Another week, another new music weekly. Still in a bit of a slump when it comes to this new music curation, so probably missed a ton of new stuff.
Dana Sipos made the album of the week. Also love that Lucinda Williams made a protest album and it also makes a lot sense that it’s not on Spotify. If more of these bigger artists keep their new stuff away from there it might make a difference. T. Gold album is another one that is both wonderful and not on Spotify. Other album releases this week came from Greg Weeks, The Glass Hours, Natalie Prauser, The Lowest Pair, Nicholas Campbell, Della Mae, Sophie Gault, Fazed on a Pony, Mink’s Miracle Medicine, The Bedbugs (EP) and European Sun.
The big ones on the Finnish side of this are great new albums from Ylva Haru and Rami Helin Presents. Also very fond of the new Anis Kiitu single. Other Finnish releases this week are EP from Litku Klemetti and singles from Self Rising Flour, Pambikallio, Saimaa and Vellamo. There’s also a gorgeous new Salaliitto single Asteriski, but so far only Bandcamp. It will be streaming (won’t be on Spotify) starting Tuesday, so you’ll find it from the next episode.
New John Andrews & The Yawns song is the international single of the week. Other early faves came from Jackie West, Jobi Riccio, Luka Kuplowsky, Spencer Cullum, Bella White, Bill Callahan… again just to name a few.
That’s all for now. Like, share, follow and all the usual promotional nonsense. It all matters. Back next week with another of these. Love.

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.
