never any fun and very stressful. It will also always cost you more money then you ever anticipated. This move was no different.</p><p>We rented a house online and had some relatives check it out. The goal was to be in it for 3 months until our house sold and then we would buy a new one. They checked the house out and figured it was good enough for 3 months. When we got there, we had a different opinion. It was not ready and I am not sure if it would ever be ready. So we passed on that house. The problem is that this left us with no house, 2 dogs and a cat. So off to a hotel we go and off to a kennel went the dogs.</p><p>We pick up the keys for the new house tomorrow and get our furniture back tomorrow as well. Woohoo. The bad news is that we do not get internet service until next week. I am hoping we can leach off an open network. If not, it will be strictly iphone so we will not be around for a little bit.</p><p>Thanks again for supporting Mixposure everyone!</p><p>Dazed </p>

I try to do something in almost every genre to be as rounded a player as I can ! I have been playing in various local bands for about 15 years. When the digital recording age came along I built a home studio and began to learn recording, Acid Looping and combining those elements together to create grooves and compositions. I have a business and a family but I continue to be a weekend warrior playing in a Classic Rock Band for fun and fuel my passion to write grooves, soundtracks, jingle bites and ambient compositions. This is my Hidden Mission !</p><p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.bilbozodecals.com/BillStratage.jpg" alt="" /></p><p>I also want to thank Frank from <a href="http://www.stratageguitars.com/">Stratage Guitars</a> for providing me the opportunity to own the finest tool for my music compositions. Whether you are playing live or in the studio, Stratage Guitars are nothing short of amazing. I love using my Averon Custom Shop in the studio. It produces any tonal possibility, from sparkly clean warmth to beefy blues tones, smooth jazz sounds, right down to heavy rock grit and everything in between. Stratage produces sonic technology and innovation that re-defines a guitar players true needs, beyond expectation. Truly the most versatile guitar I have ever had the pleasure of playing To learn more about these incredible guitars and basses, visit <a href="http://www.stratageguitars.com/">www.stratageguitars.com</a></p>
<p>This video is from Experience PRS that Rick and I went to. This just shows a CNC machine carving out a nice new PRS guitar body. Have to love how precise it is!! </p><p> </p><p><object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="480" height="385" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/lhclOU5x-B0&rel=1"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/lhclOU5x-B0&rel=1" wmode="transparent"></embed></object></p>
