some people wondering , there is some other instrumental but u don’t see on the video and why ? . We are live-recording keyboard , drums , sax , bass . but also playing backing truck which has guitar , other horn etc ( the instruments u don’t see on the video ) . MiMi is hearing the click and the truck during performance in ear 👂 . So we can much with the truck too .
..Tried to break it down for non-musician people but sorry if it’s hard to understand .🥲🙏
Excellent’
Love it! And great job explaining the click track to non-musicians. Anytime you hear instruments you don't see folks, it's a click track, often just called a "track" or "playing (singing) to track".
Well, I guess she means backing tracks that are pre-recorded and played back togther with a click. The click gives the drummer an accoustic guidance that she plays along with to keep the band and the pre-recorded tracks in sync.
You girls are absolutely amazing, so funky! Love it! 😚👌👱♀️
..this is so good..well done😀👌
At 75 it's refreshing and nostalgic to see young people today making the genre of groove that launched my career as a jazz-funk musician 50 years ago.
Thought you were gonna say they are appropriating blacks 😂
@@thatdude3977 Yes, but that wouldn't be the case. This is clearly 'white people juzz-funk', more like Tower Of Power, Weather Report and so on.
@@Arkturbettel blacks made all modern music!!
Funk never left. It just got mangled by rappers for a while
And that's the thing .. Asia has kept up the legacy, while America has moved on to really shitty, regressive music
No overplaying, no overproduction. Sounds free and cool. I love it.
I love this, too😲.
Tight😂
Jst wnna say exactly
ya but would you pay for it and bump it in your car??
Me too.
I'm old school and listening to ladies jam and playing funk the way it was back in the day, took me back when Ohio Players, Earth, Wind and Fire. YOU GO GIRLS ❤🎉🎉❤❤
B
Took you back what???Your comment makes no sense....

@@chrisholder4978do you speak English? Basically he's nostalgic about the beat because it's old school,🤔
Stop lying! They are no where near an average HOUSE BAND. Don't ever insult BLACK INOIC MUSICIANS! They are okay. You have to do more than attempt to REPLICATE someone else's sound. Where is their own MUSICAL STYLE? We don't need and are not looking for what we already got. ANY musician can COPY! GOOD MUSICIANS have their own signature sound! JAZZ AND FUNK comes with an inner SPIRIT OF SOUL that comes from the BLUES and SPIRITUAL BLACK AMERICAN MUSIC we don't accept copy music. FIND A STYLE LAIDES not authentic!
These ladies are no joke. They're a talented group.
Bassist is straight funky and smooth with it.
I like jokes.
This takes me back to the 70's 🇿🇦🇿🇦🕺🕺
Of course - like the first Chicago - Albums 🎉
FACT!
I'm hip!
Heck ya.
Seasoned D J Here!
This is my favorite song right now…
Smooth Jazz at is Finest!
All of these Musicians are Top Guns!
F smooth jazz this is stone cold funk
amazing saxo
I agree here comes another beautiful part of instrumental music 🎼🎹🎸🥁🎷🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
These lady’s are old souls This could have been right out out of the fifties, sixties, seventies, loving it
I had the pleasure of seeing some women play blues in a smoky old blues lounge in Taipei. Ill never forget it. I felt like i was in a movie.
Maybe you were.
Jesus umm wow .
It's jazz, soul
Sounds amazing! Do you know who the performers were? I’d love to check them out
I love it and I wasn't there ❤😢🎉💖 😂😂😂
Listening to Japanese pop-rock-jazz-funky-electro music for 40+ yrs. And I always find something new and exciting. Bravissimo, young ladies!
These women are PHENOMENAL! WHOO! Each lady is amazing on her instrument! That drummer is out of this world, the saxophonist is crazy amazing, the keyboardist is gifted beyond measure, and the bassist is totally in the groove! Wowza! You ladies have the gift and soul of FUNK! ❤🎉 BRAVO!!!
How many times have I played the intro 😮 well check it out when she the drummer is spotlighted the expression on her face says she's the boss.
Or is this AI?
Apa khabar sihat tk pagi ni saya tak dapat nak buat apa pun kita boleh buat apa pun kita tak tau lagi bila nak buat kerja dulu ya sayang dah sampai ke tempat biasa lah tu nak buat apa pun tak tahu lah 😮😮
Daaamn! I'm viking do hard rn! Not to mention these artists are so eeeaaasssyyy on the eyes🤩
Absolutely! I love em! Give us more!😅
people dont realize how difficult it is to put a band together with different creative juices flowing, its nearly impossible to do, great job ladies!!! 🥰😇
This is Not gender based. Just people who love the soul of music. They clearly do.
