Surviving Is the New Living

Okay Kaya

A collection of skeletal, deadpan pop songs that find profound meaning in the mundane. Intimate, murky, and recorded with a sense of quiet, solitary observation.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the beat on 'Comic Sans' feels like it's stumbling over itself while her voice remains perfectly steady.
The sudden, intimate shift in 'Bill Withers' where the production feels like it's closing in on the listener.
The skeletal, repetitive synth line in 'Snacks' that mirrors the obsessive nature of the lyrics.
