NEMOPHILA Band Members Connection Before MAYU SESSION - Part 1 | Murata Tamu, SAKI & Hazuki
Vložit
- čas přidán 27. 12. 2022
- NEMOPHILA started out as a session band called MAYU SESSION in August 2019. After two live shows, they appeared for the first time officially as NEMOPHILA, in September 2019 at METAL WEEKEND 2019 (Zepp DiverCity, Tokyo) where the band opened up for heavy metal legends: LOUDNESS and HAMMERFALL.
Before the gathering of MAYU SESSION, the band members had encountered one another during their journey as musicians, be it on the same stage, the same event or the same venue. In this video, we will try to explore their encounters as much as we possibly could, so that we could trace back their origin and appreciate their bond as a band, that we are able to enjoy today.

Previous poll results on both this channel and OvD channel regarding the first member approached by mayu to form MAYU SESSION band, whether Hara or Tamu, could be said as equally divided.
For those who voted Hara and it was solely based on my (lots of) old comments, I am very sorry and I take full responsibility for the misunderstanding.
As mentioned in this video, it was Tamu! In sequence - Tamu, Hara, SAKI and Hazuki... and Hazuki's encounter stories are the most interesting one in this topic... just wait for it!
The evidence of the band member gathering sequence will be presented in PART 2 of this video.
From the information i got Mayu & Hara were classmates in school. It was Mayu who approached Hara to join in after some other members were already in the band. Rumors also said that Hara might be living Nemophila soon. Well, I might be wrong. But still, Hara will be my fav of them all 💗
I believe nyango star is Junna. 🤔🤘I thought in the past it may have been TAMU but this video proves it's not
@@MikeDPlxztc me too had theory that Nyango Star = Tamu in disguise but debunked once she announced her guest drummer on her 2nd solo live concert. They played side by side and showed their masterful drumming skills by performing Kurenai together where both were spot on note to note with individually went wild in different parts of the song throughout; and eventually both gave standing ovation to one another.
@@blackucing I have my suspicions of a couple others but I think Junna is my main suspect. Mystery continues 😄
@@blackucing oh really great job on the video by the way. subscribed 👍
This Nemophilac will be watching 😎🤘🇨🇦🤘
thank you for the video!! looking forward to the next one!! 😄😄
Thanks for the fantastic job! I'm waiting for the second part. 👍🎸😛
Awesome research and editing. There were some incredible older footage that I have never seen before. Thank you so much for doing this project!
This is awesome! Thank you.
Great video. Thanks. Looking forward to seeing next one
In my little opinion there's no greater Metal Goddess than Saki. She is a Woman who brings Heaven to Earth. Thank You forever Saki. I Love You...
Incredible that she’s not married…..
Wow. It is so interesting. I'm so excited!
Thank you for all this information. Can't wait for the part two.
Awesome video! Can't wait for more!
Thank you @BLACK KUCING, for this video and timeline! For those of us in the USA that love this band, it is difficult for us to do the research - for me, not reading or speaking Japanese is also an impediment. The effort that you took to perform the research, find early video footage, and piece together the timeline is amazing. Thank you for all your efforts!! I will watch all of the videos in this series, and am looking forward to the next couple むらたたむ videos, as well as the next Nemophila history!
Thanks for your video. Looking forward to other parts.
This was really good - great to learn a bit more about the background of one of my favourite J-Metal bands. Keen to learn more!
Thank you very much for this video much appreciated you filled in a lot of gaps between stuff I had already known looking forward to part two of this series
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you! It's so interesting!
This is great OvD. Looking forward to the next installment 🤘😄🤘
Oh, the editing works haven't started yet for that video 😅 There might be one or two Tamu video before PART 2 release 🤔
I forgot Juna Serita was in SORAMIMI! I also keep forgetting how much experience they all have. Japanese chicks don't age, they literally look 20 until they hit 50! ☺
I just found this. So cool.
