Read more Asian Invasion

In a mini-musical revolution of sorts, artists of Filipino heritage are enjoying their best year to date, dominating this year’s GRAMMY Awards (as the LA Times had noted in a detailed article here) and are amongst the best-known and popular performers of today.

Dozens of artists of Filipino heritage include Apl.de.ap of Black-Eyed Peas, H.E.R., Kirk Hammett of Metallica, Bruno Mars, Neal McCoy, Olivia Rodrigo, and Toro y Moi (among many many more).

Here are a few others we put in the spotlight:

BEABADOOBEE

https://www.beabadoobee.com

After five previous EPs and a successful debut full-length, aka Beatrice Kristi Laus released her sophomore effort, Beatopia this July, to even greater acclaim. The UK artist was born in Iloilo City, Philippines before moving to London as a small child.

We caught her live this summer as part of the final :( Rock the Garden concert and she starts a mostly sold-out UK/IE Tour Oct 4 in Dublin, before returning to the States for a few shows, including Minneapolis in November. Don’t worry KC fans, Bea plays there in early April 2023 (shhh)!

(Arrive early on those UK/IE dates to catch NYC [London-based] four-piece Pretty Sick, grunge leaning alt-rockers whose debut full-length, Makes Me Sick Makes Me Smile is out 30 Sept on Dirty Hit, and they'll be in the US headlining club shows in Oct/Nov.)

Second studio album DU4LI7Y (Duality), was released to wide acclaim, but he was forced to recently cancel his Panalo Homecoming concert in Olongapo City, due to promotor issues.

Latest singles are “Will You” and “27 Bodies” and he was a featured performer at the Filipino-centric London music festival, 1MX this past July.

R.I.P. Coolio

COOLIO - It Takes A Thief album

(Read more Musicians who died in 2022)

Hip hop rapper Coolio has died at age of 59 in Los Angeles, his manager Jarez Posey has confirmed, with no immediate cause of death released.

He was found unresponsive in a friend's bathroom, but no drugs or related paraphernalia were reported found on the scene (note that he had also been a longtime asthma sufferer), so an autopsy and toxicology report will determine his cause of death.

AKA Artis Leon Ivey Jr, Coolio was best known for the GRAMMY-winning 1995 #1 single "Gangsta’s Paradise", which came from the soundtrack of the Michelle Pfeiffer film Dangerous Minds, sampling Stevie Wonder’s 1976 song "Pastime Paradise".

Born just south of Pittsburgh, Coolio moved to Compton, CA, going to community college and also working as a volunteer firefighter and as airport security, before pursuing hip-hop full-time.

His debut 1994 album, It Takes a Thief (Tommy Boy Records) featured the hit single "Fantastic Voyage", which went to #3 on the Billboard Hot 100.

He was nominated for six total GRAMMYS and also won three MTV VMAs in a career that spanned thirty-five years, eight studio albums, and numerous film and TV appearances.

Weekend Gamer Update (September 2022)

Steam

I’ve put down my $5 to preorder my Steam Deck. I decided to get the $400 entry model. I think that is a fantastic price, considering that I looked at similar handheld PCs, such as the Aya Neo and OneXPlayer, and they are usually $1,000 or more …

Cyberpunk

For some odd reason, Best Buy, allowed me to pick up my pre-order for Cyberpunk 2077 video game for the PC. The game is not officially out until December 10, 2020, on a variety of platforms: Windows …

I received my Steam Deck today. I haven’t played any games on it, as each games takes a million years to download on my cellular hotspot. But so far, so good, everything is working as expected.

First impression: the Steam Deck is massive! I had no idea, I mean I knew it was bigger than the Nintendo Switch, but it’s way bigger than I thought. It’s definitely not a pocketable device. Still, it’s more portable than, say a heavy gaming laptop. I’ll have more to say about the Steam Deck once I actually start playing games on it.

