OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #359

No Comments

Another week where new music was a little bit on the backburner. This time to due to Olympics. But here’s what I managed to put together. Either there was lot less albums than usually or I just missed a lot of stuff.

Black Sea Dahu is the album of the week. Other album gems this week came from Lammping, Tim Easton, Samantha Henson, Jeffrey Martin (live), Daily Worker and Sammy Kay (EP).

A lot of great Finnish stuff this week. Especially a lot of amazing singles. The High Tydes made a true pop gem. One of big personal favorites Viljami Kukkonen released a new song. Kielo Kärkkäinen, Krypta, Maustetytöt and Tuomas Räisänen pure gold as well. And they all are. Other singles came from Sin Cos Tan, Markus Perttula, Vilma Talvitie, Arppa & Jiri-serkku, Hot Heros & Janne Laurila, Morimus, Nina Kaitaranta and Pykäri. Also some gorgeous albums too from Akkajee, Pambikallio, kukkatalo and Asla Jo.

New Alela Diane can be the international single of the week. Other early faves came from Jobi Riccio, Libby DeCamp, Charlotte Le Lievre, The Deslondes, John Andrews & The Yawns, Jackie West, Juni Habel, Emily Nenni.. again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. Back next week with hopefully a deeper dive into the new music. I might find another excuse too. I’ve been a rather good at making excuses all year long. Oh well. There’s still a lot of new music week even though I’ve missed more than usually. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #356

No Comments

Still a bit of a slump with the recorded music and I haven’t done any deep dives into it. I went to see live music three nights in a row though and that was special and gave me a big boost. Go and see Toinen Maisema, M.I.Laine, Henri Seger and Sweatmaster if you have a chance. But here’s the new music that was on my radar.

Christo Graham made he album of the week. Another big one for me is the Charlie Whitten EP. Other gems came from Alissa Arnason, Emily Scott Robinson, James McCann, Meels (EP), Ole Kirkeng, Hank Bee (EP), Cordovas, Randy Ross (EP), Lande Hekt, GUV, Barney Cortez, Bill Janovitz and Nathan K.

The big Finnish one is the new Sweatmaster album. This blog doesn’t go to the garage rock territory that often, but I’ve always loved Sweatmaster. New album rules of course. We also have albums from Felix Alexander Lybeck, RULES and Einar Lind (this one is a comp of rarities / lost tracks). Some great singles too from Hanhani, Maustetytöt, Kari Tapiiri, Vellamo, Kuusumun Profeetta, Egotrippi, Antti Autio, Silja Palomäki, Finding Jens Hortling and Jack’s Basket Room.

International single of the week is the new on from St. Yuma. I really loved their previous album and it was on my top 10 a few years back. New album is out in March and this first single sounds marvellous. Other early favorites came from Stripmall Ballads, Michael Cormier-O’Leary, John R. Miller, Sluice, Hailey Davis and Corey Parsons. And of course I love that Bruce Springsteen and Billy Bragg released powerful protest songs.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. Next weekend I have family-related things on Saturday and then Super Bowl on Sunday, so it’s possible that this new music weekly won’t be online before Monday evening. Sorry in advance for the possible delay. Love.
