We welcome you all to another Suhina Klubi on the first week of November — read more on what to expect from our next event!

𝗡𝗮𝗼𝘁𝗼 𝗬𝗮𝗺𝗮𝗴𝗶𝘀𝗵𝗶 is in search of music before its word and concept were formally defined. A music free from formal constraints, travelling between places with flowing motions and sounds initiating from daily life – its rhythms, sonority and space. Naoto started playing drums at the age of 13 and studied under Takuya Abe in Japan. In 2011, he moved to Rennes, France, and returned to Japan in 2014 collaborating with various artists regardless of genres – from Japan and overseas.

𝙋𝙊𝙇𝙔𝙁𝙍𝙀𝙀

Polyfree is Raoul Björkenheim’s new moniker for a shifting array of combos, mainly a trio with Jori Huhtala on bass, but for this gig he merges with Sam Ospovat as a duo into a musical language under construction!

Sam Ospovat is a drummer and composer interested in the intersection of new rhythmic structures and improvisation. After his immersion in 20th century percussion music and Haitian drumming, Ospovat developed song forms resembling Calder/like mobiles. The New York Times has called his work “prismatic, oddly seductive, inspired by the 12 tone modern classical composers, the snarled energies of math rock and the rough-riding vigor of jazz improvising”.

: Nuno Martins

Raoul Björkenheim is a Finnish-American guitarist and composer who has been creating original music for the past four decades, and has during that time also taught several generations of Finnish jazz musicians at the Sibelius Academy. Describing his on-going work as investigative guitarism, he is best known for an expressionistic and lyrical guitar style.

𝙒𝙄𝙍𝙍𝙍2

Wirrr2 is the collaborative project of performance & voice artist Doris Steinbichler and drummer Lukas Wöber. Through an intuitive interplay of vocals, drums and effects, they weave a pulsating web of tribal rhythms, electronic textures and mystical soundscapes – oscillating between free impro, punk, noise and experimental music.

Steinbichler, active in Mexico since the 1990s, merges vocal and embodied performance, with extended techniques, live electronics and live looping. Wöber, active in the Austrian scene since 2010 as a drummer and percussionist, explores rhythm as a collective experience and an expansion of consciousness. Together they form a performative ritual transforming sound into a physical, ecstatic experience.