Just thought i'd say "Hi" & i honestly had no idea David would be here too.😂
Hey David and Gary, OvD is quite an awesome knowledge base for NEMOPHILA's origin story and activities.
La Tamu Tamu ! Impresionante baterista, la mejor si sumamos todas sus virtudes ! Nunca vi a una baterista tocar tan hermoso ! Un espectáculo! Y Saki la maravillosa, para mí la guitarrista más linda del Japón ! Gran portada, me gusta! 😎🤘
Magnifique !!! Très beau travail !
J adore !
Very cool video bro! Respect🤘🏻
Thank you always.
Thank God the woman of Japan are saving rock and hard rock. For the rest of us mere mortals on the planet !
Thanks for introducing the history of all Nemophila members

Bassist Soramimi Juna Serita is now one of the most famous jazz/fank/...bassists.
In the projects of Ladybeard and later Daisuke Kurosawa, in which Tamu took part, Yashiro played the guitar (concert support for Mary's Blood).
Congrats for entire "bot-presentation" ! I liked a lot! Happy New 2023 Metal Year! \_/ :)
As non native English speaker, it helps a lot in building subtitle for translations... and I tried hard to make it sounded less like a bot, but yes, it still is.
What a great video, so interesting for relatively new fans of the Japanese music scene. I got hooked on BAND-MAID in 2018, and next I learned about Lovebites, then Nemophila and Hanabie.
Now those four bands are practically the only music I listen to.
This video gave a lot of interesting background information about the Nemophila members in particular, and it also offered a glimpse into how the Japanese Rock/Metal scene works.
Also, thumbs up for the professional production quality as well as the perfect English narration.
I really look forward to part 2 of this, and hopefully more videos about other awesome Japanese bands.
*Edit:* Subscribed, of course. If you have watched this and haven't subscribed yet ... just do it, so the channel can be monetised soon, and the creator of the videos can be rewarded.
Thank you for your support. Now the side story for this series, specifically highlighting the My Goddess voting project is in the production and will be released first.
Thank you Saki for all the amazing 🤩 memories with NEMOPHILA! Yes we will miss you but support you on your new music journey and we will support NEMOPHILA! To 😊🤟🇯🇵
Merci beaucoup, très intéressant .
Nice mini documentary like what Ohrenje did for band maid. Keep it up! Nemophila is a force to be reckoned. Greetings from city of the cats/kuching Msia!
This is awesome. I'm pretty new to Nemophilia, so it is really nice to hear more to what the members did in the past and how the band formed. 😊🙂
Amazing!
Great video. But still waiting for part 2
Thank you for sharing
Good work!
Thanks for the information, rare pictures and recordings.
Interesting: The idea of maid outfits was already taken up by the band mixx (at 8:26) back in 2010. 😯
Notification set 👍
I was in Tokyo at that time 2019 and was lucky to to see the last show of the Marys Blood Confession tour ! It was the best show from MB ! And two weeks later I was still in Tokyo , I heard
that Saki will play with another Band at the Wild Side Tokyo ! I was there at the birth of Nemophila ! But at that time I never thought that this was the beginning of the end of Mary's Blood !!!
I love the Mary’s Blood songs.”Coronation day”, and “ On the Rocks “ so much……
Stoked to see Ayumi chan getting a mention. Her and Bridear are doing great things atm 👍
Hurry, hurry....I'm loving it.
This is my favorite band, the personnel are cool, the music is good, even though I don't understand Japanese, but because the band NEMOPHILA's performance is very good, extraordinary, I fell in love and really like it. Keep your enthusiasm in working. Good luck.🧡💛💚💙💜💯😅
Great video! I'm going to need one of these videos featuring LOVEBITES! ☺
Yes, please develop one for LOVEBITES! 😊
This was very interesting.
This documentary is wonderful!!! A big congratulations for all the work it took to make it.
I love it haha I will share it in the groups and page that I manage of fans of Mexico, a big greeting!!!!! /o/
Thank you and I hope the Spanish translation helps because I didn't speak Spanish at all but use multiple translation engines for this one to make it as accurate as possible.
