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.

Without you dear sun, all would perish. With you dear sun, all is aglow.

 
Icelandic born Disa Jakobs is a singer and songwriter who left Reykjavik, Iceland to live in Copenhagen. Disas music is about exploring and expanding the boundaries of pop music. She’s inspired by the wild, Scandinavian nature but also by the likes of fellow contemporary and alternative artists such as Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Brian Eno and Fever Ray. Disas Music shares the qualities of her native country. It is cold yet compelling and you always sense an underlying risk of eruption. Check out her self-directed video for the single release Sun courtesy of Tigerspring Records. Peace.
 

 
Lyrics:
Triggered by shockwaves
You are the Sun in center
You illuminate our lives
There is no living without you

Spiral motion around you
Celestial form of fire

When my heart stops beating
They’ll blend my ash with fireworks
and shoot me up to where you are
into millions of love stars

Spiral motion around you
Celestial form of fire.

I love, among other things, guitar bands. While that may translate into something else to other folk, it basically means to me bands who employ lots of guitar work in their music. Simple enough, no? The Icelandic band Sudden Weather Change makes the cut when it comes to rockin’ the fuck out. To my ears their music is one part Sonic Youth and some ratio of The Pixies. Hey, that’s just what I think. That said, check out their song “The Whaler”. This 7″ EP was released June 19th of 2010 by Kimi Records. This album has two songs, “The Thinliner” and “The Whaler”. Let me know if this kicks butt or not. Also, check ’em out on Facebook for additional tracks. Peace.

“Thin Liner // The Whaler” 2009-2010

FM Belfast - How To Make Friends

Hey, it’s Friday and to kick it off the best day of the work week I am posting the entire debut album of fun-rockin FM Belfast. FMB is one of those bands which instill perpetual happiness in whomever happens to listen to their music. At times channeling Dr. Seuss, and at other times sounding as if someone has spiked the punch with um…syrup (Ask Weezy). I like the simple structure of the songs, and although the lyrics can become nonsensical at times, it all comes together and somehow works in the end. This is the album which turned the heads of so many, and likely still winning over new fans even as I pen this. How To Make Friends is one of my favorite albums to listen too. Period. I have referred this album to I don’t know how many people since it’s initial release back in 2010, I almost feel like the bands unofficial unpaid publicist. Anywho, check it out and enjoy. Also, FM Belfast’s recent release Don’t Want To Sleep has been out since Mid-June and is laden with even more clever fun-loving music. Let the party begin. Peace
