That transition into Oreo’s solo reminds me of show band R&B funk stuff like Tower of Power, and it’s equally as good as anything Dream Theater ever did. This song is an absolute gem.
I agree. And the fact that this song is just 4/4 from beginning to end with no tempo changes should be as a hint to Dream Theater that no, it's not the complex time-signatures that makes a song. This feels more prog to me than anything they've done in 20 years or so.
I like Arnold. But I think if he had the "Mindset" to put down any moves on this Gacharic Spin's hard-hitting, funky-chunk groove he'd twist himself into Vienna sausage. 🕺🌪
This is imho their best tune ever-and they've been great for a long time now. Funky and rockin and complex & sophisticated as all hell. They are the queens of controlled chaos.
Mindset is one of the most obsession-inducing songs I've heard in over 40 years. Because I can never hear it for the first time again, and have my mind blown by it for the first time, I keep coming back to this reaction video. It's exactly how I felt when I discovered the song. It's such an amazing piece of art.
Cool and interesting react... again. About Japanese bands, well.... I still do not know how is it possible to put into one band so much talent. 😳 Instant fan of this band just after the first 10 sec of this track. The instrumental section at the middle of the song has probably been a nightmare to put the rhythmic in place with this tempo and the layering of all the instruments involved. This is insane. All the musicians and singers are absolutely beasts. But the most amazing thing is that the "Live" version is very close to this one. And watching Hana singing and playing drums at the same time on stage is truly impressive, especially because her drum parts are not "a health walk" (not sure about this translation: une promenade de santé in French).
Yep.. can't ignore these badass ladies..want some funky groovy stuff from GS. .... I'm on board 😉Michiko Koga aka F Chopper Koga.. chef's kiss badass "slappin" bassist
I love this song, it's so funky, groovy, head banging, gets ya movin' rockin', organized chaos. It's one of my favorite songs of 2021 so far. Band-Maid is still at the top of my list, but these ladies in Gacharic Spin put out some amazing songs from time to time. This one caught me by surprise on first listen and has been on a few of my Spotify playlists ever since it released. Along with a pile of Band-Maid songs, Ambivalent by Trident, and a few by Bridear. (Ignite, Bloody Bride, etc) F Chopper Koga is such an amazing bass player, I know a lot of people love the drummer Hanna, but I prefer when she's doing other things like vocal and rhythm guitar. I cannot wait for their newer drummer to come back from having her baby, she's super cute and rockin' on the drums. Glad you listened to us and gave this one a shot, and was fun watching your reactions to this one. Clearly caught you off-guard a bit haha. Want more Gacharic Spin, check out some of their live videos, they are all about being a performance band, so entertaining live and so good. studio MV: th-cam.com/video/DSx9z8ZdDM0/w-d-xo.html) rippin bass line.

During my countless business trips to Japan, I have seen many concerts, Lovebites, Band-Maid, Bridear, many others, and even this crazy band. They are really good in concert, they have great energy, they are festive and playful a bit like the Band-Maid, even if the music is different, they leave you a very positive feeling. Their musical talent is truly impressive. I love Koga very much, she literally takes you away with her bass, in all the songs Koga adds a rousing and festive rhythm, and then she laughs and jumps in concert is really impressive. The song Mindset is one of the best for me, and it gives a good idea of who they are, they are crazy. Great reaction😂❤👍😎❤
I stayed in japan for 6 months and saw live most of my fav bands (Northern 19, Band-maid, Tricot, Real, Dizzy Sunfist, Arukara...) but I couldnt manage to score a ticket for GS for the life of me
@@dearkazuscorner2549 I can understand you, I had great luck during my time in Japan, the contracting company, had given me a young woman as an assistant, she was the typical super-efficient Japanese assistant, and she could have anything, I don't know how he could, but she was impressive.
