she is so amazing, great personality too. she also is main endorser for tama drums. and if you are interested: her YT channel is full of drumvideos ( a great drum "drum duet" with senri kawaguchi for example) and more. thank you for your great reaction and appreciation of tamu and nemophila.
Wow! That was seriously high energy. Japanese bands seem to be able to assimilate pop culture from around the world and mix it all together and make it their own. It gave me vibes here and there of a late 80's early 90's band just long enough to notice before it got all chunkified and thrashy. Pretty cool, and the drumming was on point.
There's tape kicking around out there of Yoyoka and Tamu doing a promotional performance/ drum clinic for some electronic drum kit. I am old but I'm pretty sure Yoyoka performed with Nemophila at the all female festival mentioned here in the comments. They played a severely truncated Moby Dick.
She is a magnificent drummer. Nemophila is a supergroup-talent for miles!
Yoyoka was the artist, and she had Hazuki supporting her at Naon Yaon. (Nemophila also played that day)
At the 2022 version of the annual Naon no Yaon female artists' fest Yoyoka and Tamu had what was billed as a "drum battle" on "Moby Dick" and Hazuki and Azu of Lazygunsbrisky were supporting them. That was right after Nemophila's set and right before the Princess Princess medley that usually ends the first half of the NnY show.
Thank you for the additional info!!
@@otobokegaijin6218is there video footage of this available?
2 favorite bands The Warning and Nemophila.
BOOM!
Warning drummer Paulina's nickname is Pau, pronounced "pow!"
Nice reaction, thank you! Tamu is an _amazing_ lady.
My personal favourite drummers: Nicko McBrain (Iron Maiden), Daniel Löble (Helloween), Haruna (Lovebites) and Tamu. All of them amazingly skilled, versatile in terms of genres, therefore top class.
Please react to more Nemophila, Zen, Oiran!! So diverse an aggressive
I’ll definitely do more
Just go to Tamu's channel, she drops a few drum-videoes of their songs
There is actually a video of Murata Tamu doing a drum-off with Senri--you will love that. Some background on the band:
Nemophil-a (NOT “Nemophil-i-a) are one of the bands to watch, no question. They just started in 2019 and blew up fast. As you can see from the gang vocals, they don't take themselves too seriously-Hazuki even winks. They almost seem to be enjoying a private joke, that goes "Hi, we're a bunch of cute, fun girls and we are going to rip your face off, and you are going to like it.”
They are a supergroup composed of:
ex-Lipstick vocalist Mayu (founded the band)
ex-Disqualia guitarist Hazuki (also plays with Lisa-X)
ex-Hölderlins bassist Haraguchi-san, and
ex-Soramimi drummer Murata Tamu (she is also in high demand for session work)
Until April 2024, they were a 5-piece band. The fifth member, and actually the band-leader until she left, was ex-Mary's Blood guitarist Saki, arguably one of the top metal guitarists in the world. It remains to be seen as of this writing what directions the band and Saki, respectively, will take.
Initially, they were just a side project, co-organized by Mayu with some help from Saki, largely to keep busy in the early days of the pandemic. They started by posting metal covers of well-known rock, pop and metal songs. Then they began posting originals, starting with “Oiran” ua-cam.com/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/v-deo.html
The viral reaction seems to have convinced them they were onto something potentially big, so they’ve been putting a lot more work into it, including some successful live-streams and an appearance at the annual Japanese female rock festival NAONのYAON. They tend toward hard and heavy, but also do ballads and some pop covers. Drummer Murata Tamu took time off to give birth to her son, and on her return, the rest of the bandmembers gave her a welcome back that resulted in an extremely moving moment captured on live stream: “Life” ua-cam.com/video/HFnEYhbEAqg/v-deo.html
After Oiran, others to check include "Dissension", which will fry whatever is left of your circuits: ua-cam.com/video/26aMuahxz8c/v-deo.html and “Raitei”, which means “Thunder” in Japanese, and yes, they bring the thunder: ua-cam.com/video/lh-dVLKP314/v-deo.html
More recent drops that showcase their intensity and versatility:
“Adabana” ua-cam.com/video/AxYiOwsu6wU/v-deo.html
“Style” ua-cam.com/video/Aph5GON6rPc/v-deo.html
(written by their bassist, Haraguchi-san)
“Seize the Fate” ua-cam.com/video/4tpgLyckVYg/v-deo.html
“Rise” ua-cam.com/video/rD3VMAm-9iA/v-deo.html
Saki is the only one who had been with a breakout band before (Mary’s Blood). Hazuki and Murata-tamu are also considered elite musicians and have worked with a lot of other top artists. Hara-san is the youngest but is clearly a great talent and has been developing in front of our eyes. She has already written several songs for the group. And of course Mayu is quickly establishing herself as a top tier metal vocalist.
