ABOUT JOJO:
Swiss born Jojo Mayer started playing drums at an early age. By age 18, he received his first international exposure when touring with Monty Alexander and backing up jazz legends such as Dizzy Gillespie and Nina Simone. In the early 1990s, Mayer moved from Europe to New York City, where he performed with a wide range of artists in various styles. Artists that Mayer has performed with include The Screaming Headless Torsos, Meshell n'dege Occello, DJ Spooky, Emergency Broadcast Network, the Vienna Art Orchestra, Wolfgang Muthspiel, Harry Pepl, Gerald Veasley, John Zorn, George Adams, Jamaaladeen Tacuma, John Medeski, Leni Stern, Wolfgang Puschnigg, Friedrich Gulda, Harry Sokal, Steve Coleman's 5 Elements, and Wah Wah Watson. As the bandleader of NERVE, his concepts and techniques of reverse engineering electronic drumbeats in real time on an acoustic drumset introduced a new paradigm and opened the door for an entire generation of musicians to follow. In 2014, Modern Drummer magazine listed him as one of the “50 Greatest Drummers of All Time.”
I come back to this every few years to remind myself of the important things.
Wow. Mind Blown!!! Learned more in seventeen minutes than a year of private intermediate lessons.
Its insanely cool when you actually understand what musical ideas he is portraying. Its like being part of what you are doing at the moment and narrating yourself through complexity but still being grounded and not break in to bad habits that will break the musical flow and integrity
"The paradiddle, to me, has always been a melody, not a rudiment." Hearing this statement out of Jojo should be an epiphany for any drummer.
A palindrome on the drums.
shit, i feel the same o_O
Maybe it's both a rudiment and melody? Shit... I'm a genius! Lol
@@davidolson558 LOL!
@@bergerdrum lol. I never take anything seriously.
Every time I hear Jojo talk, he distroys the bad habits that i accumulate as a drummer. He reminds me the most important thing.. the musicality. We often get lost in tons of patterns without really get the true potential out of them. Sometimes we forget important musical concepts like timber, tension, DYNAMIC.
well, yes, but still he dominates all the patterns and techniques. So, it is missunderstood if seen as an excuse, not to master all that stuff.
@@sharpisharp of course, those are the tools to comunicate, is like a language, you could know the same words than Other people, but still be unable to express yourself as them.. there most be something missing that is not the technique
@@sharpisharp Yes, but the patterns have to serve the music. I'm a guitar/bass player and it's the same with scales. You can practice all the scales and modes in the universe, but if you can't make music with them, you're useless as a musician.
always gotta go "um...ok.. so you see...so..." right after a grove so it's award to applaud... b
appreciate the clap jojo!
this snare tone. from heaven...
Jojo's last comments are some of the most brilliant I've heard from any clinician. Incredible!
jojo mayer did so much for the drummer community, he´s miles ahead of every other drummer.
A very milestone on independence 🙌
JoJo is SUCH a gift to drumming! Outside the box - totally original - and here he explains himself (as we see why he's unique)
This is one of the most important things I've ever heard about music in general, and maybe even about life. What a man.
Jedi master of uncommon ability! Perfect the craft and make music
He's so musical with such a simple pattern.. Amazing
So much material to be inspired by and learn from in this short extract alone. So lucky to have this information at the end of our fingertips.
"Milk every pattern for its potential and, because you've meditated in the zone with it so much, it will sound like You". Sage
indeed, he gives this advice and lesson at the very end of the video for those reading.
This is an absolute art form for him.. and it’s beautiful.
Wax on wax off
Jo jo is sooooooo smart. Love your processing style and brake down
Breakdown.
Tim C true. I suck at remembering stuff like that. Good to be reminded of to fix it. Thx
This is gold
GREAT lesson
One of my Drum Idols !!!
