Former Kid Drummer REACTS to 17yo Kanade Sato 'Festival De Ritmo' LIVE Drums | Dave Weckl 

POUND LIKE for prog dance music!

Senri and Kanade....my favorite drummers 🥁 Thanks for the reaction. 🤘😷👍

Such a great technical player. She has the ability to be precise while staying relaxed and without sounding sterile. All of that and feeling too, she's pretty darn groovy.

What i love most about Kanade is her fine technique and she looks as relaxed as you can be, as if this was NOTHING (and it's DAVE WECKL!!!) Especially the Ride work is exceptionel...

I was waiting for you to get to this drummer. Didn't want to add to the pressure that everyone was already giving you :p Ah! Finally, Kanade Sato!!

Kanade is brilliant, in the same league as Senri, but with a different taste.❤💙❤

As someone we go goes through occasional jazz binges (Chick Corea and Thelonious Monk most recently) have to say this was outstanding, mesmerizing...

Call it Samba Jazz. My favourite performance by this supremely cool princess. Kanade's music urges you to hope, and believe, that life can indeed be beautiful. Love her. 👍💋

She is a wonderful talent, like Senri, so good, but to remain mostly unknown because of the genre they prefer to play.

She sounds just like Dave! She nailed the fills as this sounds familiar to me when I was working at NASA in early 2000's on a Dave Weckl CD I had.

Genius young lady! Hard to wrap my head around it!

Kanade does these 'covers' REALLY well, and she made her first album this same year (2017) with Rei Narita (piano) and 'Ear Candy Jazz Factory' (ICYMI)

Great Job, as always! I always love your excitement and appreciation of other awesome drummers.

She made an album with a trio called Ear Candy Jazz Factory. Worth a listen for anyone who likes her playing.

Enjoyable very enjoyable. You always enhance my appreciation for these performances. Well done!

Watch her left hand at 5:58. It's on the snare and then it so casually strikes the floor tom, then back to the snare. She plays so relaxed, something you notice in all of her videos.

Her and Senri are the top female drummers in the world I would say. Kanade rocks!!!!

Nice reaction and thanks for doing Kanade, the talented female drummers for Japan area breathe of fresh air. BTW, there should be a new Yoyoka cover coming out soon, so brush up on your 60's psychedelic rock legends.

Dude, that was insane. Another rabbit hole. Damn, where have we been?

She's also incredible, along with Senri, Yoyoka, Junna and others. This Jazz fusion stuff is complex, fun, and smooth, but you deserve a nice straight forward rock cover... like Yoyoka's Smells Like Teen Spirit :)

Knowing music about as well as I skydive from the moon, but greatly appreciating it (and learning bits, and bits more all the time), I love listening to knowledgeable people explain it. I like your style of reacting. Good attitude.

So ! Cool

Listen to her at 11 years old on "Drops" (live version).

Nice Reaction. She is my best favorite drummer. Her Rhythm is very accurate！　 Could I have the reaction of this video either? 「 Spur Of The Moment - Dave Weckl (Cover)」(kanade satou 13 years old)

One of my favorite drummers. Up there with Senri. (YOYOKA is in a class of her own.) I love how Kanade looks like she could be riding a bicycle. No stress. No gimmicky stick tricks. No over-the-top gyrations. Just great playing.

More of kanade plssss

Would love to see Senri and Kanade doing a drum duo (not a battle) or improv! How awesome would that be! Or a trio including Yoyoka. Senri and Yoyoka have hung out before.

Btw, have you seen Larnell Lewis’ vid by Drumeo (I believe) where he heard the song once and he played it perfectly? This just reminded me of that and the music. You might just be blown away by the genius of that guy. Worth reacting to and he also just did a Metallica cover he never heard before. I think his version is better than Lars. Lol

kamade-chan kawaii😂👍💕✨

Wawwwww Kanade

She's an awsome young jazz drummer I've seen this preformance its good but not my cup of tea prefer rock drummers. You did a great job on the commentary thanks Wave.👍

Kanade seems to play mostly jazz fusion but she is versatile. Here’s a cover of a Toto song (Girl Goodbye) she performs with Japanese guitar prodigy Makoto Irie. She even cracks a smile at one point. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qFUyLfBbCMI.html

Kanade Sato is awesome and has dozens of videos. You should check them out.

Jazz aint my thing but I recognize she is masterful at playing it. I wonder if she plays other genres of music?

She is a prodigy

How about you make a video of you dancing to this and WE will do a react to it in the comments...lol

Hit like an amazing girl

Check Muses for more Kanade. Rie aka Suzaku and three female musicians.... Samba makes you want to move.

I would have loved to hear her play with Chick Corea, it would have been incredible. This is Drops which her father composed the backing track and she use to win the “Hit Like a Girl Competition at 12. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XYpFL08m5fQ.html

Good reaction Wave. Senri and Kanade (and now Tamu as well) made me appreciate the progressive jazz fusion genre and it’s intricacies more. (I listen to or more familiar with the Dave Brubeck/classical jazz) .... These ladies are well trained. But in my opinion, Kanade isn’t as passionately revered as Senri and Yoyoka coz of her lack of ‘feel’ (at least not conveyed very well). She might be a more technically sound drummer compared to the two but what the two got she doesn’t have. Just MHO.

there's a younger drummer that does a good job on this song named Samuel Danu. check him out

💖💕 Ƙɑղɑժҽ ✌️😁👍

rie a.k.a. suzaku /seaside avenue

It's FUSION ! not Prog. Check out the original Weckl track .

I can't believe the elementary "analysis" ....the so weak comments made about Sato's performing ......literally as if he has no idea what she is doing. This is a talented AND experienced natural drummer ....who has learnt this chart ....and playing to it to fully complement the piece AND the other performers. This kind of drummer will NEVER play this piece the same way two times. I don't know what a Wave Potter is ......but publishing this video should be truly considered embarrassing. THIS IS A STRAIGHT BEAT. SHE KNOWS THE BASS LINE, SHE KNOWS THE ACCOMPANIMENT VARIATIONS, AND SHE KNOWS WHO HAS, AND WHERE IS THE ACTIVE MELODIC LINES........AND SHE IS PLAYING WITH AND ENHANCING ALL!!! ........but this narrator can only think about "counting" .....something drummers who know what they are doing ....DO .....very sad and embarrassing commentary. An example of the elementary level of this "commentator" is the comment about the kick being "whereever she wants to put it". NOT EVEN CLOSE. The KICK is put WHERE it is most effective for the piece ...typically WITH one of the parts ...bass, accompaniment, or lead. I absolute hate "analyzers" who think they know what's going on and DON'T .....but they insist they must come up with an "explanation" ...perhaps to try to sound like they understand the performance .....and they actually haven't a clue. You can just keep "a-bobbing your head" .....because it looks like that's all you can do. And "oh my gosh" ....you have "other videos"???????? OH PUUUUUULLLLLLLLEAEAEAEAEAEAEAAEASSSSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!

Here is a good Band Maid song. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T6VNzlw_SM0.html, thru searching, there are a lot of impressive playing by this band. Just weird uniforms for a hard rock band.

Did you already check out Anika Nilles? She was Jeff Beck's last live-drummer and has her own channel on RU-vid. 👏

Why is there a need for a guy insert explaining the video? Just nuisance.