They have toured the U.S. twice. I saw them live and they blew the roof off the place.
Nemophila’s youtube channel: ua-cam.com/channels/voAeGZoC8giXP59NOZABIA.htmlvideos
finally we get some Nemophila!
🔥🔥🔥
🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻
As well as a superb drummer, Tamu has a smile that lights up adjacent suburbs! She is an absolute delight, and goofs around on some videos, grinning at the camera. btw, as others have suggested, check out Lovebites, another all female Japanese band. Haruna, their 4'9" drummer is known as the Pocket Nuke!
Cheers from Sydney.
Rock on!
I concur!!!
There videos Adabana and Hypnosis really showcase Tamu.🔥🔥🔥 her drum fills are what really set her apart.
very much want to second this: Hypnosis and Adabana!
I agree...
To me Tamu is the modern day John Bonham !! 😮😊❤
I'm gonna throw this in - now you're hearing Tamu, several voices have already recommended Haruna of Lovebites, so -
Akane Hirose of Band-Maid. They have quite a variety of music and she does all of it justice.
Initially I think you need to hear "Freedom" live performance at Shibuya on February 14, 2020 that includes a rare drum solo in the middle with a magnificent following transition. Akane (ah-KAH-neh) always shines, but that one is special.
I recommend checking out the band Lovebites. Drummer Haruna. She is absolutely brilliant and accurate. 🤘
I don’t want to overload you after so many great comments. I’ll just say Tamu-San is how I found Nemophila and never looked back! ❤️🥁❤️🌸
NICE
Tamu also makes cookies. She used to live stream during covid. She enjoys being a home maker as much as musician.

That last 15 seconds had everyone in that joint jumping!
That's pure adrenalin!
Its been a while someone specifically ask for Tamu's information and I haven't post about any of NEMOPHILA's individual member details for quite a long time to avoid information overload 😅. However, since you asked with great interest and curiosity, here goes...
Known as the smiling drums goddess, Ai Murata (stage name: Murata Tamu, or Tamu for short) is a powerful and established professional solo drummer. She started as jazz drummer in 2007 at the early age of 15 and received guidance from a very well established session drummer, Masahiko Noguchi at Saila Drum School, Yokohama, Japan. Now she is also a lecturer/instructor at Saila. She is on top of her game as a support drummer and one of the most sought-after drummers for fill-in role in Japan for many years.
Tamu continue her drumming activities after graduated from high school and in 2013 she launched her own UA-cam channel Murata Tamu (by June 2022 it gained close to 65 millions views). That same year, she joined all girls rock band SORAMIMI.
She graduate from university in 2015, the same year she was awarded as the best female drummer in the voting project My Goddess 2015 (and did it again in 2017) by BEEAST - Living with Rock, Lifestyle Support Magazine.
She signed her first endorsement contract with TAMA Drums in 2016. SORAMIMI suspended in 2017 and from then on, her professional carrier in solo drumming started to picked-up drastically.
In January 2017, she released a self-produced DVD 'Murata Tamu's Hyper Drum Training and later made her debut in solo live performance in February at TSUTAYA O-Crest live music venue (it was a sold-out venue.)