@@blackucing if you want me to help you with the revision of the English to Spanish translation, feel free to send me a DM and I'll be glad to help you! n.n !!
@@DannCV great! I will see how it goes and will contact you if necessary.
@@DannCVi sent you an email 🙏🏼
😅 Please post more!! Thank You!! ❤👍👏
Good video!
Glad you enjoyed it
good job !
This is one of the best documentaries I've ever seen on this subject! Can't wait to watch part 2. Looking forward to more of your content in the future. Just subscribed, too!
Thank you very much and Happy New Year.
@@blackucing Happy New year to you as well!🙏
"Loudness" is my favorite''''
NEMOPHILA x LOUDNESS, JUNE 2022, ZEPP OSAKA BAYSIDE
Bravo bravo que maravillosa primera parte ! Esta interesante la historia por qué entiendo todo ! OvD te felicito ! Gran información para los que queremos mucho a Tamu Tamu , yo no sabía nada de esto ! Esperando ansioso la siguiente parte donde aparece Haraguchi -san ✨ saludos 😎🤘
Es una máquina de traducciones y he probado muchas veces a través de diversas plataformas para obtener los más precisos. Me alegro de que funcione bien para usted.
@@blackucing funciona muy bien!
🤜🤛
I watched this for Saki, god she's so beautiful
Pls update part 2 as soon as possible.
I will try my best but don't expect too much. It is coming for sure and you will be surprised to learn about Hazuki's story 😉
Hazuki's name is pronounced how it is spelled. "Ha-ski" is her nickname called out by Mayu, as is "Chakki" (chucky) for Saki. As for order of the group. Mayu has said the order. Her and Haraguchi (school friends) contacted Tamu via social media.. Tamu asked Saki who then suggested Hazuki.
There was conflicting story of the order and yes the first was during an interview just as you mentioned... but that was from an interview and I supposed its just responding as necessary. However, there is one other 'quite recent' story of the chronological order on how it went and also more detailed information about Hazuki's arrivals. From the same source, it was SAKI who brought in Hazuki - true but that's only half of the whole story. The evidence will be presented on PART 2.
@@blackucing Well that was the story from Mayu's mouth. Unless you hear something different from her mouth. Then that's the story. I also look forward to hear Hazuki name pronounced properly in Part 2. (not Ha-Ski)
@@radioraffa Yes the story was told by mayu herself during her 'free time' i.e. not being asked or 'demanding setup'. I was about to pronounced SAKI as chakki to create more 'relaxed' environment but the sounds of it with that voice is not appealing... Hazuki's on the other hand sounds natural so Hazuki name pronunciation wont change.
@@blackucing Well then use a human voice and not a fake AI voice. Also explain that it is her nickname since this is a informative video. As you kinda of did for Tamu who's real first name is Ai but professional known as Tamu. Hazuki never introduces herself as Ha-Ski. That is just Mayu calling her that on stage during solos. Then Fanboys and poser reactors who don't speak Japanese, just ran with it as her name pronunciation.
@@radioraffa I am already producing videos providing in depth stories for the fans who want to know more about them, and to expose NEMOPHILA to greater audience including providing subtitles for Spanish fans eventhough I am not speaking any....... and... nickname is still a name, recognizable by many and accepted by her, so I don't think its an issue unless it is fundamentally different contextually or by definition. And thank you for taking the time paying attention to the details. Will consider but its not our first priority to attend to.
ミュージックステーション。
カッコいいね
Those polls reminded me of how good Chelsy were. I also had no idea than Juna Serita was in Soramimi with Tamu.
I think Tamu and Juna were the closest among them. You saw Tamu and Juna did the singing there? When SORAMIMI management wanted to add alternate vocals to their contents, both of them volunteered and they went to the vocal classes together.

