<p><span style="color: #cc99ff;">harmony comes from the word joint...so in this context i'm using it to discribe the high notes in relation to the low notes. if you want that high note to sound good you got to hit the low note low enough to get the whole harmony (high & low)...........what i'm writing about is making fast harmonies that you can work with others as notes if you like to look at it that way. put together a whole harmony to use as notes. fast harmonies will come in helpful improvising. the origin of the meaning of the word improvise is cool.......sudden, from, Unforseen, from not seen ahead..........the idea is to provide., to see ahead (latin)....see improvisation is a thrill...i'm talking composition here, make sure your highs and lows compliment each other in the <span style="color: #993366;">structure of the song. now that i've helped you you can listen to MILO"S song "<strong><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="http://www.mixposure.com/index.php?t=mixposure_song_player&song_id=17888&band_id=2035">The story</a></span></strong>" and relax knowing that your memory will serve you some but you can reread what i wrote</span></span></p><p><span style="color: #cc99ff;"><span style="color: #993366;"> </span></span></p><p><span style="color: #cc99ff;"><span style="color: #cc99ff;">ha ha ha ha ha ha haa....</span></span></p>

<p>I JUST UPLOADED A NEW INSTRUMENTAL I PUT TOGETHER PLEASE CHECK IT OUT MY FELLOW ARTIST... MUCH LOVE AND PEACE...THANKS</p>
<p>After a long absence, here are three new tracks, 3 movements of a work by a friend, Rhonda Gilmore. "Who is He?" was written by Rhonda about 7 years ago and during the past year I arranged and orchestrated it for her. We wanted it to be done in time for Easter this year, so we just made it. Hope you can have a listen over Easter and be blessed by what you hear.<br />(Hope my long absence won't continue -life has a habit of getting in the way of musical creation)</p>

<p><span style="font-size: small;">A big congrats to Ked aka The Polar Bear! Ked has been working on a lot of music lately and has just taken the checkered flag! As many of you know, Ked is a big Race Fan and a lot of his songs have a racing theme. Ked is now being featured with </span><a href="http://www.theaccelerationarchive.co.uk/acag/acag.html"><span style="font-size: small;">Allard Chrysler Action Group!</span></a><span style="font-size: small;"> For those of you who are not familiar with this, it happens to be the group that is Restoring </span><span><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">Europe’s oldest dragster - the 1961 Allard Chrysler. </span></span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: small;">The below is from the website and it discusses the new tune Ally Blue . You will notice that Nick Mason was also involved. Yes that is the same Nick Mason from Pink Floyd. Please take a moment and read this incredible article. Way to go Ked and thanks for being a part of Mixposure!</span></span></span></p><p> </p><p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Sam Eidy of Michigan engine builder Booth Arons has been a complete Ally project addict since his company first became involved in the restoration of Europe’s oldest dragster - the 1961 Allard Chrysler built by Sydney Allard. Shortly after Booth Arons was appointed the official engine builders for the project, and between locating and chasing down parts suppliers, Sam found himself doodling out some lyrics about the car to the tune of ‘Alley Oop’. Although originally written for a comic strip of the same name by Dallas Frazier who recorded it in 1957, the ‘Alley Oop’ version by the Hollywood Argyles in 1960 is probably the most well known because it made Number 1 in the Billboard Hot 100. But it has also been recorded by other artists such as the Beach Boys and George Thorougood and is familiar to most rock music fans of a ‘certain age’.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Sam e-mailed his new lyrics to others involved with the restoration to get comments, and Project 1320 Chairman Traci Hrudka (Co-Patron of the Allard Chrysler Action Group) sent them on to her guitar playing friend Ked (the Polar Bear) Dieter in Canada whose song Thunder in the Distance by KED and Big Blue Hammer was (and still is) being used on the Project 1320 website. Ked is also Vice President of Mixposure’s MixStreamRadio.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong><img src="http://www.theaccelerationarchive.co.uk/acag/ally_blue/images/KED_live.jpg" border="0" alt="" width="128" height="270" align="left" />A rocker through and through, he normally plays a 95 Gibson LesPaul guitar. But an avid ‘guitar hot-rodder’, and a pro level luthier and guitar technician, he has another ten guitars in his collection, including a unique replica of a Gibson Flying V solid guitar. </strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Being a drag racing and stock car fan he was immediately hooked by the restoration project and Sam’s lyrics. He made contact with Sam and they set about re-working the lyrics, melody and arrangement so there would be no copyright infringements, and laid down a new version of the song that featured Ked’s rocking guitar and vocals plus a Beach Boy styled harmony by Mack Sanders. Ked produced the work and played all the other instruments.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>This was e-mailed around interested parties (including ACAG Co-Patron Nick Mason) who added their own suggestions about the arrangement and mix, resulting in the final version including sounds of the Allard Chrysler recorded in 1964 at Blackbushe in England, plus the voices of Gerry Belton, Sydney Allard and Tommy Ivo recorded at the same meeting. Hence Ally Blue; a unique piece of music about Ally that can be used by the ACAG for promotional purposes to help raise funds.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>It currently features on the 'About ACAG' page of this website and will be used in electronic press release activity. Not only that, it is now available as a download direct via <a target="_self">www.kedrecords.com</a>. A Pay Pal facility is available and half the download fee of 99 cents (US) goes to the Allard Chrysler dragster restoration fund. The song’s lyrics are also laid out in detail.</strong></span></span></p> <p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>At the moment Ked is re-painting his replica Flying V in Allard Chrysler colours, as an extra tribute to Sydney Allard and his important role in spreading drag racing across the Atlantic. We’ll publish photos when it has been completed.</strong></span></span></p><p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Written By</strong></span></span></p><p style="margin-right: 20px; margin-left: 20px;"><span style="font-family: Arial;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;"><strong>Brian Taylor</strong></span></span></p>
