We’re pleased to announce that there’s a new plugin called VisualSound that let’s you embed the SoundCloud widget quick and easy on any self-hosted Wordpress blog. To make the widget appear in your blog, you can write something like this:

Where “rich-jones” is the permalink for the artist on SoundCloud and “rich-jones-storm” is the track permalink. The result is:

The plugin has a number of other options for embedding sets, our DropBox and even the Cloudplayer. It also has a whole configuration panel for setting default color of the widget, and more. Big thanks to Wildchild for creating the plugin!

Update: This plugin is outdated, please check the updated WordPress Shortcode Plugin here and read or recent blogpost about the full WordPress integration.