In April 2017, she joined a project led by Takeshi Kuramochi and Daisuke Kurosawa for INSPION Inc., a corporate sound production company providing music for games and TV programs. Among their prominent clients are CAPCOM, Cygames, Square Enix, SEGA, Nippon Television Network Corporation, BANDAI NAMCO Studios and many more. She is still an active staff member of INSPION Inc. until now (2024).
In May 2017, she held a second live solo concert at TSUTAYA O-West and invited Japan's infamous drummer, Nyango Star as her guest. She released an EP titled INNOCENT in September with four original songs, one of which she also sings. She appeared at TSUTAYA O-West again for her third live solo concert to commemorate the release of INNOCENT.
In July 2017, Tamu was awarded as the best female drummer again in the voting project My Goddess 2017. She appeared in NAONのYAON, an outdoor stage festival celebrating female artists organized by legendary Japanese all-female metal band SHOW-YA, every year since 2017 and she is NAONのYAON 'house drummer'. She is one of the prominent support drummer in Guitar Girls Collection project co-organized by SAKI of Mary's Blood (NEMOPHILA guitarist, who just left the band few weeks ago).
She is also the drummer support for idol group The World Standard (WASUTA), Nanase Aikawa, Rie a.k.a Suzaku and many other successful artists. Tamu was very active with drums seminars (organized by TAMA Japan) at vocational schools and musical instrument stores; and Drum Clinic Tour in China.
In August 2017, she launched a UA-cam channel Tamu Zukan where she invite, learn and explore other drummers' skill set as well as various musical instruments.
In January 2018, Tama Drumsticks H-TMTM, Murata Tamu signature model hits the market. In March, she appeared in Naka-Kon 2018 (Kansas City, USA) - an annual convention celebrating anime, manga, cosplay, music, fashion and gaming. Tamu was invited as a guest drummer and performed at the event, a gesture of recognition and appreciation for her contribution to the industries under the INSPION banner.
She held another live concert at TSUTAYA O-West in May 2018 to commemorate the release of her double-sided A-side single "Super D & D-Completely Lead I'm Me / D Absolutely! SAMURAI in the Rain" featuring Ladybeard - former vocalist of Deadlift Lolita and Ladybaby, now a lead vocalist of BABYBEARD.
In mid 2018, she held her 5th installment of her solo live concerts at two venues, OSAKA MUSE and Shibuya WWW-X celebrating her entering into 10 years of professional drumming.
By 2019, she already had 6 live solo concerts under her belt with the latest one was held in January at TSUTAYA O-West.
In August 2019, she was invited to perform in Mayu Session band by vocalist, mayu. Mayu contacted her long time friend, a locally well-known live show support bassist Haraguchi-san (who is prominent in 5-strings bass) to join them and later recruited SAKI (MARY'S BLOOD guitarist that time, ex-Destrose, 7-strings guitarist, KILLER Guitars endorser) through mutual friend to play guitar. SAKI then introduced Hazuki (DISQUALIA guitarist, Ibanez endorser) to the rest of the band since Disqualia activities was put on hold and Hazuki that time was a support guitarist for RAMI and Li-sa-X. Hazuki is now also a permanent member of a band KOIAI alongside Li-sa-X. Hazuki started picking up on 7-strings during this period and shortly after felt that she didn't have enough strings taking on her 6-strings guitar!
Mayu Session band performed at live venue and they hits off immediately eventhough its the first time they played together on stage and some members didn't know each other before. They had lots of fun together and thought this is what they are looking for individually - technical superiority asides, a tight band and fun friends. After that one session ended they decided to stay together and make their quintet permanent, which is now known as NEMOPHILA.
In September 2019, she announced in her social media "I became a drummer of NEMOPHILA. Thanking you in advance. I'm glad I met some nice friends and I'll hit them with my soul." ...and she did hit them hard as the band grew tighter every day, in line with the growth of their local and international fan base. In October 2019, Tamu signed another endorsement contract with MEINL cymbals.
SAKI, the composer for Mary's Blood said that she and the composer team write songs for NEMOPHILA and pass the midi to other members for input but Tamu, being the most experienced member of the band write the drums notations by herself.
