About TAKA　MINAMINO　

About Taka Minamino

Mike Varney Spotlight 2005 Sep. issue
On Minamino’s recent demo, he lays down a barrage of blinding neo-classical chops in a context of highly composed pieces.
Minamino’s sense of melody and melodic phrasing, vibrato, and speed chops are all highly developed.

Derek Sherinian's Review from New CD
Besides his obvious blistering speed and precision, the thing that moves me the most about Taka's playing is his spot on bends and beautiful vibrato.

BIO
Born in 1984 Feb. 20th in Osaka/Japan and raised.
I learned violin from 4 to 14 ages and then, changed to guitar at high school. After I learned guitar from Kelly Simonz, I moved to Los Angeles to attend MIHollywood GIT in 04, took guitar lessons from Joy Basu and I also got available to play around music include fusion,funk,blues etc. during GIT.
After graduated MIHollywood, I sent instrumental music demo to Mike Varney who owns Shrapnel record and he mentioned me on Spotlight Column 2005 Sep. issue Guitar Player Magazine USA. And then,I started working on my record with drummer Jeff Bowders(Paul Gilbert), keyboardist Michael T. Ross(Hardline) and vocal Kevin Jones.
Keyboard virtuoso Derek Sherinian invited me to lay down guitar tracks for his new album in early 2008.
