2118 Music remains too distorted to ID

I don't know about earlier, but I found it is (more) recognizable in narrow FM mode at 2130, but still some distortion.
Hope this helps.
NOTE: When I first tried using NFM, there was no carrier visible in the waterfall, but at 2135 there is one present. It is very distorted no matter what.
