CACTO is a free improvisation project between the long time musical partners Nuno Torres and Ricardo Jacinto. From an electro-accoustic context they have developed a particular intrumental noisy dialogue. Strongly influenced by concrete and spectral musical aspects they have been working on a free improvisational context.
Their first album, in a duet configuration, was recorded in an Anechoic Chamber, a place where the musical/sound aesthetic of the project found its perfect first site-specific recording context.
