"Slavek Kwi, aka Artificial Memory Trace, is a cultural refugee as much as an actual one. He walked 3 sleepless days without food to reach the West. This intensity and the power of his will is present in all that he does, be it the organic sound realm he creates, or the graphics and handwriting he invents. His musical universe is a precisely structured and perfect balanced mix of diverse 'Musique Concréte' materials. Frederick Rzewski, his musical mentor, has assisted him over the past 5 years and has been a major influence, as well as John Cage. Slavek is a cult hero and his 'hit' record The Ality Absfract (on Audioview/Lowlands & sold out) has become a collectors item. From his unique lanjavascript:validateForm()
javascript:validateForm()guage, his invention on fonts, to his unearthly harmonies, everything Slavek touches, turns into Slavek. On this new CD, KWI gives emphasis to the combination of auditive and physical aspects from soundscapes. He creates architectural structures with highly unusual combinations of sounds, almost only of concrete origin. He is constantly searching for balance through observing the nature of each participant. Sounds are playing roles of 'individuals' coexisting inside 'societies of sounds' as he calls his compositions. The wide context of creative output from A.M.T. shakes up the world of electronic music by giving it the fresh wind of natural acoustics. This record has to be experienced!"

"AMT is Slavek Kwi, a Czech sound artist living in Belgium. His first record on Audioview/Lowlands was acclaimed by many people. 'A very interesting work, rich in sound elements, soundscapes, images...a reform of musique concrete.' -- Jerome Noetinger. After a long silence with only some compilation tracks, here at last is his second record. Very rich compositions, sometimes closer to the first release, but this CD offers a larger 'sounds palette'."
