The Deku Trio's "Zelda & Jazz" albums finally arrive on vinyl
The casual jazz Legend of Zelda tribute albums are now available for pre-order on special marble vinyl
Zelda and jazz fans rejoice, The Deku Trio has arrived on vinyl!
The Deku Trio’s two Legendary Zelda jazz albums are finally making their way onto vinyl this spring. US customers can pre-order from GameChops.shop, international customers from Diggers Factory.
The Deku Trio is a project that crafts laid back jazz covers with progressive arrangements. The goal is to take the iconic Legend of Zelda melodies to new places, with interesting re-harmonizations and rich, soulful instrumentation.
It’s been quite a wild ride since our local Philadelphia record plant closed down.
Our vinyl operation had really started spinning, with a catalog of 14 different titles from musicians all over the world. But as many vinyl collectors know, this is a delicate medium, and late 2024 forced us to regroup and find a new home for our vinyl albums.
Now, just a few days into spring 2025, we’ve landed on our feet with the incredible Furnace Record Pressing in Virginia. With top quality equipment and relentless QA, we’re excited to announce two brand new albums to our catalog of high quality video game covers on vinyl.
Zelda & Jazz and Zelda & Jazz II are runs of 1,000 units each, with approved test pressings and print assets. They are due to be pressed in May, with a target ship date to listeners of June 1st. Diggers Factory is hosting an exclusive variant.
US and Canada – pre-order direct from GameChops.shop
Rest of World – pre-order an exclusive variant from Diggers Factory.
Immerse yourself in the timeless world of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time with Zelda & Jazz — a cozy, 12-track coffeehouse jazz tribute pressed on stunning green marble vinyl.