In Japan, we are not evaluated purely on the basis of music (sound). Gacharic Spin is one of the bands whose musicality is not properly evaluated. The leader, KOGA, was originally a bikini model. However, she broke away from the femininity entertainment business and started a band with her old friend HANA. Many years have passed since then, and their technical reputation has remained steadfast. Now, they have added a new member, Angelina 1/3, who is much younger than the existing members. While the old members had various skills and talents, Angelina shed tears of frustration many times as she felt she had nothing to offer. Objectively speaking, Angelina is still in the process of training to become a vocalist. I look forward to her future growth. Thank you for listening to Japanese music so seriously.
Me finding Japanese music has REALLY opened my eyes about composition and heart. Angelina has a very distinct voice, she will only grow stronger. Having Hana and Oreo there.... she's in a great place!
@@RyanMear Thank you for your reply to my broken English. I play guitar too, and this band's performance may be of interest to instrumentalists. The bassist and leader, KOGA, studied under a famous slap bassist and has since become so proficient that she has released an instructional DVD. Guitarist Tomozo has also released a guitar instructional DVD. So, there is nothing wrong with this band about technic. But the truth is, in Japan today, there are so many people who have graduated from instrumental music schools before starting a band. So there are plenty of instrumentalists who can play at a quality high enough to play in public. From "I have something I really want to say -----> I'll try playing an instrument or writing lyrics" to "I learned playing an instrument for now -----> What band should I join? What should I sing about?" The time has shifted, at least in Japan. In this context, these girls are an old school band. Would a woman who just wants to make money by only playing her favorite instrument get into a van, brush her teeth at a highway rest area, and go around to small concert venue? It's obvious that these women have "something to tell". I believe we should listen to songs of those who have "something to sing" and appreciate the performances of those who have "something to tell (through performance)".
Yes, it is a thing I wish the US understood. Learning music just activates more of your brain, it should be taught early on and not just as a passive class... or at least available. Also, your English is great, no need to apologize!
I discovered this song three days ago from a comment on a Rick Beato video about future trends in popular music. To say that it is mind blowing quality is a massive understatement. The more I listen to it, the better it gets. Not only is this, for me, the best song of 2021, it's one of the best songs I've heard in many, many years. Absolutely incredible musicianship and artistry.
WOW… holy shit dude. I’m new to this song, but thing I love about it is that it’s super heavy without necessarily being “heavy”. As you said, some of that comes down to the video, which I absolutely love! The story of the video is awesome! The metamorphosis of the lead singer from trapped and reserved to liberated and charismatic gives you this feeling of “oh, this girl might be dangerous… like, lead a revolution dangerous, and I love her for it.” Like you said, it has this feeling of reaching an itch you’ve had for a long time.
CLASSIC Gacha Pin. They have been playing around a bit the last few albums sound wise but this is dead nuts GS wheelhouse music. Bro...The Plague That Makes Your Booty Move....THE INFECTIOUUUUUUUS GROOOOOOVES!
So happy to see you reviewing this amazing song from the no less amazing Gacharic Spin! Yes, Hana (drums here) plays bass, guitar, keys and some wind intrument too. They are all extremely skilled musicians as you witnessed - people sometimes tend to forget it because of the fun (and often comedic elements) they have on stage. Btw, they play perfectly well on stage too. The band has recently been rejuvenated thx to new singer Angie (pink - she's 19) and this new album is considered a new start (so the album is eponimic, and produced by themselves).
The chaos continues and it's great. GS is still one of my favorite bands, their diversity of genre blending is top notch. They dropped a new songs "I wish I" that, true to form, is different and it's something that you didn't know you needed to hear. Can't wait for their new album. Last album, Gold Dash was also great (11 songs. all different).
Well that's GS a band some of us new for a while and recognised the huge talent there .It looks like Producing the new album them selves has seen them looking to the west and now gaining a host on new fans out side of Japan .The live version of Mindset shows you they can play that just as good on the stage in real time and the second track off the new album I Wish I is just as good heavier and different but still a musical masterpiece and should be listened to asap
I simply cannot help but feel happy and energetic after listening to this song. That says a great deal about it, since I'm typically plagued by anxiety and depression.
