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.

San Fransisco based indie dream pop rock duo Cathedrals release new material with their latest track Howling. The track wafts into your ear space with a low thrumming bass line intertwined with atypical fingered guitar work. But it is the “get to me every time” vocals of Ms. Brodie Jenkins that is the hook in the fishes mouth. The band is finishing up work on their yet untitled album, and hopefully it will be another reason 2016 will be the best 2016 ever! Oh wait! Before you go make sure you head on over to the Hype Machine and give the Howling track all of your ❤. Peace.

Cathedrals’ Howling: Lyrics
 
Hot night coming
Keep the car running
Lavender fingers
Swallow my pollen

God, I fell into your spell
On the rite of god we fell
You would flash an eyelid babe
You had me howling

Caught, I swam into your skin
On a night you let me under your sin
You had me howling
You had me howling

Who oh oh, blush
Who oh oh, blush

Golden siren
Under exposing
Come lay your weakness down
On the floor in the backseat

God, I fell into your spell
On the rite of god we fell
You would flash an eyelid babe
You had me howling

Caught, I swam into your skin
On the night you led me under your sin
You had me howling
You had me howling

Who oh oh, blush
Who oh oh, blush
Who oh oh, blush

Under your spell.

The singer/songwriter Rachel Thomasin reached out to me through Twitter and boy I’m glad she did. How else would I have come to know the honest beauty of her songcraft? The Gravitate EP was released back in October, but nonetheless the songs have a timeless feel to them as they cascade over your eardrums like ancient waters washing over primordial stone. But, the songs have the opposite effect, instead of wearing you down like the ideal particle they enliven and rejuvenate. All in all, these are seven songs you’ll welcome into your head and heart, and eventually cherish. Also, in case you missed her March release, R. Thomasin, reach back and get yourself another earful of joyful noise. Peace.

Dominique LeJeune has the kind of voice which sounds like it recently escaped from a candy wrapper, dripping sticky sweet footprints all the ways to your ears. And although its a voice of spilling all the colors of the entire Now & Laters lineup there is also fragility and honesty there too. Her debut WAKE EP courtesy of Community Records is a collection of 7-songs putting her heart and comparable songwriting skills on full display. Ms. LeJeune hails from New Orleans and has been kickin’ around the local music scene for a while now. I like her and I hope you do too. Peace.

Trans- Records artist and Minneapolis, MN resident Sombear (electro-pop artist Brad Hale) just dropped his latest single, “Love You In The Dark”. It’s a sultry number with a hypnotic appeal and sensual vibe. The track is taken from his soon to be released Love You In The Dark LP, out July 23rd. Hey, I’m still recovering from his earlier release Incredibly Still. Peace.

The skinny is Saksatchewan began as the project of Orlando, Florida based multi-instrumentalist Chandler Strang. Later on Gery, Dave & Austin joined the fray. Long story (or at least convoluted) short they’ve named themselves after a Canadian province. The makers of a beautifully unique blend of dream-pop have released their debut LP Occasion via Father / Daughter Records. The album is a mix of Pretzel-shaped melancholy, 80 British pop and 90’s white boy soul. I like it. Check out the tracks Spellbound and Possession after the jump. And, you can cop yours at iTunes. Peace.

If words aren’t enough to inspire action… then we are lost.

Whether you are lover or beloved. On this slight and chill Michigan morning it is Sunday and the music matches the countenance of the weather and the occasion. Behold.

A song so slow and sweet it leaves scratches upon my soul’s back.

Chelsea Jade Metcalf is Watercolours and the track Under, melts like slow dripping icicles licked tenderly by winter sunshine… GAH! Metaphors can be so naught,y but luckily the music is pristine and genuine. After the jump check out the lyrics too. Peace.
 
Slow breath
Eyes down
I can hear my heart
And it hammers hard
It’s because you brought me here

And suddenly
The ground’s under my back
Instead of underfoot
And overhead is hovering
What I just overheard
And love is the word

Slow breath
(Be careful)
Eyes closed
(Don’t you fall)
I can hear my hear
And it hammers hard
It’s because you brought me here

(Be careful)

Oh we were treading night light
And the quiet
Like a sheet
Began to billow down
And it held us down
Oh it held us down
It held us down
Oh

I stood against the sky
And this is how I saw the world
And how the world saw me
As quiet as a memory
The light held on to where we’d been

Slow breath
Eyes closed
I can hear my hear
And it hammers hard
It’s because you brought me here
