Video for Com Truise's "Propagation"

[Joyrex]

Great visual aesthetic going on in this video for Com Truise's song "Propagation" off his latest album:

Love this video / track, was just showing it to my friend the other day. There's something so satisfying about the juxtaposition of the feel good upbeat synthwave melody and groove with the unsettling and surreal imagery/narrative of the video. Absolutely gorgeous.

yeah, nice track and video. seems like something straight outta black mirror.

The cinematography is cool - but doesn't go very well with the classic Com Truise vibe, does it...?

This video for VHS Sex (with its weird retro images) is an example of a better fit , I think.

 

 

 

Also, I tried syncing up the music of Gesaffelstein's Obsession with the Propagation visuals - and THAT gels amazingly!

Hmmm, the YouTube embed didn't work correctly...

(I've also had problems inserting images in a post - always ends up as an attachment...)

 

Help anyone? Thanks.

 

Edit:

OK, I kinda fixed the above embed by inserting an online thumb of the video and linking that to the YouTube video.

However, just pasting the embed code I get from the YouTube video itself didn't work (showed the plain HTML in the post instead of parsing it in the way I expected) and trying to use the "code" option in the post/edit options doesn't work either...

Pictures end up as attachments when I try to insert an image file from my computer, but can be inserted within a post if I use an online URL (as I did above).

 

I'd appreciate anybody giving me a quick how-to for posting media in the WATMM forums - e.g. link to a FAQ or pinned thread I might have missed.

OK, I read some WATMM search results and found the solution - paste as plain YouTube URL (NOT embed code):

 

 

To recap: I think this (fan-made?) edit works better as a "Com Truise style" music video than the very pro-looking Propagation one.

 

(Now, if anyone can clarify inserting offline images to NOT be attachments?)

So you're wanting to know how to upload images so they don't appear as attachments?

That's correct, yes...
