'meat factory ear worms'

http://www.rte.ie/radio1/doconone/the-curious-ear-doconone-meat-factory-ear-worms.html

When being introduced to different audio styles, we were played 'Meat Factory Ear Worms' by Richie Beirne. This is a documentary style audio piece following the experiences of the author. He talks about the time he worked in a meat factory "on the killing line". He goes onto introduces us to the 'musical ear worms' he uses to get through the "tough work". 

The contrast between the music and the violent atmospheric sounds of the meat factory creates a brilliant audio piece. I personally really enjoyed this piece, and therefore decided to use it as style inspiration for my own piece.
