“To My Head” by Minusbaby (Richard Caraballo).

Underneath that sexy sax and those sensual vocals, you’ll hear a C64 bassline and shaker. Not your typical chiptune!

This is the first thing I thought of when I read about Kind of Bloop, a project looking to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Miles Davis’s Kind of Blue by reinventing the entire album with an 8-bit sound.

The album already had several notable artists slated to contribute. Here’s a tentative track listing:

1. “So What” - Ast0r
2. “Freddie Freeloader” - Virt
3. “Blue in Green” - Sergeeo
4. “All Blues” - Shnabubula
5. “Flamenco Sketches” - Disasterpeace

You can read more about the tribute and its donation system here (with details for acquiring a limited-edition CD).
