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.

Finally! One of the best tracks of 2011, “Best Life Of My Time” by Space Flakes has some optical eye candy. I must say the video is as trippy as the song is good. The video looks like the love child of Dr. Seuss and Louis Carol. However, it turns out to be some surreal animation inspired by Emery Hawkins circa 1977. Somehow it is fitting as the perfect representation of rampant, and blatant Western consumptionism. Yet, in the end it is the perfect visual accompaniment to Space Flakes’ sonically superior musical swag. Party on! Peace.

The Fiber is Sjaak Kassies. I am familiar with his wonderful vocal work with the band Obsidian, and he is known to provide vox for one of my favorite projects Space Flakes. However, he stands pretty good on his own two feet plucking gorgeously on his acoustic guitar and singing his heart out. After the jump, check out his latest single release “Lead” and it is a right fine piece of work. Peace.




 

 
“Lead” Lyrics

Shrouded in fear
See through the heavy cloth
Keep tearing a whole
The same ground that is no more
We question the same lies
And just let it be
A truce will be met
You’ll get what I’ll get

Lead the way
Don’t leave and chase
Greed and haste
Don’t go

I stand before you
Scattered all over the common ground
I will not surrender
Keep trying and wanting to fail

Lead the way
Don’t leave and chase
Greed and haste
Don’t go.

]]> There is a labyrinth. It twists and turns. Down here the air is earthen and sodden with mystery. You chanced upon it. An echo at first. Then it grows. Upon a stair you climb. Deeper. Lower. The balustrade vibrates, yet you hold tight. There it is. Pulsing. A soft beckoning light, you walk in a trance towards it. You’ve entered the DJ’s sanctum sanctorum; and the frenzied glory of it all bathes you in total euphoria.

You know the feeling when you hear something for the very first time and it bowls you over, right? Well, this is definitely one of those moments, and this is one of those songs. With “Best Life of My Time” musical architects the Koning der Nederspaceaka aka Space Flakes fabulously synthesize  a sound edifice which is more than aesthetically pleasing to the ear (if perchance I.M Pei were a maker of music he’d sound like this). This track is filled with cunning beats, serpentine synths, and a bass so seductive it should come with a triple-X rating. Take this journey into sound, because the big wet erogenous zone between your ears will love it. Peace.