Japanese female bands are on fire in 2021! Def check out Gacharic Spin's new song "I Wish I". Also you def gotta check out Bridear -- Brave New World Revisited. they just put it out and its an almost 8 minute epic
One of my favorite bands of all time Gacharic spin has plenty of “ heavy” stuff “but they don’t o ly do heavy for heavy sake . They do it all they are they true meaning of “ artist” Try the newest release “ I wish I” you will see what I mean
Another great reaction. My new favorite Gacharic Spin song. Check out Juicy Beats (studio version) for another side of the band. I was struck by your referee to Infectious Grooves. I have their CDs and saw pre-Trujillo Suicidal Tendencies several times in San Francisco clubs. In Mindset, Spin deliver the same kind of energy.
Just found this reaction, not sure why it didn't show up before. I'm completely with you on this one. They have been doing crazy, creative, genre-breaking stuff for 12 years now, and just keep surprising.
I love this song. Gachapin does Chili Peppers. Gold dust is a great album, and some of their heavier style from spinoff Doll$Box has started leaking into GS releases. GS is hyper creative. Maybe we should get Hana and Kanami to collaborate but Im not sure the world would survive.
Gacharic hasn't really been able to get me hooked, but THIS song is bloody incredible. New album next week! Exciting! (Also.. Monster Skank is my fav Infectious Grooves-song)
Great Reaction Ryan! Besides Band-maid my other favorite …Great to hear reference to Infectious grooves. I never thought of that before hearing you say that…Keep it up Ryan!
Good Morning to you too Ryan! That got me up and about. Yeah, Gacharic Spin. Such a great line-up, they could take their music anywhere, and often do. Reaction succinct, conveying equal parts respect and joy, and entertaining. One might think that you could do this regularly. 😎 Carry On!
Thanks for the co-inspiration, Ryan. These crazy artists just hit my personal top 5 singles, one good point: this creation starts you instantly, never lets you down, bashes you to an end. LOVE IT! sorry for being late sub you, I have been watching your reacts a while, you're the one I now hit to really get that "he knows what he is hearing" feel about a hot group.
LOVE this track! What a JAM! Talent overload. The lead singer/performer looks like trouble...good trouble...but trouble nonetheless. Just waiting for the new album to drop and then it's download time. And...I'll just drop this here. Sokoninaru's - Tenohira De Odoru. You MAY recognize a certain riff. :) Thanks Ryan!
Very cool funky song. From the video and all that I have to assume they're talking about being yourself and being confident. Is that the mindset? The things I've heard from this band have been really fun and well written, so I do think they could be a band I put in my regular list of being listened to.
GS was my gateway back into japanese music. I grew up in the 80’s listening to X and Show-ya but had stopped while in college and rediscovered just how good Japanese rock/metal was in the 20teens …. By the way… the Bass player is an ex-bikini model and if you’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing any of her prior work …. Hubba hubba …..
Great band - thanks for the reaction! That "implied heaviness" you mentioned I believe can also be applied to RHCP. It's an attitude and energy maybe more than an actual heavy sound. Great analysis. Cheers!
From what I understand, Hanna and F Chopper wanted to be in a band together, what was needed was a drummer....so Hanna learned drums...... Woah! It was kind of static having one of the lead singers stuck behind drums, so they got a new drummer and Hanna now plays guitar.... WHOA!
@@nanakakitano9724 . Thank you for the clarification. In any case, Hana has become a beast as a drummer. I think she could do anything she decided she wanted to.
I've seen older stuff of theirs.... it's "sort of" heavy and at the same time not. But they are good at doing unexpected stuff. There are some "flavours" of other Japanese music but they are definitely their own sound.
Don't forget to check out their other new video I Wish I: th-cam.com/video/-R6Nrr_omjE/w-d-xo.html another masterpiece And if you liked the funkyness here, also check out Miyavi x Daoko / Diner: th-cam.com/video/kjiSn0ug4oU/w-d-xo.html It's a bit more on the pop side, but I'm quite sure that the guitar was a inspiration for Mindset, since Miyavi is quite huge in Japan.
