And I still go back to that one often. Just watching the pure joy on her face as she nails every note is a thrill to watch. She buries the drum track on EVERY cover she does but I think her Led Zeppelin covers are her forte...I would swear she is channeling John Bonham and my personal favorite is Achilles Last Stand
Like your laid back style. You make your image small and let the performer shine.Thoughtful and respectful. Yoyoka is in touch with the ascended masters of drumming. She is talented with a great ear Grew up on stages all over Hokkaido and Japan. She has obviously done a lot of rudiment study and practice. Her whole family is into music. They are so cool! Her little brother will be the Japanese Mick Jagger one day. All are singers and multi instrumentalists. She brings us a lot of joy!
I’m so glad you have had such a great response to the Yoyoka cover , Kill the King. I have to say I’m really enjoying your reaction videos. Take the time to listen to Mistreated (Deep Purple), which was played for Yoyoka’s 12th birthday celebration, ( on her channel). Yoyoka and the band members are unbelievable. You will not be short of suggestions for Yoyoka videos I promise you! Thank you for reacting to this, it’s really interesting listening to your comments. Pat 🏴
@@chrisegbertky I have to agree Chris. I much prefer reactions from experience drummers which put our little genius’s talent in perspective. I see the Soma’s are thinking of moving to the USA! If they do I hope it’s the right move. Happy New Year Chris.
As mentioned by others here, at age 8 she was the youngest drummer ever to sign endorsement contracts with Pearl Drums and Vic Firth, and was subsequently also endorsed by Zildjian, DW, Cympad, and I think Roland Drums as well. Within the Pearl line she normally plays Reference floor toms, Reference Pure mounted toms, and a Masters bass drum (though I saw one video where she might have been playing a set of Pearl Masterworks). She has a bunch of snare drums, so there's no telling which one she'll play. Her video where she discusses each of her snare drums is really great by the way. I'm sure it has already been mentioned in other comments too that last year, at age 11, she became the youngest drummer ever named to Drummerworld Magazine's list of the top 500 drummers in history. She's the real deal, an absolute joy and absolutely brilliant, but perhaps the most special of all, she comes from a wonderful loving family. Regarding your question about her YYZ cover, it was brilliant.
@@mikemcmillen9581 - exactly - one of the more impressive thing I have seen her do is playing Senri Kawaguchis Onyx at an age of 7 ... in a band. And killing it. And the audience was mesmerized.
Just Another Reactor, thank you for your excellent comments, you know there are several good young drummers but Yoyoka is really one of a kind plus she is very humble, like Ronnie James Dio would say "We rock". She is the Speed Queen.
Another really enjoyable reaction, thank you! For me one of Yoyoka's greatest strengths it's that she doesn't just play the notes: she really *inhabits* the song. I get the impression that she's experiencing the drumming in the same way that the original drummer did, which elevates her playing way above "just another cover". Looking forward to your next video.
It's always fun to watch other musicians take a dive down the Yoyoka rabbit hole. The covers she plays from the comfort of her family's studio are often the most entertaining because she has the freedom to really let fly and let off steam whereas when she plays live or with a band in a pro studio she puts on her game face and becomes a serious team player. I mention this because often reactors assume she's just some amateur bashing away at home, but even at the tender age of 12 and a bit she is already a seasoned pro with hundreds of gigs under her belt, I recommend reading her bio that accompanies her vids in the show more section. Nice one Dude-enjoy the ride.
Thanks for the reaction! She uses Pearl Drums and is sponsored by Pearl, Zildjian, DW, and Vic Firth (I am missing one or two). There are some videos of her picking out the Pearl set at the factory, then another where she unpacks the set, and another where she unpacks the Zildjians. It is fun to watch her excitement. Burn and Ian Paice's review will be great. There is also a Yoyoka 12th Birthday version of Burn with a live band which I can recommend. There is also a 12th BD version of Deep Purple's Mistreated in which the singer's voice is incredible. You will see Yoyoka's serious side if you see her doing live gigs or studio work. Thanks again!
She is sitting behind around 5 digits worth of kit. Thanks to her endorsements. That bass is a Yoyoka custom made by Pearl with her artwork on it, and it is available for anyone to buy($2500-ish). Most of the kit is Pearl Custom and Reference line pieces, hand picked by her when she went to the Pearl factory in Japan. Speaking of Ian Paice, he has reacted to her cover of Burn, and she has sessioned with him in his studio as I recall.
She went to Pearl in Japan and chose her kit after being endorsed by them, she has a video on her channel when her kit arrived and she explains what she chose during the unboxing
Burn!! You will love the way Ian reacts to her playing. If you do a double, the 12th birthday session would be a great one to watch with it. Just to watch how she plays with a band. Remember, they are a 'one take' recording for each of the songs in that session.
Yoyoka is self taught as well and can't read sheet music, although she is or was learning to. She generally listens to a cover 2-3 times then bangs it out. More difficult songs take her 4-5 tries. Most of us have a right brain and a left brain. Apparently she has 4 brains, one for each limb, or so it seems. She can 4 totally different things going on with each limb AND then change the timing or beat on any one or more while keeping the remaining limbs on the same tempo. (I know nothing about music so I might be describing it incorrectly but you will see what I mean as you watch her more. Like she did with her left hand at 9:35 in this vid)
She is sponsored by pearl the youngest drummer they ever sponsored I'm sure someone has answered that . She has a pretty large library need to check out her birthday session it is amazing.