i like tamu ♡
I'm looking for part 2! I always get rerouted to the first one.Wth
Because Part 2 is still in production queue with couple of setbacks recently but worry not, it is coming. Currently we are working on the side-story / sub-episode (Part 1.5) and then Part 2 will enter the production stage as part of the multi episodes NEMOPHILA: The Story series... that we are not sure how many episodes in total with so many to tell with so little to spare - time, resources, materials, etc. This particular video was planned for only 1 episode but as you can see, it became 2 - and fans' feedback in Part 1 made us thought about the needs to explain something, so we squeezed another episode in between, so it became 3.
Thank you for watching and looking for more. We will work for more so watch this space 🤘🏻
Bagus
Maybe you already knew, but let me add one interesting footnote to Murata Tamu, her supporting a Japanese idol group. Presumably inspired by the success of BABYMETAL and PassCode, an idol group WASUTA started a project to do a gig featuring a band, not pre-recorded tracks. Before the live show (coincidentally at the same venue of Naon no Yaon), they released a series of studio-recorded live performances of their tunes. You can see Murata's drumming in these videos. The group recruited skillful musicians who were famous in the CZcams scene, so first of all, Murata was regarded as the drum maestra on CZcams.

Yes, those exact clips were prepared in raw materials and initially planned to be included in one section with the other two support role performances around 5:34 marks but later dropped since that section is too short, and that clip lacks the 'smiling' factor in relation to that section's subject/narration.
@@blackucing Thank you. Yes, in the clip it seems she deliberately keeps her face not smiling :)
I for one enjoyed your video and appreciate the knowledge. As for pronunciations; I would like to be respectful and get it correct. However, I don’t speak Japanese, so I have to trust others that actually do.
If its about Hazuki's pronunciation, actually it was technical issue. The narration was recorded at certain speed and then cut off at certain intervals to match media contents presented on the screen. During the development of this video, I was overwhelmed with the amount of footage to prepare and then put back together again forming the base timeline. After placing everything together, it turns out that prepared footage needs to be longer to accommodate the timing of the recorded narration. I don't have the luxury of time to revisit the initial footage preparation stage, and at the same time, using what's available means there will be gaps (blank screen) on multiple places, simply because I don't have enough footage to fill it with. So, to make it quick and easy, speed up the narration by 0.5 factor and if you noticed, certain pauses were very brief - and that is because I just follow along with the sped up narration without any further adjustment (I was wasted 😅).
So, all those headache resulted in missing certain syllables and most notably the middle U in Hazuki's name. The U sounds is there but the nature of Z sounds and then going to K sound, it have to cut off properly and the Z sounds stood out as opposed to the U sound in between because U sounds is so subtle compared to the Z sound character itself, I mean the 'zzzz vibration effect'. I don't bother to explain the details because it was no way near the disrespect issue since mayu also said it that way, and with completely silent U. I still have the U but subdued if you listen carefully. I was reluctant to go into details because it was like cherry picking since there were other words affected in that manner, and surprisingly the ending U in Murata Tamu was not badly affected. You can still hear the U sounds clearly but instead, in Japanese, that ending U sound should be subdued (hint: listen to mayu said Tamu's name at NnY after performing OIRAN) ...and it was not mentioned at all in term of mispronunciation, which in fact, very obvious.
Yes it was a machine TTS and I have to resort to this method for a reason, and since I went into details here, lets keep going.
I intend to make a video that is available as in understood by the greater audience. To make that possible, subtitles with (auto) translations (capability) in various languages are essentials. YT have the auto detect subtitles features if we specify the video language. Of course the auto in the name means machine-generated, which means, not 100% accurate. I have to download the auto generated one and double check, also fix the timestamp (which are overlapping by nature of YT detection). I am not a native English speaker, anddeventhough its my second language, and my local accent won't help in the already weak auto detection. If I am using my own voice, I need more time to work on the subtitles. And I am not a video production company that have the capacity to hire voice over/narrator.