Entering 2020, NEMOPHILA announced Japan tour schedule for that year but eventually cancelled due to the pandemic. They managed to perform one show in February 2020 at Shibuya REX not featuring all band members because Tamu was on maternity leave. Tamu had always been called up to fill in for drummers' absence but in her absence, NEMOPHILA called-in the legendary drummer Miki 'mittan' Tsunoda of SHOW-YA (one of the best-selling Japanese metal bands in history) who was more than happy to make an appearance that day covering for Tamu.
While in lockdown, mittan also seen paying respect to Tamu during her time-off giving birth. Mittan appeared in NEMOPHILA line ups again supporting them covering two SHOW-YA songs, taking the drummer's place while honouring Tamu by wearing the frog t-shirt which is Tamu's trademark shirt. Another legendary drummer did the same was Kyoko Tomita of Princess Princess (all-female rock band, known for their 7th single 'Diamonds' - first ever single in Japan that hits over millions sales) while NEMOPHILA did their cover song. A respect from legendary Japanese drummers really shows how massive Tamu's reputation is in drummers community.
She played in Roland/BOSS Players Summit 2020 to wrap up Roland's Junior Drums Competition in which she was one of the judges that time.
In 2021, she took part in NAONのYAON as NEMOPHILA drummer. Gacharic Spin also took part in that event but their drummer Yuri was on maternity leave. Levin, the drummer of La'cryma Christi was covering Yuri's place that time but since NAONのYAON is dedicated to only female artists, Levin was not permitted to play. Therefore, Tamu filled in for Yuri and was seen reading the music sheets for the entire performance. That was not the first time Tamu supporting Gacharic Spin. Back in 2018 during Gacharic Spin tour, Tomo-zo (guitar) was hospitalized due to an accident so Hana (drums & vocal that time, now Hana is guitar & vocal) took over Tomo-zo's role and Tamu was called in to cover for Hana's seat. Gacharic Spin could pick any session guitarist to cover for Tomo-zo but it seemed they prefer Tamu to stepped in for Hana who was covering for Tomo-zo. That again shows how reliable Tamu's drumming skills is and how thoughtful she is for answering emergency request in such short notice.
She is a humble and lovely person who always look after the band members as her own little sisters especially her rhythmic partner Haraguchi-san. During an interview after the January 2022 show, Haraguchi-san said she looked up to Tamu as a mother figure, and Tamu amusingly accepted her role being a mother of NEMOPHILA. She is a mother of two daughters and the band members always looking up to her as their senior. Mayu during the announcement of her marriage in live streaming addressed Tamu as Mama Senpai.
For her masterpiece drumming, check out HYPNOSIS, JUSTICE, MONSTERS, 鬼灯 (HOZUKI = DEMON'S LIGHT) and ADABANA.
Muchas gracias por la información amigo, ahora ya se la historia de mi baterista favorita ! Yo la conocí recién el el cover de Nemophila trooper! Y quedé tremenda mente impresionado, embelesado! Nunca había visto una baterista tocar tan bonito y perfecto! Pude ver su maravillosa personalidad de inmediato! Tengo ése don ! Su alegría y sonrisa fue un gran golpe de ánimo para mí! Yo Pasaba por el momento más triste de mi vida y ella me hizo sonreír! Nunca lo olvidaré! Luego me hice su fan incondicional para siempre! Nuevamente gracias desde Buenos Aires
👍
Thanks for the detailed run down. I knew most of it, but it was great to read a complete summary in one comment. I always enjoyed the video of Tamu meeting Maximum the Hormone.
That was a fantastic comment. I hope you don’t mind me taking screen shots of parts I didn’t know. The one thing you didn’t state is her, “pay for channel on FANTS.” While I was a member, she would do a short live stream monthly, with uploads of drum techniques etc…. Unfortunately, it is 95% in Japanese and I’m still learning. I presume this is why she took down many of her UA-cam videos and slowed her UA-cam posts, but they are becoming more active again with Saki’s departure. If you are unfamiliar with the FANTS channel, you can ask her, or I can ask one of the organizers that helped me join. If memory serves me correctly after about a year the subscription was around $12 USD per month after the exchange rate. I need to rejoin. Fabulous drummer.
