Mikio had a unique style. R.I.P. truly missed . Takayashi is amazing .He is also a member of Marty Friedman's band. All these guys just insane.
Mikio Fujioka-sama is already a legend, he passed away so young, such a huge lost for the Kami Band and BabyMetal team.
Takayoshi Ohmura was his pupil, he's super talented since he was a toddler, a prodigious musician, also got a huge fanbase among the girls lol
Daisuke Bohte (aka BOH) is the natural leader, he's a beast on bass, he always remind me Flea from RHCP because of the style of having fun and dancing up on the stage.
Hideki Aoyama came from drummers family legacy, his father and brother played the drums too, sadly they passed away, another recently tragedies we hope don't continue on BabyMetal members.
Ohmura and BOH often do livestreams with Mikio's photo to remember him and pay some honor respect forever, after Mikio's pass away he inherited all their guitars. His classic guitar is called "pink-chan".
Mikio, also known as kokami or kogami (little god, because of his height) died when having 36 yo after trying to recovering from serious injuries by falling from a stargazer, just a few days after 2018 started. The official Babymetal twitter account posted this:
_"The "Little" Guitar Kami of BABYMETAL's Kamiband has passed away in the METAL GALAXIES. We hope that he is now with his GUITAR MASTER. A. Holdsworth and enjoying an epic guitar session with him."_
"We are the one
Together
We're the only one
You are the one
Forever"
*RIP THE ONE*
In 2018 we got another huge lost, YuiMetal announced her withdrawal officially in Octuber 2018, the same day they released _Starlight_ a new song. In 2019 Babymetal release their 3rd album with a more mature content songs and the final 3 songs are called officially by KobaMetal *Trilogy Of Lights* , those songs are: _Starlight, Shine, Arkadia_ i highly recommend you those songs in that order. Among fans we took this as an unofficial tribute for Mikio-sama and YuiMetal, hope you can enjoy those songs like we do. Kitsune up \m/
I don't think Taka ended up with all of Mikio's guitars. There is only one that is ever mentioned. And it's one of the ones that he always used at BabyMetal shows. Which btw. Taka brings with him to every BM show.
RIP
True gods, thanks for the info
That's a classic Kami Band lineup with Takayoshi Ohmura, Mikio Fujioka (RIP), BOH and Hideki Aoyama.
Guitarist Leda Cygnus has also been in the mix since 2013.
Although he has played with BABYMETAL since 2015, ISAO only became a regular Kami Band member in 2018 after Mikio passed away.
In addition to these "Kamis From the East", BABYMETAL added the 'Kamis From the West" in 2019 for their US tour.
They are Chris Kelly (guitar), CJ Masciantonio (guitar), Clint Tustin (bass) and Anthony Barone (drums).
The first three might be best known as members of 'Galactic Empire', although Tustin played guitar in that group instead of bass.
Anthony Barone is probably best known from his time in the American deathcore band 'Shadow of Intent'.
This is from a New Year's Day concert from like 2015. It's a Takayoshi Ohmura concert. In the show Mikio and Hideki were guest. I am surprised that you were surprised that there was a 6-string bass. From your Babymetal reactions I am sure you must have seen it before. The drum kit that Hideki use it is not his. Yuya Maeta was the drummer for the show. He was a babymetal drummer during 2014 filling in for Hideki. He is also in the Kari Band that was started by BOH and Mikio. The song was named "Hill of Wisteria" after Mikio's passing in honor of him, since that is the meaning of his last name.
If you want to see more of this, try to find a copy of full length CD "Takayoshi Ohmura: Devils in the Dark - Final edition". It has a DVD with full live show "The Chronicle of Metal Lovers"
He also released a mini-CD called "Cerberus" with 6 cover songs (Metallica, Megadeath, Evanescene, Arch Enemy, Dream Theater, Dokken) this also came with a DVD of the full show of "The Gathering of metal Warriors".
Both are pure joy.
Takayoshi Ohmura and SAKI from Nemophila/Mary's Blood are the shred god and goddess.
Don't know if anyone said it before, but the song was named "Hills of Wisteria" after Fujioka Mikio's passing. It's a tribute to him, because the Kanji in Fujioka are 藤 (Fuji) = Wisteria and 岡 (oka) = Hill.
Mikio and Takayoshi have a very interesting picking style (called circle picking), where they only move their thumbs and index fingers when shredding (and you know how they shred). If you ever want a technique challenge on your guitar, that's a really interesting one to learn.
As a few have mentioned, Mikio Fujioka-sensei was a teacher at musicians institute (think Berklee on steroids). Apart from Takayoshi Ohumura his students include ISAO and Leda (both Kamis) Tomo-Zo (Gacharic Spin/Doll$boxx), Shiren (Unlucky Morpheus) and a whole bunch of the very elite metal guitarists of Japan . The funny thing is that Mikio himself wasn't primarily a metal guitarist. His main thing was fusion and jazz. I've mer more than a few guitarists that has said that Mikio is one of the best and most creative guitarists of all time. To name a few, Fredrik Thordendal (Mehuggah) John Norum (Europe) and Jojje Wadenius (ABBA, Blood, Sweat & Tears and a whole lot of things. He has played with just about every jazz musician you can think of).
