LISTEN, TOO: 2D BOY’S GABLER, OCREMIX MUSICIANS RELEASE CANCER BENEFIT CD SONGS FOR THE CURE
First mentioned back in March as Relay for Life — a charity CD being put together to raise money for the American Cancer Society — Kokoromi member Heather Kelley updates to note that the compilation has just been released to iTunes and amazon.mp3 as Songs for the Cure ’09, with some 19 tracks by indie and games-related musicians.
You can preview the tracks via either site, which so far have turned up very strong showings by 2D Boy’s Kyle Gabler with a skittering downtempo track that doesn’t sound far removed from the excellent score he composed for World of Goo, Joshua ‘Zen Albatross‘ Kopstein with a very bouncy chiptune track, and Heather Kelley herself, pulling vocal duties on Don’t Eat Sky’s track Pears that may or may not be about a game itself (reference the lyrics here).
Keep watching Josh Whelchel’s site for more information on the release (which it seems hasn’t quite been updated yet), which, at the end of the initial push, had already raised some $5600 for the cause.
