QUADRATUM - ERUPTION/DANCE OF ETERNITY (Live) Reaction  

Supreme talent on show here.

Jill studied violin from the age of three, and her teacher did not like sheet music and forced her to play by ear. As a result, she has an absolute ear for melody, and as she said: I can play the sound of rain if I hear it

Shiren said in an interview that all of Jill's cells are made of music.

I have never seen this video! Very cool music! Thanks for showing me this video! Thank you for the reaction!

Well guys that was fantastic. Whole band were on point and Jill was just incredible a real powerhouse, I was exhausted watching her.

nailed eruption for sure

QUADRATUM is quite different from UM because it's a spin-off unit without not only Fuki but also Shiren, who does composition, guitar and growl. It's characterized by having Jill in the center and doing covers of famous songs. UM and its related bands have many elements that require a lot of Japanese context to fully understand. They are also bands that are primarily aimed at a Japanese audience. They are technically superior bands, so there are many parts that people who like this kind of music can enjoy, but if you're not someone who shares that context, the range of enjoyment is significantly narrowed. You may also often see people making off-target criticisms or going off on tangents. The reason why you can't enjoy some songs, or find them inferior to others, may be because you don't share the context. I think QUADRATUM can be recommended to people who are not very familiar with UM, as there are many aspects of it that can be enjoyed without much Japanese context.

Jill struggling??? If I'm not mistaken there's a video of her somewhere playing this blindfolded.... 🤣🤣🤣

she’s badass

This one was actually performed during an Unlucky Morpheus performance and was used to give Fuki and Shiren a break during the set. But yes, I agree that a lot of the Japanese bands don't rest when something happens with one of the bandmembers either. Nemophila did a couple of quartet performances while vocalist Mayu was away on maternity leave and Gacharic Spin performed with a temporary drummer or Hana back on drums (for their album) when their new drummer yuri was on maternity leave. As far as the Dance Of Eternity performance goes, I think Jill was trying to match her tempo to the bass and guitar (when she was looking over) because they were slightly off from each other, but eventually they matched back up. And like other have said, Jill has performed this on stream blindfolded, so I am sure she practiced this a lot. Also, the bassist is originally a jazz bassist, so he is more than capable of playing most things, he just doesn't get a lot of opportunity to show off. As far as Quadratum goes, they released one album with only covers in 2021, which are all pretty technical. 1. Far Beyond The Sun (by Yngwie Malmsteen) 2. The Dance Of Eternity (by Dream Theater) 3. Into The Arena (by The Michael Schenker Group) 4. Hundreds Of Thousands (by Tony MacAlpine) 5. Scarified (by Racer X) 6. Eruption (by Van Halen) 7. For The Love Of God (by Steve Vai) 8. Technical Difficulties (by Racer X) 9. 17th Century Chicken Pickin' (by Impellitteri) A lot of people also really like their "Far Beyond The Sun" and "For The Love Of God" covers, me included. I don't believe there is a live versions of those, but the music video is great as well.

Guys, I know you've seen UM before so you are not first watching JILL play. For your info, she is NOT struggling. You need to understand. She is a bona fide graduate of the number one top Art and Music University in Japan who also has won violin competitions. Yes, she has a music degree. The girl's been playing violin since she was three years old. NO, she is not struggling. She can play this blind folded. There is a live stream she did where she did that.

Jill can play DANCE OF ETERNITY with her eye's closed, in fact in a live stream she did it wearing a blindfold. ru-vid.com8eZVVtaOBKk?feature=share&t=1453 Both songs are off an EP/album they released, called "Loud Playing Workshop", or as Ogawa the bassist calls it Jill Promotional Workshop, which they released a few videos from. Fuki singer said that the violin is the voice of the EP, so she did not have to sing. I don't think there will be another EP like this from them, as Fuki was the one who had to go around all the record companies to ask for permission to play the songs, something she does not want to do again. But never mind they have done their own tracks, usually 1 on each album, with just the 4 of them playing, Spartan Army being very popular.

The best cover ever🤘🏻🔥

They are also one of the bands that increase their charm at live performances! 👍🤩

It is one thing to do a record / musicvideo and it is awesome but playing this live that they do is just.... superdupermegaawesome!

Im soooo glad to see you react to this especially the LIVE version as this band ( and singer) are so freakin talented and amazing that more people need to be exposed to them. They are another Japanese metal treasure!!! Thank you.....

That was brilliant. Like J.S. Bach riding a rollercoaster.

I am glad that y'all enjoyed this video. Although all are world class talents, this was the Jill show from start to finish. There are music videos of both of these covers (as well as Jill playing blindfolded during a live stream) but this is my favorite. Are Jill and Lindsey Stirling the best rock/metal violinists in the world? Although Lindsey Stirling uses primarily electric violins and sometimes acoustic, Jill uses acoustic all of the time. I greatly respect her dedication to acoustic since it is more unforgiving than electric, especially at that speed. Another Japanese musician that should be known worldwide but is not.

JILL!😁😍Best use of a Classical Training apart from Miyako😁

🤘🏽LOVEBITES RULES🤘🏽

Quadratum is Unlucky Morpheus without Fuki _and_ Shiren. I'd be surprised - really surprised - if Jill was struggling at any point in this video. I think the sky is the limit for what she can play.

Jill est une tueuse... Je parcours votre chaine, c'est curieux vu que vous passez pas mal de japonais que vous ne soyez jamais tombé sur sokoninaru... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0B8_dgTXYlc.html le groupe fait pas mal de cover dans leur studio de répetition Cette reprise qu'ils ont du faire juste pour le solo de guitare est extra ordinaire ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Yy-BJT_3dOY.html