Mikio wasn't a great guitarist, he was a genius. If he wouldn't have wanted to stay at home with his family he could have played with anyone he wanted around the globe. Instead he chose to stay in Osaka so he could help his parents in their small store and do the occasional gig with his students and...Babymetal (?!) How that happen we'll never know, but having a musician like him involved is almost as crazy as the whole Babymetal concept.
COOL! Thanks nonmusician for extra info. I knew Mikio taught Ohmura for a while, but I did not know he also worked with the other three. I suppose "taught" is appropriate as he was a professor at the institute so I'm sure they all had classes with him. But when Taka and KoGami harmonize there is just something special happening. . .like they played together for countless hours before they were even in the band together. Like Taka studied with Mikio privately perhaps before Omuhra entered the institute? LMK if you know about that.
As legend has it, Omuhra was hired for Kami-band and made Koba aware of Mikio. In fact it was said he insisted on Mikio being brought on board. :)
After Mikio's death they did that benefit show to raise money for Mikio's wife and (2) I think daughters. They were holding that show every year apparently until . . . .the pandemic. You are probably also aware Mikio's parents organic grocery store was not going to make it through the quarantine, so Taka and friends set up a delivery logistic and a website so they could survive financially. They made it known through the music seen and apparently many many musicians bought all their produce from there throughout the lock downs! Apparently, among the very first few orders the day it opened were members of Band-Maid! When I think of all these great musicians coming together to honor Mikio by helping to support his family . . .I start to tear up! True expression of The ONe!
RIP Kogami! Kitsunes up! 🤘🦊🤘
Boh is indeed a monster bassist. One of his inspirations/mentors is Billy Sheehan. Check him out sometime if you want to hear more bass tapping.
Oh wow! That's awesome! I know Billy from playing playing 'Take Cover' with Yoyoka for a video, and also an old performance with Steve Vai for Live 8. But i keep procrastinating to get to know him better. Now i really need to. Thank you for sharing that!
@@WavePotter Billy is more known for being in the group mr. Big and also with David Lee Roth
Indeed inspired by Billy Sheehan, known for his unorthodox playing. BOH likes to joke that since he admired Sheehan from early on he (BOH) did not know one was not supposed to play Bass that way. 😂
I think you should check out TAIJI fromX - JAPAN If you wanna see some Bass guitar playing.. He was an animal sadly He passed away in 2011
RIP Mikio… Gone too soon. Never forgotten. Always missed.
Great reaction Wave! This was a magnificent performace and such an accessible and entertaining tune. I really could put that one on a mixed tape!
That was an amazing reaction, thanks!
Yes, Koba doesn't joke when he chooses musicians for the Kami Band :) They are the best of the best.
So glad you appreciated Mikio's technique... missing him so much. Rest in peace.
You need to watch more Babymetal to see some of their awesome solos.
As you already know about Mikio Fujioka's passing, maybe you're interested in seeing the other 3 members (Takayoshi Ohmura, BOH, and Hideki Aoyama) play the same song as a tribute to him after he passed away. Here's a clip: czcams.com/video/a4-WF3Su3sI/video.html (the audio is a bit out of sync though, probably due to copyright reasons). In here, since Mikio is gone, they are playing a backtrack of Mikio's playing in his solo part. You will see them pour their emotions in playing each of their solos. Takayoshi here is using Mikio's signature guitar which is really heart-warming and heart-breaking at the same time. All of the revenue here went to Mikio's family. Check it out in the future if you want!
the kami band are so amazingly talented and i can't get enough of watching them. RIP Mikio we miss you
RIP little God
I guess you have not yet seen BABYMETAL’s concert video of Rondo of Nightmare with the Mischief of Metal Gods intro. You should check it out now.
Oh I have. But it got blocked. 🙃
Love How Boh steals one of Fujioka's pics at end and tosses it in the crowd
Mikio. A true kami. Such a tragedy and what a loss to the music world. He was Ohmura's guitar teacher.
I had no idea he had passed away.. that’s so sad. He’s an amazing artist with the guitar!
@@WavePotter Apparently Mikio fell off a high observation platform at an observatory whilst stargazing. He was in a coma fighting for his life for about a week before he passed. There isn't any more info than that.
It truly is very sad. . .
Following his death, Omuhra and Bohte organized a big benefit memorial show in his honor. Many Many Japanese musicians and bands participate (free or very reduced fees I imagine) as all the proceeds (and merch revenue) go to support Mikio's wife and daughters and fund their education. *There is a video of them doing this song without Mikio :( at that first show floating around. It was taken down for a while, but its back up I think.
It is a MUST SEE!!!!!~!!
