"The artists
Christopher Tin
Christopher Tin's debut album Calling All Dawns redefines the phrase `epic musical journey'. It won two GRAMMY awards, including the only GRAMMY ever to be given for a video game song (for `Baba Yetu', the theme from Civilization IV)'. Sung in 12 different languages, the album explores the cycle of life, death, and rebirth as told through the poems and prayers of different cultures around the world. And the scale of the production is just as staggering: Tin pulled together over 200 musicians from 5 continents, including many legends of classical and world music (Frederica von Stade, Soweto Gospel Choir, Anonymous 4, the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Dulce Pontes, Sussan Deyhim, and many more).
OK Go
OK Go's Twelve Remixes of Four Songs is a collection of remixes of some of the best songs from 2010's Of the Blue Colour of the Sky, along with studio versions of those tracks.
They Might Be Giants
Album Raises New and Troubling Questions is a rarities collection of songs recorded during the band's sessions for their most recent full-length album, Join Us.
Jonathan Coulton
It's hard to pick the 14 best songs from Jonathan Coulton's catalog, because really they are ALL the best. But this collection has all the favorites you know plus a couple you probably don't, including tracks from his latest album, Artificial Heart, and three brand new live tracks from his recent Artificial Heart tour. Which is his greatest hit? Only you can decide!
MC Frontalot
MC Frontalot, considered a godfather of nerdcore, has been delivering dope raps about nerd culture for more than a decade. He's bringing his favorite cuts to the Humble Music Bundle in Favoritism, a tightly curated set of tracks from 2005 to the present. MC Frontalot has also authored a beefy set of never-before-seen liner notes exposing the raw meat behind each of his picks for the compilation.
Hitoshi Sakimoto
Rediscover your memories from the acclaimed Valkyria Chronicles series with this compilation featuring the best music from all 3 games. From composer Hitoshi Sakimoto (Final Fantasy XII, Tactics Ogre, Final Fantasy Tactics), experience the orchestrated melodies of the main themes, the adrenaline-pumping battle pieces and reminisce on the adventures from all the characters in Gallia."
