    This guy made a DVD which should be bought by every drummer in the world , it's litterally a bible of how to use the stick at their full potential and your body in a way that is energy efficient. Truely my favorite drummer out there.

    I like how electronic music basically came from either sampled drumsounds or analog drum sounds and now gets reintroduced into actual acoustic drums again:P

      ...while imitating drum machines, which are imitating live kit...confusing lol

    Just an absolute master. One of my favorite living drummers and definitely the most creative.

    @JonathanTaylorW Před 10 lety +15

    I think his kick sound is the best thing in this video.

  • @esond
    @esond Před 11 lety +3

    Wow. Playing aside, he really has figured out how to make an acoustic kit sound "digital." That kick sound is spot on!

    As a bassist, I love these videos! Jojo Mayer has so much to offer outside to people! I have to say though... John Davis needs to drop some Textural Technique videos for bass!

    @VQuiZ11 Před 11 lety +1

    Texture and palette, not something a lot of people talk about these days, but I feel as though these are just as if not more important than hand technique or learning the latest lick. People like Jojo and Chris Dave and Mark Guiliana who have this shit down and are in a constant mindset of changing and improving it, these guys are the real deal.

  • @rebusd
    @rebusd Před 11 lety +3

    a lot of people don't know just how solid and groundbreaking Jojo's technique actually is.

  • @joshuavermillion
    @joshuavermillion Před 8 lety +115

    You could give Jojo a cucumber and he'd make it sound good.

    • @chrisshannon9735
      @chrisshannon9735 Před 8 lety +3

      he might as well be a cucumber, you just can't fuck with this guy. he could just take a couple of blenders, a cucumber, and a kit...and still hurt your brain.

    • @JesseP.Watson
      @JesseP.Watson Před 6 lety +3

      I disagree. I don't think he has the lungs to make much of a cucumbist.

    Jojo is fundamental stone for all the drummers of today, and another thing he is historian or the drums (the double pedal commemoration in his performance on modern drummer and now another reference) thats dedication and constant 'outside of the box' thinking. check his work on janek gvizdala and try to emulate.

    • @TheProfessorWilliam
      @TheProfessorWilliam Před 10 lety

      Why would Lars be even watching this video. He is a rock banger and I think he said" I never said that." We ALL have styles we like and don't like. I certainly would not watch a heavy rock video just to send HATE com. I respect all.

    @Vize526 Před 11 lety

    True dude, it's not that much of a complicated beat, but it doesn't look that simple though, at least to me :p I'm a beginner drummer, and I think I could probably do this beat (thnx for confidence btw ^^)... But i would probably have to keep praticing it for a day so that it would come out half a good as this!! I subbed to freedrumlesson a while aggo btw ^^

      @subwoofer6726 Před 6 lety

      And fuck your way of playing; simply put that statement works both ways.
      If I or anyone wants to play "32nd note solos" then that's our business and we're not really concerned with if you like it or not. Most of the time, it's getting camera, studio, and stage/audience time much to many people's biased egotistical begrudgement who can't get past the Buddy Rich years of drumming for the sake of pleasing a dead audience.

    @funky7chunky Před 11 lety

    I see a lot of drummers trying to make obscure sound with their drums and most of the time it just makes me cringe. Why is it Jojo can apply this stuff just so much better than everyone else? He always makes this stuff sound amazing!
