Powerful Yoyoka Deep Purple Speed King Vand3rHorst Drummer React

[@vand3rhorst]

You all requested it, here it is my friends! Yoyoka's cover of Deep Purple's Speed King, A react done by yours truly. I hope you enjoy this as much as I enjoyed doing it! More to come very soon!! Thank you all :D

[@waynelynch9557]

She has original work " utopia " the one were she's playing the electronic roland drums was done in on take. The place she plays them looks like the same place her and tamu the drummer from nemaphilia played together. Thanks : D

[@KansaSCaymanS]

Enjoyed your reaction and analysis! Can’t get enough Yoyoka. Try her cover of the Stray Cats Rock This Town when she was 8. Maybe not the most technically difficult (other than she’s standing on one foot), but once again shows how she finds the groove of many genres, and if her sheer enthusiasm doesn’t put a big smile on your face, you need to see a psychiatrist. 😁

We're moving up the ladder here. Ian Paice >John Bonham. I can't believe you've never heard these songs. A drummer needs to know this band!

[@garymiller1380]

Started playing at two yrs old,played her 1st time at a public concert at 3 yrs old.

[@josh99678]

Great video love it

[@ThePallidor]

The way you react and comment is the best of all the Yoyoka reaction videos. The way you stop and cover the drumming mechanics of the juiciest parts is great. I'd watch reactions on all her videos. You deserve more views, good sir.

[@vand3rhorst]

Wow, this is such an honor! Thank you so much my friend :D I also am going to fix the audio levels. I had my mic turned WAYYYY up from a previous drum stream and failed to do an audio check. Thank you so much for these kind words :D

[@iFoneVids]

Now you understand why I preferred this cover than Burn. She definitely put the ROLL in Rock on this one. Those rolls and snare work are top notch. Awesome control and precision. Especially the last phrase. 3 comments though: 1) You paused too early. She did a cheeky thing at the end. 2) You were mostly blocking the snare view. And 3) You probably need a wireless mic. Btw, I thought this will be out on Monday but anyhoo, thank you for the reaction. More please. 👍🥁🤘🏼💥

[@vand3rhorst]

I absolutely need a wireless mic! I realized most of her vids are right-side oriented so I am switching sides to prevent the blocking of the drums now :D I'm gonna take a far more structured approach to these now. I've learned a few things to really make these **polished** Thank you for helping me to get better :D & I will absolutely let the videos 100% play through from now on. I realized I was missing key parts, just cause the song is over, doesn't mean the video si over! :D

[@klokanklokanovic780]

Hello Vand! Yoyoka will surprise you every day! Huge talent! Alex

[@alastairbishop2450]

Always great to see you react to, and explain, Yoyoka's playing. Your point about fundamentals is well made: she seems to have put in a lot of work on her core skills so she doesn't have to *think* about what she's doing, she just does it. This one really made me notice that she somehow manages to have complete independence between 2 hands and 2 feet, and yet she's always totally together and in the pocket. It's exhilarating to watch.

[@chrisegbertky]

Great commentary! You are so generous to continue to elevate our understanding of why Yoyoka is so great! Really enhances the experience for us fans. Would love your reaction to Murder by Numbers cover! Also her cover of 2+2=5 would be so very interesting to get your insight on. Love these Yoyoka videos!

[@user-mk3zc1bq8e]

She's the SPEED princess !!

[@ruudg3565]

Great reaction! Like your enthousiasme. Another young Japanese female drummer you might want to check out is Senri Kawaguchi. Despite her young age (now early twenties) she already performed on lots of jazz festivals. Her skills are amazing and I'm sure you will enjoy listening to her (and be impressed). A good one to watch for example is her “Adventure” solo (great video quality too).

RAIN BOW - Kill the King cover by YOYOKA the best drummer

[@OfficerPupp]

This Yoyoka video from when she was just 9 is just incredible. It doesn’t get the attention her Led Zeppelin, Deep Purple and RATM covers do (probably because we don’t know Unicorn in the West) but this blows my mind. Unicorn - Okashina Futari: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJSUqpSPZ5yIbcU

[@waynelynch9557]

I agree 100%

[@obbor4]

Much like Ian Paice, who has always impressed me more so than John Bonham with both his hand and foot speed. He and Terry Bozzio were the only two drummers who ever left me thinking that hey were the highlights of the show, which is pretty impressive considering I saw Ian with Deep Purple, and Terry with Frank Zappa, UK, and Jeff Beck! Yoyoka, of course, adds another drumming sensation that I can't look away from while she's playing. I've always been a guitar guy. This little one has turned my head, along with so many others now in her camp.

[@chrisparti]

Thank you so much for reacting to this video, I personal favourite part of this performance is the syncopated rim shot section... I guess you're saving Yoyoka's YYZ tribute to Neil Peart shortly after he passed away for later, I don't blame you lol..

[@vand3rhorst]

I totally am. It's gonna break me down. The first song I ever learned was Tom Sawyer. I miss him almost as much as robin williams and I never even knew them. The amount of influence though..haha it's rough. I promise I will do it soon.

[@Maya9396]

Hai, did you like the number? Rush, YYZ .The Police with drummer Stewart Copeland murder by numbers is totally different but a great drummer. By Yoyoka. See ya! 🙂🇳🇱

Willie Dixon? Surely you've heard of Willie Dixon. Willie Dixon invented the blues. Spoonful, Back Door Man, Smokestack Lightening and TONS of other songs were ALL written by Willie. Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Cream, The Doors, Led Zeppelin, all those guys, and many, many, more straight up stole Willie's music & lyrics. Led Zeppelin had to give him writing credits and a whole bunch of money because songs like Whole Lotta Love were complete rip-offs of Willie's tunes. I hope you've heard of Willie. I met him once down in Hollywood. Big old dude. Drunk as heck. It was at a Koko Taylor show back in "the day." I got his autograph. He's dead now. Good thing I met him before he died & not after. That would have been gross. Thanks for the excellent reaction video and keep up the good work. I'm already a subscriber (as you probably know). Deep Purple ROCKS. Ritchie Blackmore is otherworldly. He makes virtuosos like Satriani look like grade-school amateurs. Peace. Now that Yoyoka calls Cali home maybe we'll be able to see her play live. I sure hope so. She's a once-in-a-generation natural percussive prodigal musician.

[@michaeljuster67]

Did you hear her explanation to how her setup is for her video’s? In that, she says that, she will learn a simple song in 2-3 tries. A hard song; 4-5 tries. I mean - at least 5 brains. The one that I have, and one in each limb. Yoyoka is a freak of nature 😳👌👌
