Music made from sounds of Cornish sea created to raise money to tackle plastic pollution

Ocean sounds have been transformed into music in order to raise money to fight against plastic pollution.

Stitched together from waves crashing on the rocks of a beach in Cornwall, they have been created by recording artist Keynvor whose debut single is titled "Preservation".

With a goal of raising awareness and money for ocean conservation, the project created by musician Sebastian Plano and label Mercury KX, will donate 100 per cent of its profits to Surfers Against Sewage charity, which aims to tackle plastic pollution and other issues around the UK coastline.

“I took the sound of waves hitting the rocks to create the beat and all the rhythmic elements of the piece are sounds of the ocean,” said Mr Plano. “The sea has so much power and I wanted to convey this in my music.”

Surfers Against Sewage's chief executive, Hugo Tagholm said it was "stoked to be amplifying the call of the ocean through the Keynvor project."

He added: “Our oceans are in peril, facing unprecedented challenges including the growing threat of plastic pollution. Together we can respond to this oceanic siren.”