Sorry for my ignorance. May I ask you a question? On the Black Kuching channel post of, “when Tamu Murata met Maximum the Hormone,” they mention OvDevilz is busy on other projects. I presume they are referring to you, but haven’t ever asked. Is that your channel, or are you an advisor. You certainly have the knowledge. Sorry if this is inappropriate.
@@michelm.6033 by FANTS there, are you referring to Tamu Official Fan Club site that require Japanese telco subscription to join? If its a different one, yes please enlighten me on that.
Yes that video was referring to me (owner) though on the production of BK content, I collaborate with many others including couple of Japanese YT Channels for various collective tasks.. so I guess I am the scriptwriter and editor for BK mainly.
...and I am extremely busy with a start-up project at the moment.
Thanks 🤘🏻
Great reaction. Anyway, can i request your reaction to superb band from japan?
The band is call "Lovebites"
They all The Beautiful Queens Metal band right now in the earth.
They are really really World class musicians. Phenomenal.
And they have a lot die hard fans too.
The song is "Set the world on fire"
Hope you check out, and can enjoy it too. Big thanks🙏
Lovebites have insane drummer too. Her name is haruna.
you need to react to Nakayoshi metal drum playthrough, it's nemophila drummer play the drum..
On the Drummers youtube channel you can watch a drum cam specific view of Nemophila covering The Trooper, seems fitting to suggest. :)
Oh do you ever have to check out a few live performances from Lovebites. Haruna is amazing! Japan has a fantastic metal scene and Lovebites in my favorite of all of them. Thatnk you for this reaction.
Japan have a great jazz scene also!
I concur!!
Since you're doing Nemo, the natural progression is the summit of Japan's Metal mountain - LOVEBITES, and the sensational "Little Big Engine", HARUNA. I suggest "A Frozen Serenade live". 🤘🔥
Haruna the pocket nuke!
Nemophila and Band Maid I feel are the best two current rock bands on the planet. Two different styles but the musicianship for both
bands is off the chart !!!! And world class drumming
Nemophila no entra en la categoría rock! No se pueden comparar, ni con Lovebites tampoco! Nemophila es varios géneros, puede cualquiera y muy bien! Desde thrash metal hasta villancicos navideños! Es alucinante su enorme potencial artístico en conjunto! Es por eso que me cautivo y me tiene atrapado por saber que lanzarán de nuevo! Al género musical que escojan le Irá muy bien! Será una super banda! Band Maid es pop rock y Lovebites power metal, nada más, eso es todo lo que pueden hacer!
As stated, Tamu Murata was one of the most sought out session drummers in Tokyo even before joining Nemophila. She has worked on projects that range from pop, jazz, prog and punk. Tamu has also been a drum instructor, toured Asia performing clinics for her sponsor Tama, and hosted a drumming based program where in one of the episode she has a "drum off" with Senri Kawaguchi, learning Senri's track "Real Life". Tamu also plays classical piano, bass, guitar and sax and she cites Dave Lombardo, Mike Portnoy, Charlie Benante and Nao Kawakita of Maximum The Hormone as metal drummers she admires. Tamu Murata is wonderful talent with a beautiful spirit.
Now you need to watch Lovebites holy war live. Keep up the good work. Greetings from Romania 🇷🇴
I was at this show...just a legendary show beginning to end. Love Nemophila.
Awesome!
Excellent! This song was the first I heard from Nemophila a while back & I literally said “WTF” was that. Been blow away ever since but like that dude said & what I say to people when I tell them to check this out “BEST” song ending ever!💪🏼🍺🤘🏼
GREAT ENDING
She also sings, plays piano, saxophone and guitar.
Better option woulda been Zen live. Band-Maid Hate Live...Akane is going ham. You won't see her...you'll see why...but you'll definitely hear her
I'll get to it!
