      There's a music piece called "Day by Dey" that she plays with Gergo Borlai. The video is 8 years old now, but still present on his channel. It was the first video of her that I've seen and I still can't believe it's 1x speed. It's like the scene from the Matrix: "Take a look at that neurokinetics they're way above normal". 🤯

      Bingo. It’ll take the world about 5-10 years before people feel safe to say so. There are certainly hundreds of players at or above her level from a purely technical standpoint. But it’s her musical genius that sets her apart from the rest. She makes that thing talk, sing, whatever she wants it to. She makes songs better with ease. And nobody else sounds like her.
