OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #296

I was away for the weekend, so I didn’t have a whole lot of time for this. I’m sure I missed a lot, but here’s a quick late sunday night edition of the new music weekly.

Album of the week is the new one from long time favorite Adam Remnant. There’s also new albums from Willie Watson, Native Harrow, Jack Barksdale (EP), Golden Everything, Eliza Thorn, Nick Lowe & The Los Straitjackets, Lunar Vacation, Bad Moves, Nada Surf, Owen Marchildon, Sunbuzz (EP), Daryll-Ann, Rubber Band Gun, Allegra Krieger, Terra Spencer, Malin Pettersen (EP), Kevin Gordon, Mac Leaphart and Tim Poovey.

Big Finnish release week too led by the new Iron Country Sisters and Samanna albums. Love them both. Also great new albums from Saimaa, Papa Reino, Matti Salo Quartet plus singles gold by The New Tigers, Jari Raaste, Joose Keskitalo & The Mystic Revelation of Teppo Repo, Kanerva feat Asa and Rakkaudella Janne.

And lots international singles too. Some early favorites came from Andre Ethier, Juliet McConkey, Adeline Hotel, Alex Dupree, St. Lenox, Snowgoose, Julianna Riolino & Adrian Underhill.. again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. Twenty three strikes on Tuesday, so maybe some blog anniversary posts this week. No other celebrations. Unless some unofficial ones like the Rosita Luu concert on Friday. Oh and Christopher Paul Stelling is in Finland this week. Go and see him. I’d love to, but pretty much impossible due to work. Love love love.

Spotify Playlist

Tidal Playlist

YouTube Playlist

A few Bandcamp cuts for the lovely non-streamers:





Oh and do buy the vinyl/cd/download. Spotify and other streaming services are perfect for these introductory purposes, but try to buy at least the music that matter the most to you

I’ll make the playlist on Spotify and then transfer it to other platforms. This means a few tracks might be missing from the from the other platforms, if they are not available there. Oh and there’s a bunch of older episodes on my Spotify profile, if you miss an episode or want to revisit.

If you are looking this after a week has gone, the embedded Spotify will show the latest playlist. I’ll just update the same playlist because if someone wants to follow it, they can just follow that one list and will get a new set of songs each weekend.