Glad you gave Gacharic Spin another go they have been around for a good while now and they just don't get the love other groups get. I will admit a lot of their music is not for everyone they are all over the place which I really like personally. I know some ppl like a group to have the same sound every album, but I appreciate groups that just do what they want and make it all sound good. In this one I love Koga's bass all that funk she is dishing out just makes me think of some Parliament. I could really see Parliament and GS jamming together they both even do the crazy colorful outfits.
I think for me it's not so much about having the same style all the time as long as you're doing something interesting with your sound. These ladies seem to definitely keep up with that.
Great reaction once more. I‘m glad you gave GS another try. Truly a great and interesting band. Short behind Band-Maid my other music love. Tomo-Zo is one of the most interesting and versatile guitar player from Japan. Highly underrated by many and like Kanamincho very unique and reminds of nobody else too. As a guitar player I would highly recommend their instrumental th-cam.com/video/VXAB83r0lbQ/w-d-xo.html
With the new singer, their creative thoughts have started to explode. React to I Wish I. It a song they released recently that sounds way different than this song.
This band has undergone several mutations. Watch them for a while and you'll get what I mean. They're really high energy. They're also basically Doll's Box with the singer from Unlucky Morpheus. The gal who was the drummer and singer now plays guitar and there is a new lead singer. As I said, watch them a number of times and you'll get it.
ARIGATO for the nice reaction!! ANGIE(vo), F CHOPPER KOGA(bass), TOMO-ZO(guitar), HANA(drums), and OREOREONA(keyboard) are awesome. Please react more and more!!
Acá en Colombia no escuchamos esta banda. Sin embargo yo a conocía desde que Armmy era cantante. Lamenté mucho su muerte. Pero cuando escuché Mindset, me comprometí a darle dos visitas por día durante un año, fantástica canción, fue una experiencia única, aún escucharla hasta hoy día, un remedio para la pandemia.
Somebody help me because this song is so fucking fire but every time I look for another Gacharic Spin song I come up a little disappointed...what should I listen to if I like this?
Try Mirai Ronso for the most similar sound from the same album - th-cam.com/video/4LjTyVc5TuA/w-d-xo.html - GS can definitely be tricky if you like a particular sound, but personally I've come to love the variety
Gacharic spin as a band has been around for a while now, and they seem to produce TONs of songs but came up empty in their early years. Then, a few years ago, Angie came in as their vocalist. And they start to put more Rock, or musical element more seriously into this band. I would say Angie actually saved this band from going disbanded.
I'm so glad the OG japanese spaceship crashed on this shitty planet of ours! Lets enjoy until Mother Ship comes pick them up! BTW, none of you usual j-rock reactors have done this one yet: th-cam.com/video/08bci2ZjbTw/w-d-xo.html
This song would still be great if just repeated the first verse, but then it veers off in directions that are completely unexpected, yet sound perfectly natural. How is that possible?
Like many of us, I'd really like you to react to the second single of the album (release date 8/9) "I Wish I" - it's really different and still totally Gacharic Spin th-cam.com/video/-R6Nrr_omjE/w-d-xo.html
This reminds me a little of Faith No More for some reason. That's not a bad thing. I get the style. Feels to me like they are close to something special. Not yet there...
That transition into Oreo’s solo reminds me of show band R&B funk stuff like Tower of Power, and it’s equally as good as anything Dream Theater ever did. This song is an absolute gem.
It blew me away again today!
Def prog elements to this song🤟
I agree. And the fact that this song is just 4/4 from beginning to end with no tempo changes should be as a hint to Dream Theater that no, it's not the complex time-signatures that makes a song. This feels more prog to me than anything they've done in 20 years or so.
Arnold Scwarzenneger loves Gacharic Spin, He's always shouting "GET TO DA CHOPPER".😆
I like Arnold. But I think if he had the "Mindset" to put down any moves on this Gacharic Spin's hard-hitting, funky-chunk groove he'd twist himself into Vienna sausage. 🕺🌪

You get the feeling that they just do this for fun and they haven't really pushed their limits yet. So much untapped talent.
100%
KOGA and Misa are my favorite female bassists which have different playstyles. Probably I should remove the 'female' word.
