Boto (Encantado) by Artificial Memory Trace

of slightly enhanced LP BOTO [ENCANTADO]
originally released by in Belgium by ini'itu label: http://www.iniitu.net/index_iniitu.htm

What Artificial Memory Trace proposes here is 2 sides (now as one continuous piece) of “decomposed and recomposed” landscapes and details, mostly centered around the Boto (Inia geoffrensis geoffrensis) also known as Amazon River Dolphin or Pink Dolphin. Just as the Boto is rumored 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.
For those who need to know, the liner notes include extensive descriptions of the source sounds (see pdf docs in bonus features, please)