@AndrewRooneyDrums ooo...sorry 😊. Guess you've had a number of requests for the same. Yea, personally I think Zen live would be a better intro to Nemophila and Tamu. Band-Maid Hate Live is is practically an eargasm. Amazing just how many phenomenal female drummer there are in Japan. Senri, Akane, Tamu, not to mention Chika from Hanabie. Nao from Maximum the Hormone. Haruna from Lovebites. Yuri and Hana from Gacharic Spin. Appreciate you given them space and airtime. Much appreciated 🤘
If you're a fan of:
1.) Iron Maiden
2.) Complex Skllful Drumming (fills and cymbal work)
3.) Japanese, all girl heavy metal bands
Then you need to check out LOVEBITES, one of the most musically talented metal bands on the planet. I put them in the top three, alongside Dream Theater and Symphony-X. Here's two recent live performances from them that showcases their talent:
"Hammer of Wrath" ua-cam.com/video/pHrWRT0Jeac/v-deo.html
"We The United" ua-cam.com/video/UnNxvgLI_Rg/v-deo.html
Thanks Andrew, you and your fans have brought me a lot of great music I've never heard of before! Japan has brought us several great female drummers in recent years. My personal favorite, MiMi, is currently on tour in Australia with her funk band Tokyo Groove Jyoshi, with shows in Melbourne and Sydney remaining. Not sure if this is your gig or something for the show but something to check out, maybe? Greeting from Norway.
Saki :(
Yep...still working through my acceptance of that man...
It was through Tamu that I fell in love with Nemophila. I still remember how surprised I was when I saw her behind the drums in the music video for REVIVE. I had listened to her before but never thought about the drummer. Another thing is that even though I liked Tamu as a drummer for a long time, I didn't know she was in a band... 😁
TBH, the ending is better in the original MV rather than live. The studio ending is perfection - SO heavy.
I prefer the live versions for the scream. The studio version barely has a scream at all. I think he should’ve done the most recent live video though, better sound quality and Mayu’s voice is better
@@matthewhall8939 I prefer the live versions of all their songs, including this one - except for that ending. The MV with the strobe FX and the clean, clear mix of that ending part, for me, shows the contrast and dynamics better than any live. It would be almost impossible to reproduce that as cleanly live.
Live is always best, IMO, but that moment in the MV is a one-off special case to me.
They kick ass!!! 😳
They are easy on the eyes too!! 😅😊
great reaction you have a lot video of Nzmophila with focus on drum
For more flavor, check the MV for Nemophila’s Adabana ua-cam.com/video/AxYiOwsu6wU/v-deo.htmlsi=E-zy0a_pGCvh9pZ-

The EP also has a cool cover of Lupin the Third theme song. Don’t know how much she played on it, but think it included piano, sax, & marimba?/vibes?/xylophone? She’s done Lupin live on the sax, and played keys in UA-cam covers. Also, she has drum covers of Dream Theater & such on her channel (with drum cams). There’s fun videos of her and Senri Kawaguchi checking out each other’s kits and jamming together (from a tv show? think it’s on her channel now.) Also plays DT and others with a group led by Daisuke Kurosawa, search his channel
Yes, Murata Ai’s stage name is MurataTamu, not only Tom’s, but sometimes Mu RA-ta-ta-ta-Tamu
Pretty sure they use a click, certainly use backing tracks on some other songs
Ha, what kind of crowd would I get if I went across the ocean? Nemophila was created during Covid and yet already playing Internationally by 2022. Despite just losing their most famous member 3/2024 (after recording a Budokan show), they’re only going up 🤘🎸💃😎
Nemophila is my favorite band right now. We just lost Saki but still have Tamu, Mayu, Hazuki and Haraguchi-san!
BTW...I think 'Andrew' was referring to the ending on the following version of Raitei. It's newer, better production and ending in my opinion. And great reaction to Nemophila!

Gutted Saki is gone.
I really like her drum playthroughs with Nakayoshi Metal. She also covered an easy song called ”The Dance of Eternity” when she was younger.
