Ok. Let's be real folks. Forget about this being a girl. Forget that she is Japanese. Forget that she is technically proficient. Hell, forget how young she is (and her videos go back a few years!) All good, all true. But Yoyoka's ability to so smoothly lock into a complex groove is ridiculous. Her ability to make it look so freaking easy is otherworldly, Her ability to competently change styles (Rush, Zeppelin, Tower of Power, Steely Dan, etc.) is also amazing.
But above all of that, I have never seen a drummer who seems to enjoy what they're doing this much. Her love of music is infectious. Even when she shows off here and there, it never comes off as arrogant or showboating.
What a beautiful way to spend a Sunday morning. Music transcends everything.
I could not agree more! Every time i'm amazed! Special her control and perfection of her feet. Look, it's almost unreal!
I taught public school music for 32 years and I have witnessed a few students that exhibited astounding innate talent, but this performer has captivated my attention to the point that I simply have no words to describe the joy I felt while watching her seemingly effortless ability. Thank you for sharing.
Well said sir! YOYOKA transcends just drumming.
Words can't do your drumming justice.
Wow just wow.
Effortlessly performing!
I too am in AWE! There are way easier songs to master than Mr. David Garibaldi a master of the drums! WOW!
This is just shocking. Having first began playing drums forty years ago, I am simply stunned by this seemingly simple performance. It's as if she was the originator of this drum track. Incredible.
....as if she was the originator.....
💯 🎯 ✔️ That is absolutely the core. That's why she is so special.
What is hip? Yoyoka is hip.
She Came To Play...
Definitely!! ..
She iss! . . :-)
💕👍✌️🖖🎶
AGREED!!!! 10000%
Hipper than hip! ❤
That sleeve pull just before the bridge kills me!!!!!!!
Check out Kalonica Nicx, she will certainly put a smile on your face
Yeah, she pulled it up so subtly one wouldn’t even notice but, it was as casual as her playing!!! Continue with your AWESOMENESS GIRRRRRL!!! Yoyoka RULES! 😵💫
I love it when the young cats discover the old grooves
U got the skills, U got the rhythm, U got the beat, U got a long and successful career ahead of you. Been watching you for a long time. You deserve your success.
I simultaneously laugh and cry when witnessing this phenomenal performance.
I hear you!
glad I'm not the only one
I'm really glad you made this comment because I was about to make a similar one sure to be downvoted with same sentiment. I was going to say something like "With all due respect, I simultaneously love and hate this. I'm probably almost 4x her age and I will NEVER be this good. It's just not fair!".
Seems like yesterday we were all saying what a great drummer she is for her age. Now? Just a phenomenal drummer. Period.
That started around age 9
Amen! Downright phenomenal.
The last several videos, especially, have really shown off her skills. Seems like she has settled into Oakland pretty well and is really excelling. Just awesome!!
@LGHRat that's what I see too!
That’s what I was thinking, too!
I see pure joy on her face! She makes it look so easy and it is far from it!!
That is one solid blast of positive energy. Stay Funky Yoyoka!!!❤
Yoyoka's brain computer is enormous. How she remembers all those complicated kicks ? Been following her since the first videos back when Yoyoka was just 6 - 7 yo . Amazing progress and she's truly a genius drummer. Great work ! Way to go !
Personally, I hope she N E V E R gets tired of drums. A musician does not have to be a multi instrumentalist.
I'm just sad, that I will not be able to see what will become of her in her later years, because by then I will be dead.
I don't think she memorised them as kicks as such. More of remembering the entire groove/fill pattern, the feel and the sound.
I never cease to be amazed by how effortlessly she covers almost any genre. 🤯👍😎
KansaSCaymanS: You are so right.
Have you seen the Carpenters cover yet ???
YOYOKA... getting down with the funky jazz! That was hip right there...
Hello Jim Morrison . she met David Garibaldi . she information
Top tier professional drummer in my opinion. She does it all so well. Age doesn't even matter at this point, Yoyoka is an excellent drummer.
