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.

our sunday best: dustin tebbutt

 

 
Aussie song craftsman Dustin Tebbutt is new to me and although that isn’t necessarily a ringing endorsement it’s okay. Because once you listen to the music nothing else will matter anyway. His latest and forthcoming work will come to us in the form of the mini-album Home release. To date we have his study in all things tranquil and adulatory. Apt examples of such would be his Illuminate single and two splendid previous works: The Breach and Bones EPs.
 

 
Nevermind the Justin Vernon comparisons, for they will surely have their say. But where Mr. Vernon (Bon Iver) is mystical Dustin Tebbutt is straight forward, more linear and less variegated.

Dustin’s approach floats lyric melodies like spun out and silken emotion. His music packs too a well balanced temperance of beauty with a rippling tension just beneath. Altogether not dissimilar to the powerful formation of a burgeoning star viewed from a safe distance. After the jump I have also included both the audio and lyrics for the track Home.

And now you know why Dustin Tebbutt is our Sunday Best featured artist. The mini-album Home drops September 18th courtesy of Narvik Records. Peace.

Home – Lyrics

You laugh at dead ends
You’re the only one I know
You’re not fond of chances
Any more than letting go

I’m here to keep the ghosts away
So lie down in my arms
‘Cause we’re becoming home
Don’t fly out of my arms

Your ribs like branches
To keep the glowing close
You’re not fond of chances
Not the only one I know

You breathe in with me
I know you’re keeping face
Lost to the celling
You won’t hear me say

I’m here to keep the ghosts away…

As we’re becoming home
You fly out of my arms

If left to their own devices your ears will gravitate towards this beautiful flaming voice.

Feel the chill wind blowing? Wait, it is only the music.

Brooklyn-based chillwave duo MS MR (Lizzy Plapinger & Max Hershenow) do exactly what I suppose they want to do, and that’s take listeners to a place of pristine juxtapositions. The docile vocals laid delicately atop quaint and demure production. Their ‘Candy Bar Creep Show EP‘ is a collection of four songs which only hint at the possibility of this duo. I sense a bit of restraint, and I hope that it is unleashed on their debut album release. Oh by the way, after the jump I included the MS MR Track Addict Vol. II for your listening pleasure. I’m such a nice guy. Peace.

Although the song “Bones,” by Male Bonding came out earlier (mid-2011), it’s even better covering my ears with remnants of summer on an otherwise gloomy Michigan day. The fuzzed out guitar and banging drums punching holes in lead-singer John Arthur Webb‘s vocals, or is it the other way around? Regardless, it’s a sliver of what I did last summer; a sound memento if you will. No matter, I welcome it. If you haven’t, check out the rest of the Endless Now album, and make your own ‘good times’ memories. Peace.

Also, hears their “Tame The Sun” video too. Enjoy
