Music has always been a way to express yourself, and much like how extremely (extremely) "gangsta" (yes, I did just use quotes) rappers pour a 40 for their homies, there's a whole new way to pay tribute to the dead. And it's a bit messed up.
That's where And Vinyly comes in.
Imagine: maybe it's been due to old age or maybe a terrible parachuting accident, but you've died. Instead of a traditional burial or having your ashes spread at sea, you could be turned into a vinyl record. Your ashes can be pressed into an actual, playable record. And there you are - immortal.
Basically, the ashes are sprinkled by a person of your choosing and baked onto a 24-minute disk, which can either be left as simple pops and crackles ("the minimal approach"), or grooved to play your last will & testament, a favorite song, or a personal message in your voice.
It gives a whole new meaning to the "death metal" and "soul" genres, doesn't it?
The average ash-load can be spread out to thirty records, which, if you so desire, can even be sold under the in-house label (R.I.V. - Rest In Vinyl) at stores around the world. People could buy your ashes and play you on a record forever.
What?
