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 you could distill all of varying degrees of heartache and the ambiguity of doubt mixed with desire it may sound something like this.

Simian Ghost has earned a storied place in hearts and minds everywhere with their brand of heartfelt odes. SG’s songs leaves tear stains upon pillows and pepper hope within clasped hands poised in prayer. And if you desire deliverance from the ills of existence or a potent balm of distraction from mundane worries, then the band’s latest, ‘Autumn Slowmo For The Dejected Realist’ fits the bill and then some. After listening to the new 3-song EP there is little wonder why this band has gained such a faithful and adoring following. By the way, the Autumn Slowmo EP is available for free downland until January 1, 2013. Peace.

I am going to approach this review of Swedish dream-Pop auteurs Simian Ghost as if you’re just hearing about them for the very first time (and that may very well be the case). Whether or not you know who Sebastian Arnström is or isn’t is irrelevant, to a point. I suppose if you only want to impress friends and acquaintances with vocabulary enough to name drop and feign hipness, then I suppose you are now sufficiently well-armed to do such a thing. But, such information is far removed, and serves little (if any) purpose in how the music will ultimately enter through the conduit of your ears and sough softly through your brain cells like a pastel colored watercourse winding its way into the deeper waters of tranquility. I bid you only this, cast ulterior motives  aside and just enjoy a thing for the sake of enjoyment. The songs created by Sebastian Arnström come armed only with an ego-less beauty and a mischievous need, not for vanity, but to bruise the soft tissue of your heart with the imprint of sweet and plaintive adoration. The forthcoming album, titled Youth, will be released on March 5th via  Heist Or Hit Records. Peace.

“Wolf Girl”
Director Mattias Andersson
With Ebba Zingmark and Leopold Nilsson

“As You See Fit”
Directed by Sebastian Arnström
With Weronika Bela and Sofia Granvik
