Benny's floor tom so deep, you can find oil down there
:-)
But i mean what about his snare sounding like a legit tom✊🏼
I always try to copy it. Key word TRY lol 😂
Delete this! The Americans will find it
Ha ha ha ha ha! So funny like comedy man for the joke make clever. i get joke and laugh so loud
Beautiful..
you look familar, can't remember where from...
@@benjams9108 hm same
The stank face at 9:52. Glad to see Zack here.
god damn it i was just watching your latest fiverr video... didn't expect you here;))
Hi zacky
Benny’s floor tom is the most beautiful sounding thud ever
The "thud" comes from doubling the tom with the bass drum (I think).
@@Tormalchio doesn't look like it, at least not all the time. if he is, he's barely tapping the bass.
@@Tormalchio it comes from how he tunes it and the fact that he puts cotton balls in it.
It cured my constipation 💩
This is how 2 of the best drummers in the world communicate without talking
? Jojo is not one of the best drummers in the world.
@@dikbeats2720 Why?
@@JoelAzia I find him annoying and very overrated. Benny however is not.
However this jam was a bore to watch.
@@dikbeats2720 then bye
@@dikbeats2720 Sorry, but I think you don’t understand music.
HEADPHONES RECOMMENDED!!! The sound in that room is INCREDIBLE!!! Most certainly enjoyed this one!! Thanks guys!!
Truth
I took your advice. Not disappointed.
two drummers actually jamming! instead of just trading. so rare, maybe the first iv seen. They are making music and not just have a big solo over the top each other.and the result? two voices, one mind. Beautiful.
well spoken my friend.
Listen to the one by Ari hoenig and Dan weiss
very rare, not like you comment lol 🤭
in-f#ck1ng-deed
Really? Made me fall asleep.
It took these guys ten minutes to get where everyone else would start. It's a great example of how not to "blow your load" in the first thirty seconds of a solo.
one of the greatest drum duets ever . No overplaying. No competition just pure playing beautifully together . Two of the greatest drummers playing together this is just amazing.
Not showing up to show up, but to work in concert creating beauty.
When two gods communicate.
We must also salute the sound system which is extremely good quality
Jojo
Two of the best technicians and interpreters of rhythm and music there is.
Jojo holding down those brushes in the beginning was awesome.
Wish I could flam my feet like Benny lol
This is what drumming is all about... Grooving, having fun and communicating!
Creativity at its peak!! ❤
wow , two masters at work . very cool experience
No ego. Simply two percussive geniuses creating rhythm.
Benny‘s floor tom…awesome!
When it comes to drumming, there's nothing more precise and beautiful than Jojo's hands in action.
I was there. I was absolutely amazing!
I just loved how comfortable these guys are in their skins. They have nothing to prove, no-one to impress and as a result they were just free to create and flow in the moment. Thanks for a sublime 14 minutes guys.
How does this not have tons and tons of views??? It's an absolutely captivating performance 🤯
무언가 소리를 만들어가는 과정! 살아있는 소리! 심장이 뛰는
사람 둘이서 만들어가는 소리!
울림! 리듬! 그리고 ...
숨소리와 맥박... 또 진정한 드럼악기로 표현하는 언어!!!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
💯🔥🔥🔥🔥✌️
Who says playing the drums is just making noise? These two masters make the drums sing.
An amazing conversation between two great musical minds!
There were parts of this that felt like they could be used in a movie score. No other instruments would be necessary either.
reminded me of a suped up version of the wrench and numbers theme from the fargo soundtrack
@@La_sagne Totally!
So Birdman with Antonio Sánchez
@@angelssanchezluna2179 That’s it! I was trying to remember which movie I watched recently that had drums as the only instrument as the soundtrack.
I was thinking the same thing
In an age where “Drum Solos” are abundant, this performance leaps out! It took me on a journey, showing beautiful dynamic and rhythmic landscapes. I can honestly say, that was as close to perfection as it can get. Inspiring beyond belief. Thank you soo much for share Benny.
