hooyoosay is a remarkable band making happy tunes. The only thing that bothers me is that I could not find the country of origin from this awesome project. At first listen, the tracks sound like jingles with electronica meets country kind of style, but then again it doesn’t sound so. It is hard to categorize their music, but they surely make catchy tunes rooted in the beauty of pop music.
My rule of thumb when listening to albums is just to listen. No need to analyze, but just enjoy the music for music’s sake. This seems to be the principle behind the album "Don’t you lie to me". But, like I said, who knows? The title track is catchy with hints of chanson, vintage and vaudeville pop. ”There’s two kinds of people that I just can’t stand, and that’s a lying woman and a sneaking man, so don’t you lie to me.”… The chorus is easy to singalong and the instrumental arrangement is excellent.
Another notable track in this release is the instrumental "Yooplaaa!". Um... again this is hard to categorize, but it is beautiful. I love the mixing of the bass and drums because they really sound full. The overall sound design is slick, clean and glossy. Oh, did I already mention slick? No need to argue. Just grab the album.

I realize that Mix is geared more for other genres of music other than country. I don't understand it....but I realize it. So, since I seem to be the biggest advocate (I said "advocate" ) of country music on here, I have to ask. Why is it that the "Tag Cloud" box on the main screen has a bunch of genres in it but not country??
Yvonne adds her sensual, sweet, soulful.....vibes,,, to an older track of mine. Is it hot.....YES !

Thanks sweet friend,

I know there are a handful of users out there using Windows 8 which apparently has issues with Mix. Fender Bender set the browser in IE10 to compatibility mode and everything was working correctly. So if you have Windowws 8 and are seeing some issues with the site, please change your browser to compatibility mode (click the little paper looking icon in the address bar) for now. We should have a fix in a day or two.
Thanks,

Hola gente, hace bastante que no actualizÁbamos con noticias de la banda. Pasó casi un año desde la última vez que nos conectamos con uds. Precisamente fue cuando lanzamos nuestro último single "To Far Horizons". Se preguntarán que hemos estado haciendo durante todo este tiempo. Ensayos semanales, enfocados en una playlist corta quizás, pero que suena ajustada. Mientras tanto, fuimos agregando viejas canciones al repertorio y, empezamos a tocar una que es totalmente nueva. Se llama "A Letter From The Past" y esperamos poder mostrarles pronto de lo que se trata! No todas las noticias son positivas... Debido a cuestiones personales uno de nuestros guitarristas, Fito Gallo dejó de ser un miembro estable de la banda. Sin embargo, puede ser que en el futuro reaparezca como invitado. Le deseamos los mejores éxitos para él, ya que es un gran amigo de la casa. Para finalizar, les prometo fotos y quizás videos de nuestros ensayos.. pronto...

Just a heads up that if you are looking for the comments box that was on the side of the main page, I moved it to the message are here. Just click the Site Comments button!
I am looking in to Private Notes also. If you are seeing an Invalid Message, make sure you select the user name when you type it in. This is a "Live Search" field so as you enter the name in the search, it will autopopulate. Just click on the name of the person you want to send it to. If you prefer to type it in, right now the field is case sensitive so if you message "admin" you will see an error but if you type "Admin" it will work fine.
Some people have asked why they are unable to message everyone on the site. This is simply a security feature. If you belong to Twitter, we follow the same rules. You can only message people you follow or people following you. This prevents morons like Kenny from Nigeria wanting to promote your music as he spams several thousand users on Mixposure.

Ok guys, it's been a while since our last update... Almost a year ago when we released the single "To Far Horizons". So... What happened until now??... We've been rehearsing weekly, trying to achieve a short tight playlist. In the meantime, we started to play a new song called "A Letter From The Past". We are very looking forward to show you how it sounds!! But It's not all good news. Due to personal issues one of our guitar players, Fito Gallo isn't a permanent member anymore, though he could join us in the future as a guest musician. That's all guys, but don't worry, we'll be updating more often from now on!

Hey Everyone!
We are coming up to Halloween again and I wanted to remind everyone of the 8th Annual Halloween Song Submission. It may be the ninth I am losing track. Anyway, we wanted to give everyone some time to work on the tunes.
How does it work? Just create a spooky halloween tune! It can be any genre you like and can have vocals or no vocals. This is also an excellent opportunity to collaborate with some other Mixposure.com artists.
So please post any questions you may have. Let's hold off on posting any songs until October 1st. We will post more information around that time including what Genre to use. We will setup a special genre to make the songs easier to find.
Thanks,
Todd