Mikio's wife gave Omuhra Mikio's signature snapper 7, and he is playing it in that show (Mikio's parts and solo are tracked from the performance you just saw). He now keeps the guitar with him on tour (when there was) with Babymetal so Mikio is not far away. He has his favorite cigarette taped to the head stock enticing his spirit to come back and play it. There is also a private folded letter tucked behind the springs under the whammy bridge to Mikio from his daughter. . .needless to say if you react to that one, have a box of tissues nearby. It's a tough one. Kitsunes up Wade-Metal! 🤘🦊🤘
PS If you like Jazz/ Rock/ Fusion, check out "TrickBox" on Spotify. It is Mikio's project/ solo album. I LOVE IT!!!!!
Oh yah . .Here is the Version at Mikio's memorial concert (Mikio's part is back tracked in) with Takayoshi playing Mikio's Burgundy Mist ESP Snapper 7 : czcams.com/video/a4-WF3Su3sI/video.html (pasted from radioraffa's comment below). . .Thanks man.
Hideki is a monster. This video does not do him justice.
RIP Mikio! All legends on that stage! :)
Ah this was an excellent recommendation, especially for a musician to watch. I really enjoyed this.
Maybe worth checking out: Mikio Fujioka and BOH started a jazz band called "Kariband" together with Babymetal alum Yuya Maeta on drums. Mikio's student Satoshi Oka plays with them now in his place. They have a CZcams channel
FYI .. Here is another song (High Works) from this concert with Kuze singing and Yuya on the Drums : czcams.com/video/te09f-N4Udk/video.html
Here is the Version at Mikio's memorial concert (Mikio's part is back tracked in) with Takayoshi playing Mikio's Burgundy Mist ESP Snapper 7 : czcams.com/video/a4-WF3Su3sI/video.html
And here is the new version (No video yet - just audio) of Hill of Wisteria with Leda and Isao on guitars. Yuya on Drums and Shoyo on bass (he's never played with Babymetal but played often you Takayoshi and Mikio) czcams.com/video/1b7FXd7bd7c/video.html
Here is a concert of "Kari Band" where you can see their Jazz / Funk side czcams.com/video/FVzb8VQnf6s/video.html
Jeff Beck rides his whammy in order to get the same effect.
Loving your work here Wave.
Regarding your comment about 6 string basses, you should check out the Fender Bass IV (6) which has a long history of use from the 60,s. Same tuning as a regular guitar but one octave lower. Squire do one also Harley Benton has a great version. Get one, you will not regret it
I'm a guitar player and for some reason he was my favorite guitarists on the planet! Rest in peace little God! Much love miss you! 😭🙏🎸
🤘🦊🤘
I found this video a few months ago and can't stop watching it. So amazing. An awesome track.
RIP 藤岡幹大先生。
神バンド凄い、最高!!!
🍅🍅🍅
🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
Kami Band as always insane !!!! Mikio - Ohmura - BOH - Hideki !!!!
Miss you so much Fujioka-san.
Since you liked this performance, checkout this one czcams.com/video/a4-WF3Su3sI/video.html This is the Tribute concert Takayashi held for Mikio. They played this same song which was called "Gathering of Metal Warriors" but was renamed "Hills of Wisteria" in honor of Mikio. As a musician, you should check this out, to see the emotions and feelings the Kamiband had for each other. 🤘🦊🤘
Mikio has a Jeff Beck quality I've not seen others show.
Mikio had such a unique style.
gREAT CHANNEL!
The tapping reminds me of a video on Vladamir's YT page of Misa and Kanami's intro to Clang. Please watch it. As a Band-Maidiac I will never get tired of watching that opening. czcams.com/video/lLm0ZS2oTj8/video.html
RIP MIKIO..
Annnnd ... it is proven. No one can continue to say that Babymetal is not Metal. With these world-class musicians behind them I would listen to the girls recite the Periodic Table. Yet instead, Su, Moa (and Yui) sing songs of empowerment and meaning with the view to bring younger people to metal music, particularly younger women and girls. I love when band's choose to make a difference.
Thanks for bringing such an awesome 3 minutes to my life.
React to Rondo of nightmare from Babymetal with the intro 🔥❤️✌️
i approve
Mr. Aoyama borrowed someone else's drum set-up and played on it.
R.I.P Mikio... Friend and teacher
Btw the name of the song is. "Hills of Wisteria". Last time it was played I believe was during the first tribute show after Mikio passed away. You should watch that video... Takayoshi can barely make it through the song. It's so emotion packed. And I am surprised you didn't recognize "Pink-Chan" from the many BabyMetal video's it's starred in. Shame on you!
Take it easy Yolandria . . .Wade is new. . . . .lol. . . It wasn't named Hills of Wisteria until after Mikio died. That is why this video says "Band Solos" . .also he clued in about it being the Kami's whilst he was looking at Pink Chan. I think he recognized it. Don't be shaming the newbies now :) . . .bad fox🦊 I hope he does check out the memorial show. I still can't watch it without tearing up. . . Kitsunes up!😉🤘🦊🤘
🤘🦊🤘
Mikio
