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.

When an EP spans the distance of three songs, it may just mean they’re too potent. Therefore the meager dose is all your heart can take.

 

bilby + cuckoos // split ep

 
Bilby and Cuckoos are both Australian artists and they have released an affectionate and admirable 3-track EP. According to a press release Bilby (Harry Moxham) hails from the beaches of Northern Sydney, and he makes his style of lo-fi folk-pop from the comfort and confines of his bedroom. So, maybe that’s the reason the songs he produces sound so intimate, with the frailty of weather-worn and honest confession. The artist Cuckoos aka Sam Wotherspoon makes his contribution with the track Strange Daze, it’s a slow dirge wrapped in wispy sensuousness; the foggy outskirts of a forlorn heart. This EP is a treasure. Love it, play it. Peace.

Why waste money on psychotherapy when you can listen to Lapalux.

Lapalux recently put out a doublet of EPs ‘When Your Gone‘ (02/06/12) and ‘Some Other Time‘ (10/15/12) via Brainfeeder.  Peace.

Dum Dum Girls

There are many reasons why I like the Dum Dum Girls. What’s the main reason? I can’t get enough of the sultry vibrato provided by lead-singer Kristen Gundred, aka as Dee Dee Penny or just Dee Dee for short. The California band fist caught my attention in 2010 with the release of their debut album I Will Be. Then in 2011 DDG dropped a followup EP featuring the songs He Gets Me High and the dreamy There Is a Light That Never Goes Out by legendary alternative U.K. band The Smiths. Although most reviewers allude Blondie as an influence, I hear more than a hint of Chrissie Hynde of the Pretenders. Also, if your love Dee Dee check out super band Zodiacs you will not be disappointed. By the way, the latest Dum Dum Girls album Only In Dreams was released September 27th. Peace.
