Just in time for Dia de Los Muertos, Audio Up and SiriusXM have teamed up on an all-new four-episode scripted podcast starring Danny Trejo, Snow Tha Product, Jared Gutstadt, and Balam titled Dia de Los Muertos (In Hell).
Ushering in new Halloween traditions with their campfire-ready horror musicals dating back to their COVID era experiment with Machine Gun Kelly, 24kGoldn, and iann dior‘s Halloween In Hell (which spawned a chart topping podcast and music streams in the millions), Audio Up‘s Spanish language sequel will mostly follow the same formula but for a brand new language and audience.
Dia De Los Muertos (In Hell) picks up where that epic adventure leaves off with the Devil and Gazul looking to steal souls, this time finding themselves out of their comfort zone at the Day of the Dead festival in Mexico during their version of spooky season. In this series, a band from Cancun called Mensajeros del Mictlán is invited to an unknown music festival during Dia de Los Muertos, only to find that the festival has been organized by Satan himself. Dia De Los Muertos follows Satan (played by Trejo) in his attempt to recruit more souls into Hell. We follow the Latin band Los Mensajeros del Mictlán who have received an invitation to perform at the All Souls Music Festival in Mexico. But what our heroes don’t know is that this music festival are part of Satan’s evil plan to round up more souls into the Nether World. Eventually, the band shows Satan – through a musical adventure – that it is necessary to expand his mind and horizons beyond his activities in the Underworld. Each episode unlocks new music within the series and across DSP’s.
Packed with music from original Latin artists such as Snow Tha Product alongside the debut effort of up and coming artist Balam, Dia De Los Muertos (In Hell) promises to be one wild comedic adventure and journey through the depths of the underworld and beyond.
The first two episodes of Dia De Los Muertos (In Hell) are now available, with episode three releasing on November 1st, and the finale episode releasing on November 8th.
