Migration Studios is a new social enterprise and the world's first recording studios dedicated to carbon capture. Set in the heart of the Cotswolds, it is a unique space for artists, creators and labels of all sizes to produce music and simultaneously contribute positively in the biggest challenge of our day, climate change. 

Migration Studios, is an independent residential recording complex and is spearheading a new approach to the relationship between the production of music and the environment. Through its partnership with Platform Earth, the studio channels 100% of its profits to the environmental arts organisation which then focuses the funds to specific environmental issues. 

The first project Migration Studios will support is the Sussex Kelp Restoration Project, which is working to conserve 304 square kilometres of Sussex coastline. The native kelp locks up to 20 times more carbon that land-based forests. Successful restoration of the area has the potential to lock away as much carbon as London's music industry emits every single year.
