Artificial Memory Trace
Slavek Kwi, alias Artificial Memory Trace is a cultural and musical refugee. He walked three 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 invented. His musical universe is a precisely structured and perfectly balanced mix of diverse "musique concrete" materials.

Slavek is a cult hero and his hit record "The Ality Absfract" has become a collectors item.
