Another week, another new music weekly.

I had a dreadful headache this morning and therefore I didn’t have as much time / energy to work on this as usual. I kinda wanted to leave this for tomorrow, but forced myself to finish it tonight. Sorry for all the typos and stuff I missed. I try do a better job next week.

Isaac Vallentin and Erisy Watt can share the album of the week honor. Very fond of these albums after just a few spins. Extremely highly recommended albums. A long time favorite Christian Lee Hutson fulfills this week’s big three. That’s not all though and there’s beautiful new albums from Vaden Landers, Kayla Von Der Heide, Elliah Heifetz, The Dead Tongues, The Hellacopters, Molly Tuttle & The Golden Highway, Paul Cauthen, Papercuts, Kathleen Edwards (EP), Blue Wilson, nudista (EP), Jenna & The Janes, Karima Walker (album of demos), Jeremie Albino (EP), The Wave Pictures (EP), Clea Anais, Sure Fire Soul Ensemble and Jenna Rae.

The Finnish section has albums from Muuan Mies and J. Karjalainen plus a run of singles from SaintPolis, Maustetytöt X Agents and Antero Kaksikäsi. I’m sure there had to be more.

My favorite international singles are the new ones from Willi Carlisle and Simon Joyner. Some first class songwriting there for sure. Other big faves came from the ones like John Calvin Abney, Izaak Opatz, Devil’s Coattails, Nathan Kalish, John Craigie, Dungeon of Skeletons, Icarus Phoenix and Angel Olsen. Again just to name a few.

That’s all for now. Too tired to write more tonight. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. To know that someone reads and/or listens gives a reason to continue. Now I need some sleep. Back next week. Love from a distance.

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 Tidal. This means a few tracks might be missing from the Tidal version, if they are not available on that platform. Usually it’s 1-3 tracks that are not on Tidal. 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.

Another week, another new music weekly.

New Ian Noe album is the leader of the pack on this weekly shangri-la. Other big ones are the new album from Freakons, Beau Jennings & The Tigers and Bailey Bigger. Oh yeah and the ep/single from The Reds, Pinks and Purples, which has been out for a while . Don’t know how I missed that pop beauty. Maybe I didn’t expect more greatness so soon after the album. There’s more though and this week gave us great new releases from Ex-Vöid, The Hanging Stars, Sylvia Hansel, Todd Farrell Jr (also a few weeks old, I knew about it but forgot to include it. solo acoustic versions of Benchmarks songs etc, the songs work this way as well, still love Technicolor for example), Walter Martin, Allison de Groot & Tatiana Hargreaves, Aldous Harding, Lewis McLaughlin, Kathleen Frances (this one is also a couple of weeks old EP that I missed at the time), Young Prisms, Palm Friends (EP) and U.S. Highball.

My favorite Finnish release of the week is the album from M. Beautiful renditions of songs from the sixties. We also got an album from Riitaoja and a run of singles from Joose Keskitalo and Paavoharju, Team Play, Anton Haring, Mara Balls, Janne Tapio and Vellamo.

And finally the international (should be) hits of the week. A big deal is that we have the first single from a new Chris Bathgate album that is due out in May. I’m also very fond of the new outtakes from the forthcoming albums by Katie Spencer, Erisy Watt, Thomas Dollbaum, VanWyck and Steven Lambke. Then there’s a fabulous new Craig Finn tune and double a-side power pop blast from Uni Boys. Plus Jeremy Squires, Stanhope, Reilly Downes, Caroline Spence etc. Oh yeah a new version of one of my all time favorite songs. Nothing will beat the original, but this new version of I Don’t Care to Dance by J.E. Sunde is also a beauty. And that’s again just naming a few. There’s a whole lot more that you can find below.

That it’s for this week. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. Appreciate everything. Love from a distance.

Another week, another new music weekly.

