Great effort by some awesome chip tune creators. If memory serves, they had very little trouble covering the album, but a hell of a time with the album cover. The original photographer for the album cover nearly got the whole project shut down.

Baio didn’t have trouble covering the album because he paid the licensing fees for the music. However, he simply used the photograph without even asking permission.

He just asked for them to licence the photo ors stop using it.

The music is quite good! The covers of Freddie Freeloader and Flamenco Sketches are quite worth it, IMHO :-)

I know virt and Shnabubula from the video game music rearrangement scene - both are crazy talented artists.

I'm still holding my physical copy of this album from the kickstarter - pretty cool to see it go free & surface here.

I remember the controversy that happened around its cover art at the time. (I prefer the new one!) The music itself is fantastic. I love Disasterpiece’s music and his track is great.

I was curious about Disasterpeace's music, but had trouble finding it because you used the original spelling of the word instead of the artist's wordplay (I don't blame you, it's definitely hard to remember). Thought I'd comment in case anyone else is curious.

I've never heard of this. I'm kind of amazed you can do this and publish it as a free download later.

Kind of Blue is my favourite album of all time.

Maybe he did get a license of some sort to do it.

This is a chiptune remake of legendary album "Kind of Blue".

From ? 2010. I got into it when it was first released. You should, too.

Glad to see this is available. I bought it back when. It was worth the money.
