100% Bioplastic LP's ! One of the world's first bioplastic pressings.

Single LP / Gatefold Jacket with 12 page booklet insert
Art direction, Prop design & Artwork by Nitcha Tothong (Fame)
Independent label Ropeadope has teamed up with Evolution Music UK to press one of the world’s first bioplastic LPs. Evovinyl bioplastic is a plant based high performance natural polymer that will have a profound impact on sustainability in the vinyl pressing process. The first pressing will be Sirintip’s carbon, a project that addresses climate change from a musical perspective, with sustainability built into the process. Carbon was recorded at Manifold Recording Studios, a carbon neutral solar-powered studio on 16 acres of rural land in North Carolina.
As Sirintip is bringing climate change to the forefront through her music, it is natural that she would be one of the first to embrace this new, sustainable technology. Risk is inherent in creating change, and while the cost is not at parity with PVC, helping to pioneer and work through this change to help it move to the mainstream is a risk she and Ropeadope are willing to take. Fans who support the project will own one of the first of its kind bioplastic LPs, and will be a voice to further the perfection of the process. carbon will use 100% recycled chipboard for the outer jackets.

about
aqi was written to bring awareness to air pollution. aqi stands for air quality index. For this song, I took the aqi data from Bangkok in Jan & Feb 2020 and assigned it to different intervals based on the traditional Thai Silapakorn Scale(1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7, which is actually a 14 note scale so the 3rd & 7th are somewhere between the 2-4 & 6-8 of the western mixolydian scale). The intervals were chosen based on the severity of the air pollution.
Good 50-75 = 1, 2
Moderate 75-100 = b3
Unhealthy for sensitive groups 100-125 = 4th
Unhealthy for sensitive groups 125 - 150 = 5, 6th
Unhealthy 151-175 = b7
Unhealthy 176 - 200 = b7
We also created a sequence of the worse the air pollution, the more dissonant the interval; the better, the more harmonious.
lyrics
aqi
she’s staring at the lit up city on a glass floor and หายใจ (breathes)
she’s reminiscing on what future life would feel like (ในอนาคตจะเป็นอย่างไร,ในอนาคต,ในอนาคต)
the concrete, past these streets, seek and find (ในอนาคตมันจะเป็นอย่างไร,ในอนาคต,ในอนาคต)
must believe, her heartbeat, her goldmine (ในอนาคตมันจะเป็นอย่างไร,ในอนาคต,ในอนาคต)
open up the sky at her command
she’s coming
far away where nothing turns to sand
she’s waiting
if only she knew, to see what is true, the truth of her fog, her own monologue
if only she could, i know that she would, she knows that she can, the world’s in her hand
it's hard to see the edge but still she can imagine her ความฝัน (dream)
somewhere inside there is a voice that wants to scream out
must break free, pave the streets, seek and find (ในอนาคตมันจะเป็นอย่างไร,ในอนาคต,ในอนาคต)
must believe, her heartbeat, her goldmine (ในอนาคตมันจะเป็นอย่างไร,ในอนาคต,ในอนาคต)
open up the sky at her command
she’s coming
far away where nothing turns to sand
she’s waiting
if only she knew, to see what is true, the truth of her fog, her own monologue
if only she could, i know that she would, she knows that she can, the world’s in her hand

Written over the course of two years, “Chances” captures an array of life experiences in moving soft-focus pop songs. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 20, 2022
A story of sadness, confusion, and despair ending in hope and certainty that the cosmos is not a random and meaningless jumble of atoms populated by mindless mechanical men, but a world of meaning, beauty, and truth. Emotions and the heart are not everything, but they are an essential part of being human. ianjworsomething
