8-bit Miles Davis from http://kindofbloop.com/
Just saw this website on a friend’s google chat away message that has me a little shaken.
The site is called Kind of Bloop and it is basically a sales portal for an album entitled “Kind of Bloop: An 8-Bit Tribute to Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue”. Think old school NES soundtracks and Miles Davis. Combined. In an unholy union of Mario and high culture.
It’s the brainchild of Andy Baio, a blogger and entrepreneur from Portland, Oregon. It sounds like he’s got his mits in various interesting enterprises, which you can read all about on his blog.
As a jazz musician, I’m appalled. Sort of.
As a nerd, I’m delighted. Sort of.
All in all, I’m confused but appreciative.