On last sunday they played at osaka.
This is imho their best tune ever-and they've been great for a long time now. Funky and rockin and complex & sophisticated as all hell. They are the queens of controlled chaos.

This is what happens when you have classically trained musicians decide to create a rock band.
During my countless business trips to Japan, I have seen many concerts, Lovebites, Band-Maid, Bridear, many others, and even this crazy band.
They are really good in concert, they have great energy, they are festive and playful a bit like the Band-Maid, even if the music is different, they leave you a very positive feeling.
Their musical talent is truly impressive.

LOVE this track! What a JAM! Talent overload. The lead singer/performer looks like trouble...good trouble...but trouble nonetheless. Just waiting for the new album to drop and then it's download time. And...I'll just drop this here. Sokoninaru's - Tenohira De Odoru. You MAY recognize a certain riff. :) Thanks Ryan!
Very cool funky song. From the video and all that I have to assume they're talking about being yourself and being confident. Is that the mindset? The things I've heard from this band have been really fun and well written, so I do think they could be a band I put in my regular list of being listened to.
GS was my gateway back into japanese music. I grew up in the 80’s listening to X and Show-ya but had stopped while in college and rediscovered just how good Japanese rock/metal was in the 20teens ….
By the way… the Bass player is an ex-bikini model and if you’ve ever had the pleasure of seeing any of her prior work …. Hubba hubba …..
Great band - thanks for the reaction! That "implied heaviness" you mentioned I believe can also be applied to RHCP. It's an attitude and energy maybe more than an actual heavy sound. Great analysis. Cheers!
What a great damn song! I had a feeling you might dig it.
From what I understand, Hanna and F Chopper wanted to be in a band together, what was needed was a drummer....so Hanna learned drums...... Woah!
It was kind of static having one of the lead singers stuck behind drums, so they got a new drummer and Hanna now plays guitar.... WHOA!
@@nanakakitano9724 . Thank you for the clarification. In any case, Hana has become a beast as a drummer. I think she could do anything she decided she wanted to.
Bridears new song will Blow Your Mind.
I played this song for a friend. He asked, what genre?
My answer: every genre!
Brazilian Jutsu.
Imho, the best rock band on the planet!
Shout out to Infectious Grooves. My intro to Rob Trujillo as well.
Great song. Another band I need delve into.
Thanks for for the branch out too other bands. I enjoy ur reactions.
I've seen older stuff of theirs.... it's "sort of" heavy and at the same time not. But they are good at doing unexpected stuff. There are some "flavours" of other Japanese music but they are definitely their own sound.
This could be new prog rock. It sure covers a lot of ground in a unique way.
I can't help, but here they sound like good old Zappa at times.
Don't forget to check out their other new video I Wish I: th-cam.com/video/-R6Nrr_omjE/w-d-xo.html another masterpiece
And if you liked the funkyness here, also check out Miyavi x Daoko / Diner: th-cam.com/video/kjiSn0ug4oU/w-d-xo.html
It's a bit more on the pop side, but I'm quite sure that the guitar was a inspiration for Mindset, since Miyavi is quite huge in Japan.
Glad you gave Gacharic Spin another go they have been around for a good while now and they just don't get the love other groups get. I will admit a lot of their music is not for everyone they are all over the place which I really like personally. I know some ppl like a group to have the same sound every album, but I appreciate groups that just do what they want and make it all sound good. In this one I love Koga's bass all that funk she is dishing out just makes me think of some Parliament. I could really see Parliament and GS jamming together they both even do the crazy colorful outfits.
When I watch their live performances, Gacharic Spin instantly reminds me of Parliament/Funkadelic. They are so entertaining
I think for me it's not so much about having the same style all the time as long as you're doing something interesting with your sound. These ladies seem to definitely keep up with that.
Great reaction once more. I‘m glad you gave GS another try. Truly a great and interesting band. Short behind Band-Maid my other music love. Tomo-Zo is one of the most interesting and versatile guitar player from Japan. Highly underrated by many and like Kanamincho very unique and reminds of nobody else too. As a guitar player I would highly recommend their instrumental th-cam.com/video/VXAB83r0lbQ/w-d-xo.html
More please. nuff said.
