INDUSTRY STANDARD

RWEI-021 // Releases January 18, 2026

What you are about to hear is the result of four decades of exploring some of the darkest and most disturbing places on earth, documenting an industrial death machine. These are the sounds of factory farms, fur farms, animal testing labs, slaughterhouses, and live animal markets, gathered during undercover work exposing cruelty across the globe — where mechanised systems have become the norm: an accepted standard.

The sounds of the death machine have been processed and sculpted: a sheep's skittering hooves across a metal floor become a rhythmic shake; the hum of a fan system in a pig farm becomes a layered drone for a meditation; the incidental sound of a radio in a rabbit farm lends a classical, Clockwork touch.

These eight tracks across forty minutes explore an entire world you were never meant to see — nor hear. We invite you now to listen.
