Basso Profundo

Welcome, foolish mortals..... to another episode! Today we are tackling the sound of fear; what is it, what does it sound like, and what does it do to our emotions? Be prepared to be SPOOOOKED!

The fog rolls in, the moon is full, and the freaks are about to take over! In this special Halloween edition of Basso Profundo, we’re conjuring up a Creature Double-Feature that'll send shivers down your spine. First, we dive into DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince's "A Nightmare on My Street", where Freddy Krueger lurks in the beats. Then, we venture into the haunted night with Whodini’s "Freaks Come Out at Night", a track guaranteed to get the ghouls grooving. With spooks in our blood, we live for this time of year. So join us as we chat about our latest ghostly escapades at Six Flags Fright Fest, revel in the spine-tingling magic of clean 80s rap, and kick off spooky season the only way we know how—by celebrating the freaks who roam after dark. Lock your doors and turn up the volume. It’s going to be a wild, wicked ride! Join us as we chat about our recent adventures at Six Flags Fright Fest, appreciate the smooth sounds of clean 80s rap, and get into the freaky spirit of Halloween. Are you ready for a monstrous musical ride? Happy haunting, folks!

This week, Sam and Jonathan throw on their old studded belts and skate shoes to hang out and talk all things Let Go, Avril Lavigne’s pop-punk masterpiece. Expect some off-key sing-alongs (mostly from Jonathan, let’s be real), and, of course, secret crushes we never told anyone about (until now). We’ll gush over Avril’s raw, punchy vocals, debate whether "Sk8er Boi" is a power chord-filled love saga, and figure out how Avril became the original Punk Princess. It’s all about being true to yourself and rocking out—even if your vocals don’t quiiiiiiite hit those high notes. It’s complicated, but in the best possible way.
