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
it’s alright (plastic pollution)
Because she views “carbon” as a call to action for herself as much as her listeners, Sirintip centers self-disclosure throughout. Lyrics for “it’s alright” emerged from text messages between the artist and her best friend who passed away tragically at 28. The song’s connection to climate change is in the plastic instrumentation, but the message is more universal: We don’t need to be perfect. Michael League plays Bass on "it's alright". Sirintip used plastic trash for percussion programming
lyrics
babe, sometimes things get, get in the way
before you break, always remember how to play before the pressure takes it all away
try to do what’s right
you don’t need to try and fight
we can’t always win it all
we can’t and won’t, no no no
sometimes we are wrong
but that’s ok, no need to hold it on
we move on
keep high and stand tall
no need to do it, do it all
cause it’s alright
follow the arrow
deep in your marrow
tear the walls
cause it’s alright
babe, is it hard to stay right here where you are?
holding onto memories won’t heal all your scars
tell me what you need but then just don’t forget to breathe
try to do what’s right
you don’t need to try and fight
we can’t always win it all
we can’t and won’t, no no no
sometimes we are wrong
but that’s ok, no need to hold it on
we move on
keep high and stand tall
no need to do it, do it all
cause it’s alright
follow the arrow
deep in your marrow
tear the walls
cause it’s alright
keep high and stand tall
no need to do it, do it all
cause it’s alright
follow the arrow
deep in your marrow
tear the walls
cause it’s alright

Adam Neely and Shawn Crowder reignited my love of jazz as an innovative exploration of music and rhythm.

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
