An impromptu duo of Yasunori Suzuki on drums and Kenji Arata on piano. The two met in the 80's in a band called Ozaki Kazuyuki & Coastal City. The group won the Grand Prix at the 30th Yamaha Popular Song Contest in 1985, but the two left and went their separate ways. However, after 25 years, the two met again on the Internet. Formed an improvisational duo in 2017. Although it is an improvisation, it is a style that mixes not only freeform but also reconstruction of songs with clear tonality. The motifs are all folk music such as western music, oriental music, Latin music, Brazilian music, African music, and all kinds of music inspired by jazz, rock, R&B, gospel, reggae, etc.
