Compilation of toe-tappin’ jazz renditions from the uber-talented Blueshift Big Band.
Seriously, these musicians are smile-inducingly good, performing familiar tunes from Ocarina of Time, Banjo-Kazooie, Sonic the Hedgehog, and more, with a decidedly magical moxie, as if from a bygone era, before video games even existed. A smokey club, dapper attire and the energetic frolic of so many instruments having a grand ol’ party — this is the stuff of Gatsby, but wayyyyy nerdier. You will absolutely fall in love with the Blueshift sound. (That’s a non-legally binding promise!)
This collection is pressed on high-quality, 180g black vinyl for the best audio experience possible - also, because back in the day, that’s all there was, so we’re keeping it authentic. Plus, you’ll get a digital download for the entire album, perfect for adding some jazzy flare to your on the go devices. Wrap it all up in beautiful Saul Bass-inspired artwork from iam8bit superfriend Mark Borgions and you’ve got a package worth so much more than its weight in game-night snacks.
