This is a sad one. The creator wrote and recorded some songs for his sister, who had cancer. He was interviewed by a local news show and he started this project to press the record on pink vinyl. Everything seemed good at first, but then he ran into some problems getting the record pressed. In the end, he decided to refund the money to the backers, but he never did. He just disappeared. Sure, it was only $810 and his sister died, but he still made promises.
