OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #325

This one felt like a tiny bit slower release week, but somehow I still managed to end up with a 70 song playlist. Phew.

Kristina Murray and King Hüsky can share the album of the week honors, so you’ll get both sides of this blog. One great country album and one great pop album. Other new albums this week came from Caitlin Cannon, Brian Bilston and The Catenary Wires, Adult Mom, Alien Boy, Babe Lewis, Why Dogs Why (EP), I’m With Her, Maia Friedman, Pascale Cheron (full album on Bandcamp), Cash Langdon (this was last week, but just found it thanks to the almighty New Commute), John Cathal O’Brien (EP), Peter Donovan, Simon Linsteadt (EP) and Cole Pulice.

My favorite Finnish release this week is the new ITE EEROLA album Kolmen päivän levy IV. The whole thing was again written and recorded in three days and still at least half of these songs are so wonderful that I love them with all my heart and the rest are very good too. Se mitä en uskaltanut sanoa, Lämmintä viiniä and Outo katse go to that first category. I don’t really know how Reetta is always able to create something so beautiful and moving in such a short time frame. A special talent. Oh and of course there’s other Finnish gems too. We have beautiful albums from Ville Vuorenmaa (from the mighty Sur-rur), Kirsikkapuu and Isse plus singles from Janne Tapion Sisäinen Avaruus, Asla Jo, Litku Klemetti, Ani Harmi, Orvokki, KiPPO and Puhelinseksi. Oh and The Rocks EP too. This one is available on cassette and non-Spotify streaming services. So there’s a track on the Tidal version of this playlist.

The international single of the week is the new one from Hectorine. This is the third one and all of them are marvellous. The first one is still my favorite song of the year so far. Full AOTY level album out later this month. Expect to be mesmerized. Other early faves came from 54 Ultra, Josienne Clarke, Daniel Romano, Allo Darlin’.. again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. A lot of good concert stuff coming up next week. Jenny Don’t and the Spurs are touring in Finland and so are David Ramirez and Noah Gundersen. And on the Finnish side of things the already mentioned ITE EEROLA returns to stage after a small break. And most likely a lot of other good stuff. Live music is the best. But back next week with another one of these as well. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #324

A big release week. So much to love.

Kassi Valazza and Esther Rose can share the album of the week honors. I’m a long time fan and listener of both and these new albums are again wonderful. Pearl Charles album is a special one too. I missed it last week, because so far the full album seem to be only available on Bandcamp and vinyl, but I put one of the advance singles here for playlist purposes. Other great album releases came from M Ross Perkins, Eli Winter, Monnone Alone, Samatha Crain, Sterling Drake, Real Estate (rarities comp), Angela Autumn (EP), Pete Mancini (this came out on Bandcamp a month or two ago, but seems to be streaming now too), Neil Brogan, Red Birds (from last week), Christopher Seymore, Walker Rider, Jacquelyn Roy, Alli Blois and the Orange County Shred Center, Abigail Lapell (Anniversary extended), Thanya Iyer, The Real Tuesday Weld (first time streaming), Moon Mullins, Carriers and Young Gun Silver Fox.

The highlight of the Finnish part of is a new Hattara single. One of my favorite bands these days. Other local gems are albums from Midnight Commando and Joni Ekman & Koira plus singles from Tams, Rebekka Holi, (proto)Torvinen, Jere Ijäs ja Monacon työväen palloilijat and Drug Dog. The Finnish section ends with Finnish-Danish duo CERULEAN SAPPHIRE.

The international singles are pure gold this week. I think I shed a tear or two when I started adding them. So many beautiful ones. Some early faves came from Alex Amen (Oh my, love this with all my heart), Charlie Whitten, Attention Bird Utopia, Sam Blasucci, Geckos, Emily Hines, Erin Durant, Jessica Risker, Murry Hammond, Patton Magee, King Husky, Mac Cornish, Taylor Williams.. again just to name a few. I feel like I should name all of them. What a strong week.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. I hope I didn’t forget too much, because this was a big one. Back next week. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #323

Back again. I did skip the Easter weekend and therefore this one tries to cover the past two weeks. I’m sure there’s stuff missing, because it’s difficult to handle so much new music at one go. Plus I did just leave some out, because this is already far longer than anyone will listen. Biggest draft had over 120 songs, but I cut it down to an even hundred. Monk would be proud of me.

Slow Motion Cowboys album is the one I’ve listened the most so far, so that can be the album of the week(s) on this patch. That Colin Miller album also hits really hard and that Bells Larsen album is so beautiful (I didn’t put the cover of that album to the collage, because Meta often seem to auto-block photos with nudity). And the list goes on and on. We have great albums from Jerry David DeCicca, Mike Frazier, Julie Arsenault & Aaron Comeau, Michael Cloud Duguay, Jo Schornikow, Satomimagae, Avery Friedman, Trevor Beld Jimenez, Olive Klug, Leslie Jordan, Blue Cactus, Leon Majcen, Mason Via, Uwade, Pitney Meyer, Mark Fredson, Rubber Band Gun, Jason Dea West, JPW & Dad Weed, Mythical Motors, Festiva, Ryan Allen and His Extra Men, Jessica Lea Mayfield (EP), Run Coyote (EP), Rodeo Boys, Marlene Oak (EP), William Tyler, Firestations, Ally Kerr and Flying Mojito Bros.

The Finnish part of is led by a new Kristiina single and it’s again marvellous. It kinda felt like a betrayal to skip the new music weekly on a week that Kristiina released new music, but at least it’s here now. Another highlight is the debut single from Janne Laurila Double Denim. Other Finnish gems of the past two weeks are albums from Räjäyttäjät, Thelma’s Dream, The Bablers, Lauri Kallio and Tove Johnson (EP) plus singles from Jukka Nousiainen Trio, Juovat, Krypta, Petra Poutanen, Kirsikkapuu, Itcevät, Neiti Olga, Ilja Karsikas feat Janne Tapion Sisäinen Avaruus and AK-77. Outside of the evil streaming services we have a gorgeous new album from Jean Ramsay. You can get if from Bandcamp for example. I’ll return to that album on a later date.

The international singles are a bit buried on the second half of this monster playlist, but there’s plenty of great ones. Some early faves there came from Philippe Bronchtein, Bryse Taylor, Jobi Riccio, Pearl Charles, S.G. Goodman, Brennan Edwards, Vandoliers, Kristina Murray, Nicholas Jamerson, Kyle Cox, Friendship, Zach Thompson… again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. I hope I didn’t forget too much. I try to fill the holes during coming weeks, if I did. Good luck to everyone who tries to listen all of this or even half of this. A bit shorter one next week with the usual one week edition. Love love.