Slamming music can be around for years and no NEVER come across it!!! So glad I came around this joint!!!! SLAMMIN!!!
You can say that again🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 5th April 2024.
These Beautiful GENIUSES Make Med Very Proud To See & Hear Them Grooving This Magnificently!
Dam, took me 2 years to come across these talented ladies. Playing what I used to hit the jazz clubs for, much love.
These beautiful people are from the future. So graceful and refreshing.
I stumbled upon this doing a search for some new jazz music and found this group. These young ladies are phenomenal! Really like the cool jazz / funk sounds from the 70's!
That sax girl ain't no joke
All four of them ain't no joke🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 5th April 2024.
Bruh
Yeah, the word that came to my mind was "fierce".
She's a bad Mama Jama! She's got that funk in her bones!!!!
These Women Is Something To Deal With. They Are Getting Down LOVE ❤️ It.
This is FUNKING awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!! That sax player is from another planet LOL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This whole band is outstanding!!!!!!!!!!
Saxophone 🎷 ?
@@CarnivorousSwarm There's no trumpet visible here but definitely sounds like one on the track.
@@CarnivorousSwarmthe trumpet is on the orchestra hits from the keyboard
Two different sax tracks and a trumpet.
Trumpet no
Damn, They Went Back To The 60's & 70's With This!!
Great. These young women have the chops for some heartfelt 70s feel jazz/funk fusion. Right on Girls!
Just plain awesome. The bass work, the Sax , the key board, the percussion by a Japanese Girl band is one of the best & classy renditions in the world. God Bless these musical souls
First class funk and that added with such beautifully stunning ladies? I'm sold on this!
Old 70's stuff like the CTI label produced in the 70s with artists like Grover Washington. Gotta love it. Good going gals.
These young ladies are phenomenal. I like the still of their music. I could listen to it all day. Loving it. Stay original. Stay original. ❤❤
I could listen longer than they could play ! Loop it
The sax solo in this performance is one of those rare feats of musical craft where you find it more and more brilliant the longer you listen to it.
I guess you never listen to Brecker play this is like bubble gum funk
@@victorcerabino5319
A hot chick jamming is always prettier sounding to the eyes
🤣 original commentor has no experience in sax. She was good, not great. Her lung capacity needs to improve, her scratchy points were an extension of just that. That is the only quirk I have with her. She will be great with a bit more practice.
My thoughts exactly..
She was great, flaws and all.
I close my eyes, and I hear George Duke on keyboards, Tom Fowler on Bass, Chester Thompson on Drums, Napoleon Murphy Brock on Saxophone. And I open my eyes up and see young people just making wonderful music jump and groove again, regardless of the year.
My goodness. These youngladies r jamming.Appericiate a real artist with real live music. Yall go girls👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿💯💯💯💯💚💚💚💚❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
I can't walk and listen to this song at the same time 😅
WOW 🤯 she is the goddess ofsax❤
More Mimi please 😮😊😂❤
Thought you were one of those butthurt blacks 😂 gate keeping music from other humans 😂
I really love this song
17 years old in 1977....played alto saxophone in schools band/jazz band. Lived this era and though I am a total metal, head banging oldster, I completely dig this sound!
Yeah. Me too. When your birthday? These girls are insanely powerful.
@@davidhaysbuckley 4/8/60'. Be retiring on THAT day 2022! 👍🤘👍🤩
I think I can honestly say most of us appreciate good music, we don't care who it is that is doing it. We just admire the artistry
This is one of the greatest songs ever. R and B and Funk owes its existence to Sly and The Family Stone. They’re influence is everywhere from R&B to Funk, to Jazz to Rap. Sly you are the originator and never duplicated Master
James brown preceeded Sly 1961 with "think" and a great deal of original funk came out of Louisiana by The Meters 1965. Sly didn't emerge until 1968 with their 1st which was around the same time Funkadelic started.
Jazz Crusaders
Groove knows no race or nationality, and I do love how it unites us.
You can say that again🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 5th April 2024.
