- Jojo Mayer reveals some of his secret weapons for creating modern sounds on the drumset. Developed over years of experimentation with his cutting-edge band Nerve, these concepts push the boundaries of modern music and blur the line between acoustic and electronic music. Try them out for yourself!
snare off, he used the brush to be the snare to have loose or tighter snare effect, wow have never thought of that!
It's just amazing how much drumming has progressed in the past 80 years - from Gene Krupa/Louie Bellson/Buddy Rich to Weckl, Colaiuta, Donati, Minneman, Mayer, Benny J Greb, Wackerman, etc. It's mind blowing all the incredible stuff out there - you could spend thousands of years just listening to this great smorgasbord. If I didn't have to work I'd be down in the basement listening to all this cool shit. Gonna have to marry a rich woman and live out this fantasy!
I hear you brother. Toss Papa Joe into that mix. Another innovative giant.
Any update after 7 years? Also I’d add Gavin Harrison
this guy is my hero. "using it as a muffling device" ...how come i never thought of that, it makes perfect sense and is so useful.
..love how the out-of-tune trumpet so palatable to the ears, just jiving with the percussive drum melody.
Jojo has a groove like no other
man these are great idears
yup, shame it lasted so short.... good things have to come to an end way too soon
that last groove is THE SHIT....so funky it hurts...you gotta love Jojo
Gotta love Jojo Mayer, he's incredible.
Every time I see Jojo, I feel like practicing for long hours! He's such an inspiration.
I'm not a drummer, but I love watching this guy explain stuff.
Truly unique and groundbreaking with all the back story of studying the whole cannon of the drumming history and tradition.
I wish I had a mini Jojo Mayer to carry around with me just so when I'm feeling down, I can pull him out to hear him say "idear". Good stuff.
Jojo has insane technique and groove coming out of his friggin' ears!!! Love listening to him!
Indeed, that was awesome! It looks like Jojo's creativity is endless...
I think it´s amazing when drummers/ musicians/ humans share their knowledge so openly with others. I love it.
Talking about textures...I´ve just uploaded a video that perhaps is useful for you (no, not you, Mr.Mayer. but maybe for somebody else)
What a master of sound he is an inspiration to be a drummer and practice he must always be listening for new sounds Love his playing
jojo always works with such amazing musician teams! love it
Really nice sounds from this jam.
Thanks, I knew it was some sort of EQ but I liked the balance between punch and resonance from that bass drum.
I like this guy when it comes to electronic music.
It’s the most amazing that his techniques are!!
One the Greatest!!!
Filling space with a force-field - that is the art.
btw, he also triggers the bassdrum using a Clavia Nord Drum drum synth (+ Roland trigger on the bass drum), in some of the examples in these Textural Technique videos it's very noticable
I wonder if Jojo could do a great Christopher Walken impression?
Hahaha
MarlosBurgerDrums needs more cowbell
Probably. He’s a really funny dude. Somehow, along with all the time he’s spent mastering his drumming and musical skills, he’s also become a master at card tricks!
WOW ... 2:50
That is a very cool rhythmic effect.
Awesome. Just Awesome
How is that guy doing those effects with the trumpet? Sounds badass
Oh god. Eehh no, God!
I'm impressed. I'm inspired. Thank you!
dude's a genius
exactly
wow! great idears!!
Eye dears all around!
Grande profissional Baterista Acústico excelente qualidade no ensinar e tocar o instrumento parabéns 👏👏👏
What a crazy left foot movememt there while the mini mallets best! Wow! I was like he has to hit that hihat… no wait he really doesn’t! Would love to go on a masterclass ws with topics like that. Lg us de Schwiz!
Love the dreadlocks... all though, just getting back to using them. Been using the SD1 custom generals for metal. SD4 s and brushes, looking for more jojo techniques
That Jojo has lots of "IDEARS"!
Jojo Mayer for drummers is who Guthrie Govan is for guitar players. A phenomenon.
JoJo for Mayer!
i am happy for ths lesson of a control performance
there certainly are people who can groove like that. i think he has some of the best hand and foot technique on the planet but pure groove i'd have to tip my hat to mr. Steve Gadd, Questlove, Steve Jordan, Bernard Purdie and more
Damn is drumming technic are so fresh, he should made an amazing drum sampling loop for Reason or Native Instrument, cause, the rythm he made are realy inspiring for making not only electro music but indus rock or fusion jazz or hip hop.
