❄️ Frozen Dead Guy Days — The Story That Turned Heads (and Stayed Frozen)

Long before it became a full-blown festival, this story started with a man from Norway living a completely normal life. Bredo Morstøl was born in 1900, and nothing about his early years would suggest that decades later he would become the center of one of the most unique events in the United States. But after his passing in 1989, everything changed. His grandson, Trygve Bauge, was deeply involved in cryonics—and that belief would set off a chain of events that took Bredo from Norway to California, and eventually to a small mountain town in Colorado.

What followed is where the story truly takes shape. From being preserved on dry ice to ending up in Nederland—and later moved again—this unusual journey became something locals would quietly maintain for years. Today, Bredo, now known as “Grandpa Bredo,” resides in The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park—the same iconic hotel that inspired The Shining—where he is kept inside a true liquid nitrogen cryonics facility.

In 2002, what began as a creative marketing idea by the local chamber of commerce turned into something much bigger. Frozen Dead Guy Days was born—and over time, it has evolved into a full cultural phenomenon filled with quirky events, unforgettable energy, and a story that continues to draw people in from all over.

There’s so much more to this story than meets the eye—and trust us, it only gets more interesting from here.

What we are listening to...

🎶  cleopatrick — SCRAP

cleopatrick is a band built on a lifelong friendship, and SCRAP (released December 5) is their most personal album yet — a record stitched together from songs, memories, and moments spanning nearly ten years.

Their story feels rare in the best way. Luke Gruntz and Ian Fraser have known each other since they were four years old, started making music together at eight, and never stopped. That kind of history shows up everywhere in cleopatrick’s sound — not just in how tight it is, but in how deeply honest it feels.

Luke Gruntz on vocals, guitar, and production, and Ian Fraser on drums and production — built cleopatrick with pure DIY spirit. Two small-town friends from Cobourg, Ontario, figuring things out on their own terms. Playing wherever they could. Building something loud, emotional, and real from the ground up. Their breakthrough came with “hometown,” the song that launched them into wider awareness and firmly put them on the map.

On December 5, cleopatrick released SCRAP — and it’s exactly what the name suggests. The album plays like a scrapbook of songs that never quite found a home before, stitched together with short audio memory postcards placed between full tracks. It spans sounds, eras, and emotional chapters, giving the listener something intimate and lived-in rather than overly polished.

From start to finish, SCRAP is one of our favorite albums of the year.
 

It feels like a time capsule — bridging eras with a modern-day grunge-meets-basement energy running through the entire album.

💥 Our Favorites:

📱 “BURNER PHONE”
The beat pulls you in immediately, and Luke’s voice demands your attention. This is a lock-in-and-listen song — the kind that makes everything else fade out.

🧱 “GUTS”
Gritty, grunge-garage energy, but elevated. Raw without feeling unfinished. It hits hard and stays with you.

☀️ “NOW ZERO”
A perfect good-day song. Sunny out. Walking your dog. Cruising around. Watching the world move by and feeling good inside it.

🖤 “TALK DOWN”
The depth and emotion here are undeniable. This one hits straight in the chest — vulnerable, heavy, and real.

🎬 “SEVENTEEN”
Luke’s vocal range shines. Listen all the way through. This track feels cinematic — especially during its most intense moments — like it was made for a dramatic film scene.

🌫️ “STILL”
This may be our favorite.
We wake up craving this song. There’s something addictive about it — his voice, the mood, the way it lingers long after it ends. It settles into you quietly and doesn’t let go.

We’ve attached the music video for “Still”.

🧩 The Memory Pieces That Make It Whole

Interwoven throughout SCRAP are short audio memory fragments — no sleep cash only, ur way or mine, morale check, not this time, and much love. These moments are what truly make SCRAP feel like a scrapbook. They’re imperfect, personal, and deeply human.

The “not this time” moment — with the line “I’ve had enough and I’m not gonna take it this time” — makes us laugh every single time. It’s raw, relatable, and perfectly placed.

❤️ Why This Album Matters

SCRAP isn’t just a collection of songs.
It’s a reflection. A look back. A reminder that some things are worth saving — even if they didn’t fit before.

Please go listen to this entire album, all the way through.
It truly rewards your time from beginning to end.
