New music this week from Hotline TNT, Leisure, Memi, Yungbld, Daily Toll, Hembree,  Easy Easy, Muse, Enuff Z'nuff(!),  Motley Crue with Dolly Parton, sombr, Lorde, Colin Hay and much more. Enjoy!

An undeniable pleasure for me this past weekend was thie discovery of Hotline TNT. Not only is their new album a banger but their entire catalog is one great song after another. I cannot recomment thier new album highly enough - it was hard to limit just adding a few songs on this playlist.

You might also note a number of songs by Yungblud on this list too. What can I say? I like pop music done right, and respect for opening his album with a 9 minute track. And yes, I do think he looks like a young Dave Navarro.

At first I had thought my surprise track of the week was going to be the re-working of Motley Crue's ballad (and frankly not a great song) "Home Sweet Home" with Dolly Parton. I'm not really a fan of the song but Ms. Parton adds some depth. And then out of nowhere Enuff Z'nuff drops a new single? It's been 35 years since I gave that band any thought at all and apparently I've missed a run of albums and band lineups.

I also have to give a shout out to MEMI, a South Korean hard rocker that I blasted over and over this past week while the news got wierder and wierder.

Finally, there is the new GoGoPenguin album, which is well worth your time when you're looking for instrumental music and adult-oriented jazz that doesn't put you to sleep.

New music this week from Lorde and Lola Young tells me that the next generation is going to be all right.

GoGo Penguin schleifen mit ihrem siebten Album „Necessary Fictions“ einen Smaragd. Geometrisch, schillernd, glattpolliert. Es brechen sich die schönsten Farben akustischer Electronica. Das Trio aus Manchester eignet sich mit ihrer unaufdringlichen und doch überaus eloquenten Musik zunächst hervorragend für den Halbschlaf im Schatten bei über 35 Grad Außentemperatur. Wer dann in der Dämmerung nochmal mit […] #GoGoPenguin #Album #Chillwave #Electronica #JazzPop #PopKlassik #PostRock

Heads up: it's double Border Commie remix trouble as both James Holden & Nathan Fake have contributed remixes to GoGo Penguin's forthcoming new remix album GGP/RMX - out 7th May via the legendary Blue Note.

“Window” (Chris Illingworth, Nick Blacka, Rob Turner) from the album « A Humdrum Star ».

“Different worlds have always collided in the sound of GoGo Penguin. The Manchester-based trio conjure richly atmospheric music that draws from their shared love of electronica, their grounding in classical conservatoires and jazz ensembles alongside indie bands, and a merging of acoustic and electronic techniques. Over the past few years, it has earned them rapturous responses all over the world – The New York Times highlighted them as one of the 12 best bands at SXSW 2017 – and proved that they are just as at home playing to muddy festival goers as jazz fans. A Humdrum Star builds on the heady momentum of its acclaimed predecessors – the 2014 Mercury Prize-nominated V2.0 and their 2016 Blue Note debut Man Made Object – and transports it to new realms.”

2012 | GoGo Penguin - Fanfares Gondwana Records 2021 | Limited Edition | Transparent Turquoise Vinyl #gogopenguin #gondwanarecords @gogo_penguin @gondwanarecords Bandcamp: „The debut album Fanfares has won raves reviews from the Guardian to BBC Music and support from the likes of Mike Chadwick and Gilles Peterson and was nominated for best jazz album at the World Wide Awards. It is the band’s unique ability to synthesis and develop each others melodic and harmonic ideas while drawing on music from classical to electronica that makes GoGo Penguin’s music so enthralling and their debut album such a powerful opening salvo from a powerful new voice in UK music.“ https://www.instagram.com/p/CYOazFPMHGJ/?utm_medium=tumblr
