Today's Song of the Day, as chosen by DJ Miss Ashley, on the air Sundays 12-3 PM PT, is "Aggayu El Immenso" by Afrosideral, a 2023 single on Ocha Records.
Under the moniker Afrosideral, multi-instrumentalist/producer/songwriter Kumar Sublevao-Beat explores the mystical side of his culture.
On today's Song of the Day, in particular, he pays tribute to the Aggayú Orisha, which is said to be "an esteemed Yoruba deity of wilderness and change," most associated with powerful flowing forces like volcanic lava and raging rivers. (An "Orisha" is a divine spirit that play a key role in the Yoruba religion of West Africa.)
