Morning Becomes Eclectic playlist: September 16, 2024

In this edition of MBE, you’ll hear “The Wannabe.” It’s the opening track to Okay Kaya’s freshly released (and exquisitely titled) album, Oh My God - That’s So Me. You’ll hear this opening album track just past the midway point of the show. Fitting for an artist as intriguingly off-center as Okay Kaya is. Plus, the latest from Bryan Ferry, Photay, and LA’s own “Afro-futurist space cowboy,” Tolliver.

DJ comment:

New record from the Aussie psych band known for inevitable avalanches of fuzz, plus some mellower passages and a focus on rhythm and space.

DJ comment:

new single on Big Crown. The message is poetic and complicated, repeatedly declaring “I love you, I’m crazy about you” but ultimately finding a sense of peace through accepting a broken heart.
