OCTA Music Weekly – Episode #117

Another week, another new music weekly.

I’m bit early and do this one rather quickly, because I need to work on the album of the year list for the rest of the weekend. I might add something here later, because I didn’t do as thorough research as normally and probably stumble upon something I really like later during the weekend.

The year is soon coming to an end, but there’s still some big new album releases led by new collaboration album by Kacy & Clayton and Marlon Williams. Other big album releases came from Duff Thompson, Izaak Opatz (gorgeous pop-country covers), Toby Goodshank (I think this was on Bandcamp last week, but now streaming too), Zeb Zaitz, James Steinle, Desolation Horse, M. Ward, Mike Viola, Guided By Voices, Sturgill Simpson. There’s also EPs from Oly and Christopher Gold and Emma Swift’s awesome Bob Dylan cover album is now on Spotify too. I think you don’t need me to find the Taylor Swift album (which is probably really good) or the album by that guy who once covered her songs.

From Finland we have a new single from Suad and an album by Jeremy Andrew.

When it comes to international singles, I want to highlight the new Kirty single, because it’s a) great b) it’s been a while since we’ve heard her solo material. There’s also new Drew Beskin, Pony Bradshaw, Sun June, Aaron Lee Tasjan, John Paul Keith and so forth.

That’s it for now. I’ll focus on the eoty lists now. I might or might not do this weekly round up next week. Depends on a) do I have the time b) are there enough new releases that it even makes sense to do it. I’ve collected the Christmas songs under own playlist called OCTA – Yuletunes 2020. So check that out, if you want some seasonal tunes. Love from a distance.

OCTA Music Weekly – Episode #116

Another week, another new music weekly.

A year is coming to an end and the release schedule is not that crowded anymore. I’m also focusing on the year end list and might miss stuff. I will do this at least next week though, because there’s some most likely great ones still on the way. Duff Thompson, Desolation Horse, Kacy & Clayton and Marlon Williams and so forth.

Let’s start this week from the Finnish ones, because they didn’t get the memo that one should mostly release holiday tunes at this time of the year. There’s a candidate for the song of the year list from Kielo Kärkkäinen (first single from her next album) and the album of the year list from Bad Sauna. We also have great new singles from Pekka Laine, Tomi Nordlund & Syvä Joki, Matti, Vino Puu and Pelko. Plus revisit to the wonderful Nightbird album from the past week.

My favorite international album/release is the new Gladie EP. I’ve listened No Call List a few dozen times since yesterday. There’s also an album from Winston C.W. and EP from Matthew Ryan. I’m sure there had to be a few more. Langhorne Slim did release side A of Strawberry Mansion. Christo Graham album is a November release that I stumbled upon during Bandcamp day. First time on this list.

Update a few hours later: Just saw that Jeff Loops released an album. I added a song from it to the playlist as well.

As for international singles. A big one are the final Neal Casal singles. A new Esther Rose song is always exciting. Desolation Horse, Three Sacred Souls, LadyCouch and Pony Bradshaw also continue to impress. Oh yeah and Carla Geneve released a new band version of a song that I love oh so much. Everything else would of course be worth a mention, but you’ll find from the list below. And as mentioned last week, the Christmas song are on a separate playlist. You’ll find it from my Spotify profile or check the direct link from last week’s post.

That’s it for this week. First end of the year list is now on the blog too. More to come during the next couple of weeks. Love from a distance.

OCTA Music Weekly – Episode #115

Another week, another new music weekly.

A super slow release week due to thanksgiving week I presume. Plus we are approaching Christmas and AOTY time, so release schedule starts to slow down in general too. Anyway, therefore there’s a bit more reappearances from the past week than normally.

I’ll start with the Finnish ones this week, because there’s a really important one from Fenno-Swedish songwriter Nightbird. A pretty world class stuff, if you ask me. So if you didn’t get enough new American folk and blues albums this week, give a spin to Travelin’ Baby. It’s a treasure. Other Finnish beauties on the list and my radar this week are an album from Hot Heros feat Iro Haarla, EP from Tiiu Helinä and singles from J.Kajan, Markus Perttula, Sepikka and Joni Ekman. The playlist also includes Jere Valkonen album from a week ago and revisits Antero Kaksikäsi single from the past week.

