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.

Thom Yorke is known to surprise as much as he is known for pushing the boundaries of what a song can be. On Friday, September 26th he did the unexpected, he dropped the Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes album! This is monster! And for Radiohead fans, diehard and casual alike, the joy is evident and immediate. And it isn’t just the 8-track release that is pure joie de vivre. It is the method of madness that is groundbreaking! Mr. Yorke has chosen to disseminate the album to the masses through “the front door” in a way that is pretty innovative and totes badass too. Read on.

As an experiment Thom Yorke and company are using a new version of BitTorrent to distribute the Tomorrow’s Modern Box record. The new Torrent files have a pay gate to access a bundle of files. Stay with me because this is as uncomplicated as it is beautiful and brilliant. The files can be anything, but in this case it is an ‘album’. The Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes album to be exact.

FYI: The track and video, “A Brain In A Bottle,” is frenetic badassery unparallelled. Just sayin’.

It’s an experiment to see if the mechanics of the system are something that the general public can get its collective head around, as in “if we build it will they come?” No surprise, they are coming in droves, me included.

If it works well it could be an effective way of handing some control of internet commerce back to the very people who are creating the work. As with Radiohead’s In Rainbows (2007) release with the ‘name your own price’ option this to is an instant “game changer” of monumental proportions. No lie.

Artist: Thom Yorke
Album: Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes
Buy Deluxe Vinyl Release

Tracklisting:

SIDE A
a brain in a bottle
guess again!
interference
the mother lode
SIDE B
truth ray
there is no ice (for my drink)
pink section
nose grows some

So, you may ask, “What is the point?” Well, it is quite simple. The philosophy behind the technology is to place the power and control in the hands of the creative force(s) behind the art. Enabling those people who make either music, video or any other kind of digital content to sell it themselves. Boom! There is is.

Bypassing the self elected gate-keepers. There isn’t a middleman, middlewoman nor a middle middling anything. Just the artist and those willing to purchase their beautiful art.

If it works anyone can do this exactly as Mr. Yorke has done. Because the torrent mechanism does not require any server uploading or hosting costs or ‘cloud’ malarkey. It’s a self-contained embeddable shop front. Period.  How cool beans is that? Very.

The network not only carries the traffic, it also hosts the file. The file is in the network.

Get the BitTorrent app. Then get Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes. NOTE: The BitTorrent Bundle app is not currently compatible with Amazon’s Kindle Fire line of products.

Don’t let the black and white photo fool you Atoms For Peace is a polychromatic wonderburst of kaleidoscopic proportions.

When it comes to modern contemporary pop music Thom Yorke has the Midas touch. Or so it seems. Mr. Yorke has a penchant for dance (the video for Lotus Flower anyone?. The Flea/Yorke project known as Atoms For Peace is anything but another permutation of Radiohead, it stretches and shape-shifts into ever interesting and enjoyable plateaus …well, let me shut-up and just let your ears & eyes enjoy the music. If you haven’t known the pleasure, you can cop the Atoms For Peace’s album AMOK here. Peace.

Atoms For Peace is indeed playing peek-a-boo with our feelings, and we love it.

Since 2009 Thom Yorke (Radiohead) has been baiting us, perhaps not intentionally but nonetheless we’re baited. Atoms For Peace to date has only revealed two songs, “Default” and “Judge Jury And Executioner,” there are rumors of war (in the studio) of a February 2013 full-length album ‘Amok’ of which you can pre-order via iTunes. Until them check out the Dazed Digital Mixtape by none other than our favorite conjurer of radiantly elliptic music Mr. T. Yorke. Peace.


 
Tracklist:
 
Before Your Very Eyes
Default
Ingenue
Dropped
Unless
Stuck Together Pieces
Judge Jury And Executioner
Reverse Running
Amok

I get real touchy when folks try to mess with the music of my favorite band. So, I was pleasantly surprised to hear the Radiohead TKOL 1234567 Remix, and I actually love it (well, most of it). Here’s the thing though, this retooling of Radiohead’s music has more highlights than lowlights because it was reworked by DJs who I admire and/or listen to (and who know what the hell their doing). Maybe that’s why it turned out so well. Who knows? Right out the gate the album opens with a stunner; with Caribou laying down hypnotic beats and a tingling piano/harp thingy on “Little By Little”. From across the pond we have UK supa’ producer Lone turning “Feral” inside out and sprinkling space dust on the remains. Then there is Pearson Sound/Ramadanman creating something salacious and utterly wicked with his take on “Morning Mr Magpie”. I also have to give an honorable mention to Four Tet‘s lush mutant clone of “Separator”, which I can’t seem to stop listening to. All in all there are no duds here, but like most LPs you like what you like. Also, you can preview the entire album at Radiohead‘s webpage.

And make sure you check out Thom Yorke spinning at the Boiler Room, this was a live feed for the October 3rd premiere of Radiohead’s TKOL RMX 1234567 release.
