OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #376

No Comments

Another week, another new music weekly. This is always a bit quieter release week due to 4th of July, but that’s good. I needed a bit of a breather.

There’s new albums from Nixon Boyd, Margo Price, Hannah Juanita (Magnolia Sessions), Low Cut Connie, Rhodri Brooks, Space Jaguar (EP) and CS Buchan & Guy Capecelatro III. The Best Westerns one is from early June, but I missed it at the time. Still couldn’t find out a whole lot of info about that one. Most of the songs are old ones. Maybe even all. But it’s Izaak Opatz and co, so it’s great stuff with no expiry date.

The gateway to Finnish part of this is a Berlin-based band funsover that has one Finnish member. The actual Finnish section has singles from Anis Kiitu, Haaveet, Paula ja Olli and Lempi Elo.

The international singles part of this has plenty of gold. Some early faves there came from Angela Autumn, Otis Gibbs, The Roseline, Reb Fountain, The Bures Band, Honey Blazer, Hurry, Bramwell, Twin Bloom, Marina Madden, Jordan Smart.. again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #375

No Comments

Back to the weekly weekend editions of the new music weekly. Of course there might still be some summer activity that pushes this into late Sunday night, but I try to keep this going. I will miss one in August during the Stockholm Roots festival, but there’s still almost two months to that. This one tries to tackle the new music of the last two weeks, so it’s a long one and I probably still missed a lot of stuff. I’ve also spent a lot of time following NHL draft and trade activity and the football World Cup so music has been a bit on the backburner, but here’s what I managed to put together.

New Leah Senior is the album of the week(s). I’ve been a fan for a long time and this is again wonderful. A new one for me is Jacob Ungerleider, but I instantly loved it. Styrofoam Winos, American Aquarium and Sequoia also big ones for me early on. But there’s plenty that I haven’t really listened in full yet. We have new albums from Andrew Sa, Jack M. Senff & The Heartland Mission, Shlomo Franklin, Jeb Loy Nichols, Sad Daddy, The Mellons, Fuses, River Shook, Travesura (EP), Jesper Lindell, Dominique and the Diamonds, Tasha, Icarus Phoenix (EP), Paul Otteson, J.J. Swinn, The Hanging Stars and Tucker Zimmerman.

From the Finnish side of things we have new albums from Us and Draamakuu (well Draamakuu was 12.6 release date) plus singles from Samae Koskinen, Nicholas Francett, Hanhani, Hal Wickman, Joy Duran, Miika Leivo and Wojciech (Wojciech album available on CD/Bandcamp, but another song streaming now too).

Some early faves on the international single category came from Josaleigh Pollett & Crowd Shy, Mac Cornish, Cinder Well, Le Ren, Flora Hibberd, Mose Wilson & Hannah Juanita, Tre Burt, Johanna Samuels, Mr. Husband, DUM1, Rambling Nicholas Heron… again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters when I ponder the essence of life and this playlist. Back next week with another one of these things. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #374

No Comments

Another super late vacation edition of the new music weekly. It’s also very likely that I will skip the next aka midsummer weekend and just cover two weeks with the next one on the weekend of 27th-28th of June. Because first it’s midsummer and I also have to go back to the day job on Sunday. So there’s not much time next weekend. Therefore I also included a couple of singles from this current week on this one. But let’s stop the rambling and get to the new music.

New Alex Amen is the album the week. He made OCTA EP of the year in 2025 and I’ve been eagerly waiting this debut album. Wonderful stuff if you like 70s west coast folk/country kinda thing. Or just good music. Beautiful album. That Yea-Ming and the Rumours on the other hand is an amazing pop album. One of my faves of the year on that side of the onechordnet spectrum. Steven van Betten and Ruth Garbus albums also rule my world and can’t wait to give them more of my time. And there’s more of course. The week gave us new albums from Dakota Theim, Joe Abbott, Max Knouse, Ismay, Shabason & Krgovich, John Southworth, Jessica Lea Mayfield, Fruit Bats, Sam Cello, Courtney Hartman, Ward Hayden & Greg Hall (EP) and Tim Barry.

Lots of great Finnish singles too. Some early faves there came from V.Härkönen, Ruissalo Amping, Janne Tapion Sisäinen Avaruus and The New Tigers, but there’s plenty of others too. We have new ones from Kurja Valentin, ZAIDA, Pietarin Spektaakkeli, Litku Klemetti, Vellamo, Karlo Haapiainen & Varaslähtö, Moonwards, French Films, Gim Kordon, Juhlat and Katujen äänet. Also one album from Tarkkis. That’s from late April, but I missed it at the time. A good one if you are into punk rock.

Early favorites on the international singles category came from American Aquarium, William Matheny, Adam Amram, Twilark, Two Runner, Jude Brothers, Creekbed Carter Hogan, Otis Gibbs, Blaine Todd, Alex Dupree, The Bird Calls, Elanor Moss, Aaron Lee Tasjan, Styrofoam Winos… again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. Next one on the weekend of 27th and 28th of June like mentioned above. I guess if the Sunday work shift gets canceled, there’s a small possibilty I’ll do this next weekend, but it’s probably very unlikely. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #373

No Comments

A very late new music weekly like I mentioned last week. I spent the weekend in Stockholm. The cornerstone of that little vacation trip was to see Hannah Juanita and Mose Wilson at Nalen. Absolutely loved the concert, so if you have a chance to seem them you definitely should. They still have dates left in Sweden and Norway. Anyway, because I was away for the weekend, I haven’t had much time to listen to new music. This was super heavy release week especially on the rootsier side of things. I probably missed a few, but here’s what I managed to put together. This doesn’t include the new stuff from Monday and Tuesday of this week. There’s already some singles out, but I’ll leave them for the next episode.

Probably better not select an album of the week, because I haven’t listened full albums yet. There’s many here that will end up on my EOTY list in December. The week gave us new albums from Avry Truex, Collin Nash, Caleb Caudle, Charlie Marie, Bella White, Gina Leslie, Haylie Davis, John R. Miller (only physical for now), Vandoliers (EP), Bedouine, Wes Parker, Slippers, Labrador, Astrologer, BMX Bandits (lost album), Baby Cool, Widowspeak, Jessica Lea Mayfield & Dolour, Ryan Pollie, Grey DeLisle & Les Greene, The Huntress and Holders of Hand, Deer Tick, Zoh Amba, Jalen Ngonda, Lea Marra & The River Boys, The Two Tracks and Lance Howell (3 song single/EP).

The Finnish part of this has albums from Telephone Romeo and Anemones plus singles from (Sulut), Riippuvaiset and Paula ja Olli. There had to be more, but I didn’t have the time to do a deeper search of tunes.

New TJ Douglas double single can be the international single(s) of the week. Other early faves came from The Satchel Kid, Hurry, Sad Daddy, Sequoia, Jack M. Senff & The Heartland Mission, Hollow Hand, Steven van Betten… again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. I think next one will also be early week update (monday or tuesday). Back to usual after routine after the midsummer when my vacation ends. Love.
