Wampís of Guayabal & Aboutface - Los Bosquesinos (People of the Forests)

An intercultural collaboration with the Indigenous Wampís forest community living in the Peruvian Amazon: exploring evocative soundscapes and ancient nampet songs in the Wampís Territory, to support indigenous-led conservation, and initiatives against illegal deforestation and acts of ecocide.

100% of all sales revenues from this release will directly go to the Wampís to protect their rainforest territory. 

During a month living with the Wampís in the Amazon Rainforest, Aboutface and the Wampis community collaboratively captured field-recordings, music instrumentation and traditional Wampis Nampets – ancient songs sung from the perspective of animals living in their rainforest environment.

These recordings then informed 4 improvised performances to articulate the story of the 4 Nampet songs, from within the habitat of each animal, to depict nature and culture as inseparable, and to propose that humanity is not exclusive to humans, but a multinaturalist characteristic available to all living organisms.
