Are you planning on doing this kind of bundle again with other genres of indie music? Because right now it seems like it would be restricted to just 'videogame-style' music in the future, but I would totally love to see something like that for other genres.

We'll see what the final numbers are once all is said and done but I think we would be up for doing it again. Many of us have non-game original music, and there are a few of those in the bundle already, but it's a lot harder to pitch something that isn't game-related. We got picked up by sites like Kotaku, Joystiq and Destructoid because of the game connection.

Yeah, that's understandable. The gaming world has definitely got a lot more momentum going for it than the music world at the moment (and that's putting it mildly). I guess I just don't see how far into the future you could go with just this particular market segment, even if it does make for easier publicity at first.
Either way, I hope you guys try to score a deal with the Bastion, Machinarium, Shatter, and Nation Red devs, cause those would be pretty cool to see in a bundle.
And if you guys do decide to branch out into other genres, and happen to do a Metal bundle, let me know, cause I'm currently working on a 'Melodic-thrash' Metal album and would love to be a part of it.