Hope that clears the issue, and I am aware of it now to try minimize the mess in the future. Thanks again! 🤘🏻
@@blackucing To be clear, I absolutely enjoyed your video. I read other comments and honestly I have no clue on pronunciation. I’ve watched all the videos that non-speaking individuals have watched. Frankly, they may be correct, or not. Regardless, I’ll get the answer from the horses mouth, so to speak in time. I want to be respectful, but have limited trust in comments. I enjoyed your video an look forward to part 2. God Bless.
Where's part 2 tho? I NEED IT
I am busy with a startup project at this moment... but part 1.5 is in final stage and the script for part 2 is all set so it is coming 🤘🏻
cute cat
How come none of them are Playing any "Loudness" songs''?
SAKI was among the first female endorser of Killer Guitars, a brand co-founded by Akira Takasaki. They played LOUDNESS song here czcams.com/video/dAjfoDqDg2s/video.html ...if I remember correctly, SAKI's guitar was a loan by Akira Takasaki specifically for this cover.. They shared the stage with LOUDNESS at Osaka Bay Side during their Zepp Tour.
When will part 2 be coming?
As you can see from the community post, the next release is Part 1.5, but... I got problem with the production PC hard disk and I can confirm now that the recovering process cannot start since the drive failed to be detected at all. So now I am in the process of gathering all the necessary sources for Part 1.5 first... and Part 2 source materials also gone during this incident so I can't really say the timeframe for now but it is coming for sure. Gomennasai 🙏🏼
@@blackucing ok thank you I was just wondering because I really enjoyed seeing how the band connected before they formed officially
Are u from Indonesia?
I am your neighbour, Malaysian.
凄いなこれ、どんだけ調べたんだろ…
Well... not enough since I can't find any information on mayu's background prior to her audition that makes her LIPSTICK vocalist.
ジェイルモデル使ってたんか
それは何ですか？
Hirona conten before talk about Malaysia?
Correct!
Ok..j want as u..it true mayu is hara sister in law?
@@khasranjuliakhasran3779 this is the first time I heard such claim... where did you get that information? I don't think it is true. Hara did introduced her sister as she appeared as Chanqoo model, and mayu did share her wedding photo... so I don't think so. Provide your source and we will try to verify it. Thank you.
I hear in youtube..that way they always wear the same t-shirt...
@@khasranjuliakhasran3779 about the 'same shirt' remarks, all of NEMOPHILA band members did support an apparel brand Chanqoo - in which Haraguchi-san is the brand owner.
I couldn't find anything about the claimed family relations but very unreliable if its based on that fact alone.
Promo*SM
*That interlude in Adabana sounds like it was ripped from Tenacious D and the Satan scene.* LOLZ
It's possible. All these bands pull influences and ideas from EVERYWHERE. Makes it fun to try and connect the dots.
*At **3:54**, a falsehood gets spread. Tamu is not the most experienced. Saki is.*
Saki goes back to Destrose, 2009-2010.
Well then, you already said it, 2009 with Destrose, while in 2018, Tamu already celebrated her 10 years of drumming.
Also I didn't mentioned in the video (since its irrelevant because I already declared Tamu is the most experienced), during an interview with SAKI about AMAHIRU, the interviewer also congratulate her on forming NEMOPHILA and how they (NEMOPHILA) must have been blessed to have her in the band because of her experience.... and SAKI humbly replied that she is in fact is not the most experience one on the group but another musician is, and she had always looking up to her as a far more superior as a musician, which is Tamu :)
@@blackucing However humble Saki is, it is not true.
It is a weird statement to make in the video all the same.
Who do you suppose has played on more recordings? Do you know? Tamu was employed by a music creation firm of some kind. Saki had at least three projects going at once in the beginning of Nemophila.
Please do not be a loser "akshully" type and ruin yet another all-girls Jappo band.
@@blackucing 10 years of playing the drums is not the same as 10 year GETTING PAID to play the drums. Crikey.
Saki was already paid to play by 2009 and had been playing long before that 2009.
Good luck though!
@@johnp.johnson1541 well, its not about getting paid but OK.