Wow! Feel, groove, time, energy, technicality…everything. I’ve been drumming pretty seriously (semi pro) for about 40 years and have seen and heard some seriously talented musicians ….Yoyoka’s talent is exceptional. Always a delight.
I've waited all my 71 years to play with a drummer like that. Funk me!
Not only can she play it, she feels it!!!!!!👍🏾
That girl should be a top session player now!
I think she’s now studying in Oakland School of Music and Arts
She’s on her way
OMG, you have no idea how happy you just made me with this video. I whooped so loud I scared my dog! I saw Tower of Power do this song back in the early 70s, one of the best performances by any band I've ever seen. They were so much FUN! And now you're in Oakland, steeped in funk and I'm sure you must know that Modern Drummer magazine voted Tower of Power's 1974 album, "Back to Oakland" one of the most important recordings for drummers to listen to. Have you met Dave Garibaldi? I hope this means that we can expect more funk from you in the days to come. Thank you for this! OK, I'm going back to listen to it again. (And again.) ♥♥♥
When the band speeds up or slows down she's right there! It's more like she's playing ON the recording rather than playing along to it. Phenomenal!
The best female drummer living on the Earth today.
Yoyoka, you are such a badass, and one of the most adorable people on this planet! "What is Hip" was absolute perfection, and a joy to watch! So cool, confident and passionate! You are such a treasure🤗. Well done Yoyoka!!?
Maturity shows in the tone of the snare. Big fan for several years. Still wave my imaginary sticks at the beggining and end.
I love the perfectly timed bass drum hit and sleeve pull at 1:50.
I'm absolutely speechless after hearing this. I've played it over and over. I'm surprised the neighbors haven't complained yet!
You could just slot this in place of Garibaldi's track and few would notice.
Fantastic!
You applied your signature power with no loss in funk! As astounding as your "Burn" performance. Just fantastic.
I find such a young player covering an artist like David Garibaldi FAR more impressive than doing soulless blast-beats. Garibaldi is a Master of Funk and I am SO glad my crusty old drum instructor got me into him back in the 70s. When you play funk with other players and it falls right in the pocket it's a magical thing indeed. Truly a well-performed play-along by Yoyoka.
a master drummer he is.
@@jowsmith1904
SHE
@@PL1810 it!!
Confidence and Excellence! The look on her face says a lot as she enjoys the TOP funk and groove. David Garibaldi would be proud!
Her syncopation skills are other-worldly. Such a tremendous talent, the Mighty Yoyoka strikes again!
She's good enough (or better ) to play with anyone or band right now. Better than a lot of so called famous drummers right now.
Playing live, with other players, is different from playing along with a track. Here, there is one time sense: the track. In a band, you have to meld three or four other time senses to create one sound. On the flip side, being able to hang with a track with that much precision is difficult, also. Outstanding!
@@davidpetrie3793 Yoyoka has proven in numerous live performances that she isn't a closet phenomenon.
@@gregorytrotter6657exactly. David is ignorant
Garabaldi is one of the greatest funk drummers on the planet. Yoyoka plays well in his space. Remarkable!
There probably isn't a single band in all of Japan that hasn't offered this brilliant girl a job. They must be breaking down her door.
Even the camera swings along.
Have seen Yoyoka in many videos with a great display of technical ability that is both powerful and in-the-pocket groovy, but this cover of David Garibaldi's work (ghost snare notes and all) shows a versatility that has NO limits. KUDOS!!!
Doing David proud...tear it up young lady!!!!!!!!! That got the Godfather James Brown dancing in the afterlife!!!
聴いてるだけでHAPPYになれる🎶😊
広角で寄ったアングルも新鮮で良いですね😆👍️✨
Yes! Yes! YES! Now that Yoyoka's in the East Bay she's rocking the Tower! YOU GO GIRL!!!!
You are sooooooo good!! I've been playing since I was 6 and I'm 69 now. Been touring for the last45 years.
. Still am and I've seen many many drummers come and go and you young lady are a gift from God to the music world!! Im honored to be part of your membership family. Thank you.
Good OnYou DJ!!!....