Maybe because it's a duet and not a solo?
Yeeeees! @@ajdrums8075. Thank you soo much for that valuable insight. The fact it's a "duet" is and not a "solo" is why it was soo good. Not the masterful playing and musicality of these 2 particular players. I'm sure I would have appreciated it just as much had it been any other drummers performing, so long, of course, it was a "duet" and not a solo. Please disregard my former comment as from your superior observation was purely based on the idea of a solo improvision and clearly does not apply in this circumstance.
@@TroyGrech_In2Drums Hahaha triggered! I found it funny you put quotation and capslock on "Drum Solos" when it is a duet that's all. Feel free to send a link to a solo from either of these master drummers that sound better than this duet? I don't know of any. Why? Because you can't layer the sounds and ideas like this duet as a soloist even if you have Donati like independence and interdependence.
LOL! @@ajdrums8075 triggered!? Each to their own. Like everyone else, you are entitled to your opinion on anything, and that is totally fine. But honestly, your above comment on my use of grammar to describe the feeling of inspiration this video sparked in me as a player to progress on my own musical journey actually says more about you than anyone else here. It seems sad that people on the internet are compelled to bring others down in an effort to bolster their own personal insecurities. If arguing an insignificant point about a comment on a video really makes you feel better about yourself. Then I conceded. You are right. Have a great day.
@@TroyGrech_In2Drums Have a great day too man and good luck with your journey. One tip, choose one or two exercises and exhaust them don't have several things going at once that you don't master and completely own otherwise it won't get used in a live situation. Peace
the sound of jojo kit is like a Chianti wine, perfectly blended warm but punchy and makes you tipsy
You should find a job describing things, that was perfect!
Ugh ...
His drumming would perhaps go well together with liver and fava beans then. 🤫🐑🐑
Sangiovese grosso can be tannic and bitter. No bitterness in this solo...
Not competing, playing... Making music. awesome!
So. Many. Colours!
The phrase starting at 11:44 is my favorite, ending in the bell if the ride. Love that so much.
its really just jojo's style, he's this groovy everywhere
I simply love you guys
Man, that was great. Not a competition - two musicians playing off each other and with each other. Serious.
Wtf.. drum solo that is engaging and not boring at all? Whoa there!
When two of the greatest virtuosos of pocket and groove come together, the inner peace you feel trancends comprehension
I love the drumsound of Benny Mayer but Jojo Grebs is also very nice! Its so cool how their signiture sounds and grooves combine
Someone take the bait, take it!
@@dng4679 lol
@@dng4679 you didnt get it bigbrain
Dude...!.... Its mayor grebs n benny jojo... Get it right
Extremely tasteful and groovy. Magical!
Normally when i've seen two drummers play at the same time it sounds like the drums have been pushed down a set of stairs. It's a mess of noise and clashing parts. This was so tasteful and musical. Great stuff!
This is what happens when two talents don't feel the need to show off and push as many notes as posible into the room... just great airy groove with nuace and taste
Jojo’s brush work is so freaking clean
High level of drumming absolutely , but really enjoy to watch this ❤️🔥
2 Greatest Drummers Today in 1 Frame..
The.... Freakin.... Business!!!!!!!! That room the intimate vibe, the SOUND!!!! 🤯🤯 and then the artists.. Wow to the max!! Wish I was there..
Two of the best drummers Europe came up with the last 15-20 years. Beside Marco Minnemann and Thomas Lang. Very inspirational.
Awwwww should've gone for longer! lol Gahhhh watching again
Did I just watch a 13 minute ad for Sonor drums?! They sound incredible.... and not many drum brands would hold up their end of the deal for this level of masterful playing
All the major brands would do just fine.
