Senri Kawaguchi is the Queen of Drumming. Kanade Sato is the Goddess of Drumming. She does everything so easily, she is always totally relaxed, and she plays with a level of musicality that sets her above any other drummer I know.

You are right. They can play jazz, funk, fusion, and also metal rock. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mdeeg7GBvbysm5s.html Senri was 14 years. Bassist and keyboardist was members of CASIOPEA and Guitarist is legend guitarist of Japan. Now Kanade Sato plays with CASIOPEA.

Those are probably my favourites of this list as well even though I also really like Yoyoka and Nao. I would probably name Senri as my favourite of the bunch even if I am quite a bit Band-Maid fan, but I do agree that it's very difficult to compare them. I started listening to Senri before I got into the Japanese Rock/Metal rabbit hole, so that's probably why. That being said, all of these women are incredibility talented musicians, no doubt about that. I can without a doubt say that all of the ones I heard before deserve to be on this list and I'm sure the same can be said for the rest.

@rolandkarlsson7072 Жыл бұрын

So .... we have to choose? Senri and Kanade are the most skilled ones. Generally. Mad chops! Tamu is totally amazing. She is allround and can play anything. Just a step below Senri and Kanade, but more useful. You can hire her, she is a session drummer. Yoyoka is young and totally amazing, but needs to mature before she knows what to do with that talent. She might be the most skilled one technically. She has a scary skill regarding timing and dynamics. And also memory. She learn to cover a complex song tone for tone in no time at all. Haruna is fast. Blindingly fast. And has a unbelievable stamina. I thought that was her only skills until I heard Lovebites cover of Painkiller. Now I know she can more. Junna is a bit of a special case. She started drumming late. And still has very nice chops. Some impressive covers. But, I am not sure how all around she is. Akane is also a special case. Her drumming in BAND-MAID is amazing. But I have not heard so much of her diversity. Sae is a good drummer, but I do not think she is generally amazing. The rest of the girls I know nothing about.

Great list! Senri and Kanade are so technically proficient they remind me of Neil Peart. Yoyoka is a natural that is having so much fun and can switch gears and cover any master, any style! Junna has the best presentation I’ve ever seen! She’s very talented on the drums but if you close your eyes and listen on the headphones to focus on the fine details you miss the visual part of her art and that’s a major loss! They’re all monsters in different dimensions and I’m thankful for their hard work and the resources and support they had while they worked hard at it!

As an all around drummer of all styles, Senri Kawaguchi is by far the absolute pinnacle of modern drummers... both male and female. Seriously, it ain't even close. Senri not only reads music, she's created 4 albums worth of original music. And her drum parts are spectacular, to say the least. Yoyoka has some work to do to get to her level.

Some are contrasted, seemingly light at first and able to put extrem power when needed. Some other are lightning fast and razor sharp. This is like seeing multiple watch brands, all making different stuff, but, in the end, giving the exact time. I can only be testimony of their incredible skill and wish them a happy life.

@@HarveyAnk Why do you assume that Yoyoka is unable to play anything with any musician? Her bio is on most of her videos. Yoyoka has played with dozens of other professional musicians live, in the studio and in remote collaborations. These include Ian Paice (Deep Purple), Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big), Tony Franklin (The Firm), Rhonda Smith (Prince), Derek Sherinian (Dream Theater), Fall Out Boy and Cyndi Lauper. She plays a wide-range of genres including rock, swing, jazz and funk (I have not seen reggae... yet). Yoyoka is already recognized as one of the best world wide having been selected as one of Drummerworld's top 500 drummers. She was 11 at the time, the youngest ever (Senri Kawaguchi was previously the youngest). One example of her abilities: Yoyoka was a surprise guest drummer for Fall Out Boy, performing in front of 20,000 people. The regular drummer stood by in case she flubbed it. About half-way through, the drummer walked off like "yep, she has this". Yoyoka knocked the song out of the park. They only practiced once, in the dressing room, at no volume. I call this a good test for being able to play anything with any musician. Yoyoka's 12th Birthday session is a collection of videos made in one day with several well known Japanese musicians. They were selected and invited by Yoyoka and all wanted to participate. Please take a listen, they are good (Search Yoyoka 12th Birthday). And the coolest part: she still has a lot to learn...
