IPY25 unites three trailblazers of experimental music — Ikue Mori (DNA, Downtown NYC scene), Phew (Aunt Sally), and YoshimiO (Boredoms, OOIOO, Saicobab) — for their first trio project. The album captures their telepathic interplay across electronics, drums, voice, and bamboo flute, fusing avant-garde soundscapes with an urgent sense of improvisational freedom. Recorded live at Club U.F.O. in Tokyo and crafted during the 2020 shelter-in-place period, this collaboration radiates both raw energy and deep connection, standing as a landmark meeting of Japan’s most adventurous musical minds.
