CAN MUSIC SAVE THE WORLD?
We are witnessing a climate-oriented transformation of what music is and how it comes to be. Recomposed shows how musicians around the world are using the cultural power of music to link climate awareness to climate action.
Award-winning author and academic Kyle Devine profiles EarthPercent, founded by Brian Eno and others to help funnel money from the music business to climate causes. Devine enrolls in a course led by ClimateEQ, which teaches carbon literacy for the music industry. He investigates a platform to help musicians finance solar energy. Devine embeds himself among a dynamic cast of manufacturers and inventors seeking ways to make records more sustainable, from recycling old vinyl to making discs from bioplastic. At the center of this multifaceted story is the climate impact of music festivals and touring musicians.
Everywhere you look, music and our habitat are changing together.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Everywhere you look, music is changingoverhauling itself in response to climate crisis. There are records made of plants, stereos that run on sunshine, streaming services powered like hot springs. There are nonprofit and investment initiatives geared toward environmental concerns. There are sector-specific carbon calculators, literacy programs, and organizations that are sizing up (and drawing down) the environmental impact of music on every level. Top to bottom, we are witnessing a climate-oriented transformation of what music is and how it comes to be.Praise for Decomposed: The Political Ecology of MusicDevine's critical history of recording formats throws a necessary wrench into [the] mythology of musical purity.Alex Ross, The New YorkerDid you know that the CO2 equivalents generated by consumption of recorded music have not declined in the era of music streamingsupposedly an era of music dematerialized, rendered virtualbut instead have as much as doubled? Kyle Devine knows, and in Decomposed he teaches us about such things with intelligence, humaneness, and passion. His book is at once a history of materialities of recording, from lac beetle resins in the 1920s to today's energy-sump server farms, and a manifesto for ecological scrutiny of our musical behaviors.Gary Tomlinson, John Hay Whitney Professor of Music and Humanities, Yale University; author of A Million Years of Music The major look at the environmental impact of the music industry and a brilliant exploration of how musicians are thinking about and being influenced by the climate crisis Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
