"The first electronic music I ever played as a teenager was on a Hammond organ. The drum machine and rhythm generators in particular fascinated me; simplistic devices but somehow very creative, and something in the sound was strangely compelling.

I heard Lee Scratch Perry, Sly and the Family Stone, Cabaret Voltaire and Suicide do some remarkably enduring music with such drum boxes, which of course later went on to become a basic element of electronic dance music in general. With this piece I revisit some of these dusty old machines and also some of the other vintage instruments in the studio at Worm, plus my modular synthesiser and sampler, instruments from Rob Hordijk and some occasional blasts of modulated radio." – Richard Scott

Richard Scott is a Berlin-based creator and performer of forward-leaning electronic and electroacoustic music. Once a saxophonist focused on free jazz and group improvisation, for the past two decades he has been working intensely with a variety of technologies, methods and musical forms. In recent years he has concentrated his energies on creative composition, improvisation and production, with a particular emphasis on analogue modular synthesisers; including those remarkable instruments created by Don Buchla, EMS, Serge Tcherepnin, Émilie Gillet and Rob Hordijk.

About 60 million people work to make our clothes. 70% are in Asia, 80% are women who often work in unworthy conditions. Human rights violations are accumulating: poverty wages, moral and sexual harassment, trade union repression, child labor, unsustainable work schedules, repeated accidents, exposure to toxic substances, pollution.
The “Rethink your clothes” campaign by Caritas Luxembourg/ Fairtrade Lëtzebuerg asbl is part of this approach to increase corporate and customer responsibility, given the social and environmental impacts of the garment sector around the world.

Rethink your Clothes is also a short docu-fiction made by Charlotte Bruneau (LU) and produced by Caritas Luxembourg in Dhaka city, Bangladesh, in 2018. During the shooting, and as sound operator, I recorded few field recordings in a garment factory and we make also interviews with people working in that insane industry model.

My soundscape contribution gives an idea of how is the sound atmosphere inside garment factories and how terribles conditions become «  almost  » normal for workers.
Regarding the «  Each Morning of the World  » usual subject I decided to forget the time aspect (the morning) because there is no day, there is no night within slavery.

Recorded somewhere in Dhaka City, Bangladesh, in september 2018 and composed in april 2019.
