This was such a good song to listen to and the drum battle is probably one of the cooler things I've ever seen in how it threads together 2 drum kits into 1 solo. NICE TOUCH!!
Murata is one of the best female drummers in the world and the one of Japan's top drummers, who played incredible drums on Silent Jealousy Murata is the real deal, who everyone wants :)

Thanks Vand3r reviewing this. As a non-drummer, both ladies have great skill of drumming, but I feel something on Yoyoka’s sound even she doesn’t play her own drumset. I feel Yoyoka has some own groove that many of drum legends have. Bohnam, Pocaro, Gadd, Roy Haynes, etc. I feel there are much more skilled drummer there, but it is not so often to find drummer who has own groove. I could be wrong, but I feel so. Highly skilled drumming itself makes me excited, but some of drumming which has own groove makes me more than excited, very emotional.
This is one of the best drum demos esp. by two skillful drummers. Yoyoka’s cross over was done so effortlessly that people who aren’t knowledgeable might think it’s so easy. But we all know it’s not. I discovered Tamu through this vid and you can tell she’s the more ‘experienced’ one but I think Yoyoka was just showing deference to her and some restraint on her playing. But you can tell though that the kid has the groove and the older she gets the more she’ll develop a more complex solos. Thanks for the reaction Van. I noticed that you are also showing some restraint. I can tell you want to pause on some segments on the first pass of the vid. 😝 I say, just do it. It’s a reaction vid and it should be spontaneous. That’s why I liked your very first reaction of Yoyoka. 👍🥁🤘🏼
I agree pausing is fine/expected. If we want to watch without pauses we can go to Yoyoka's channel. On longer and more complex solos, check out her Improv Collections: th-cam.com/video/yr1_jl9kwWk/w-d-xo.html The commenters have called out some especially good timestamps, such as 13：20
@@ThePallidor oh I’ve seen that vid and I love every bit of it esp. when she jams with her dad. I know how brilliant her improvisational skills are that’s why I was disappointed on how Pearl handled her segment at NAMM. She could’ve been doing these type of improv using the regular drums and not the e-drums. Well anyway that’s another story.
haha awesome! I will definitely get the format working soon xD I dooo so wanna stop it sometimes but I try and show the restraint. So from now on I will just let it flow as organically as possible :D I love yall!!
oh you found it a month ago. I just wanted to recommend this to you. 😁 I love tamu. my favourite drummer, so versatile. check out her channel ( type "tamu murata", then you see a lightgreen circle with a drawing, tahts it), lots of drumvids, some cute cooking videos too. especially the japan X covers with the original singer are superawesome. hilarrious videos with ladybeard. and her smile ... and I´m curious, where yoyoka is in ten years. she is such a talent.
I showed you this. I figured you would love it. Glad you did. Wave Potter said you guys have a secret project, can't wait to see it. You guys are both so cool and I love what you're doing! I'm thinking that Yoyoka may have done this on the same day she recorded this family original "Utopia - Kaneaiyoyoka (V-Drums Live Ver.)" / ユートピア - かねあいよよか th-cam.com/video/wv8wQ78em18/w-d-xo.html. Same clothes and venue it looks like.
I believe these two perfromances were shot is two different locations. From what I read Yoyoka was unable to attend the program in person. There's another YT that shows the competition is Yoyoka is on a video conference for the show.
Ive heard that Yoyoka is gonna perform @ the Japan Olympic games 2021..in July.. @the side.. Tamu is more than twice Yoyoka's age.. 28 now.. but she has also awesome drumming skills.. :)