A gift from Akifumi and Rie not from your invisible agent.
懐かしい ! 若い頃聴いていた Hip Hop だ Yoyoka さんも人生二回目だから思い出しながら楽しそうにやってるね
😄
ライドシンバルのナットも楽しくて踊ってる
The Google Translator obviously can't handle regular Japanese, sir. Almost every time it understands Yoyoka as a male. Can't you please very carefully choose your words to not let the Translator get on the wrong track? (I tried the same with the Translator but in two different languages. If I chose short and no tricky sentences the computer got it right.)
What is hip? Yoyoka!
This gets better with every viewing. I have to lie down, afterwards.
WHAAAAAAAT???!! I haven’t done any hallucinogenic substances for YEARS, but I think I’m having several (hallucinations) of them every time I watch another video of Yoyoka!!!! Nope , she’s FOR REAL!!!!! 🤯Can’t wait for her next! I’ve thoughts of Billy Cobhams Quadrant Four. Whaddya think people?
A true freak of nature !!!
Her finness,feel,timing,groove,fills etc...
Need I say more ??
She is beyond just a good drummer. she is very intelligent with an excellent memory for every little change and all of the odd timings. she has really become a total pro drummer that can can play almost anything style. but I want to see if over time she develops her own style.
I've watched this so many time.blown away by how awesom this drum track is.💐
Wow the young kid can play! TOP is my favorite band, and he is the best at drums I’ve seen, WOW AMAZING
Surprised noone has pointed out that she is a young woman
Who else is watching the wing-nut on the ride cymbal slowly back out?
dancing
Damn Girl...I've been playing drums professionally for 50 years. I'm stunned. I would love to hear you live. I'll start searching. Oh, I use to be in a band with Tower's keyboard player, Roger Smith. I really don't have any pull but those guys are as chill they get. Let me know if I can help. Patrick
Yoyoka is HIP!!
Sooo good!❤
What I love so much about Yoyoka is that she simply plays really really really good…no overplaying, no unnecessary chops. Just very very good grooves. I hope one day u will play on one of my projects.
もう以前のロックドラマーの粋を超えて、なんでも自分のものにしている。それでいて、サウンド・グルーブはよよかオリジナル。しかし何よりも音楽を楽しんでいるのが最高。
Yoyoka is a marsupial. She lives in the pocket! Doing TOP and DG proud.
OMG girl you're so grown-up what do you 13 now WoW !!!
Kids grow so fast 🤔 you're not a kid no more, here almost all the way grown up & you sure are beautiful young lady & very talented.
I just love seeing & hearing you you are so good at the drums.
😺👉💯🕯️
年齢も性別も、、国境の何も無いところに連れて行ってくれて有難うございます。最初の動画からファンですが、ココに来てのタワーオブパワーにもやられております💕
そして、
ドライもウェットも何もかもを手に入れられて、funkyまで手に入れられたのですね✨素敵です。
40代です、いつもいつも元気もらっています🎉 これからもどうかずっとこのままで.. 応援しています❗️
She makes me feel better ❤
SHE IS LIKE THE BRUCE LEE OF DRUMS HER FOCUS IS INHUMAN, SHE'S SPECIAL, HER PARENTS MUST BE SO PROUD!
my sentiments exactly she has become water,
Endless joy! Seriously, one of the top drummers in the world. Yoyoka's covers are always spot on. Looking forward to seeing Yoyoka on the bigger stage.
Power, grace and technique in balance, and radiating from her center of gravity.
😃👍
Without researching, I had asked myself why someone would move to Oakland to study music. And I think my question was just answered with an exclamation point.
David Garibaldi is a phenomenal drummer and was an influence of one of my other favorite drummers, Adam Deitch. I have a suspicion that Yoyoka is going to master the Oakland Stroke in just a few days.
Excellent take Yoyoka! Great job! Awesome choice of music as well.
great funk.. this is definitely hip👏👏👏🤩
Her focus is insane
Great camera angles add to the amazing dynamics. Very hip. 🎉
Awesome! Yoyoka you have always played funk so effortlessly and such a great song! I love this!!❤
The joy! Too funny. They add to the original with such abandon and creativity. Beautiful.
