Hi everyone!

Just an off-topic reflection of how this change of season *feels*.
I’m definitely aware that our members south of the equator are having a different experience, and my gratitude and appreciation for them is as equally strong.

I’m grateful for how far we’ve come as a community.
In the face of adversity and skepticism, we continue to thrive.

This Autumn, ccMixter is going to be experiencing a renaissance, I just *know* it.
My faith and resolve is based on how far we’ve come, and the continued devotion and diligence which our community provides, much of which is behind the scenes.

I’m seeing so much improvement and involvement in our community!
Our library of remixes, samples, and a cappellas continues to grow with something for *everyone*.

There is one thing I cannot stress enough: we are listening to what you do and appreciate what you share, even if we don’t provide a review or that wonderful “recommend” boost :)
Mixters are working on remixes *all* the time, and waiting to upload them when they’re ready.
It’s like an ongoing, unofficial Secret Mixter :)

Speaking of which,
We would *love* to have you as part of our Celebratory Secret Mixter !
Everyone is invited—especially if you haven’t participated before.
It’s a wonderful experience where you secretly focus your remixing talents on your assigned user and release your work at the same time as everyone else involved.
It is a fantastic opportunity to get the attention of so many Mixters at once—not a bad payoff for one remix, eh? :)

To all of those who donate to ccMixter, your contributions do more than just keep the lights on here.
They provide us all with hope and encouragement, especially when faced with seemingly insurmountable challenges.
Thank you so much—every donation counts :)

With kindness,
Apoxode
