    Limited edition vinyl pressing of Alice Boyd's debut EP 'From The Understory' on Eco-Mix.

    'From The Understory' is an exploration of our relationship with plants and our role in the ecosystems with live in. Created as part of Alice Boyd's artist residency at the Eden Project, this collection of songs brings together the human voice, electronic textures created with plants and field recordings to tell the story of civilisation at a tipping point.

    The EP is pressed onto Eco-Mix, a 100% recycled compound made from trimmed flash and leftovers from any colour which cannot otherwise be reused. The trimmed flash is the excess vinyl that is trimmed off after the vinyl puck is pressed, and the leftover colour granulate is usually from 2 or 3 colour effect discs that cannot be reused into single colour discs. This method produces a unique look and colour for each vinyl, cutting down on waste and making each record individual. The colour you receive will be a lucky dip, and can range from sea green to ruby red!

about

‘Imbalance’ asks the question ‘which way?’. These lyrics imagine a fork in the road, the choice to either spiral further into crisis, or the opportunity to make change.

lyrics

Which way?
Which way?
Which way?
The sun has gone away
The sun...

I stand on a path
Overgrown and far
Which way?
Which way?

Can’t you see the problem?
Can’t you see the truth of it all?
Can’t you see the way out?

Which way?
Which way?
Which way?