It’s hard to comprehend the coordination Yoyoka has plus the memory it takes to play these songs… mind blown 💥🐰🥁🐰🥁🐰
We are watching a star evolve right in front of us.
@@Blayze1017 She's already a star in my mind.😊
Mr Friend, YOU ARE ONE BAD ASS SOULFUL DRUMMER! THAT WAS AWESOME ON EVERY LEVEL! You nailed it and David Garibaldi is not easy to master let alone emmulate BUT YOU DID IT!!! Peace & Gratitude to you... I bow to you sister!!!
Ms.
Lots of people in the comments don’t realize that Yoyoka has been a funk fan for a long time. Watch her covers Anderson .Paak, Bruno Mars, and Jamiroquai.
I would pay money to see her. Such a talent.
She's always had the rock stuff down, but this opens up a whole new world. She's got the feel and dynamics down, like the way she gives the guitar some space at the beginning of the short solo.
She even pulls up her sleeve in rhythm!
よよかさん素敵な動画今日もありがとうございます👏👏👏朝からノリノリで聴かせてもらいました❣️心地よいリズムがまだ耳に残ってます👂よよかさんの動画に出会って以来、なぜかどんな音楽を聴くのにもドラムの音をつい追いかけて聴くクセがついてしまいました😊もちろん他の楽器も大好きです👌でもここまでドラムを意識したことがありませんでした こういう楽しさを味わさせてもらって嬉しいデス❗️
Fantastic !!
I love when she does something that seems to amuse her and she cracks that big smile!
David Garibaldi should see this! He would be extremely impressed with Yoyoka’s skills🥁 😊
She could sub for the band.
@@robertdowler3347 She could sub for just about any band in the world at this point.
On her Facebook page, she posted back on March 31st that they met.
glad to see her doing some funk!
What a thing ~ Oakland Funk ! Really like the snare work on this one. Some smiles of satisfaction.
From one drummer to another that was absolutely awesome!!!
Damn..😮 I love watching musicians smile as they play... You can feel their joy...girl got skills
She's just as comfortable playing funk as she is rockin out !!!!
The 70’s called and want Yoyoka! This the beat I have been looking for!!!!!
よよかちゃん
なんでも叩けるね❗️
素敵だ❣️
I remember when you were just a little girl... Time flys.
You've become a world-class drummer! Well done!
me too, i adore this kid.
Growing up as a brass player, I had a real love for Tower of Power. Never gave the rhythm section the attention it deserved. Thank you Yoyoka, for your illuminating demonstration of the fun in funky. Superb energy and a joy to watch.
Maybe my favorite comment ever... Good on Ya!!!!!
David Garibaldi... the guy was a funk machine. This does his legit justice!
btw ive heard that rimshot at 1:20 and i love it
Man if she hit that bridge any harder they'd have to buy it a tombstone.
Wow! Perfection Yoyoka! Plus it looks like you enjoy the 'hip' beat of that song! Bravo! 👏❣
Getting into my favorite kind of music!
One of the most Epic..Iconic songs..By one of the most Magical..Mythical band... by one of the most Legendary drummers of this century!!!! What is Hip??? YOYO IS HIP!!! HAPPY..HAPPY..HAPPY.
Yoyoka's got the funk!
Best ghost note of the day. Arms-rolling.
Let me tell ya...... this drummer has some nice chops. I'm 62 and have been playing since I'm 9. I can certainly tell feel. This person has a great future. Good job.
Fantastic! You really have the feel of the music. I saw Tower of Power back in 1974 in Waterbury, Connecticut. Great show.
Here’s your homework assignment. Call Ellen right now. Tell her to learn the bass line. This is her groove. She’ll learn it quick. For extra kick contact Charlotte and have her learn some funk style guitar. Havoc can help her with that. I see why Ellen likes you now. You’re really good! 😀
Born to groove
Burning 🔥 hot soul set of funky drumming 🥁
