[@patrickperegrino1219]

I'm really new to Senri, so it's a joy for me to watch and catch up with this phenom. This was just too much fun.

[@WavePotter]

[@markfrost9826]

Thanks for posting!! This is amazing. Two of my very favorite drummers :)

[@oskisnutz]

Same here...I've seen Marco live a few times already. Seeing Senri live is very high on my bucket list.

[@troybratcher3563]

@@oskisnutz they both are pretty awesome, given her physical stature Senri can hold her own with anyone her size without question, but size arm length and power are a definite advantage, myself I just love watching amazing drummers that make it look so easy and me being a musician knowing its not.

Senri Kawaguchi is a phenomenal drummer. She was voted top 500 drummer by DrummerWorld Magazine when she was only 13. If you haven't seen these yet, I would recommend her rendition of "Stratus", a difficult jazz piece written by jazz drummer Billy Cobham. She performed it at a French Jazz Festival when she was only 18. There's a version of it on her official YT channel as well as DrummerWorld's. It's like she's an octopus on that kit! There's also great video from a COVID stream where she performed two of her originals, "Onyx" and "Real Life", on a YT user called [Okku]'s channel. "Real Life" seems to be a song that I've seen her perform with a lot of other great young Japanese drummers in duel performances and it seems to be a badge of honor if another drummer can play it. Okku also has other performances by her on the channel. Senri is also the defacto leader of Jazz Avengers, which is a collection of exceptional young Japanese female musicians. They have their own channel worth exploring also. Finally, on the subject of Jazz Avengers, their bassist Juna Serita is a great young Jazz/Funk bassist. She's also on a journey to attempt to master different instruments like sax, piano, drums and guitar, which she documents on her own YT channel. I definitely recommend listening to Juna's original piece called "Hunter", the 10 minute live performance from Tokyo Blues Alley that's available on her channel. The performance includes other musicians from Jazz Avengers (without Senri) and "Hunter" has one of the filthiest main bass lines I've heard in a while. There's a lot of great young performer s in Japan and they're playing some of the most creative music around, imo. Hope you get a chance to explore them.

It's amazing how different the tone of the two drummers on the same kit.

Natural talent 😊😊

[@PauloCarnaxide]

Master drummer, congratulations!

[@placidian]

That's awesome! =D

[@agustinbrogliatti9739]

these things are emotional

[@stevenr5149]

I wonder how hard it is to jam on another drummer' kit--who is much taller and has longer reach. Senri made it look easy--and sound great.

[@oskisnutz]

Much, much taller. I'd bet he's almost got two feet on her lol

[@petefuentes9424]

Yes , to just sit at someone else's kit and be able to improvise like that , she is brilliant

[@juhrrherran8105]

Great japan talent

[@mtvmusicoldschoolhistoryfr8731]

Senri Kawaguchi is Great & Epic on Drum's. The other person is Great as well never herd of him though Aristocrats??. Hope to do something like that with my 10 year old niece she can play Drum's she is self taut, by ear the fist thing she ever already new, was a one kick pedal groove on a one kick pedal. Drum solo battle would be heap's fun i love Drum's, i already know she is going to be epic like Senri, when she get's to her level of Drumming :-). She is already amazing now so when she get's to Senri she we be amazing & Iconic. Drum's are Iconic:-).

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

The fellow behind the drumkit is Marko Minnemann. He's imho one of the best fusion drummers in the world. He did an audition for Dream Theater several years ago. Thank god he did'nt got the job. He belongs to the Aristocrats.

[@MarttiSuomivuori]

I did not realize she actually is that good.
