Courtesy of the Jamie Reid Estate and John Marchant Gallery, the image anchors the project in a lineage of British countercultural art, extending the CHANT Artist Collective's environmental ethos into visual form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe CHANT Artist Collective was formed by environmentalist Dan Morrell and producer Youth as a creative extension of Morrell's long-standing tree-planting initiatives. Released via new eco-label Balance Recordings, a proportion of funds from Relics of Tree Worship (In Dub) will support tree-planting initiatives, including projects located at the \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003ebirthplace and final resting place of Bob Marley in Nine Mile, Jamaica - linking recorded sound directly to living landscape and reggae's spiritual homeland.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a dub record, Relics of Tree Worship (In Dub) uses repetition, low-frequency depth and space as a form of meditation. Youth and Gaudi's production balances analogue warmth with expansive sound design, while contributions across the album bring history, myth and contemporary environmental urgency into dialogue. The project also marks one of the final creative appearances of Lee 'Scratch' Perry, whose legacy of sonic experimentation and spiritual subversion resonates throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Balance Recordings","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53747160154439,"sku":"CADIZLP294","price":40.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/8053\/1527\/files\/RoTW_LP.png?v=1778169324","url":"https:\/\/shop.balancerecordings.com\/products\/relics-of-tree-worship-lp-cd","provider":"Balance Recordings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
