Clip #6: Double Bass
Akira came to fame with the four-piece Japanese
jazz-fusion band Casiopea. Casiopea was formed in
1979 by guitarist Issei Noro, keyboardist Minoru
Mukaiya, bassist Tetsuo Sakurai and drummer
Takashi Sasaki. The band released its first album
in May of 1979, a high-energy fusion of jazz and
funk augmented by a horn section consisting of top
American stars Michael and Randy Brecker and David
Sanborn. Akira took over the drum chair in 1980,
appearing on the band's third album, Thunder Live.
Today his solo performances are legendary. Unlike
many other clinicians who play along to sequenced
backing tracks, Akira is quite capable of playing
both acoustic kit and electronic kit
simultaneously in real time to create amazing,
complete pieces of music. Yet although he revels
in complexity he is also very aware of the need to
groove, to create a good feel.
