It's very compact.
I see.
Just a small equipment.
It's a small sound module like this big.
Oh.

Please join me here.
_ That was really, really impressive.
Thank you very much.
I'm glad if you like it.
Yes, I did.
I still can't believe that it was just you doing all that by yourself.
It was really amazing.
Thank you.
So how [F#] many years did it take for you to complete [G] this whole entire system?
[Fm] Yeah, I start [D] to do this kind of things maybe 15 years ago.
15 [G] years ago?
Little by little, step by step.
Step by step.
So do you think in the years coming, it'll develop [C] even more?
That's correct.
I hear that you have really, really strong ambitions for the drums. _
So everybody _ recognize drums as a backing instrument.
That's true.
But I play melody and harmony with this trigger system, so I could be solo player.
Oh, I see.
So what I want to do is going around whole world and showing the possibility of drumming.
Will you be performing anywhere soon?
This [A] month, I travel to South Africa.
[Em] South Africa?
Yeah, first [N] time in African continent, so I'm very much looking forward to it.
That sounds great.
Well, I wish you further success and thank you very much for coming today.
