So the 50th anniversary of Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue was this week. A landmark album, to be sure; it brought modal jazz into the mainstream, and has continued to be an entry point into jazz for every generation that followed its release. There have been quite a few tributes to the music recorded on this album (I’ve certainly played those songs quite a few times myself), but this one is my new favorite. Friends, I present to you:
Kind of Bloop: an 8-bit tribute to Miles Davis’ Kind of Blue.
