'Suikyo' documents a first-time meeting between three Japanese improvisers: Takashi Masubuchi on guitar and harmonica, Ayami Suzuki on voice and electronics, and Tomo on hurdy-gurdy. Recorded at Permian on the 29th of January, 2023, it's a stunning, forty-minute long improvisation of rare artistic sympathy. Notably, it was the first time the trio had performed together, though Masubuchi and Suzuki have prior performed as a duo; on the evening itself, the trio performance was preceded by solo sets from Suzuki and Tomo, which served as a kind of introduction, of sorts, to the broader aesthetic visions of two of the musicians on 'Suikyo.'
