Drummer reacts to SENRI KAWAGUCHI Crazy Fusion Drum Solo (Wupatki) 

She's one of the top drummers in the world.

There are good drummers. There are geniuses. And there is Senri K. who came from the future from another planet.

Man, she is one SMOKIN drummer! Absolutely incredible playing. I’m talking mind blowing. And that kit sounds so damn good! My god man. She is just amazing.

Started at age 5. Dvd at age 12. Japan live jazz record of the year at age 18.

Senri is astonishingly great but who ever mic'd up that drum kit and mixed it needs to have a shout out! The kick and the toms...superlative! And Senri's choice of cymbals... The best I've ever heard.

And "Kanade Sato" too,U must watch.

I keep finding myself watching her videos. Has definitely become my favorite drummer. Such precision and energy! She is amazing!

If you're good at jazz fusion - you'll be good at anything. Senri is good at anything.

Her playing brings me to tears - its beautiful!

She is awesome. I've been playing the drums for 45 years and I don't know if this inspires me to try harder or to quit. Anyway, thanks for sharing. if you haven't seen Junna do the drum cover for "Through Fire and Flames" from Dragon Force, you should check it out. I've never seen anyone have so much fun playing the drums.

Yoyoka is amazing. Junna is frightening. Bit Senri is incredibly sophisticated, far beyond her years, and she plays very musically.

she lays a serious beating on that kit! what a killer drummer!!!

Each of Senri's limbs has a brain of it's own. 👑 手数姫 Princess of Many Strokes 👑

If you have not seen Yoyoka, a 12 years old Japanese phenom, you will not be disappointed when you see her playing drum.

And all this incredible playing with such grace that she looks like she could hit all day and not break a sweat!

I totally agree Steve this drummer is awesome. The drum sticks are an extension of her arms, this drummer is from another plant. I’ve watched Senri before and she’s always SUPER impressive on a drum kit.🥁👏

Senri is one of the most tasteful drummers going around. Many testosterone filled male drummers tend to try and show off too much and their playing sounds more like a technical exercise rather than music. If you watch any of her videos her playing fits the music perfectly.

Senri is the best. Thanks for checking her out.

As soon as you said you never heard of her I instant knew you'd be amazed

Senri has a quite catalogue for you to watch. Some of the clips where she is playing in bands & combos are really sensational. Enjoy.

Watching again. She plays many genres. probably not much she cannot play. Love her smile when she really gets it happening.

I don't know why, but that drum kit sounds awesome. In particular, the toms are so deep and smooth sounding.

Senri has given us thousands of great videos with all kinds of bands, music, solos and players. I think she's done more at her age than any other drummer. When she's in a band, she's always showcased with plenty of solos. I want (and glad to see) her zero in more on her own soulfulness and originality. And also drop some albums based on that, then hit a few year-long world tours so more people (outside of Japan), can go see her live. I would hope she could write or co-write some new music within the hard rock / jazz fusion / prog-techno-whatever genres and mostly avoid copy tunes. Senri should be more of an international sensation, not only a Japanese-centric performer. Senri has been one of the top drummers in the world since about the age of 12. She’s 25 now. All the top players want time with her and has recorded with many of the greats. She has a number of excellent jazz fusion albums and is always in 4 or 5 groups at a time. She even plays great hard rock prog fusion as well as straight on jazz. She did a lot of this while she attending college, too!! I've been following Senri Kawaguchi for more than a decade and consider her to be one of the best drummers in the world, Band-Maid the best Hard Rock band, The Warning to be the best original rock band, Hiromi Uehara the best jazz fusion pianist, Yuja Wang the best classical pianist, and Tatiana from Jinjer the best Metal vocalist -- amazingly, all women!

She’s an excellent jazz drummer that’s for sure

I've been watching her for years, and have really enjoyed her progressing to a world class percussionist. She is definitely on her game.

Senri is also known as the Princess of many strokes. Badassery to the max.

ya that's just about the best tuned kit i've ever heard. phenomenal.

There are lots of very,very good drummers in this world and she and Kanade Sato are right up there . Neither of them bash the kit like so many female drummers. They are true artists.

Senri is one of world class drummer!

Senri! One of my favorite Japanese Jazz Fusion drummers, next to Akira Jimbo, whom is awesome too.

That warped splash cymbal is a Zildjian Trashformer, and it actually comes like that brand new! She has been using the series for a long time now.

Yoyoka is one of the best up and coming drummers of our time. At the age of 12, she has performed her own drum composition called "Sparkling", I believe you'll be pleased to listen to it.

Those chops but with the power and confidence of a 4 on the floor rock drummer, awesome.

