Aug 11, 2023

Alas, all good things must come to an end, and MBE’s week of stellar guest DJ mixes is no exception. But we’re sending you off in the very capable hands of KCRW’s Wyldeflower, and her “Lost and Found in Sound” mix. From the subtly stirring beginnings of Alice Coltrane’s “Journey In Satchidananda” to the final strains of Wayne Shorter’s “Wild Flower” — all nine songs in this mix hold enormous significance for our guest.

"Growing up I always debated on which records I would take with me to a deserted island,” Wyldeflower says. “[I’d] contemplate on the records that could sustain me and provide companionship on this imaginary island... I picked nine tunes to share because nine signifies completion. So we'll listen to jams that complete me, and that would help me feel found even while lost on a deserted island.”

Plus, New Music Friday is on fire with Noname’s Sundial, Jungle’s Volcano, and Les Imprimés Rêverie all in the mix.
