Hello, and again, welcome to Bit Depth. I'm Santiago Ramones. I have an album called Hypothetical. Every month, you will hear me break down every element in the next track on the album until I've run out of tracks. There's fourteen tracks, so we'll be doing this for over a year.

The first track is Bit Depth. Check out this deep dive into the evolution of my podcast theme and how it became an intro song for my album.

The Lunar Laugh was a power pop band based in Oklahoma City. Their final album, In The Black, was released on November 3rd, 2023. The album features Jared Lekites (guitar, vocals), Connor Anderson (guitar, vocals), Campbell Young (guitar, vocals), Triston Lightner (bass, vocals), and Levi Sherman (drums, vocals). On this podcast, we heard from Jared, Connor, Campbell, and Levi. We talked about the events preceding and surrounding the album's creation, each individual track and its production, and a quick retrospective on the history of the band.

I'm sad to say goodbye to this band, but they left us with a great album, which you should listen to.

No Justice, No Peace is a one-act opera composed by Chris Prather and co-written by Kenneth Ray Woods and Megan Prather that presents the real-life effects of police brutality on families and communities, specifically following one fictional family. We talked about how the opera began as a 10-minute opera, how it grew into a full one-act opera, the challenges and successes in the process, and our personal experiences and perspectives about police brutality.
