  • WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

    My first idol drummer is Ian Paice from "DEEP PURPLE". After I started studying under Kozo Suganuma, I have been interested in Jazz and Fusion music. Now I love listening to Chick Corea, Michel Camilo, Dave Weckl and " Weather Report".

  • WORDS OF WISDOM FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF DRUMMERS

    I can say nothing because I still have a lot to learn to be an ideal drummer. Because I can do, you can make it too, I think.

  • FAVORITE ZILDJIAN CYMBAL/COMBO

    Trashformer series, K Constantinople series.
