It's always been out there, the issue is getting people to want to listen to it. To be fair, about the only time that complex, technical popular music ever really got fairly popular was the brief period of prog's initial bloom in the 70s, and that was a fairly unique time in a lot of ways. Part of the problem is that people who are very technically good mostly are not able to combine that technicality with great (non-instrumental) songwriting of the sort that is widely appealing, i.e. accessible, emotionally impactful, catchy, non-wanky, with vocals, etc... That's hard to do. Purely instrumental music has almost never been widely popular in the modern era. Happens once in a while, but not often.
The woman's compositions are so tight, and ripe for improvisation. She has put together a great group of musicians for the different bands she has. I dig her music (BTW, she's hotter than a hot August day!).....
Juna, I love the sound you create with a quartet, especially with Harumo on sax. Also it's great to hear you open with a tasteful slap bass part. Fantastic set by all!
Juna Serita is sensational, she is always accompanied by the best... I really missed seeing and watching Harumo play... she is simply incredible and very beautiful too
Juna is one of the greatest bassist ever! I don’t think she’s getting enough exposure because she’s Japanese and a female, but she’s definitely brilliant, and all of her accompanying musicians are top flight performers! I love them all and here in America real music like hers is desperately needed because we’re constantly bombarded with garbage forms of hiphop, and nasty mouth rappers, I’m a fan of Juna!
Let's not forget Grunge, Acid Rock and a few others Im sure that could make that list as well. But yeah,....today's Rap (if you want to call that music) is definitely garbage.
Check yourself...before you wreak yourself!!! Old school bassist are forgotten...Louis Johnson...Stanley Clarke...Larry Grapham...Verdine White ...the list goes on...I'm not saying g she's not good...just can't rate with the best. Yet!!!
Juna's accompanying musicians are always as good as she is. I could close my eyes and wonder which American jazz band it is. But jazz and funk are international in every corner of earth and belongs to the world.
I'm loving it that other Nationalities are KEEPING the funk alive. Check out this studio band from Australia name HCSS. Their remakes of a lot of songs is just as good as the originals.
A wonderful composition! Juna and Harumo together are like cake and ice cream. Great ensemble! Tight joyous sound. Thanks for sharing this audio treasure. Lvya all much
@@kaitlyn__L Her and Stanley Turentine are my favorites. Stanley is no longer with us. I had the pleasure to meet and sit and talk with him in the early 1980s. I can only hope to meet Harumo some day.
A perfect example that FUNK and Jazz is priceless and hip hop has became slopped up. Two years L8R I'm still listening to this "Beautiful FUNK." 💙🔥🌷🎷🎸😍🍑🍒💙
@@JunaSeritaMusic please come to the US and tour Juna!! Lots of jazz fans would love to see you and your band play! You all are so talented. Been listening to your music for the last 3 years. Wonderful music.
Every time I want to praise one player, another does something spectacular! Great drums, great piano, great sax, and of course wonderful bass. Thank you very much
いやぁ…最高ですよ、芹田ジュナ！ 今井春馬さんの素晴らしいテナーサックス、Mako-Tさんの素晴らしいピアノ、kinoPさんの完璧なドラム、皆さんは全てにおいて完璧でした。 👏🏻👏🏻🌟💕 Oh wow.... this is the very best of you guys, Juna Serita! Magnificent Tenor Sax by Haruma Imai, Spectacular piano by Mako-T, perfect drums by kinoP- altogether you guys were just flawless! テナーサックス アルトサックス
Back in 70ie,80ie, Pastorius , Alfonso jonshon, & co we are back to time when real musicians used to play real instruments 🎸 🎷🥁… so nice 👌🏽 !!!! Those musicians were not part of this planet back then !! Unbelievable !!
Yes that is very important and possible to. Makes sense Che makes de best jazz for me.I am very interested in music 🎶 and I 🎶 am guitarman from Blue-Velvet very much now in Eindhoven Europe 🇪🇺 Germany and smile Belgium,Sweden and so many more.
This is Juna's group, so it might be better to say adding Harumo (they're friends) along with Mako-T and kinoP make it special. I don't think Juna actually has a regular band, but she's the hardest working bass player on the Japanese Jazz/Funk scene and anybody would jump at the chance to play with her. Hell I would.
✨Juna Serita Live Information✨
11/30 水戸コルテス
1/13 BLUES ALLAY JAPAN
That piano solo supported by the drum is so tight and tasty. So good!
Juna and Harumo, my favourite funky ladies 🙏🏼🥰💪🏼
Each an expert player of their respective instruments. And Juna also plays keyboard and sax.
Thank goodness there are real musicians who groove and improvise at full speed, fresh and relaxed.
This gives me hope in bringing back real musicianship and talent in a lost world of commercialization and non talented souls. Thank you ❤

The hard work is paying off! Juna and the rest of her badazz band are kicking it HARD.
It's always good to start the morning with some coffee and some Juna.
Java and Juna

Thanks! Good Morning from Dallas.☕
Thank you from Japan🙏✨

Jazz is in itself a gift to the world for everyone to enjoy.
Be cool cats. 😎
That's Funky...play lady...gone groove Juna!! ❤

First time I heard her l was really impressed. Mostly Japanese musicians are very good 👌👌👌.
日本ではゴミのようなアイドルや、下品な尻振りダンスが流行っていてTVでJunaを見かける事はありません。私はTH-camでJunaを発見してから、TVの音楽番組は見なくなりました。

Yet!!!
It’s got nothing to do with her being female or Japanese, stop trying to make everything about race or gender that doesn’t solve anything.
Good to see Harumo Imai as well, they are a great pair
THIS IS A REALLY GREAT PERFORMANCE...!!!!!!
Juna's accompanying musicians are always as good as she is. I could close my eyes and wonder which American jazz band it is. But jazz and funk are international in every corner of earth and belongs to the world.

Universal 💯
Juna is the reason I watch videos on my home theater system!
I love the evolutionary journey of Juna's music, happy to see the direction she has taken.
Also, great duet. Juna and Harumo merge.
Keep on funkin' ladies (and gents)! Wonderful stuff.
Это просто бальзам для души и ушей. Очень красиво. Спасибо Juna.
A wonderful composition! Juna and Harumo together are like cake and ice cream. Great ensemble! Tight joyous sound. Thanks for sharing this audio treasure. Lvya all much
True ! And apparently they like to eat a lot a cake and ice-cream too, because both seem to have gained quite some weight lately 🧐
@@loekfelten548 that's uncalled for and spurious. Not even funny. These two ladies are absolutely gorgeous
@@loekfelten548looking at your profile pic you should be the last one to comment about somebody's appearance or weight
Harumo is quickly becoming my favourite tenor player..!

💙🔥🌷🎷🎸😍🍑🍒💙
Harumo + Juno my favorites .. hope to catch them live on my next japan trip...🇯🇵
Juna Serita looks like someone with talent and strong will. It makes people beautiful. Keep on grooving
In my mind, one of the most inspiring song by Serita and the best band
Sooo cool! Juna's starting solo
Nothing wrong with new members but the old members give such characteristic the Real Juna. I still Love it.
> Toronto, Canada
Love it... thank you from SF Bay Area---look forward to when your band comes this way...
I’d love to!

They are all good musicians, however, I like Harumo Imai. This one has a lot of talent, charm and goes far beyond the average.