Playing with a seasoned pro like Tamu Murata fazed Yoyoka not one noticeable bit. She remains comfortable in her own skin at the skins. You can't intimidate this legend in the making. That's what makes Proffesor Yoyoka exceedingly adorable. 💖
But Yoyoka still isn't in the same ballpark as Senri Kawaguchi when it comes to Jazz. She's not even close... yet. But Yoyoka is very young. Time will tell if she can get to that level. Murata is closer to Senri's level, but still not quite there, despite being 6 years older. Senri is the benchmark for Japanese female drummers, which is why she has shared the stage with the all time great drummers like Gadd and Weckl and all the best Jazz players overall. Senri has been creating her own drum parts since on original music she was 12, and making albums at 14. Yoyoka is still at the copying stage. But she's still phenomenal, for sure.
That is a good question. I honestly would like to know too. haha My cymbal endorsement hates that I still use my zildjian's cause I can't afford to switch to saluda or soultone yet.
Hi bro I like your TH-cam channel. I think you should check out, O'Keefe music academy. The kids are so, talented, they play Tool's songs- sober and 46&2, so good I think they just as good if not better. They play other bands too. I request to see them on your TH-cam channel. I believe everyone one who watches your channel would love and respect these kids. The way they sing and play. I believe you would be amazed. Keep up the good work 👍🇭🇲
You said "her kit". Maybe you just meant the kit she was playing. I believe the kit might belong to Roland and they were just showcasing it as part of the summit. I'm not a big fan of Roland, but if you want to show it off, who would you get to play it? Yep! These two awesome drummers could make anything sound good! Yoyoka even plays a tiny "paper" drum kit in one of her family videos, and made it sound good. ....LOL
Interesting. Tamu will always be my favorite drummer. This artist is complete, It also has somenthing that other do not have . an immence charisma ! Yoyoka is also good. Tamu is about to consecrate herfelf with Nemophila. Will be the best metal band in Japan . I don't understand English but l liked it 👍 greetings .all Nemophila fans you can put subtitles in spanish.
I am going to make sure proper subtitles are there in all future videos :D I am a single person running this channel so I sometimes forget little things. Thank you for watching!
Mr. Vanderhorst: May I ask why you're addressing Tamu Murata by her Family name? In polite form, it would be Murata San. It's kind of like calling Ginger Baker, "Baker". Tamu's given name is Ai. Tamu is her nickname. Tamu is the feminine form of Tam which means Tom. She plays toms. She also goes by, Muratatam which means "fold up" another nickname. Yoyoka is really getting her chops down; and she can be what ever drummer she chooses to be. I don't know if there is any one kind of drummer. I've always considered myself as a rock drummer. My first recording, was in 1968, where I was a percussionist in a classical orchestra taped live. My first studio session was with the Montclair Jazz Experiment in 1971. You just kind of play what's handed to you. I think Yoyoka is going to be able to play anything! Hang in there and keep drumming! Russ
haha well I don't speak Japanese, the name I found for her on this video was the Murata Tama, I do apologize if this was incorrect xD In the american military we address each other by last names, so it's very common to get that mixed up! I guess that would be like calling me Leftwich instead of my first name Nick haha WHoops! Thank you for pointing that out though! I totally did not mean to get that wrong. and yes I 100% believe Yoyoka will go on to write her own music doing ANYTHING she wants.
@@vand3rhorst Hi, Nick! It's great to be on a first name basis with you! I did a little time in the army. (21 years, combined active and reserve) It would irk me when Specialists would say, "Hey, Murphy!" The officers would address me as "Sergeant Murphy", unless they were asking me to do something special, then it was, "Oh, Russ". There are things I like about Nemophila that's more than the music. Tamu Murata, Saki, and Hazuki all sponsor and support younger, up and coming performers. What you might not know, Yoyoka and Tamu have been corresponding with each other for several years; mostly tweets. This is a great duet! You can really see the growth in Yoyoka! Yoyoka also keeps in touch with Dave Grohl, among others. Hang in there and check out that old video of Tamu! Best Wishes! Russ
@@vand3rhorst The Japanese name order issue is always confusing. The reasons why are below if interested: In Japan the family name is said first, but then for celebrities or people interacting with the Anglosphere it's often reversed for effect or out of a recognition that people from other countries will tend to say it in the opposite order. So it becomes a game of second-guessing each other. This happens also with pronunciation. For instance, Ami is pronounced Ah-mi but Americans will say it Amy since it looks closest to that, so the person will sometimes give up and say to call them Amy, but then some will look up how to say the Japanese name Ami and call them Ah-mi, so endless confusion. So, in Japan Yoyoka is often just called Yoyoka as a celebrity but Soma Yoyoka when her full name is used. In English we would say Yoyoka Soma. Murata Ai became Murata Tamu, so the natural way to call her in English would be Tamu Murata, and then you might want to call her by her "first name" Tamu since that's what we do for Yoyoka, but whether this is "correct" or not depends on whether Tamu Murata uses Tamu as a "celebrity name" (a "geimei" in Japanese). Maybe she uses Muratatam(u) as a celebrity name instead. No way to know unless you listen to how she introduces herself in English, if you can find that, or listen to how she's reported in news, etc. But if in doubt the safe way is to call her "Tamu Murata," just as you could always call Yoyoka by her full name "Yoyoka Soma." Not that a Japanese person is ever going to fault you for saying it "wrong" (though fans may).

Absolutely brilliant 👏👌
Two FANTASTIC drummers.
Amazing 👏
Wow 👍😎🇮🇪
You might wanna watch Murata Tamu's covers from her TH-cam Channel.
awesome :D I had no idea she did covers too I will look into this now :D ty
this is not a drummer's battle but a real clinic on the art of playing the drums
I. Glad you didn’t stop the groove until they finished.
This video was part of kid drummers contest - Tamu, Yoyoka and the guy to the right was judges.
Powerful man. Gotta love them both
I thought you would like that! Awesome reaction Vand, thank you. Pat 🏴
Awsome 🎵🎵🎵

yes and she got ginger baker too! thats bloody good
And the winner is ... music! (oh, and Japan too of course)
YES!!!

What you have not mentioned about Yoyoka, she's as equally good at JAZZ as she is at ROCK.
I have learned so much by watching her, ghost notes, time, everything...EVERYTHING. I love it.
But Yoyoka still isn't in the same ballpark as Senri Kawaguchi when it comes to Jazz. She's not even close... yet.
But Yoyoka is very young. Time will tell if she can get to that level. Murata is closer to Senri's level, but still not quite there, despite being 6 years older.
