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.

Toronto’s Still Life Still lead vocalist Brendan Saarinen explains it this way, “We wrote it in the dead of winter after a year of demoing and scrapping a lot of songs. It’s about breaking rituals and routines; how love can take you to strange, sometimes messed up places. When we finished recording it, there was a weird vibe in the air, like we had started fresh but knew we’d always been there.”

The first single “Burial Suit,” comes from the STS’s forthcoming LP Mourning Trance, which drops August 20 through Arts & Crafts.

NYC’s band Ra Ra Riot is known for penning intelligent wistful song with the capacity to stabbed you in the bulls-eye of you soul. The new single release “When I Dream,” fits the bill. The track is taken from their upcoming full-length “Beta Love,” due to drop January 22, 2013 on Barsuk Records (USA / Europe), Hostess (Japan) and Arts & Crafts (Canada). Peace.

Earlier this month (May 16th), Montreal three-piece Parlovr released their soul-spacious 2nd LP Kook Soul and it is a wonderment to behold. The trio formed in ’05 and they’ve been up to no good ever since. Listen to their track, “Holding On To Something,” to get a feel for their interpretation of clever punkish-pop. You can cop it on iTunes and believe you me the pleasure will be all yours. Oh yeah, you can also stream their latest album Kook Soul via the band’s myspace. So, if you like the band Ok, Go, then this one is a shoo-in for long summers days of sonic enjoyment. Peace.

I first reviewed Zulu Winter way back in October ’11,  and today I’m just as impressed with the band as the was then. Now, with the band’s latest single release “Silver Tongue,” I’m just plain excited! The new song is taken from the  band’s forthcoming debut LP Language out on the veritable Arts & Crafts label. You can also pre-order the new album Language at Amazon and iTunes. Peace.

Yesterday (February 28th) Maya Postepski and Robert Alfons the Toronto-based duo Trust dropped their 2012 full length debut TRST. And so I thought you may like a listen. I mean, I could be so wrong because you may not like robust and darkly groovy musical fare that’ll make you move something otherwise used for sitting on. Oh, I am such the mischievous music reviewer aren’t I? Don’t answer that. You can purchase TRST on iTunes or Amazon. Peace.
