*2025 stock* "K7 Box" encompasses performances and soundscapes recorded at unique venues, including specially commissioned announcement sounds for the Yokosuka Museum of Art. Each track brings forth Suzuki’s lifelong dedication to the art of listening, his fascination with natural and manmade acoustics, and his innovative approach to instrument building. Enriched by a booklet with texts by Suzuki himself and renowned music writer David Toop, the release provides insights into Suzuki’s creative philosophy in both Japanese and English.

Akio Suzuki, revered internationally for his avant-garde approach, uses sound not merely as a medium but as a means to connect past and present, nature and architecture. His practice, rooted in the observation of echoes, invites the audience to engage in contemplative listening, transforming ordinary environments into spaces of deep auditory awareness.
