I saw her at a small jazz club in Tokyo two years ago. I was sitting less than 20 feet from her. I can attest that she is not that fast.....she's faster.
Her footwork is warp speed, at times, and she does really well for having only eight working limbs, seemingly. :-/ :-) OK, went to your site, often meh when I follow a recommendation like that, and what do I find, a COMMERCIAL (MOV mics)...and it is GENIUS! I had to wipe tears from my eyes. You have a new subscriber, my 'friend' (your call), and I've only watched that one video so far. Can't wait to explore the others. Toilet seat percussion...and it worked. Love finding new good content providers. Guessing any Daniel Thrasher type fan with hit with your content, given my exposure so far. BTW, that makes HIS comment worth about a million times what MINE was. LOL
My first time watching and hearing Senri play. Just WOW! Blown away by her phenomenal skill and impeccable timing. Her kit set up is killer and the sound it produces is one of the best I’ve heard! 👊🇨🇦
You have just finished a nice drum practice session, which you think wasn't too bad and while you feel good about yourself, you sit down and watch this clip of this amazing drummer! Mixed feelings flood your mind! On the one hand, you immediately lose the rush of excitement of your own successful(?) performance, you feel mesmerized as if you know nothing about playing the drums after all! And thinking that you've been playing for longer than she's been alive, doesn't help things much! On the other hand though, you can't help but feel another kind of excitement. The one that comes with recognizing an incredibly talented individual, a skilled performer with an amazing technique, astonishingly powerful sound, fast yet masterfully clean strokes and an engaging groove that you simply can't shake off your mind once this is over! You have just witnessed greatness!
There are a bunch of drummers (males and females) that are on youtube with millions of viewers and followers...and nobody of them have 1/10 of the talent of this young Japonese... She is just a drum genius...nothing less!
Came here after finding out she has done many of the drums for Zombieland Saga and even mo-capped for it and wow I am so happy to have found these vids! Absolutely stunning performance!
What I really find addictive about listening to her work is that she moves all around the drum kit, not just for flashy effect but in a manner that is musically pleasing and interesting. Constantly changing things up, again, not just to change them up but to produce moods, dynamic modulation, etc. Very thoughtful, ACCURATE, and dynamic performances, to my ear. One of those standouts in a sea largely of same ole same ole, again, just my opinion and tastes. Arguments welcome, but not encouraged. :-) I do hear a lot of Weckl inspiration and even phrasing and instrumentation choices in her playing, and that is definitely a good thing, as he is another favorite. I wasn't aware that he drummed for Corea (RIP, BIG loss) who I have listened to extensively for MANY years, about fifty, but when I heard him later drumming with other instrumentalists my first reaction is 'I KNOW that drumming'. Those, as I say, are personal standouts. I could easily pick 100 drummers at random out there and probably not audibly recognize more than a few, but then I'm not a drummer, so not a terrifically 'talented' ear in that respect. Just sayin'. The piece I heard later was the Weckl / Oliver / session guys (I think) take on "Higher Ground"... SPECTACULAR, BTW, highly recommended, one of my favorite covers. Energy and talent through the roof, JIC you are interested I'll save you the search: ua-cam.com/video/4RS5RsSPssw/v-deo.html
Damn. She has some ooomph behind her tom fills. Her artistic decisions were so enjoyable to hear. Glad she is using a snare for more than just 2&4. Bright future ahead!
Wow! I'm speechless. I'm glad that there's still good fusion music being made and young musicians that are learning about it. Also, heretas for days! :-D
Senri never ceases to amaze me with her power, dynamics, and incredible hands. She plays the cleanest 6-stroke roll I have ever seen.
Her power is just right, any harder and it works against you.
Unbelievable skill and musicality. The best drummer out there today.
She is one of my favorite drummers i admire her!
Through the whole song she is hitting the snare and Toms right in the middle. So precise. Amazing well optimized movements.
Senri Kawaguchi being Senri Kawaguchi. Beast!
Wow! Those are some chops. Very nicely done. She has got to be one of the best fusion drummers.
Hey I have that same cowbell (jam block). And that’s where the similarities end unfortunately
don't forget the dress
That's a bad lady there!! Love it!!!!!!!!!!!
Had to check I wasn't at 1.5x playback speed...
Yooo
Pat Flanigan
Your videos are dope keep up the great work
Crazy right?!

This lady is absolutely mind blowing incredible! Otherworldly!....Bravo....
Without the video I would have thought I was hearing two really good drummers playing together.
Wow....fills my heart knowing the future of music is safe.
... can't wait to see more of her
This young lady is incredible I enjoy her playing so much. Unreal chops and dynamics.
This sweet kid is a MONSTER ...drummer. I had goosebumps all the way through.

