Peter Thomas and Cody Haltom co-host an exciting adventure through the wonder and magic of video game music. From 8-bit classics through to modern, orchestral masterpieces, each episode is dedicated to a specific game, where we do a deep dive into what makes the music wonderful... or terrible! We share our fondest memories of our first encounters with the game, as well as some of our top tracks to jump start you into the marvelous world of video game music!
Peter and Cody really cannot wrap their heads around it, but it has been one whole year since the Deep Bass Podcast recorded it's first episode, and what a journey it has been. What better way to celebrate than to cover a game with the largest soundtrack they could find? At over 1,000 songs, this was the biggest soundtrack they've listened to, and at over two hours and 15 minutes, the longest podcast they've ever recorded. Not too bad to cap off the first season!
In this episode, Peter and Cody talk about the last year, including some of the best and worst moments of the podcast. Then they dive into SSBU, talking about their history and (reluctantly) picking their five favorite songs. This was incredibly challenging, given that every track on the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate soundtrack is legitimately a gem! There are a few other hidden gems that make this their most content filled episode to date. You won't want to miss it!
Question of the Episode: If you had to pick five tracks from the SSBU soundtrack, what would they be? Tell us over on Twitter @DeepBassPodcast, or stop by the Discord and hang out: https://discord.deepbasspodcast.com/
Also, to celebrate this milestone, we've released shirts and hoodies! You can pick one up right here: https://merch.deepbasspodcast.com/
And as always, thanks for listening, and we'll see you next season!

Episode 025 - Hades
Escaping the underworld can be hard. But at least if you're going to do it, you should have the composure and good looks of best boi Zagreus! In this week's episode, we talk about the music from yet another beloved title from the minds at Supergiant Games: Hades! Composed entirely by Darren Korb, we are presented with a soundtrack unlike any other in games that we've covered, and it does Hades much justice. Roguelikes are certainly not Cody's forte, but Peter tries his best to convince him that if he plays only one roguelike ever in his life, Hades should be that game. Does he succeed? Take a listen and find out!
Question of the Episode: Which Olympian gives you your favorite ability to use in Hades? Tweet us @DeepBassPodcast, or join the conversation over on Discord: https://discord.deepbasspodcast.com/
Buy the soundtrack on Bandcamp: https://supergiantgames.bandcamp.com/album/hades-original-soundtrack
As always, thank you so much for listening!

Episode 024 - Pokémon Black and White Version 2
Unova is in danger again and instead of Team Plasma it's... Neo Team Plasma? Ooookay then. Peter and Cody sit down to talk about Pokémon Black and White Version 2 which neither have played, and both are highly confused about it's existence. Their personal opinions aside, they dig into over 120 tracks to find their top five and talk about their history and experience with Pokémon, as well as Peter's completely healthy and normal obsession over Pokémon Go. Composed by Go Ichinose, Hitomi Sato, and Teruo Taniguchi, does the Pokémon Black and White Version 2 OST hold a candle to the flame of the past four generations? Take a listen and find out!
Question of the Episode: If you were introducing someone brand new to the franchise of Pokémon, which game would you start them off with? Answer this and previous episode questions on Twitter @DeepBassPodcast, or stop by the Discord and let's break that 240 character limit: https://discord.deepbasspodcast.com/
As always, thank you for listening!
