In 2009, the band headed in a new direction walking away from full-length productions, releasing their first single, "El Experimento", the first release since Magia coinciding with the twenty-year celebrations. With a much mature, international, and alternative sound, the band once again topped the radio charts across the Dominican Republic. After a successful return they released three more single to date: "Salta", "Alcohol y Celular", and "Vivo" accompanied with touring through the Northeastern United States and the Dominican Republic.
Throughout their existence, they have been domestically successful with several singles topping the charts in their native Dominican Republic in addition to playing numerous gigs in Santo Domingo, New York and other cities where the Dominican diaspora is centered but have enjoyed little international success.

Toque Profundo's song "Ramona" tells the story of a couple's tumultuous relationship. The lyrics are sung in a conversational style and switch back and forth between the two characters, with occasional commentary from a third party. The song begins with the announcement of the band's performance, and quickly delves into the story of the couple. The man is tired and wants to sleep, but the woman wants him to stay awake and spend time with her. Eventually, he threatens to leave and tells her that he will send her back to her mother. The next day, he wakes up early to buy alcohol and brings it back to the house. The woman wants him to cook for her, but he is still tired and wants to sleep. The man then leaves and spends time with his friends. Later, he returns to find the woman asleep and wakes her up to cook for him. The song ends with the man lamenting that their relationship fell apart and wishing that he had handled things differently.
The lyrics of "Ramona" paint a vivid picture of a relationship that is filled with conflict and unfulfilled desires. The mention of alcohol, specifically "miau-miau," a strong alcoholic drink popular in the Dominican Republic, highlights the role that drinking plays in the couple's relationship. The phrase "y e facil?!!" is a recurring motif in the song, and is used to express frustration and exasperation at the situation. The language used in the song is colloquial and informal, making it easy to relate to and understand for listeners in the Dominican Republic.