"masterfully clean" - u said it!
Wow..amazing..so crisp, clean..she has her own sound.
Oh man...That was unreal!
Been a fan of her’s for a while now and can say, she never ceases to amaze.
She's simply the G.O.A.T!
It's frightening how much power she can generate with her frame!
Don't be scared, that is all good technique and what it can do. Power on drums comes from technique not size or strength.
besides she got respectable arms honestly
There's a Drumeo video where she explains how she does it.... Along with practicing a lot, of course.
She holds her sticks wayyy back at the ends almost for one thing
What? Her tiny female Asian frame?
Her cymbals sound impeccable.
Ya,t they really are! She has an excellent musical ear and her ability to choose cymbals is a result of that.
This young lady is so precise and so artistic in her style. Obviously works hard at her craft. She has an amazing future ahead of her.
Well done.
In a word: AMAZING
But other positive adjectives come to mind as well. Super talented, musical, exciting!!
Senri's fusion style and different techniques she does are so nice to watch.... Great video.!
Holy crap! And here I was thinking Jazz Fusion was dead! This is as good as it gets! 👏
That thing when she alternates right hand between ride and hi-hat looks awesome!
My favorite drummer today, period!!
Watching this made me immediately want to practice...
It's awesome that this performance had this effect on you :D
me too!
That’s good!
Why? 😂😂😂

Not genius...just hard work.
@@maxdominate2481 hard work does nothing if the genius isn’t there as well.

She has such effortless power!
Love Senri and her professional world class mad drumming skills. And I love her band The Jazz Avengers too.
Absolutely killer playing. And the drumset sounds meaty af, kudos to the sound mixer.
Senri is a perfectionist in every aspect. She sets up her own drums, tunes them, and she mics them, too.
Damn. She has some ooomph behind her tom fills. Her artistic decisions were so enjoyable to hear. Glad she is using a snare for more than just 2&4. Bright future ahead!
A bunch of odd time signatures, she is amazing, what an inspiration
Oh my god!!!
These headphones just sucked the air out of my head!!!!
Excellent!!!!
It’s great to to see that the future of fusion is in good hands!
Absolutely amazing playing and WOW ! That kit just sounds amazing, especially the floor toms ❤
Drumming at its very best. She's mesmerising 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Even when she got slightly hung up under the ride cymbal, it still sounded flawless!
AMAZING MIRACLE
brb gotta go melt my splash cymbal
hold on!
omg this kit is sounding AMAZING
Yeah, I've watched only 2 of her videos and she is awesome!
I read somewhere she belongs to the 500 best drummers in the world. Whats that? Nothing! For me she belongs to the 5 best drummers ever seen.
Wow! I'm speechless. I'm glad that there's still good fusion music being made and young musicians that are learning about it.
Also, heretas for days! :-D
Yes! Senri! Such fluidity in that last fill, wow!
18 people and counting are mad she’s better than they’ll ever be.
Incredible!
演者の良さをダイレクトに伝えてくれる音響機材の良さよ。
That was insane! So much talent and power.
Those toms are so amazing...
Wooohooo, that was some wild ride!!! 👍
Gyah DAMN! she killed that shit!
Mind bending and entertaining at the same time.
I haven't played drums in ages and this just makes me want to go out and buy a kit.
i love the sound of that kit!!
That classic fusion sound. Tight snare with some ring, punchy kick, and super dry toms.
Those floor toms sound like thunder.
Amazing! 🤩 The Kit Sounds Great!
Absolutely Amazing! Her timing is better than digital.
Very clear and very hard hit..i was very confidence that ahe can handle even a huge rock band battle..i will bet even my last coin for her🥰🥰🥰
these toms sound so good
Great job, unbelievable talent. Keep sharing your gift.
That snare bloody hell.so good
Fantastic performance
So wonderful.
Love it!
That was insane
@@LAH-oq7vx I am laughing so hard hahahaha 😐 you called him a simp bro that is so funny are you a comedian? 😐
Love the way she stabs the cymbals and the skins. Great punctuation. Teaching the drums who's the boss.
Her power is just right, not too hard, not too light but just in the sweet spot.
Time flies... I feel like I haven't grown much at all since last time I check on your video :S
Sweet jebus the TONE! So good.
such an interesting composition.takes you away
Phenomenonal as ever
Ok
Samurai spirit🙌🙌🙌She's incredible!!!
bro still amazes me in her skill
Wow. She’s amazing! Very impressive
Amazing, I didn't want it to end!
Talent perfected!
Nice to see someone crush it without resorting to crazy odd time signatures and "look how fast I am" rudiments all over the kit. Incredible.
Very good! Congratulations! Thank you!
EXCELLENT as always!
Muy excelente héroes sentí kawagushi te admiro mucho desde Perú un amigo que te aprecia
She's amazing and accurate. She reminds me of *Dave Weckl from Chick Corea Electric Band.*
Good observation -- Weckl is one of her drum heroes: facebook.com/photo?fbid=1293773410676587
Simply amazing! Such a great drummer
Pure 100% talent 🔥
With just an unbelievable amount of hard work behind it as well.
Go Senri!!! Here Brazil.
Man i cant imagine the control it takes to play precisely at that speed while gripping the end of the stick
A YOUNG MASTER ON THE KIT!!
