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.

If ever one could lasso a cumulus cloud and melt it, then drip drop the soft rain glow against one’s ears I am pretty certain it would like replicate Sally Shapiro’s giant-sized petite vocals. Here, Johan Agebjörn and Ms. Shapiro take the Electric Youth track The Best Thing and treat it like a bejeweled whisper. Its lovely stuff.

Johan Agebjörn’s latest solo album, Notes; is a dreamy, melancholic and mostly instrumental collection of songs. The music is quite different to the music he has produced earlier, both with Sally Shapiro and alone. The nexus for the album was the electric piano sound of the Casio MT­52, a cheap keyboard from the early 80s that was mostly used on an amateur level. It’s used (together with other sounds) on almost every track on the album.
 

 
Okay. Chalk it up to a compulsion I couldn’t resist. I am sharing another Johan Agebjörn track, co-produced by Tommy and featuring voice crush of the moment Sally Shapiro. Give Why Did I Say Goodbye the once over and I know you’ll be enamored in no time flat. Peace.

PS I Love You are a couple of guys (Paul Saulnier and Benjamin Nelson) from Ontario, Canada who have a tendency of wearing their northern hearts on their northern sleeves. And for lots of reasons, it is a good and noble thing to do. Why? Well, for starters as listeners we get the end results of their lived lives. How they interpret the seconds, hours and days of their existence. It’s all there, the piteous lows and the dizzying highs. An artist’s thoughts dipped into the ink; the blood, sweat and tears written into musical journal entries.

It is a fundamental thing we humanoids do. We let life in and boy does it have an affect. Musicians are a blessing, their experiences, shared and otherwise, manifest in and through their art; to be inspired by and to inspire others through the music. It’s a beautiful thing.

The original track For Those Who Stay is a somber affair. It is simple, dark and brooding. Safe. It was an anchor, remixed it is a rocket ship lifting our feet off the ground. This is one of those “a change is gonna’ come” moments. And so, here it goes with the likes of Teen Daze, Young Galaxy, and Princess Century meddling with things again.

The kind and gentle song you once knew, in the hands of the above mentioned, gets shape shifted, re-worked and surgically augmented. And now, may I present to you the once dour and unadorned girl. TA-DA! Well, she’s a sexy beast now, and she knows how to dance too.

All this is done in advance of the third studio album release by PS I Love You, For Those Who Stay courtesy of Paper Bag Records, out July 22nd. Get the FREE DOWNLOAD of the Remix EP here.

Also, to listen to the rousing PS I Love You summer fun playlist: A Nice Journey head over to our good friends at 8tracks radio. Peace.

]]> It’s not hard to reason why one would enjoy listening to Winter Gloves. The foursome from Canada makes great noise that is not only easy to listen to, but their music has the blood of early alternative rock flowing through its veins. That’s a plus in my book no matter what. You’ll discern more than a few visceral references to late 80s and early 90s alt music, think Echo & The Bunnymen, and Depeche Mode for instance. But musical influences aside these guys know how to pen and play music that stays in your head long after you’ve hit stop. The music on their 2010 release All Red begs to be revisited and played anew and often. This collection of songs is unadulterated effortless joy. I have included the video for “Dancing My Heart Out”, and after you hear it I think you’ll want to seek out more of what Winter Gloves has to offer. Peace.