Not a whole lot on the international albums and EPs front, but a few beauties for sure. A new album from folk singer-songwriter Richard Allen was a lovely surprise. I loved his In the Front Room album in 2014 and this new one sounds gorgeous on quick listen. I can’t wait to give a more thorough spin soon. Probably all songs from Grace Gillespie’s new EP have been on this playlist during the past year. That is now out too. We also have a surprise album from Scott H. Biram, Max Bien Kahn’s stay at home demos plus Emily Barker has a new EP with three versions of Machine. Nick Dittmeier released an extended version of his 2019 EP. I also included wino-strut & friends. I mentioned it on the release week a few weeks back, but it wasn’t on Spotify back then. It is now, so I included it on the playlist this time. Luluc album came out in October, but I missed that at the time completely.

And finally the international singles. There’s a new one from long time favorite Matt Paxton. That matters every time. Never heard of Clara Mann before today, but her single destroyed me in a good way. Amazing song and can’t wait to hear more songs. Desolation Horse is another new one that hit a home run. There’s an album coming out in December on American Standard Time. Little Mazarn, Vilma Flood and Aaron Lee Tasjan released great new songs. Jacob Faurholt covered Sparklehorse and if you are looking for first class pop songs, check out the new track from The Boys of Perpetual Nervousness. As usual, everything is worthy of a namedrop, but you’ll find them from the list below. Oh yeah and there’s already been a ton of gorgeous Christmas singles and albums. I don’t want to put them on the weekly playlist so early on and therefore I made another playlist for the yuletunes. Otherwise I’ll forget them before I even want to listen to them. If you are already on the festive mood, you’ll find that playlist here.

I think that it is for this week. Thank you again for following this little blog. It matters. You matter. Love from a distance.

OCTA Music Weekly – Episode #114

Another week, another new music weekly.

This one was a giant release week, because some of my absolute favorite songwriters released new albums. I’m referring to J.E. Sunde and John Calvin Abney. I’ve loved their songs for a long time and the new albums are wonderful. Actually I’ve loved the music of Adam Selzer even longer and I was thrilled to see he released a solo record. If you are a really long time reader of this little music blog, you might remember his old a band called Norfolk & Western. I loved them back in the early 00s and Dusk In Cold Parlours is one of my all-time favorite albums. Give that one listen, if you are not familiar with it. That last song still stops time. A perfect album. Anyway, back to 2020 and the new solo album which also sounds great. I look forward to diving into it more thoroughly once I’ve done with this weekly round up thing-y. Oh yeah and that The Parson Red Heads album I mentioned a week ago is now streaming here in Europe too, so it’s on the playlist this time around. Moving on from long time favorites to new favorites. These Kacey Johansing, Laura Fell and Badge Epogue Ensemble albums sound fabulous on quick listen. And that’s just to name a few. Here’s a list of all new album/EP releases that were on my radar this week.

J.E. Sunde – 9 songs About Love (Vietnam)
John Calvin Abney – Familiar Ground (Black Mesa Records)
Adam Selzer – Slow Decay (Jealous Butcher Records)
Kacey Johansing – No Better Time (Night Bloom Records)

And outside of the streaming services, we’ll have at least a new album from Freschard. That’s always something love and cherish.

Moving on to the Finnish stuff. The only album release is the new one from Jerry Lindqvist, but it’s a really good one. As an addition to that there’s a mighty good run of singles from Janne Laurila, Janne Tapion Sisäinen Avaruus, Antero Kaksikäsi, J.Kajan, Mauri Dark, Eerie Deer, Iisa, Ruissalo Amping, Radio Supernova. I was also ready to praise the new Nightbird album, because I thought it was a Friday release. However, it’s actually a 24th of November release, so you can check that out midweek if you want to hear a magnificent Finnish album.

Finally the international should-be hits aka singles. A couple of big album announcements from The Weather Station and Michael Feuerstack. If this blog and world still exists at the end of 2021, you’ll find those from my AOTY 2021 lists. Wonderful songs once again. Other personal favorites like Andy Shauf, Mariel Buckley, Aaron Frazer, Drew Beskin also have fabulous songs this week. Brian Johannesen released two amazing new songs. Duff Thompson is a new one for me, but I’m very fond of his new singles and look forward to hearing the album in December. As usual everything else would also be worthy of a mention, but you’ll find them all from the list below.

I think that is all for this week. Such a lovely week of new releases. Thank you songwriters for keeping me relative sane during these weird times. Love from a distance.
