Embeds allowing bloggers to easily embed videos from Distrify. Just go to any Distrify film page or player and copy the URL. Paste that URL in any WordPress blog and it will automatically be converted to an embedded Distrify player. If you are logged in to distrify.com it will automatically add your affiliate tracking code to your embeds. Make sure you turn on Auto-embeds in your WP settings and also make sure that the URL is on its own line and not hyperlinked (clickable when viewing the post). The plugin also extracts the still image from the film and saves it as the Featured Image for the post. This actually works for any Embed (not just Distrify) that you embed into your WordPress blog.

photocomfort | not love

Photocomfort puts some skin in the music game with their new single Not Love. The airy vocals of Justine Bowe fills your ear with cotton candy soaked in the groove liquor and funk molasses of R&B with flourishes of a rebellious rock.

Stylistically the category I would associate Photocomfort with is… it really doesn’t matter. I like them. Period. This trio from Boston definitely has evolved and has recaptured my attention, but then again they always do. However, this time out they’ve crafted something less folk, though no less meaningful. This new work has shed the demur coquettish nature of previous efforts and now outwardly and very purposely flirts with you. A song that looks you directly in the eye and isn’t afraid of a little body contact, and a bit of sweat. Bold. Brilliant. Perfect.

Now, depending on what future gems they put out on their next body of work, and if this is any indication, well, the makings of a full-on love affair is predicted. A nod to fellow accomplices Gabe Goodman and Will Radin, you’re not forgotten, but ladies first. Peace.

Band: Photocomfort
Single: Not Love

The Weeknd has been building tremendous hype for the past couple of years. So naturally there is a great deal of anticipation for his debut trilogy album. Unfortunately, the minus is his debut release contains material we’ve already heard on his previous mixtapes. The positive, is the songs are remastered for this release. Yeah,it’s a small thing. but the big plus is the addition of three new songs, “Twenty Eight”, “Valerie” and “Till Dawn (Here Comes The Sun)”. You can cop the trilogy via itunes. peace.

Lyrics:

I left my girl back home
I don’t love her no more
And she’ll never fucking know that
These fucking eyes that I’m staring at
Let me see that ass
Look at all this cash
And I emptied out my cards to her
Now I’m fucking leaning on that

Bring your love baby I could bring my shame
Bring the drugs baby I could bring my pain
I got my heart right here
I got my scars right here
Bring the cups baby I could bring the drank
Bring your body baby I could bring you fame
And that’s my motherfucking words too
Just let me motherfucking love you

Listen ma I’ll give you all I got
Get me off of this
I need confidence in myself
Listen ma I’ll give you all of me
Give me all of it
I need all of it to myself

So tell me you love me
Only for tonight
Only for one night
Even though you don’t love me
Just tell me you love me
I’ll give you what I need
I’ll give you all of me
Even though you don’t love me

Let me see you dance
I love to watch you dance
Take you down another level
And get you dancing with the devil
Take a shot of this
But I’m warning you
I’m on that shit that you can’t smell baby
So put down your perfume

Listen ma I’ll give you all I got
Get me off of this
I need confidence in myself
Listen ma I’ll give you all of me
Give me all of it
I need all of it to myself

Let the bass creep curiously into her ears. Around her throat it will kiss reckless beats down in-between her … Yes, this remix is a bit X-rated and as funky as it can get. Paper Diamond is skillful with cutting open a song and inserting nuclear powered artificial hearts like a surgeon at the top of his game. Watch it nah! Don’t get to close to the speakers they’re possessed with the P to the D and his beats will cut cha. Here, Alex B has taken The Weeknd‘s already bangin’ track and poured rocket fuel all over it and the song ignites; like Hendricks taunting flames over his Strat. But we ain’t roasting marshmallows around here (or guitars). No, we’re bringing bodies together like puzzle pieces. Paper diamond + The Weeknd = Vicious! Like I said, “Watch it nah!” Peace.

Jordan Kelley and Jason Huber are at it again and as promiscuous as ever, musically speaking that is. A good tune gets around, and it just can’t help making a reputation for itself, traveling from one ear to another. J.K. and J.H. have a knack for taking a song and transforming each note into pure seduction. Collectively known as Cherub these guys “do” music like porn stars have sex. And like their namesake implies they are spreading, if not love, then a whole lot of pheromone laden passion around your ear-space. With their latest release “Monogamy,” the first single from their forthcoming Mom & Dad LP they are setting a tone. And the tone is both risqué and stylishly ribald; and when you’re talking about bump-n-grind music those are good attributes to have. Cherub is making a name for themselves as the music to soundtrack booty chasing nights and covert rendezvous to meet up with your favorite friend-with-benefits. So, pimps and pimpettes listen up. Cherub is playing your song. Peace.