I like how he shows us to use the dual tone to mute the floortomb but actually makes more contact with his hand to kill the sound :D
I don't actually think there is a need to mute the floor tom. I think it sounds incomplete.
Vic Firth mandated xd
Jojo and his fabulous "idears" ^^
And jojo exclaimed: "Another device that I've been using freakishly for crazy beats"
Great brush technique!
What I like about Jojo is they made drum machines and got rid of alot of drum players but he makes drum machine sounds that sound better than the computers do. That's the best I can describe it anyways. I don't think most drummers are doing brush work and trippy techno music.
I would listen to an LP of that band.
3:51 Love the sound of that beat
Very cool. The hi-hat foot splash is a nice little touch.
Cool sounds.
Holy cow that trumpet player tho.
Nice sound ideas, i really like it
He is a bloody specialist in live acoustic "Jungle"/"Drums n Bass" playing. Ive seen Bands like Apollo 440 playing with two drummers in the 90s... guess Jojo could play that stuff by himself only.
Jojo is the Einstein of the drums.
It looks to me, on the close up of the snare head those things or something, really pitted the head at :55 My guess is if those heavier brushes do that, Vic Firth is not going to want him to mention it. Great drummer
Wow! Neato! Wish I could play a beat like that at my church gig!
Fuck sake !! This guy is so creative"! really inspiring stuff .
MASTER
Love the video! I' m running to the pads! God bless?
bless indeed
Idear
yes great ideas
I'm aware, but the sound from the examples where there's no enhancement, the bass drum still sounds killer.
Amazing guy.
Awesome
that's cool, cheers
the master of finesse....
It's hilarious how silent this bassist is and yet he's enjoying it.
It's because it's a very short floor tom. Short floors always sound nice either miked or not.
I like those Live Wires!
Oh my god this guy is insane. Nobody, NOBODY grooves like that.
still love it!!
I love JoJo, but he really is selling those dual tone sticks. I have had them and hate them. First, the mallet at the end of the stick affects the balance of the stick and makes the 5A side worthless. Also, just use your hand to mute the drum, you have no need to use a mallet for that.
Brent Richards I agree they suck!
I don't think they are worthless. Maybe you haven't been able to find an application for them yet, but I use them all the time when playing with my jazz combos, as well as musicals during tricky stick-change situations. I like the new softer felt that they used for the mallet, as it gives you a much warmer tone, and it's advantageous to have a stick on the other side for smooth transitions between textures.
Sure, they have value, when you don't value stick balance. Personally, I just got creative when it comes to stick changes. There is not a drummer in my percussion ensemble that uses anything like these sticks. but if you like them and have gotten used to them then that's cool. There is just no way I would like these for playing anything swing at least on the 5A side of the stick. I do agree that the mallet side does have a nice tone.
I love Jojo Meyer as much as anybody, but this just seems like a Vic Firth commercial. Use the mallet as a muffling device? That's a stretch. A hand works just fine, thanks.
I did cry about it. I found the end of my swizzle sticks to be a better tissue than mute though...
He used his hand the entire time. COME ON JOJO
No you must use the vic firth mallet. What wrong with you?
Do you want them to stop paying Jojo?
I always notice that too.
Dope..
that groove at 1:10 damnnnn son
Love all this;)
it actually sounds great with both brushes
What a paranormal music !
トップのTシャツお気に入りなのかなー
なんか嬉しい！
great
That's a good idearrrrrrr!
Man I miss when Takuya was his keyboardist. Not that his current one is bad, but I preferred Takuya's choice of sounds and context.
Whats that opening song man? So weird and wonderful.
+newboldspawn "Loot" off of his record "The Distance Between Zero and One"
Ha! Ha! That was God bless!!
Good idee-ers he has
i dig
Thai on a shirt is so awesome! hahaha
not an emad. those have an External Muffling And Dampening ring on them, it looks like an Eq4 coated.
best in the world
what about those weird brushes at the beginning? What are they called?
I was hoping he was gonna say "Idear" lol seriously though, JoJo owns!
Wow
aahh... if only miles would still be alive...
in the black and white slow mo at the beggininglook how much jojo's stick rotates. weird.
MOSTRUOSO...