Ok sure
መዝሙር
I beg to differ
Then stop bringing it up. I hadn't noticed til your comment😢
The older I get the more I see that everything runs in cycles. Case in point. I old enough to have experience Funk in the 70's, and low and behold it's a thing again.
Speaking as a pretty nonstop funk aficionado, its never really stopped being a thing. RUclips's simply made it easier to find it after it stopped getting radio play. Living in there states since the 90's I've always managed to find healthy funk scenes, especially in the southeast like Georgia
And it's more polished this time round... At least as I see it
My gues is that in the 70s you didn’t find a group of Japanese girls playing funk
@Big bankie Bobby Still right.
@Big bankie Bobby get nine haircuts zoomer
The way she dances with and plays the saxophone is unworldly. How beautiful. I love how the layer of sounds. Thank you for showing us funk as a team of women musicians!
That Sax is bigger than she is and she handling her business
Totally agree make you get in the grove
Straight to the point : this band's got a Fkn' good vibe.
Tx for the trip !
This is some of the best 70's funk I have ever heard. These ladies are fabulous. The one playing the saxophone just brings down the house!
Agreed. Except id say more like 90's
Yeah, thank God for copying Black people.
I totally love it love it love it. Beautiful ladies, respectfully dressed , no heavy makeup, no tattoos showing. And talented to the Max. May God continue to bless you, and thank you for keeping this genre of music alive.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is an odd comment
@@corbanzo2666 that's an odd picture on your profile. 🤔
No it's not.
Wow!! The more I hear Japanese musicians, the more I respect them. They studied Salsa, jazz and now funk and have practically perfected it. Amazing!! I wouldn’t be surprised if there was a big band out there somewhere. I’m looking for this band when I’m there in January of 2023.
This is so awesome 👌 👏 👍 ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ They laid back like is ain't nothing but rehearsal. They got much much more music skills than you know. Great driving music in the mountains. ❤❤❤❤😂😂🎉
been in some jams like this back in the '70s. these girls play with old school soul. loved this
I never get tired listening to that bass, and how she plays, it ties the whole thing together!
What a challenge you listening to them and admiring there beauty at the same time! It's mesperrising!
Absolutely! My good listening friend!
She has a hair scrunchy on the headstock to keep the buzzing to a minimum. She knows what she's doing! Hountou ni jinsei desu.
no
Bassist's groove is so brilliant.
agreed ... and that's the girl who posted the video!
Juna Serita
All very beautiful ladies too I wonder if this tune is available on Amazon prime or something..👍🏾
Woman on the Drums on Bass on Sax...that,s the simply true Emanzipation so simple !
Shouted that Out all my Life :)))
THIS IS FIRE!!!! Too damn funky for their own good!!! Respect to these girls for layin down this DOPE track!
These girls is jamming! Straight tribute to the 70's jazz funk! Keep jamming ladies!💯🔥👍🏿
I just discovered this group on my Playlist and been listening to it on replay for ten minutes. Absolutely phenomenal. The sax player is..well I have no words cert one of the best I've ever heard in my 57 years. Consider me a fan for life
I'm one of Stevie Wonders biggest fans and I have to say, you guys have done yourselves proud! Excellent ❤
yes yes yes yes
I know I'm not the only person who's noticed the importance of face when playing electric guitar or bass
in addition to her beautifully funky chops Juna Serita plays with subtle great face
I'm jealous of anyone who gets to shake it up or shake it off or just shake it shake it shake it on this band's dance floor
Well I have to say this is one of my favorite recent finds. Thanks for sharing
Девчули! Какие же вы классные! ) Столько лёгкости, воздуха, энергии!
Это просто чудесно!
Спасибо!
That sax flow hits hard
Gosh I love these grooves! Drums dry and steady but stylish, a solid base complimenting the drums and driving the song, a simple funky guitar and keys, and a killer saxophone. Absolutely beautiful!
🔥🔥🔥🔥 That drummer is freaking awesome. She keeps that groove together great players.
The tenor sax player is perfect in every way.
These kids have soul built into their very…..well….Soul😊
Brilliant
Super smooth groove, ladies! I really liked the saxophone soloing because it didn't get too screechy and high pitched like most tenor players seem to insist upon doing. Good show!
The anti auto tune. Young people appreciating the genres and actually learning instruments and striving to be the best at what they do.
