A Jazz Homage to One of the Greatest JRPG Sagas

The name “Persona” is synonymous with iconic music. From the foundational themes of the first Persona to the electrifying tracks that made Persona 5 an instant classic, the Atlus Sound Team's catchy soundtracks are now an integral part not only of JRPG history, but also of video game history as a whole.

That's why iam8bit sees no better way to celebrate this historic thirty-year milestone than with a compilation album of Persona's greatest hits. But this is no mere "best-of" album; we've teamed up with our friends at Atlus to produce something that is truly worthy of the Persona name, a one-of-a-kind commemoration of one of gaming's most legendary franchises.

Introducing the Persona 30th Anniversary jazz album, a single-disc compilation brimming with Persona's greatest tracks, reinterpreted by the jazz mad scientists The Blueshift Big Band. They've reimagined fan-favorite Persona tracks, such as "Heaven," "Last Surprise," and, of course, "Aria of the Soul," through their signature soulful, syncopated lens. For this special iam8bit edition, we’ve pressed it on beautiful 180-gram black vinyl, for an exceptional listening experience.

For the album cover, we called on award-winning illustrator and iam8bit friend Mark Borgions to imagine a jazz band made up of beloved Persona characters. The result? A true gem that perfectly complements the entire iam8bit x Persona vinyl collection. It's simply a must-have.
