Wonderful reaction. Thank you. Yoyoka went into a studio with Japans rock royalty for a short day for her 12th birthday and recorded 10 rock standards all one take and some of the best covers you are likely to hear. Any rehearsals were done prior and at a distance. Now 13 she currently manages to produce a fresh video weekly. Her latest is Jeff beck's Led Boots! She also co-wrote a prog rock number called Sparkling. (just name dropping, Derek Sherinian played keys for it).
The most remarkable thing about her isn't that she's a kid but that even at 9 and 10 she had this ability to add excitement and sizzle to the music, elevating it in a way I'm not sure I've seen any other drummer do. Check out what she did with Peter Gabriel's Steam for a great example. She often doesn't put out a cover unless she thinks she can improve on the original, so you pretty much can't go wrong with any of her covers that are just her playing alone.
Hey, great reaction! I do hope you can listen to much more of her efforts. She's played with some amazingly talented bands in Japan, and is now trying to establish herself in the US. The crazy thing is that she started at the age of two, when she was watching her dad rehearse with his band. Story is that she toddled over the drum kit, at which point the drummer sat her in his lap, and that was it for her lol. At an insanely young age she was sitting in with her dad's band on stage and killing it, steady as a rock. Now 13, her technique has progressed to the point that she has the power and authority of a true, grown-up professional.
"This kid loves music is a slight understatement"...LOL She crawled over to the kit at age 1.5 and has been killin' it ever since. Youngest ever to be added to DrummerWorld's Top 500 Drummers of all time. Has more accomplishments than most career drummers. In a recent interview she stated that Music is her first language. She has been playing drums before she could talk. She can play a song after 2-3 listens. Is never asked to practice, decides what she is going to play on her own, and has withdrawals if she doesn't get to play for 2 days. She loves playing, but doesn't actually like to practice, because, as she told Ellen Degeneres, on one of her two appearances on her show, she's "lazy". Ellen laughed. Everyone thinks she practices songs hundreds of times, but she doesn't She practices about an hour a day. A little more when she has a gig. Her father is a sound engineer and taught her how to tune her own drums. She has 11 mics on her kit, and is always praised for how great her sound is. She has been known to give other band members a "dirty" look when they mess up and has been advising local bands how "to play a song better", since age 6. At first when she told the band that, they all looked at each other like WTH! Then tired it the way she suggested and agreed with her. When asked how she is so in tune with what all the other band members are doing, she said she pictures all of them like she is a drone and is looking down on them (from a visual aspect). When an interviewer said she makes playing a song look so easy, then asked what is she thinking about when she is playing, she responded, "Sometimes I'm thinking about what's for dinner". LOL What you witnessed with the awesome kick pattern was called "The YOYOKA Effect", that she adds, making most covers better than the originals. She is able to do that because of her "Magic Socks". Has several nicknames, "The Hokkaido Hammer", "The Human Metronome", and others. Her mom is proud of the fact that she routinely destroys her kit because she hits so hard. Destroying a pair of sticks every other day and 3-4 cymbals per year. She intentionally strikes the rim on most shots for special effect. If you can't tell we all love this girl! She plays "Rosanna" effortlessly and flawlessly. Many adult drummers say they've been playing for 20 years and still can't play it. She has been teaching that kick pattern since 8 years old. She has 8 endorsement deals including DW.
It's always fun for Yoyoka fans to see someone discover her amazing talent for the first time. Believe me we all end up with silly grins on our faces every time she releases another video! Other commenters have made a whole raft of great suggestions for you to check out, all I can add is that she is an amazing, charming and funny character as well and belongs to a close knit family of musically gifted lovely people.
Yes, it always puts a smile on my face when someone realises "wait ... this isnt just a very good kid drummer. This is a DAMN GOOOD drummer. Period. And she's three years older now.
Dude....so glad you've discovered Yoyoka. Check out her cover of "Achilles Last Stand" to see how she progresses. I believe she did it at 12 years old. She's now moved to the U.S. and is living in California.
Thanks for reviewing Yoyoka, this is just a sample of her talent and she is much better now (she turned 13 last Oct.). This is a drummer to watch as she's destined for greatness.
I should write, I have no relationship with Yoyoka, her family, endorsers, channels, etc. whatsoever. I like to encourage people to discover her ability. She's a rare talent, _and_ tonic to the soul. 😂 Best Wishes. ☮
Technically a piece of cake for this prodigy at that age but she loves the funk. Much of this timing, coordination and dynamics was already present in her covers around the age of 7.
Excellent reaction, with Yoyoka we are never disappointed in addition I advise you to go see her most recent cover, of Led Zep, Jeff Beck and so on it's a pure delight to hear it. Yoyoka is a sacred drum monster.
Double check. I think it is not. It is surely her go to snare which is Sonor, but say it quietly. Just occasionally in her vids you can see the Sonor symbol.
She only practices 1 hour a day! Says she hates it. She's a prodigy who's done it her own way. She can't read music. I love her so much! Please check out : Burn Her 12th Birthday Session Her Peter Gabriel cover when she was 9 And any of her others, they're all good!

@@glenkelley6799 Yoyoka's "Led Boots" cover is _slightly_ dangerous. I haven't been able to listen just the once. I need to listen several times, then 'boom' 25 minutes have passed. 😂 But no real complaints. 😀 I'm very pleased she's found someone talented to jam with. She needs to play with other talented musicians, and be challenged musically. One of my fears is she won't be stretched enough in the US, not because their aren't talented musicians, just they have other, higher priority, aims. Anyway, I'll stop ranting. Best Wishes, Glen. ☮

Japan produces ridicilously good female drummers, but I never have seen one of them being so good as Yoyoko at this age is; not even the great great Senri Kawaguchi or Kanade Sato (now drumming in Koiai with Lisa-X). Mr. Bulmer gave you some excellent examples but to be honest, I want to advice you to go through her entire catalogue. It's like stepping into drumming paradise and you see all the developping layers of her drumming swing, funk, ferosious (prog)rock and above all FUN. What she did a couple of weeks ago with Led Boots was again something trully special and a completely different approach than the original, but at least as good. A special shout out has to be given to Glen Black. He has supported Yoyoka in many ways. He deserves a lot of respect.

Yoyoka is considered one if the Top Ten Drummers in the World if I remember correctly...and her Cover of, I think its Seven Days. Its Sting in 5-4 Time by Drummer Vinnie Caluchi.
Top 500 drummer's in the world when she was 11.
Legend says she is John Bonham reincarnated.
YES! :) :) :)
That may be true, but... I swear she was channeling Buddy Rich during her last live practice stream 😉
She got that snare when she was 7, She mentioned that in an interview I saw
Another reactor was commenting on the steam by Peter Gabriel cover at 9 years old about her ability to change, Alright Jeff, Keep up the good work
Yes and I think it Sonor, but say it quietly.
That kick was there before birth. Her mother could feel triplet kicks in her womb.
😄
You should check out some of her videos doing Zeppelin -the girl is a phenom
Her Fool in the rain cover is great
I DEFINITELY want to hear her do some Zep!
👍
😄👍✌
Hello Mr. Stratele, I hope all is well with you. I am writing to ask you if you would please react to Dimash's new song. Dimash has a new song that he sings for his Spanish speaking Dears and he is singing in Spanish. I think you will love this video and the amazing way Dimash presents it. I look forward to your reaction. Thank You...Peace and Love A 76 year old Dear since 2017 from N.J. USA
For you anything, dear lady! I'll work on it when I get back from my cruise in a couple weeks. :)