Good music and great musicians have always been around. But you won’t hear them on the radio! Recording companies don’t want the masses listening to great music, they pay the radio stations to play that pop trash. Why? A good question
long live manualtune
Thats Japan bra~
you so corny
@@alphagt62PROFIT
The saxophone is killing it! Outstanding performance from all of you ladies!
Such an elegant groove with ZERO overplaying or showing off, flawless
Holy Moly! I just discovered this group by accident yesterday and oh man, I'm lost for words! These are 4 incredibly talented young musicians who have the funk in their souls. This is top level funk at the highest level! Jeez these girls play like veterans who've been playing this kind of groovy funk for 20+ years. This is a truly extraordinary group and I have to say I'm totally hooked now to their incredible sound! Pure genius!!
Not to mention they're gorgeous 🥰 But I too just stumbled across this group & WOW👍🏿
@@MrBigR928 I totally agree with you. They're all gorgeous! What a combination! Super talent, and great looks!
Unbelievable gorgeous and talented 👍
Ditto 👍🎶💖 if you haven't looked, go check Juna's playlists. She's done a lot of excellent stuff.
This is such a funky groove and outstanding group of musicians! From New Orleans, Louisiana, I can really appreciate the Funk!
Funky, a nice groove, and swing...And the bass player is really cute! 😊
You ladies smashed that ball out of the park 👏 💪 🙌 👌 💯 😊!!! Excellent performance 👏 👌 👍 😊!!! Very well done 👏 ✔️ 👍 😊!!!!
This is really awesome. And I love the fact that "bass face" just seems to be a part of music.
I am really impressed, after 50 years listening and playing Jazz Music I must say - the best Japanese music since Sadao Watanabe. Really great!!! Greetings from Austria
What about Hiroshima?????
Some cool musicians come out of Japan, if you haven’t come across Kanade Sato i can tell you you’re in for a treat. Plenty here on RUclips abouut her.
Her father was a drummer & she started playing at the age of 4, now a pro drummer.
Isnt it amazing that no matter what language you speak, music like this, everyone understands. Very talented ladies
Yeah buddy! True THAT!
Music is a human experience. So.e ignorant people gate keep music though 😂 like blacks
You can say that again🙂Regards, Michael M. Kamau, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa, 5th April 2024.
The keyboard part is what makes this song funky ... its awesome ... all the ladies are awesome, but for this song the keyboard part is what makes it for me.
At 3:14 my soul left my body and ran down the street yelling LONG LIVE THE FUNK!!! Much love from the birthplace of jazz New Orleans Louisiana ❤️ APPROVED
I have to thank my lucky stars for bringing me here today. You ladies are utterly amazing!
Thank you so much for sharing this.
A master class in soloing by the keyboard player and saxaphonist, the way they tie their solos to the groove.
The 70s had it all. I could feel the Funk and RnB when I was a kid. I loved to dance to it. I was groovin this morning to Funk Radio. I was dancing in the first few bars.
These Ladies are Sublime! This I could listen to for hours and would keep me on the dance floor all night in my younger days through the 70's and 80's. Gotta run down more of their stuff, thanks for posting this Gem
no sublime isn't a funk band
Amazing riff! Wow, such young people, playing this Funk Jazz is SO inspiring. Wow,...wonderful!
Does flute and horns equal jazz?
You obviously don''t know what funk is.
Oh, Yes! This is it!! So thrilled to see and hear youth do it the right way, and doing it SO well...artistry and performance.
High Compliments! Terrific, smooth, enjoyable...and SO right. Wishing you so much success. Thank you!
Congratulacions to the Group Juna Serita !!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
In the bass very beautifull girl !!
❤❤❤❤
Bkack R&B/Funk music will never die! It's universal! Awesome!
They are right for each other, I love their sound. It has that 70's jazz groove.
Love that Jazzy ,Bluesy ,Neo Soul structural undertones. Great Composition Ladies. Thank you.
Thanks!
Wow! Such a well ballenced performance! Extremely ear pleasing! Not too much and not too little of anything! A smooth meshing of chords, instruments and melody line! Great production both visually and melodically!! Loved your laid back intensity! 😀😃😄👍👍👍👍👍👍
The saxophone player was A+++....Top Notch!! I think she is the Crown Jewel here, altho the other musicians were Excellent as well! This band is Super amazing and Super Talented!! Tremendous musical cohesion and beautiful unity...Brava Brava Bravissima!! 👏👏👏⚘️🌻⚘️🌻⚘️🌻⚘️🎶💃🎶🌻
Ikrrrrrr
Her first name is Harumo can’t remember her surname.