She is endorsed by Pearl Drums and Zildjian (among others). She selects each piece of her kit by playing dozens of versions of each piece of the kit and then putting together all the pieces that sound best to her. She did a video of this when she went to visit Pearl Drums. They actually created a signature series after her selections and named it after her.

Thank you for this reaction. I prefer this cover than Burn (which was an awesome cover). I just love the last phrasing of this song and how effortless and seamless she did it. And as much power she puts into this, it’s how amazing that she stays in the pocket. That’s why I call her Yoyoka ‘Pocket’ Soma. She’s just brilliant. Can’t wait to see your reaction on Burn and one of my fave cover, YYZ. Please consider reacting to her version of Steam (or RATM ‘Killing in the Name’) when she was a little younger. It might not be your cup of tea, but it’s worth the look. ✌🏼
Yoyoka is just my favorite all around. But Caleb is awesome as well. Yes, react to him for sure. I can tell you enjoy any musical talent, but in regards to getting views Yoyoka, BandMaid, Lovebites, JUNNA (Drummer) are all awesome talents and will draw their fanbases. All of these musicians will blow you away and give you an all around musical thill. Japan is ROCK CENTRAL and keeping metal and rock alive. The most views will come from Alip Ba Ta (Amazing and Unique Guitarist)
Thanks for your insight! You got some great Yoyoka viewing ahead of you!! React to Paice's reaction to Yoyoka's, Burn. You and your viewers will dig it. Also recommended by Yoyoka, Bulls on Parade by Rage Against the Machine And, We're An American Band by Grand Funk. Watching Yoyoka is simultaneously jaw-dropping, inspiring and hilarious. Hilarious in the sense of how effortlessly she punishes the skins.
You've got the audio track of Yoyoka's video messed up since it's got distortion. It's far too LOUD, so there's a lack of dynamics. It sounds more like noise than music.
Bill I agree, as she grows, she improves. To be fair, Yoyoka was 10yo when she covered YYZ. I'm no Rush expert, but she got the feel pretty good. A drummer (Vand3rHorst Official), reacted to Yoyoka cover YYZ. He said he'd spent years trying to figure it out, without success. He added, after watching Yoyoka once, he understood how to play it! AFAICT, if she likes something enough, she'll figure out how to play it.
I'm surprised nobody is asking you to react to her Good Times Bad Times when she was 8! I saw that video and it blew me away. Yoyoka is... beyond her years, a prodigy, just amazing! Link for the lazy: ruclips.net/video/BslksgTF4X4/видео.html