Massive respect to JoJo
I watched this for the third time, but it’s the first time I’ve understood. Wow. ❤
The combination of trained hands with sticks, 1,000's of hours with his kit and his drums are HOT in the mics here.
Brother is total BOSS and we are lucky to have him with us and be blessed by this man's dedication and passion.
Excellent lesson.
just FRL...nice...Thank you again Jojo
Those drums sound so good, the feel is incredible -- what a master. If you watch the video on mute, you can see the quality of his control.
Thanks for posting....so much more in rudiments/patterns to "meditate on" .....the concept of accents in different places isn't new but how often is it focused upon on a daily practice. Thanks Jojo!
I saw him at the Mercury Lounge in NYC several years ago. Amazing drummer. I was standing right next to him by the front of the the stage!!!
Brilliant man, excellent insights. I feel my drumming IQ going up every time I watch him and 2x every time I hear him speak. 😂
his mind is so elevated
Saw this live! His concert that night was amazing.
You Jo Jo - You just made my dishwashing a delightful and educational experience. Thank You!
Such a fascinating thinker and player. He really expands your mind with his approach to his instrument.
Jojo expands my mind every time I see him. His playing and thought process are on another level and he’s able to open up areas that I’d never even considered exploring before. Fantastic !
Those drums are SOOOO pretty!
I'll never forget playing for hours with my buddy paul, who is also a drummer, when we came across Jojo Mayer (through videos)...Great memories and HOURS of practicing came about!
Jojo Mayer = Breakbrain of drums. Awesome!!
Wow! Really amazing accent! That leads to lot of dimensions of drumming! More power to u Jojo Mayer!
I think it's French.
What i mean is drum accents >
Good god, that kit sounds beautiful. Kudos to the sound engineers, too; I've complained about the sound quality of some of the PASIC videos, but this one sounds great.
A great lesson on orchestration/voicing, musicality and creativity. I love it when drummers with amazing technical skills put all of it aside and teach folks about different ways to *think* about playing...
This is how you achieve mastery!
and a beautiful kit too!
He is such a good ambassador. We're lucky to have him.
He's a coated ambassador
Brent McFarlane Unfortunately he's neither, he is a Genera HD.
Now that's how drums should sound. That bass is gorgeous.
Many-a-time that I've heard SONOR's, they sound AMAZING. But the audio feed from the snare does NOT do it any justice; SONOR snares have an incredible smack/crack!!!
It is in his playing, in his hands and in is his heart
Thank you so much for that lesson. I now have a new way to meditate and practice. Jojo IS a Jedi!
incredible mind space... love Jojo.
Brilliant lesson on how to apply real creativity
Jojo is the best !!
yare yare
that bass drum sounds AWESOME
Ok. This three (out of four) beat motif is the one I need to learn. Already kind of learned it. Thanks JoJo!
great teacher and performer
I love that he is so insanely technical and all about the music.
i think this was a demonstration of delving deeper into the mindset and hearing aspects rather than focusing on the technicalities of a simple triplet pattern
Magistral!.. Net, carré, fluide, précis, subtile, une superbe philosophie de la pratique de cet instrument...En somme, une belle personne!..je l'écouterais des heures et des heures.
Jojo is a Jedi.
C'est claire!
That's why he is weak
Not just a jedi he's yoda
Chitin.
Darth Vader I wonder what Darth Vader's example of a great drummer is. If Jojo is Yoda then who is The Emperor, or Darth Vader? Probably Thomas Lang.
Amazing !....
Jojo is my favorite drummer and the reason why I fell in love with Drum N' Bass. He makes the drums sing so well!
Many Thanks...!
Really great spot from Jojo. Always interesting
that snare sound. wow!
Very articulate and precise in his way of explaining/demonstrating...
Oh my God, I watched 16:05-16:15 like 20 times. I chuckled along at the first example he gave, and then he also poked fun of using it in that quick fill context and realized that I was guilty of it too. Jojo is so many leagues ahead of me that just when I think I've done good, he makes fun of the concepts I'm proud I can do lol. He's so good. Love him.
