OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #390

No Comments

A very late edition of the new music weekly, because I was away for the weekend and only got back about 9pm on Sunday. Probably missed a lot, but here’s what I managed to put together.

Flora Hibberd, Chris Lyons and SOFTJAW can share the album of the week honors. They all hit a bit different places on this onechordnet spectrum, but all are equally wonderful. There’s also great new albums from Exploding Hearts, Alien Boy, Kelley Stoltz, Winter McQuinn & Acacia Pip (EP), Charlie Parr, Sadurn, Nive Nielsen & The Deer Children (a week old, but missed it then), Chloe Kimes, Spencer Burton, Jesse Daniel, Jack Barksdale (EP), The Tender Things, Eels, Darlin’ Brando (EP), @, Jonathan Something, Charissa Hoffman, Andy Shauf (bonus EP for 10 years anniversary of The Party), Ruby Gill, June McDoom, Arborist, Darren Hayman, Firestations, Pardoner, Sunday Mourners (EP), Dropkick, fish narc and Babe Lewis.

The Finnish part is really strong this time around. In fact, the album I’ve listened by far the most is a Finnish one. This is the new Ruissalo Amping album and I’m borderline obsessed with it. Such a beautiful album and definitely extremely highly recommended. Another huge album release too from long time favorite Amuri. Other Finnish gems this week are albums from Hyvät Hevoset, Eidetic Dreams and Martti Vesala Soundpost Quintet, EP from Joy Duran plus singles from Maustetytöt, Radio Supernova, Trees and Lotta Svart.

International single of the week is the new one from Shane Leonard. I love both his own music and production work for others. Great to hear his own stuff after a while. First single sounds marvellous. Album due out in 2027. Other early faves came from Vincent Neil Emerson, Steady Holiday, Hello Emerson, The Burning Hell, Frances Vargas, Lou Turner.. again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and listen to Ruissalo Amping. Back next week with another of these things. Love.

OCTA New Music Weekly – Episode #387

No Comments

Another weekend of live music, so only got into this one on Sunday afternoon. Here’s what I managed to put together.

Ian Noe made the album of the week and possibly year. I’ve only scratched the surface so far, but I’m really loving it. There’s also new albums from Mac Cornish, Jude Brothers, Pony Bradshaw, Wil Cope, The Male Pattern, Emmett Morris, Homework, Renny Conti, Julia Jacklin, The Reds, Pinks and Purples (EP), Weaver (not sure is this a mistake, because I thought this was a October release. But if it vanishes I’ll feature it again then), Humbird, Mary Gauthier, Renny Conti, Noel McKay, Bill Baird, Darryl Kissick, Maya Elise & The Good Dream (EP), M.Sage (EP), Finnish Postcard, Harmony Index and Hermanos Gutierrez.

The Finnish release week is a big one. Absolutely love the new Laura Moisio and Hulda Huima albums. Also really dig the new Tero-Petri & Korvaamattomat single. Knipi’s new album also most likely wonderful, but I haven’t listened the whole thing yet. Other Finnish gems are albums from Remoted and Aikapyörä plus singles from Nina Kaitaranta and Jlaine & Sepänkadun köyhät & nöyryytetyt.
