Ouch That Hertz presents The Weekly Tune-Up! Once a week we carefully select music that we find absolutely necessary to add into your music library. And they’re all free to download by the artist! Of course, if you like what you hear, we encourage you to throw a donation their way!

This week we're giving you a wide variety from folk to jazz-hop. Check it all out below!

Jacky Bastek - "Wonderwoman" (Single) and " Cold Progression"  (Single)

A catchy and impressive fingerstyle singer/songwriter from Germany. If anything, you need to hear "Cold Progression"- a blues-y instrumental that will captivate your ears. "Wonderwoman" is one of her older works (with vocals). You'll find her voice to be quite soothing.

Jake Feeny - A Fit of Colours

Singer/Songwriter from Toronto, Ontario. A Fit of Colours is a breezy acoustic folk album mixed with an alternative-blues kind of style. You'll need this, trust me.

The Weekly Tune-Up #1

               

           Ouch That Hertz presents The Weekly Tune-Up! Once a week we carefully select music that we find absolutely necessary to add into your music library. And they’re all free to download by the artist! Of course, if you like what you hear, we encourage you to throw a donation their way.

    The Vonneguts –Odyssey EP 

1.             Absolutely necessary fusion/garage rock played by musicians who clearly took the time to master their instruments. It’s one of the grooviest rock-fusion releases we’ve heard! From Detroit, MI

                                http://thevonnegutsdetroit.bandcamp.com/album/odyssey-ep

2.       Brighter Brightest – Arrow

                Indie Rock that carries an alternative instrumental style blended with pop-rock influenced vocals. If you missed the mid to late 2000’s, this is perfect for you.  From Toronto, Ontario.

3.       Dionne Reid- Smile EP

                You’d be a fool to not add this to your music library. From the UK comes Dionne Reid, a brilliant singer/songwriter influenced by soul with a reggae twinge. This is her debut EP and it is phenomenal (and extremely catchy). I can’t believe she is offering it up for free! Seriously, you need this in your life.

      Ezra James – Baby’s Home EP

                Beyond catchy (and funky) R&B from Brisbane, Australia. You can groove to this anywhere (Katt5Cable jams to this is in the shower). A must-have release!

 The Oh Hellos - Through the Deep, Dark Valley

                       Absolutely gorgeous indie folk. You're a fool to not download this. I can't believe this is free. From San Marcos, TX.
