Eddie G [2021] - Oh No [Self Released]

Here's one I missed at the time, released on 20 Jun 2021, but it's too good a track to let slip by, old school with a contemporary feel.  

Although Eddie G has been performing for over 40 years, "Oh No" is only his second solo release, the first was a funky tune "Rock 'n; Roll" last year.

Over the years he's shared the stage with some of soul music's 'royalty' such as The Temptations, Earth Wind & Fire, Lenny Williams, Natalie Cole, The Dramatics, Ohio Players, The Manhattans, Stephanie Mills and Brothers Johnson to name a few.

He is currently working on his debut album.

Laville [2021] - Thirty One (The Realm Remix) [The Realm]

In March 2020 I posted a track from a new UK artist named Laville titled "Thirty One" taken from his debut album "The Wanderer" and it also appeared on a four track EP with an acoustic version and as a single.

Manny "The Realm" Rahelu has just remixed it adding, what sounds like, Keni Burke's "Rising To The Top" bassline, amongst other things. It's his latest mix on his YT channel. I can't find it on sale his website as yet.

I've also added the Laville track to remind you what it originally sounded like.

Hiatus Kaiyote [2021] - Mood Valiant [Brainfeeder] (Full Album) + A Tiny Desk Concert

Hiatus Kaiyote were last featured here with their single "Get Sun" back in March.  If you've not come across them before, they are an alternative soul collective from Melbourne who debuted with an album "Tawk Tomahawk" in 2012 which they followed up in 2015 with "Choose Your Weapon". 

They have  gone on to win various international awards and were nominated for Best R&B Performance at the 2013 Grammys (the first Australian group be nominated) for "Nakamarra" from their debut album and again for "Breathing Underwater" from "Choose Your Weapon".

Their 'meteoric' trajectory was interrupted by lead singer Naomi 'Nai Palm' Saalfield's diagnosis with breast cancer, so their latest album, "Mood Valiant", has been four years in the making whilst she has been recovering. 

The five song Tiny Desk Concert set (from yesterday 4 Aug 2021) features tracks from their latest album "Mood Valiant" released on 25 June 2021:

"Sip Into Something Soft"

"Rose Water"

"And We Go Gentle"

"Get Sun"

"Blood And Marrow"