Tamu is one of the best drummers out of Japan PERIOD! Nemophila as a band is one of the best out of japan. Great drummer great band. You want to hear more of this great band with her great drumming try Adabana, Oiran Live and Hypnosis. Many more amazing songs they have also have done some amazing covers. I see you have a Iron Maiden shirt on. Nemophila has done covers of The Trooper and Aces High. Damn good covers too. Tamu has her own channer too where she has camera views of her doing Nemophilas songs too.
Yo agregaría que también tiene la mejor cantante Mayu! Completo ahora si.
@@panterarufo9734 YES! you are correct. Mayu is the best lead singer. She is amazing and honestly Nemophila would not exist without her.
NEMOPHILA are one of the best Metal bands I’ve ever heard, and certainly among the best Metal bands from Japan. I was at that show in LA, their first, but not only, visit to the U.S.! (If you are not familiar with the storied Whisky A-Go-Go, hit up Wikipedia) MURATA TAMU is a fantastic, powerful Metal drummer, veteran musician, mother of two and still has a baby face.
RAITE is pronounced “rai-te” (rhymes with “I may”). I second the motion that you check out the OMV as well, just to hear the outro.
The next best thing to a MURATA TAMU drum cam is this video (which includes a pedal cam) recorded in their studio with the demo of OIRAN, their current show closer - ua-cam.com/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/v-deo.html
For more impressive TAMU drumming, check out their OMV for ADABANA.
Nemophila's Tamu Murata is a drum goddess. Please check out her drum playthrough of Inspion. You will be mindblown by her drum skills
Check it out here - ua-cam.com/video/MsX_10A-Lso/v-deo.htmlsi=LfPfs0LCP2qWzSGW
or this drum playthrough of Nemophila's "Life" (a day after they announced that their guitarist Saki is leaving the band for good) -
ua-cam.com/video/ToFRkYsDbYU/v-deo.htmlsi=2u9m2guCk5IrlhLz
Some years ago I was looking at Tamu's UA-cam videos. She was young then. Had a fantastic smile. And had a great feet work. Of course, also good hand work. But feet is her super power. Eventually I started to look at Babymetal and other (more or less) female Japanese bands. Also other female Japanese drummers, such as Senri and Yoyoka and Kanade and Junna. Then I found out about Nemophila ... that had Tamu as a drummer. It was early, and they had almost only Dissention and Revive as original songs. But, they had a load of covers. And I listened to them all. The covers they had made for fun. And, for some reason, they made good videos of them. Nemophila has never been a cover band on stage. Anyhow, as Tamu is a professional session drummer she do never exaggerate her drumming in Nemophila. She plays what the song needs. So, if you want to see crazy stuff, you have to look at Tamu's own videos. And she do have crazy stuff. She is originally a progressive jazz drummer.
Of course, Raitei has heavy drums, and then she plays heavy drums. She also tends to play more heavy live. Or maybe it is only the mix?
The good old classic days.If only they stayed tht way n maybe SAKI would still b around fer keeps.
Is this a different line up?
@@AndrewRooneyDrums Same,just tht in recent times they r selling out 2 commercialism in comparison n Saki the 1st lead ax slinger threw in the towel like last week.
There's a cover of "Megitsune" with a drum-focused version, with foot cam. ua-cam.com/video/OdaBUHcKNFg/v-deo.html It was the very first Nemophila video I saw and I immediately fell in love with Tamu. Thanks for the reaction!
TAMU IS A SUPER DRUMMER.....I LOVE THIIS BAND
I dig it
Gracias por reaccionar y tus lindos comentarios ha Nemophila,mi favorita de Japón ! Aunque estoy muy triste por Saki, ka función debe continuar!
😂👍saludos desde Buenos Aires!
Hola! Muchas gracias por commentar
Tamu and Senri ... ua-cam.com/video/ViyZ49RsNfk/v-deo.htmlsi=VBtffwxcKjIxzDAv
Hi Irholland! I attached the same link! That's the vid that got me into Tamu in the first place! In December of 2017!