^this hahahahah
Jojo redefines how to play the snare yet again.
Excellent!
Great Advice, Jojo!!
Thank you jojo, i know you never teached one, but in times like Internet, yes People, free philosophic powerfull lesson for every maniac on Shells..listen good and enjoy..grussauszürich!
An absolute genius.
fascinating demo, the professor of the kit
1:05 🤣
Jojo: What is a paradidle?
Audience: quak quak quak quak quak quak!!!!
awesome love me some jo jo. thanks
incredible. when he says he does the same pattern just over the bar line, he really does, even down to the stick hitting the rim (seemingly accidentally) when doing the triplets.
You can unlock the secrets of the universe with this simple lesson
Super cool!
Very instructive!
What a great lesson!!!!
That Drum Kit is beautiful
Inspiring as always
Whoever mic'd his drums, good job!
Great grooves!
Jojo is the zen of drumming.
imo the best today...
Extremely good topic. I’ve seen Mark Guliana talk about similar topics, how do take a basic concept and stretch it out to its full size. I just tried the paradiddles now, not as RLRRLRLL, but as, where I was sitting: armchair-knee-table-table-cup-armchair-knee-knee. Sounded way cooler than RLRRLRLL on a practise pad. :-)
Many of you may not share my thoughts about " The Master" Jojo but I honestly believe that we ate saturated of techniques without concept, I meant, we execute exercises and we eventually add them in our compositions but I still feel that the concept of those moves is missing.
I saw Jojo back in the 2012 and he was amazing but now when I listen Nerve and I listen what he does I realize that everything he plays is based on a concept, you find a concept in literature, you find concept in high quality movies and of course in special music, Jojo ladies and gentlemen has taken drumming into other perspective and level, I hope we can continue counting with his wisdom for long time.
Pure gold!
There clearly is a philosophical side to playing a instrument.
Jojo just wanted you to realize that and express yourself thru whatever pattern feels good to you. That's all, he's trying to do you a favor.
There was a piece I played on toms in college that utilizes this approach of accenting in a pattern bring up other patterns, sort of like phasing on marimba. The secret " way more complicated than it actually is" , is the key.
awesome!!!!
Love his (main) snare sound!
5:30 that beat is so good
Bailey Bisson isnt it ...
agreed
Linear drumming is like a different dimension... I haven't even started exploring it... So much to practice...
omg that snare sounds awesome
genius brother the best drummerr😮😮😮😮💪👈👍👌🙌
A paradiddle is a fish... I’m playing the aquarium by a stream, a stream of consciousness in communication with the mass off the molecular divisions of the ether - and now a pizza - extra cheese.
Best. Drummer. Ever.
Great Artist with talent of teacher, incredible musician
even i am as guitarist learn so many fundamental things that a lot of guitarist is missing at all and first at all ability to hear music. Be creative, music not a sport as many beginners treat it
He's right about limitations, my particular limitations reveal that I can't play any of that.
What a symathic understatement...
L000000l
Basically we can’t get there Jojo
Man, I like ur sincerity!!!!Hhhhhhhh LOL!!!
Haha so true!!!..I love jojo..but ya...lol...#nocompition2jojo
12:00 so sweet ! I heard two drummers! That’s cool
Impeccable posture
at :49 Jojo says "I think everyone in here knows what I'm talking about"
Some guy in the crowd goes "no"
lol
A wiseguy, eh?!
LOL! Now thats some funny stuff right there! Out of the entire auditorium you hear one "No!" BAHAHAHA!
The whole crowd cocks their heads to the direction too lol
Well not the whole crowd but some
Where’s the timestamp
Jo jo for me is the new Mitch Mitchell of drums! RIP Mitch “ Are you experienced!”
Master!!!!
btw, JoJo is a legend already.
Nice!
Super!
Caution, genius at work
