New Gemma Ray Album
2010/07/31
Hi there. The new Gemma Ray album was added to Spotify earlier this week. Good stuff. Read this review and enjoy!
Gemma Ray – It’s A Shame About Gemma Ray
Hi. This beautiful new album was added to Spotify some week ago, but it wasn’t until this week that I got around to checking it out. As you may have guessed I really, really like it. Toni Holgersson sings in Swedish but the album should still be available for all Spotify regions. Enjoy!
(Note: There is also a new playlist, Spotinews 048, with samples starting from today. I’ve also made all earlier Spotinews playlists available in my Spotify profile.)
Toni Holgersson – Ibland kallar jag det kärlek

Hey. From yesterdays Spotify update comes this new single by experimental psych-folk artist Forest Swords. Hopefully the album released earlier this year will be added soon as well. This is good stuff. Enjoy!

Lower Dens
2010/07/23
Evening. The excellent new album by Lower Dens was very recently added to the Spotify library. And this is yet another listening recommendation. Enjoy!
(Read one review here and another one here in order to get an idea of what to expect.)
Lower Dens – Twin-Hand Movement
Vandaveer – Divide & Conquer
2010/07/22
Hello. Vandaveer is a folk duo led by the highly talented Mark Charles Heidinger. This, their second album, was first released in France in early 2009, then in the US in August and now it is finally getting a wider European release. And what an album this is! Divide & Conquer is surely one of my top five albums of the year so far. Give it a listen and enjoy!
(This album was added to Spotify last week and is not available in France for now – most likely because it was released on a different label there.)
Vandaveer – Divide & Conquer

Maple Bee – Chasing Eva
2010/07/18
Hello. The debut album by singer-songwriter Maple Bee was added to Spotify earlier this week. Enjoy!
(Note: this is a reissue of sorts. The first disc is the original album, first released in 2004, and the second one has a bunch of more songs.)
(And once again I found a release when searching for the new album by the same artist.)

Good evening. It’s yet another hot day in Sweden and I will soon go out for an evening walk. But before I leave, here is the brand new album by The Innocence Mission. It was added in todays micro Spotify update. Enjoy!
(Genre: folk).

Tanto Project – Perfect Color (Single)
2010/07/15
Hi. When searching for the 2010 album by Tanto Project I found this single from 2007/2008 (which also means it’s a very recent addition to Spotify). There is a lot of summer feeling in this one. Enjoy!
(The album name is “Perfect Colors” so you can perhaps understand my initial confusion.)