Fucking love your reaction,. i felt the same way when i first heard this song
With the new singer, their creative thoughts have started to explode. React to I Wish I. It a song they released recently that sounds way different than this song.
Wanna blow your mind even further? Now do a reaction to "I Wish I," just released from the same album. You'll go insane!
This band has undergone several mutations. Watch them for a while and you'll get what I mean. They're really high energy. They're also basically Doll's Box with the singer from Unlucky Morpheus. The gal who was the drummer and singer now plays guitar and there is a new lead singer. As I said, watch them a number of times and you'll get it.
New album ll be great. Stay tuned 🔝
ARIGATO for the nice reaction!!
ANGIE(vo), F CHOPPER KOGA(bass), TOMO-ZO(guitar), HANA(drums), and OREOREONA(keyboard) are awesome.
Please react more and more!!
Acá en Colombia no escuchamos esta banda. Sin embargo yo a conocía desde que Armmy era cantante. Lamenté mucho su muerte. Pero cuando escuché Mindset, me comprometí a darle dos visitas por día durante un año, fantástica canción, fue una experiencia única, aún escucharla hasta hoy día, un remedio para la pandemia.
these lassies got the funk out
Just a request Ryan.Gacharic Spin:Forever I think really good song I hope you will like it 😉
I know about Infectious Grooves (is in the house!). Suicidal was my sh*t! Rocky George!!
Rewatching your reaction
infectious grooves were so good. so is GS.
Skill group.👍🎵
MAD BASS! 👊👊👊
"Let's do it again" 🤗
Awesome players. It appears it was time to change out their gear :D
If you haven't seen the live version of Mindset, check it out. It's more than worth it!
th-cam.com/video/lQFBwxoEnmg/w-d-xo.html
That was Absolutely incredible
@@RyanMear Isn't it just? I think they have a potential superstar in the making in young Angelina!
Somebody help me because this song is so fucking fire but every time I look for another Gacharic Spin song I come up a little disappointed...what should I listen to if I like this?
I wish I
Try Mirai Ronso for the most similar sound from the same album - th-cam.com/video/4LjTyVc5TuA/w-d-xo.html - GS can definitely be tricky if you like a particular sound, but personally I've come to love the variety
@@homegnome2429 Great, thank you!
Gacharic spin as a band has been around for a while now, and they seem to produce TONs of songs but came up empty in their early years. Then, a few years ago, Angie came in as their vocalist. And they start to put more Rock, or musical element more seriously into this band. I would say Angie actually saved this band from going disbanded.
🤘😎🤘 🔥🔥🔥
I'm so glad the OG japanese spaceship crashed on this shitty planet of ours! Lets enjoy until Mother Ship comes pick them up!
BTW, none of you usual j-rock reactors have done this one yet: th-cam.com/video/08bci2ZjbTw/w-d-xo.html
🔥❤🤘🏻
This song would still be great if just repeated the first verse, but then it veers off in directions that are completely unexpected, yet sound perfectly natural. How is that possible?
あなたのリアクションが好きです。
次は「moratorium」を聴いてみてください。
日本より
Like many of us, I'd really like you to react to the second single of the album (release date 8/9) "I Wish I" - it's really different and still totally Gacharic Spin th-cam.com/video/-R6Nrr_omjE/w-d-xo.html
Found a version of the video with English subtitles.
th-cam.com/video/yoI_kPPtxMY/w-d-xo.html
🤘😁🤘
moratoriumは、既に観られていますね、失礼しました。
では「CLANG」と、「FATE」を聴いてみてください。
noticing the CCs are useless. ROFL
This reminds me a little of Faith No More for some reason. That's not a bad thing. I get the style. Feels to me like they are close to something special. Not yet there...
please react to korean k rock group called Rolling Quartz song is called Blaze thanks
Might like "I Wish I" from the same album. Another newer release. Great stuff.
I think Japanese band stuff has basically high playing ability and Melody is awesome.
