DESCRIPTION |
|  | ARTIFICIAL MEMORY TRACE Boto [Encantado] Label : ini.itu Year : 2011 Format : LP Style : Experimental Availability : In stock
Price : 13.50 € - BUY
| | | | Description : | Artificial Memory Trace is the long standing musical project of Slavek Kwi, who was born in Czechoslovakia, lived for 14 years in Belgium, and since 2000 has been based in Ireland. Slavek has be en making music for more than 20 years under the label Artificial Memory Trace.
His works are precise combinations of restructured (mostly) environmental sounds, where the notions of perception, sensation, cognition, and ultimately reality are questioned, notably through the use of musique concrète techniques and graphics scores, sometimes combined with elements of performance. He has collaborated with many other musicians, working on the articulation of industrial music, field recordings and musique concrète, among them PBK, Brume, Eric La Casa, Das Synthetische Mischgewebe.
Since 2007 Slavek has assisted Francisco López in his Mamori workshops in the Amazonian forest, which is where some of the source material present on this LP originates. Coupled with being a sound artist and composer, SlavekKwi also facilitates workshops for autistic children, b ased on sound experiencing.
What Artificial Memory Trace proposes here is 2 sides of 'decomposed and recomposed' landscapes and details, mostly centred around the Boto (Inia geoffrensis geoffrensis) also known as Amazon River Dolphin or Pink Dolphin.
Just as the Boto is rumoured to undergo human-like transformations, most of this record is about transformation: sounds are isolated, cut, scaled up or down, modified and finally reassembled in a delicate and quite peaceful collage. Slowly twirling around its object, time is taken to examine and explore the environment, including all other sound sources, creating a cubist perspective which is thoroughly unfolded. At times enigmatic, intimate and pastoral, it is a work that will slowly reveal its nuances.