Let’s start with the Finnish ones this time around, because there’s a wonderful new Sur-rur album out and available. It’s a 75 minute monster. Maybe that’s a tad too much, but hard to complain because especially on the first half all songs are pretty much 5/5. Love it. The new singles from Puhelinseksi and Jani Matti Juhani are also big favorites. Other great Finnish releases this week are albums from Lone Deer Laredo and J.A. Mäki plus singles from Muuan Mies, Nina Kaitaranta, Emilia Elele and KATI.

Jerry Leger and Jacob Miller can share the international album of the week title. I listened both albums a couple of times last night and really enjoyed them. This week also got beautiful albums from Fortunato Durutti Marinetti, M Ross Perkins, Jesper Lindell, Hailey Whitters, Ben Chapman (this one’s a few weeks old, thanks to Farce for the intro), Ray Wylie Hubbard, Steve Dawson, Andy Bilinski and Midlake. Oh yeah and Sonic Youth too. Didn’t include it on the playlist though, because it was mostly ten minute songs and this was already too long. You don’t need my blog to know and love Sonic Youth.

The international song of the week is the new MJ Lenderman single. Ok, this was already one of my favorite songs of 2021, but he made a new version for the forthcoming album and I still love this song madly. Other big favorites of the week came from Johanna Samuels, David James Allen, Sylvia Rose Novak, Carla Geneve, John Craigie, Chris Brain, Vincent Neil Emerson, The Deep Dark Woods, Li’l Andy, John Craigie, Fernando Viciconte, Ryan Necci and the Buffalo Gospel, Kaitlin Butts and Abigail Lapell. Again just to name a few. And yeah a few of those are covers, but great versions.

That’s all for this week. Back to following NHL insiders and hitting F5 on Hfboards trade forum. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. All that may seem pointless, but it matters. Without all that I have no way of knowing, if anybody cares or am I just wasting all these hours to make a playlist for myself. Love from a distance.

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 a) if someone wants to follow it, they can just follow that one list and will get a new set of songs each Sunday b) so that I don’t have a trillion of different playlists on my Spotify account. If you want to find the older ones I’ve moved them to the weekly playlist archive. So hit that link above and I’m sure you’ll find this playlist too.

Another week, another new music weekly.

I don’t really know if I should even keep making these, but maybe music and art make sense even when the world doesn’t.

Maybe a tiny bit slower release week, but somehow I still managed to make this longer than anyone will listen. So far I’ve spent most time with the lovely Apollo Ghosts album so maybe that’s the album of the week. There’s also great new albums from Young Guv, Jake Nicoll, Jeremy Ivey, Karl Blau, Brad Armstrong, Bastards of Soul, Tone of Voice Orchestra, Widowspeak, John Earle Mainord, Johno Leeroy & JLR Band, Mike Clark & The Sugar Sounds and Mousey.

From Finland the big ones are the new albums from Antti Autio and ambient-jazz duo Tapani Rinne & Juha Mäki-Patola. We also have singles from The New Magnetic North (this has been on bandcamp before), Bobby Oroza, Teksti-TV 666, Evita (this came out a week ago).

My favorite international single is the new Scott Ballew song. Really love both advance singles from his forthcoming album. Other favorites this week came from Tre Burt, Shaela Miller, Jacksonport, Beau Jennings & The Tigers, Icarus Phoenix, Shoulder Season, Sean Thompson’s Weird Ears and Leyla McCalla. Just to name a few.

That’s all for this week. Like mentioned last week, this won’t be on Apple anymore. My apologies for the few who followed me there. So it’s Tidal and Spotify at least for now. Love from a distance.

Playlist Archive on Tidal

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

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 a) if someone wants to follow it, they can just follow that one list and will get a new set of songs each Sunday b) so that I don’t have a trillion of different playlists on my Spotify account. If you want to find the older ones I’ve moved them to the weekly playlist archive. So hit that link above and I’m sure you’ll find this playlist too.