Prior to receiving my Steam Deck, I’ve been buying various accessories for it. I got a decal, a screen protector, and a very expensive 1TB SD card… and I think eventually I will upgrade the 2230 NVMe SSD chip (even though Valve does not recommend it because the SSD might draw too much power and brick the device).

The sticker decal sucked, it arrived folded, and the printing looks blurry. Plus it ripped when I was putting it on. I don’t think I will be buying anymore decals for the Steam Deck unless it’s official or at least licensed.

The other prepping thing I’ve done is buy some more Steam games (even though I own many of them on GOG or Xbox). So yeah, I bought Cyberpunk again. Yeah, I re-bought Elden Ring again on Steam.

Logitech G Cloud

Speaking of Steam Deck, Logitech announced their Logitech G Cloud, a $350 handheld device that can stream your Xbox Cloud Gaming, Steam Link, and NVIDIA GeForce Now games. The pricing doesn’t make any sense to me. You can buy a non-portable Xbox Series S or the original Nintendo Switch for less.

And speaking of Cyberpunk, you may recall that I bought the game in Dec 2020 and I noted that there will likely be bugs in the game. What I didn’t anticipate was the massive backlash against the game as it did not run properly on “last gen” consoles. I bought it for the PC, so it ran as expected. I personally didn’t have any complaints about Cyberpunk, but I understand why fans were so angry.

Fast-forward to today, with the recent update / upgrade to Cyberpunk for Cyberpunk: Edgerunners, the fans did a 180 turn and all negatives were forgiven. With over 1 million players playing the game every night since the update it’s good to see the game doing so well, two years after it originally released.

As I previously mentioned, I did re-buy the game on Steam so I can test it out on my Steam Deck… so I’ll be joining one of the many players returning to the game.

Yours,

- Weekend Gamer

From Blue Hours to brighter days---

London folk rock band Bear’s Den has finally returned to these shores after some pandemic-related delays, on their Blue Hours Tour, and played a satisfying set at Knuckleheads Garage, hidden within the railway district, in Kansas City, MO.

The evening opened with a brief but well-received set from Izzy Heltai, a Massachusetts-based mid-twenties singer-songwriter, in support of new five-song EP, Day Plan, the follow-up to his 2020 full-length, Father. Heltai’s music has a gentle veneer with some West Coast laid-back influences, but like the headliner, his lyrics can often dig deeper.

Whether coming to terms with his own identity or documenting a pandemic era romance on “Beauty Queen”, the lyrics seem relatable and are delivered with a pleasant artistry. Though accompanied by his full band, the songs were even more poignant when he performed solo, such as he did to finish his half-hour set.

===

When the UK folk invasion burst out onto the airwaves just over a decade ago, we became fans of many of the acts, including Bear’s Den and their related Communion Music- a London/Brooklyn artist-based organization that includes a record label, promotions, music publishing and more, and has included a roster featuring Tamino, Sam Fender, Dan Croll, Michael Kiwanuka, Catfish and the Bottlemen, Ben Howard, James Bay, George Ezra, Nathaniel Rateliff and the Night Sweats, Daughter, and Highly Suspect, all of whom are WHM favorites.

Communion even put on monthly residencies in a few music-centric major cities, and we looked forward to catching each installment live. Fast forward to an endemic 2022 and Bear’s Den has emerged like the rest of us- shaken, re-evaluating, and moved, but also hopeful and those feelings and more are a core part of Blue Hours, their fifth full-length released in May, that often serves as a mirrored reflection of those pandemic days we’re slowly coming out from. “Blue Hours felt like a name for my own depression”, singer Andrew Davie has said about composing the new record, mostly during lockdown.

And while their ninety-minute set featured several of the new songs, the mood was much more cathartic and joyful, despite any lyrical moments of despair. Their music still shimmers with a polish and lacks the purposeful arena bombast of a Mumford and Sons, maybe making their adherence to their traditional folk roots, ever more authentic.

After beginning with the new album’s title track, the title track of 2016’s Red Earth & Pouring Rain soared, with a gentle but impactful riff, similar to the best War on Drugs songs. We’ve caught them a few times live previous, including in 2014 and again in 2016, and can happily report their mostly mid-tempo folk sound, has been even more perfected.