fanastic song from an iconic band. yoyoka is again amazing. she has her pokerface, which means sh´s focussed. her family is amazing too. thank you for this fine expertly reaction. as a nondrummer i´ve got one question: how is it possible to play from sheet at that speed? : ruclips.net/video/EBcuPxjbJRU/видео.html ?
I clicked on the link and I recognized that as Murata Tamu of Nemophila. It looks like a video I'd like to react to so I only played about the first 5 seconds of it. Sheet music for drums is written as notes for each drum, the hi hat and cymbals. The speed that she's playing the bass drums with her feet I believe are written as 16th notes.
Regarding Caleb H. Yes, he is fantastic. But I do not feel at ease when seeing and hearing him drumming. He do not look happy. And the things he play is not really kid stuff. It is quite hard and dreary. Maybe I am imagining things. But ... no ... I do not like it. Yoyoka, Junna, Senri, Kanade, Tamu, .... you name it is much more fun. OK ... all girls ... but there was an american guy also called Avery I used to look at.
Yoyoka has an uncanny sense of time and rhythm. Absolutely love her and her style. Rock on, girl!
Good times bad times when she was 8 yrs old her breakthrough cover.
And I still go back to that one often. Just watching the pure joy on her face as she nails every note is a thrill to watch.

I'm surprised nobody is asking you to react to her Good Times Bad Times when she was 8! I saw that video and it blew me away. Yoyoka is... beyond her years, a prodigy, just amazing!

That’s on my list to react to.
You made the changes. However, I like you're reply so much, I don't want to delete this comment 😀
Thanks for that. I fixed it. Now I want to write a song called Speeg King. 😀 😀 😀
@@JustAnotherReactor If you'd like me to delete my comment, I will. I searched for 'Speeg'. There are a lot of Speegs! Happy New Year to You and Yours.
@@gbulmer No need to delete it.
@@gbulmer I did not know the comments for that reaction video were disabled. I don’t even know how that happened. I was wondering this morning why it had as many views as it did but no comments yet. I re-enabled the comments on that video. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.
@@JustAnotherReactor I'm pleased I helped. Sorry for my assumption.
I've moved my comment about your reaction over to that video.
Maybe your comment on that video, about switching comments back on, should be 'pinned' to the top of the page?
I'll delete my comment here soon to tidy this reply section up.
fanastic song from an iconic band. yoyoka is again amazing. she has her pokerface, which means sh´s focussed. her family is amazing too. thank you for this fine expertly reaction.
as a nondrummer i´ve got one question: how is it possible to play from sheet at that speed? : ruclips.net/video/EBcuPxjbJRU/видео.html ?
I clicked on the link and I recognized that as Murata Tamu of Nemophila. It looks like a video I'd like to react to so I only played about the first 5 seconds of it. Sheet music for drums is written as notes for each drum, the hi hat and cymbals. The speed that she's playing the bass drums with her feet I believe are written as 16th notes.
😃
Yoyoka doesn’t read music either. 👍🏻
If you want to check out a child prodigy guitar player, check out Taj Farrant, the 11 year old out of Australia.
I recommend JUNNA's "Rising Force / Yngwie Malmsteen -Drum cover". Astonishing play ruclips.net/video/0Y37gImgpIE/видео.html
Regarding Caleb H. Yes, he is fantastic. But I do not feel at ease when seeing and hearing him drumming. He do not look happy. And the things he play is not really kid stuff. It is quite hard and dreary. Maybe I am imagining things. But ... no ... I do not like it. Yoyoka, Junna, Senri, Kanade, Tamu, .... you name it is much more fun. OK ... all girls ... but there was an american guy also called Avery I used to look at.