Some of us in the United States have to go to other countries that appreciate funk and soul more than our own country that originated it does. Thank you for the beautiful vibes, music, and keeping this genre alive.
Truth. Good thing the Japanese have been doing it since 70's and adding their own flavor.
If you wanna be technical I appreciate the vibes but it sounds like something from the US. Japan always appreciated U.S culture
@@Rati0nalThinker Of course, it sounds like something from the U.S., since that is where the music originated. Still harder to find the music these days in the U.S.
It kind of reminds me of some of the other popular music from the U.S. from back in the 70's and 80's also. Music that got less and less play here but was still making hits in the UK through the 2000's. Impressed me to be honest. The same goes for Jazz artist from the 40's and 50's. The music lived on to a larger audience but on a different continent.
Jazz music is not as popular as it was in the 20s and 30s, but its still relevant.However, I'm from a big city I'm from New York and they have jazz outlets in Brooklyn and Manhattan as well Radio stations that play jazz. Jazz music itself has evolved into different genres of music.@@rapid3638
I appreciate fuck and didnt have to go to other countries to appreciate. This ok. Ever hear the crusaders?
Now that’s what you call talent, great drumming, excellent bass, top keys and the sax is to die for ….
Bravo ladies 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏🎼🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵
Amazing. The vibe has got a lot of soul in it ! These Japanese ladies are on another level altogether. That saxophonist is in a state of complete flow and leading the vibe to a safe landing . We feel you !
I love the music I love the sound and I love the vibes they are great This is my type of jazz progressive jazz music I love it keep keep it up girls post is something different
Hell yeah
Man , this is classic old school instrumental, feel good Soul Music 🎵🎶. The kind of music you play @ the black family reunion & no one is insulted nor disrespected by foul language ( hip hop, rap etc). Black Soul Music aka real music 🎵🎶 performed by real, live musicians & Not beat machines, studio bells, whistles & push button technology. Soul Music representative of the Soul 🖤 of black people that has encompassed the world. These Sister's of Soul are Rockin
These girl's are hoppin, boppin & Feelin this thing
Man, my hands down to your group… Everything is working exactly like it’s supposed to work together like a true funky, blues, and jazzy band… I been living in New Orleans to The House of Blues and worked at The New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival and this would be something to see live…🙏🏾
Salute to you Brother! 💯💪🙏✊ It would be good I'm sure, and much more appreciated if they truly love and appreciate where rhe foundation of this Musical sound originated from and the Foundational Black American People that put their Hearts and Souls into creating this Beautiful Music. 💯💪💜🖤🤝B1 #4Life
That 70s funk. What yall know about that? Grrrreat job girls
@@fredicashannon5552, hey, my family was all about the 70’s at The Joy Theater down on Canal St and going to see Maze and Frankie Beverly at the Budweiser Superfest back in the day…
Yes, excellent.
Thought you were gonna cry racism 😂
Style and talent speaks for itself. I Love watching real music on display by real musicians.
YEEEEEEAH !!!! Amazing performance. Not all the GOOD Music is lost !!!
I love what you are doing. Fabulous funk from Tokyo's finest female musicians. Fantastic!
the saxofone player is simply wonderful. i love her dealing with the instrument.
This made me SMILE! I love live music. Real talent, real musicians, this is GREAT stuff!!
Straight up jam!!! And the tone out of that tenor....so smooth, so awesome. Thoroughly impressed!!
Great energy, fantastic vibe and extremely talented musicians. Hands down that sax player is tight!!! Awesome jam!!!
What a great groove. I knew Serita was super talented but everyone here is. The sax player has some chops and really hit some great notes
Visit this video often. The energy these ladies have is sum else.
It sounded good immediately, and when the keyboard came in, I knew it'd be special. All the solos killed it! This is going into my Funk list!
Yeah, you just know it's going to slap.
I think if I wandered into some club and you all were jamming away and I accidentally saw this, it would be the best night of my life. totally on point and amazing. cheers
I clicked on this, just to have some background noise, while I flossed and whitened my teeth. My attention was sucked away from the floss, by what I heard and saw. I’m subscribing! ❤
Clean and fresh. Look foreward to hearing from you.
Wow, very groovy ladies! Love that session, you are all fantastic, thank you for sharing.
