No Bah Humbug with ccMixter's New Holiday Album "Season of "Gratitude"

The newest ccMixter release, Season of Gratitude, is now available on iTunes, Amazon and TuneTrack. This winter-holiday double-album is anything but traditional and has been called "a breath of fresh winter air for listeners weary of the same holiday tunes year after year."

The Season of Gratitude double album is a curation of the tracks from the ccMixter Gift of Song remix event of winter 2012, re-mastered by ccMixter artist Copperhead for optimum sound quality. The double album genre hops into pop, rock, electronica, funk, reggae, punk, and everything in between, and yet the collection is one enjoyable, cohesive listen.

Season of Gratitude A Sides and B Sides are both available on iTunes and Amazon.

• iTunes Season of Gratitude A Sides
• iTunes Season of Gratitude B Sides
• Amazon Season of Gratitude A Sides
• Amazon Season of Gratitude B Sides

For Green Room supporters of ccMixter on TuneTrack, Season of Gratitude A Sides and B Sides, and their accompanying artbooks, are available for download in the highest quality form. Blue Room Supporters will receive a double-album physical CD printed with soy-inks on 100% recycled cardstock with biodegradable shrink-wrap.

The Season of Gratitude double CD is also available at select locations in the Los Angeles area.

ccMixter & Jamendo Release Double Holiday Album

Check out The Best Time of the Year - A & B Sides!

ccMixter & Jamendo artists teamed up in 2011 to create holiday music together via internet remix culture with the 'Tis the Season Remix Project. With more than 100 original tracks in created in a couple of weeks, ccMixter & Jamendo paired songs together with two common themes -- the joy of the Christmas holiday season, and songs that take a different approach to the holidays.

The Best Time of the Year -  a special double release holiday album - was co-produced by Snowflake, Copperhead, Kara Square, Sackjo22 and go1dfish, artists on the ccMixter remix community, in cooperation with Nicole Maroutsos of Jamendo.

The A Sides on The Best Time of the Year are more straight-forward Christmas tracks, though most are originals. The B Sides are for those that may celebrate something different during the holidays, or perhaps don't really celebrate at all. Either way, there are songs everyone will love on these albums!
The Best Time of the Year albums are offered as free downloads in a variety of formats (including lossless).

The project began in the ccMixter & Jamendo remix project, Tis The Season. Check out all of the great mixes from the project HERE!
Don't forget to check out the official press release!

Agent Blues Secret Mixter

Mix, and get Remixed, in Secret!

"Forget me not with September blues
Hide my face but play the truth."

With September comes the blue of Forget-me-not flowers and the blues of summer fading into fall. Secret agents don Anonymous masks and speak their beliefs. The equinox represents equality -- and balance of day and night, dark and light. Music touches all of these emotions, especially the blues! So tune your guitar, warm your vocal chords, sharpen your composition pen and get ready to cut and re-create!

You have through Sept 2 to sign up! Assignments will go out Sept 3 and upload day will be Sept 16.
