    Senri’s the Roger Federer of the drums. The artistry, the grace. And all that effortless power. Not from being beefy and ‘hitting hard’ but from perfect timing and god given wrists.

      Yeah, her playing is so clean and relaxed. I kept checking to see if she would muff one of those repeating 6-note patterns on the ride. Nope.

I absolutely agree the women you mentioned play with a lot of heart and are probably better technically speaking(Senri Kawaguchi for sure). My point was that Junna puts on a hell of a show while playing and that the energy she puts out is infectious. Another to check out is Akane Hirose from Band Maid. Shes incredible also while putting on a show. If you decide to check her out I recommend "freedom" live version. She has a solo in it.

    I'm serious when I say this girl could be as good as Buddy Rich if she continues her progression. Senri is outrageously talented, without doubt the best female drummer in the world and still in her 20's the potential to be one of the greatest dummers of all time male or female.

      umm almost ever deathcore an even blackmetal drummer made old people music show they barely could play. its called progression. elvis presley was "the king" but a 2 year old these days can play circles around his guitar playing.
      but if u wanna get deeper. there are 100s of clones of every human an we live in a fake world. so can any of them play without the computer making them?