Been watching this young girl for years / young lady now ! so impressed by her playing ! she`s plays so clean ! # 1 she she love`s it , and it show`s !!! so very impressive...😊

For me, as a drummer, and in a learning process as well, ther`s no doubt, Senri is today`s top female drummer in the world. Lots of dynamics, chops, sense of timing with hi hat work, and a very powerful sound around toms and snare combinations. I love absolutely her approach, and the perfect balance with the music.

When people asked me who's your role model, I always answer Senri Kawaguchi☺️☺️

Pure perfection!

Senri is one of the best in the drum world to date

Drummers understand, more than anyone.... the greatness that is Senri's (pronounced CINDY)....... technique and talent.

This was fun to watch. Amazing skills and feels. I love watching drummers, so of course I have watched Tony Royster Jr. If you havent seen that old clip of him when he was 12 years old (which I suspect you have:), then do it. That little guy gets my head spinning. Thanks! Have a great week :)

Check out Senri Kawaguchi 'Blowin Luv' - it's 13 mins long but if you pick it up about 3 mins 30 in - it is truly utterly astonishing. At one point her right arm disappears she's moving faster than the video frame rate!

yea, Senri always has great toms (5) and is the only drummer i ever saw who plays with 2 snares. Those are her signature sticks

That girl is amazing.

Nice flammage all through!

geez. that was killer. that kit sounded "delicious" a lot of fusion drums, its feels like the kicks can get lost or blur with the rest of what going on, but hers is a clear cannon of awesomeness. thanks for sharing. she's new to me. pardon me, ill be in a rabbit hole for the foreseeable future.

Excellent critique. Awesome (I need a bigger word here) drumming.

Jesus Christ what do they feed them in Asia???!!! First Junna, now Senri, who's next? She's brilliant!!!

Such a technician

Her nickname is The Smiling Assassin because when she finishes a complex bar she smiles. A shorter video of hers is called Zildian Factory Tour and it’s insane! Japan has an amazing music scene. Many of the bass players use 5 or 6 string basses. As far as other Japanese drummers, Kanade Sato and Akira Jimbo. Fumiya, who is in Unlucky Morpheus a speed metal band, I believe was born in the Philippines and he’s been in other metal bands. South America has some incredible drummers like Aquiles Priester and Keiko Freitas.

This chick is from another planet.

Damn , That Little Girl Is Awesome ❤️ She Could Be The Next Neil Peart ❤️

Ооо, сколько мысли у этой девочки!)

Steve, to me Senri is the most mesmerizing and enjoyable drummer to watch in this world. check out the 16th Tokyo Jazz Festival . See if you would agree with me? Enjoy. also check out Kanade Sato

It's the Ghost notes for me!

Senri. The best female drummer in the world. So it's not surprising that Yamaha provide the best drum technicians that they have available. Check out Senri's version of Statos.

Amazing Drumming. nice ....Best fro Noway

Great drum work! Does anyone know who played bass in this track? Great job there as well.

"Status quo" drummers will be of business soon, with all these japonese girls and others, growing like mushrooms kkkk

Have you listened to Kanade Sato, another Japanese female drummer?

I love Senri! Also check out Greyson Nekrutman

don't know anything about drums but ... fly eagles fly baby... 😁😍

Bro After your reaction is drummer Sandri Kawaguchi from Japan, I want to recommend you one of the best drummers in Indonesia... he's named Ray Prasetya...with the title "Ray Prasetya & SABIAN Cymbal Headline" Awesome...I hope you like it.

I recommend the drummer junna

In the description you refer to her as them. She's a single person, not multiple people.

I'm not a fan of tiny sounding kick drums, but that snare is a MONSTER!

Never heard of Senri? Never heard of Junna? You are out of it. Yoyoka? Yoyoka Soma Kanade Sato Tarn Softwhip That is a start,

Mini Simon Philips

check out another japanese drummer...kanade sato...

YOYOKA DRUMMY

Request: Alexisonfire - Sweet Dreams of Otherness, ahead of their first album in 13 years

React VOICE OF BACEPROT bro please!! good talent bro

How the hell are a drummer and not heard of senri???

Slightly different genre, but I think Senri's best performance is this song ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AQL3EI-FMck.html

Betting she has, like us , never heard of you.

How should we trust a drummer who has never heard of Senri Kawaguchi before?

Dude, make your pic frame small, enlarge the featured musician, duhhh!

Im sorry man. But im abit offended. This is posted 21 hours ago... And if you haven't even heard senri (you being a musician your self) which already a kid drummer phenomenon from years agoooo, then this probably just some random guy with lots of spare time and idk wtf this vids pop up in my device. Crazy youtube algorithm! (🖕 The flip is for whoever against me eheh)

Yoyoka is better and she's only 12. One of the best in the world

I’d love to hear her play Thrash Metal ! Who knows what her talent level is or what she can play .
