<p style="text-align: justify;">The new album is really coming together. To all the folks who heard "MSJ" and asks WTF?? when they hear the harsh genre shifts in songs like "Birmingham" and "Charmed"... you're really gonna be topsy turvy over this one. 
We really like to explore new directions and try crap that's radically different from what we've already done, so as a stark contrast to the more electronic/industrial tones layered throughout MSJ, the new album will be 94.3% acoustic. (yes, we did the math to get that figure)... ok (no, we didn't... Kris pulled that number out of my ass) So... the new album will be primarily acoustic, with a more live, raw, organic sound, giving it a nice throwback to those days when songs worried more about character and emotion, and less about polish and gimmick.<br /><br />More info coming soon, and maybe even a sample or two, if we can get away with it.<br /><br />Mark</p>

<p><span style="font-size: medium;">My apologies for doing this everyone but the one thing I have always disliked about Mixposure was the Forum. The existing PHPBB forum we have used I thought was great for a number of years. However the functionality was always kind of limited and in visiting other forums over the years I have always thought VBulletin Board Forum was a much nice and professional look. With that we have purchased the forum and have been making minor changes to hit over the last week. Why minor changes you ask? Well they just updated to version 4 and the skins for it are kind of limited at the moment. So we will give it some time and wait for one we like to purchase or just customize our own. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">We have moved the posts and users over but the bad news is that the avatars did not make it and the passwords have to be reset. So with that in mind, when you register for Mixposure, we have software in place that creates your forum user_id and password at the same time. When you change your password, it will also change your forum password. To access the new forum, you will need to go into your control panel > on the right click on Account Info > then change your password to the same password you are using right now. You will now be able to log into the forum. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">We will be adding some more features to the forum like a shoutbox and a few other things over the next few days. The address of the new forum is <a href="http://www.mixposure.com/forums/" target="_blank">www.mixposure.com/forums/</a> and we will eventually redirect the old url to the new. I do want to leave the existing forum up for a week or so so people can grab their avatars if they were not saved. Signatures came over but you may need to resize them. You can also add images to your signature now. Please keep it clean!!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If you have any login issues, please send a message to me or RWK and we will see what we can do to correct it. Pardon our dust again and forgive yet another upgrade!!</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dazed </span></p><p> </p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-size: large;">****Arcade System Added****</span></span></span></p>

<p>Well, we had a great start with our January Artist of the Month, and as the year continues to gain momentum, we turn the page now to February 2010's featured Artist.-- Larry Talbot aka "Wherewolfe" of TLT50. Here at MIXposure we shamelessly boast the talent of this veteran artist, who easily expands the boundaries of multiple genres. Within the realm of Wherewolfe Studio Productions, you will find a most exciting collection of dynamic, high-quality musicianship, playful mixing and professional quality arrangement and production. He produces a wide spectrum of instrumental driven original music, not bound by genres-- from ambient chill, experimental electro blues, deep house, drum & bass, to new age, soulful funk and Jam Band.<br /><br />You can view his bio and listen to his music here at MIXposure, on the TLT50 artist page, in addition to his studio website at <a href="http://www.tlt50.com/">http://www.tlt50.com</a>., which talks about how he learned and experimented with many of the sounds he continues to produce today. Writing and recording music became Larry's passion, and he admits its powerful force in his life.<br /><br />The keyboard and musical prowess of Larry Talbot has always been front and center to the veterans here at MIXposure and elsewhere, as demonstrated by his steady stream of collaborations with various others. His music has also captured much attention from our newest artists and listening members alike. It is timeless and classic, though something that never gets dull or complacent. With his style and ability, Larry always has something fresh to offer to the listening audience, as well as being a most sought-after collaborating partner. An artist and musician in the true sense of the words, I hope you will take the journey under the full moon, and wander the streets of MIXposure to discover the legend of the "Wolf," Larry Talbot, at <a href="http://www2.mixposure.com/TLT50/music.php">http://www2.mixposure.com/TLT50/music.php</a>. <br /><br /><br />Congratulations to Larry from the MIXposure Team.</p>