Should definitely do a reaction to Babymetal. Babymetal Death is the latest live video they've put up and it's some next level business.
There are a several drum-cam videos on Murata Tamu's page. A good studio-live song is Fighter - ua-cam.com/video/TkCbLyvpt4s/v-deo.html
Tamu is the daughter of Yoshiki (x Japan) and Nao-san (maximum the hormonal), I have no proof, but I also have no doubts, xD. Are you serious about TAMU-DRUMCAM'S? Their channel is full.
She isn't their daughter, but she is a huge fan. And Nao-san is also a fan of her. Tamu won a contest and got to play with MTH. There's a video floating around of Tamu getting all giddy when meeting her idol for the first time.
@@Ucalegon_ If weon we all know it, why so literal. arrrrrrrggggggggggggg,que gente mas molesta creyendo que saben todo.
Cute! Check out Rock Translation and OvD. (Black Kucing)
End if the song made me think of the end of another song " use my third arm " by pantera. Vinnie Paul would be proud!
Tamu is awesome, been following her for several years, from prior to Nemophila forming. She's also a super-mom with two kids. I saw Nemo in Dallas last year and just went to Tokyo to see their big show at the Budokan. One of my favorite performances from Tamu is this X-Japan cover ua-cam.com/video/Bd3Ss30FZjg/v-deo.htmlsi=XZDx7mTB9KKD_lpM. She is just blasted afterwards.
Tuve que ver tres veces el video para poder terminar de leer los extensos y hermosos comentarios de los fans de Tamu! Mi favorita de esta hermosa banda ! Tres veces, me agrado!❤
SO many old white dudes in that crowd. lol Monster stuff though. I wonder who's in charge of their wardrobe or if they do their own modifications?
Old white dudes are the old time rock and metal fans who have been starved of new and good bangin' rock and metal till we found these wonderful Japanese artists. And it is mostly the all woman bands leading the charge with over the top songs and skills. Like a tall cold drink after coming in from the desert.
So here we are. Rock on.
Sugoi! May have been mentioned, but both Tamu and Mayu (lead singer) are mom's! More NEMOPHILA, please!
Arigatou! 🤘🤘
She sounds amazing! A drum cam would have been better but that was pretty impressive.
Please do more NEMOPHILA. One of the guitarists (Saki) has unfortunately just left the band we don't know if she will be replaced or if the rest of the band will continue as a 4 piece. Try their song AMA-TE-RAS. Zen is their heaviest song and Tamu is basically just smashing the drums you might not like it. Rise is another song that you might like. Tamu has 2 young children and Mayu (the singer) has one small child..doesn't slow them down at all.
Take your pick, among many others.... This is a drum "battle" between two of the smilin'ist drummers on the planet. Live with 2 full kits on stage. たむ図鑑3-6 ドラムバトル！～Real Life～（ゲスト：川口千里様）(Translation: Murata Tamu Picture Book 3-6 Drum Battle! ~Real Life~ (Guest: Chisato (Senri) Kawaguchi) ua-cam.com/video/ViyZ49RsNfk/v-deo.html. - OR - YOYOKA and TAMU, drum (virtual) duo, at the same time they were judging drummers at the Summit referenced in title. Start at 42:48. Put auto translate on. Starts with 30 second intro explaining that the two of them were judging the summit drummers. " Roland /BOSS Players Summit Vドラマージュニア ダイジェスト " ua-cam.com/video/IfSaS5ztBbo/v-deo.html Followed by their duo. - OR - If you want a very unique song, like nothing you've ever heard before, that everyone went nuts over, try their newly released " NEMOPHILA / AMA-TE-RAS [Official Live Video] " ua-cam.com/video/96LQimRqJgM/v-deo.html There are at least 4 "shocking/surprising" moments thqt will blow you away. This song really highlights Mayu's vocals, my favorite Japanese vocalist. Sadly, a couple of weeks ago, Saki, their lead guitarist decided to go her separate way to become a solo artist. No hard feelings, but all are very sad.