@@farshimelt while I’ve seen Benny make a toy SpongeBob kit sound passable before, Sonor really is a cut above the rest. Germans don’t fuck around, and they’re one of the very oldest drum companies in existence. Lots of time to perfect their quality and sound. Chris Heuer (incredible drum builder/ guru who fixes and spruces up kits so they sound their absolute best) has gone on record as saying Sonor is the only brand that he has never found a bearing edge issue with straight from the factory.
best bit of drumming i’ve heard in a long time
I have been waiting my entire life for this video. Thank you.
I met Steve Smith a while back and he said let the music guide you. Exemplified here so very beautifully. I keep coming back to this video :)
Jojo Mayer = one of the primary reasons I bought my first kit 20 years ago :D
Guys, there was the collaboration of the century for me!! So grateful for that!😍
The Jojo face at 7:03 say it all, pure emotion!! So cool the orchrestation space Benny chooses...
that was absolutely delicious drumming.
I was just imagining how insane being in that room would be. huge inspiration
Thank you Benny finally for this video. Such a great dialogue.
That was absolutely incredible. Both Grebb and Mayer played with so much groove and creativity not covering each other up once but accenting each other.
Wow guy's this is what i call music !
Illegal Tom Bass sounding on Benny Greb's side.
Perfect jam, you couldn't expect less with these drum gods.
Bestial! Catártico!! 👏👏👏👏
Zero ego...just magic, wow.
From micro to macro finesse. Two incredible talents.
My 2 favourite drummers impro 🥳
a min and 30 seconds in and already got goosebumps
Zar ...paa ...dooooos.!!
🥁🔥🔥🥁
Very captivating... I went into a trance listening to it on my headphones...
Both gentlemen with finesse on the drums. Each has a time to speak. 💙
The TWO CREATIVES!
As much as I love watching two drummers trade eights shedding their soul out, I think I love this a bit more
The 2 guys that got me listening to the drums. the groove umph!
Best!!! Best!!! Best!!! 👏👏👏👏👏🥁🥁🎉
Oh my ..... That was so so so good
Waoooo completly insane, best drummers in the world!
This is real drumming. Real creative. Real smart.
Only 2.5 minutes in, and I feel euphoria... this is beautiful. I love seeing people really "feel" their instrument.
I am like, why are you both doing this. 😅 This is the first drumming that made me engaged in it until the full video. I was like what's next, and also wait let me listen what's going on. It's so joyful and exciting to listen to. Bang on!!! 🎉
Percussion Discussion Extraordinaire 🤘🏽
actually felt like they're talking. beautiful.
Beautiful symphony
I wanna live forever in that room
Two masters making magic, just thankful this was captured on video and shared. Thank you!
Two beasts I mean I loved them both
so much music!!!!
I cant comprehend how much I love Jojo Mayer. I only wish he came back to his style with Takuya Nakamura.
That´s pure art. love it.
thank you
A vibrant conversation with absolutely zero back and forth mimicking.
Very nicely done- good feel, no over the top “ I can play faster and louder than you” they complemented each other and developed that wonderful blending of two kits, two minds. Just great....
This is so good its as if they were talking but in a whole different language that we can understand but not through the words of the mouth.
2 MASTER QUÉ MARAVILLA SU TÉCNICA Y CREATIVIDAD
🎵❤️🎶👍🇨🇱👋
Can’t wait to wake up and play some grooves tomorrow
The mix sounds amazing. One of the best I’ve heard in a while
My two biggest idols in drumming. Each with such different sound and style. Love how real this feels because of the improvisation!
so good for the drum. artist make sounds so beauty. to master man play for the love play together people watch in seat
This is a dream come true, thank you!
13 minutes of bliss!
Two phenomenal musicians, so in sync. Creative and technical. So inspiring! Saw you at a drum workshop in NZ back in 2008 or so. Still watching, admiring and learning. Jojo is a new introduction to me but also incredible.
11:46-11:54 Such a beautiful phrase!!
Oh man, this is what my soul needed...
Wow! That intro was amazing.
magic...omg imagine bein in that room!
Experts in taste, restraint, musicality and placement of beats.