The band is still officially just a duo (Davie, and sort-of Nick Offerman look-a-like Kevin Jones) but the four-piece band plays seamlessly together like they’ve been a unit for decades. Davie admitted to not only being very happy to be playing live again, but extra-excited to be headlining a place with this unique name and complemented the staff and food.

There was a delicate ache to the new “All That You Are” with Davie lamenting in verse, “I hope you find someone who loves you for all that you are” then adding, “I hope I find someone who loves me for all that I am” in a moment of self-redemption, ending the song vocally off-mic to a hushed audience.

As a band, they’ve always tried to provide an intimacy live and also bridge any gap between performer and audience, and a mid-set highlight was watching all four performers at the stage front, performing 2013’s “Sophie” completely acoustic and off-mic as the crowd listened in rapt attention.

“Stitch in Time” is the band’s brand-new single, with Davie looking back in hindsight, impossibly trying to change an outcome that’s already occurred. Davie ended “Magdalene” singing off-mic as well, giving an additional impact to the closing verse, and “Please Don't Hide Yourself Away” is a very recent collaboration with Jade Bird (of whom we’re a fan and have caught her live previous) for the Apple+ streaming series, Trying.

Momentum increased at the main set would end, with Davie singing, “When you’re really in the moment of something, there’s a sort of heightened sense of urgency” on 2016’s “Auld Wives” and the crowd clapped along to the elegant pain of loss of 2013’s Above the Clouds of Pompeii”.

The encore began with the band and their instruments walking in the darkness, towards the center of the venue- tougher here than in similar halls, as that section was filled with numerous placed tables and chairs, but they found a way, playing 2016’s “Gabriel” in near-dark, with the crowd surrounding them in a small circle, cell cameras held high.

Making their way back to the stage and plugging back in, 2013’s “Agape” would end the evening, a complicated song that teeters between grief and glory, hope and hopelessness, but its jangly banjo and steady beat would help end things with a flourish.

Coming out of the pandemic has meant that everyone has had to process difficult things and reflect on what was lost, and the value of things in everyday life. Bear’s Den and their Blue Hours album mirrors that, and a shared experience of those feelings and more, is the kind of group catharsis, that’s exactly needed at the moment.

Australian pop-chanteuse Meg Mac’s new album Matter of Time is #1 on the ARIA National Album Chart. This is Mac’s first ever #1 album, her two previous albums, 2017’s Low Blows and 2019’s Hope both peaked at #2 and #9, respectively. Her 2014 self-titled debut EP is ARIA certified platinum.

“Thank you to everyone who has gotten behind me and supported this album, it truly means the world. I couldn’t be happier to hear the #1 news today” says Meg of her incredible chart success today.

Meg Mac (05 Apr 2015)

We caught Meg Mac on her first US tour, in Apr 2015, and wrote, “As we have previously suspected, this was the young singer's first American tour, and her first time in Minneapolis. Mac's soulful pop and sometime bluesy songs went over well with the Clean Bandit's audience, and you can see why she won Triple J's Unearth Artist of 2014 and earned Rolling Stone Australia's "Best New Talent" award.”

Australia’s beloved psychedelic-surf-rockers Ocean Alley announced a brief eight date US tour, one of those dates happened to be the 7th Street Entry in Minneapolis, for June 22. ...

Ocean Alley
oceanalley.com.au

Australia’s beloved psychedelic surf rock outfit Ocean Alley announced their “Part 2” US tour for their forthcoming album Low Altitude Living. Minneapolis was part of “Part 1” earlier in June 2022.

As frontman Baden Donegal explains the album title, “Low altitude, being by the beach is where we all have the most peace. So naming the album Low Altitude Living made a lot of sense. The title of the album doesn’t necessarily represent any one song in particular, or tie them all together. But it does tie our band to the music. I feel like it’s more of a title that describes why we sound like Ocean Alley.”
