    Amazing! There are a lot of talented people with channels on UA-cam doing covers of famous songs and they never miss a beat and their channels are very popular, but playing to a record and playing in a band are two very different things! Yoyoka being so young yet so seasoned and so gifted is a true virtuoso!

    It's still incredible when you think about it, being only 14 years old and having such a wealth of experience in the studio, a catalog of songs that very few, if any, drummers have. Or will all this stop, in any case it's not me who's going to complain about this exceptional talent.

      I have a friend over right now and she asked, "Who's the awesome guy on drums?" I had to tell her it's a girl, she's still a kid though, so I'm sure she'll dress differently in a couple more years. Personally I could care less, I simply love her drumming.

    I just love how expressive your drum solo is, while not ever really leaving the pocket. Most solos either go wild, or stick to the base rhythm. It is rare to be able to do both.

    I could listen to this tune all night. Ken needs to fit in a bass solo and this song would be even greater! Yoyoka's snare and highhat work was superb! Creative solo as well ~ she is one amazing musician!
    I swear I could hear the jazz club patrons applauding in the background at the end of her solo! She did a standing room only concert with this group back last yr I think it was in San Jose. IAndrew Rooney was right about this being composed. So restained and absolutely fitting with the gig! What do you want to bet she could deliver the same take after take? Same sound level, pace and feel. I hope she becomes a studio musician!

    DńB are so locked together that it sometimes feels like one instrument. When Yoyo changes from rim to snare - what a turbo feeling.
    This solo is a masterpiece! Listen to it many times and you see the greatness - another step towards jazz and she brings the rich organic Yoyoka sound from the drums. That sets her apart from many jazz/fusion drummers that tune their kits for max technical ease/speed instead of what sounds the best for the music.

    • @Rob-Yule
      @Rob-Yule 2 місяці тому +1

      100% on the DnB combo - Ken and YOYOKA are a fantastic combo - always locked in all the songs. I hope her fabulous green YOYOKA snare in the background makes an appearance on upcoming tracks. You are spot on with the tuning, between YOYOKA and her dad Aki the drums are always correct for sound!

      @@Rob-Yule I think the collaboration with Ken Okada group is the most interesting progression.
      I am thinking that co-writing music with Ken and the others - and maybe find a vocalist that brings in a personal message (and pop) to the songs could be something worth exploring. But every step is always a risk of going in the wrong direction...
