@@MM-vs2et Lol! Wtf you mean you "don´t know what that means"..? The tall guy on the right, do you see him? That´s how alot of people feel watching this..
I don't even know how many times I've watched this. These guys share a brain, and I'm not sure which I'm more impressed with. Janek & Jojo together bring tears to my eyes.
i think what makes jojo so great is that NO ONE could ever watch or hear drum and think "i could of thought of doing that" . his fills and switches break your fucking neck.
I can't help but feel I've just witnessed two gods merely taking a stroll. These two groove so hard while making it look like play. The way Janek dancing through the entire performance, while still lining everything up flawlessly is astounding. Jojo doesn't even look like he's trying as he lays down a steady, intricate, and mind boggling groove. Amazing... simply amazing
Best minimalist drummer ever. He uses absolutely every piece of that kit to its full potential. This is one of the best musical pieces I've ever heard. Just incredible
James Crud ed is right you know. As a bassist you have to know when and where is the time to open up, I think he played it perfectly... also, the focus was on JoJo in the beginning, so he had to give the drummer space. It's all about understanding the importance of dynamics.
Holy hell this guy is good. I've seen plenty of super-technical cats before, but no one merges chops with intelligent playing like this guy does. He's like cybergenetic upgraded version of Buddy Rich :D
Regardless of his incredible hand skills, I find him one of the least musical among the well-known drummers. He had a good groove in the first piece, but I agree with other commenters that most of the rest of it was crap and went nowhere, which is the real reason the onlookers were merely standing and watching. Amazing hand skills does not mean all of his work is good music.
The chemistry between these two guys is so flawless. I love how they do this give-and-take thing. They totally get high off of hearing each other do cool shit, very fun to watch.
I always watch these things wondering what it would be like to just walk up with no expectations from this guy, and then he goes full beast mode and blows your mind
Just...wow. I'm so glad I found this. Creative, beyond technical, with spirit. Incomparable. Other worldly. But best of all...MUSICAL. Thank YOU Jojo Mayer and Janek Gwizdala.
When you reach this level you move in the direction of conceptual thinking and let the music take you away to that creative space and just groove. I agree he has the technical skills to do most anything he wants.
Also, this is some of most inspired playing I've heard/seen from him yet. And that is one hell of a bassist too, I'm baffled how he keeps up with some of Jojo's fills without dropping out :o
The video said 18 min and I was like eh I'll jus watch abit. Ended up watching the whole thing because it was so FRESH, TIGHT, ENTERTAINING and it had suspense tht got me lie... And two legendary musicians who know how to play together and even how to create a sound That doesn't just sound good but this is cause they match what is being played
I just appreciate Jojo's playing. Always different with his phrasing and his drum fills are out of this world. Definitely one of my favorite drummers for sure.
0:00 - 5:50: Se7en 5:59 - 13:40: Catachresis (please correct me on this one) 13:41 - 18:30: Tetrastigm That transition from the second one to Tetrastigm tho....
If people can get through a couple minutes intro this is probably one of your most universally loved videos on youtube, give it a sec people , to use a pun let him drop the bass
Well, Janek is not a tech junkie, but boy, he just killed that bass with those pedals! Very mature playing. Jojo, you know, is a beast. Perfect rhythm section.
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Jojo Mayer and having a lesson with him at my university in England for a masterclass.. such a clever and inspiring man.
Jojo Mayer - looks like he was designed by Jim Hensons workshop, sounds like Christopher Walkens' dropout younger brother and is a genius, philosopher and drumming legend. What a dude 😎
Regardless of his incredible hand skills, I find him one of the least musical among the well-known drummers. If he does stumble into a groove for a few seconds, he finds a way to flail himself out of it on the cymbals. This is the umpteenth video of him (and the last one) I've watched hoping that he'll stumble into a groove worthy of his skills.
@@billk9583 It's NAMM, the musicians are paid to flail their(companies) gear. It's not a show of music, it's a show of equipment. I know no one thinks that, but in this context, it's necessary to think that. Even with that aside, I didn't see him fall out of a groove because he's flailing at all.
side story on the right side: 10:15 Asian girl and sweater/watch guy share an eye conversation about a sound heard above. 10:21 object falls from sky. 10:21 through 10:39 sweater/watch guy can't stop thinking about that plastic thing and nabs it
Oh God yes. There aren't that many time signatures or subdivisions in existence, at least I didn't think so. I also love the casual little flicks between traditional and matched grip as required. The bass player ain't bad either.
They say that time does not really exist it is a human construct that helps us to deal with the chaos that is our reality. He has just put every thing in order. Simply magic!
What a story this guy has......from screech from saved by the bell, to world renowned drummer. Does he still hang out w/ Mario Lopez and Tiffany Amber Theissan and the rest of the cast?
leading up to 12:46 he starts to blend the rimshot snare with the 'twang' of the floortom hits close to the floortom's rim. I had to re-watch it a few times to get where the accent overtones from the snare were coming from - I really doubt I could've guessed what was going on without seeing it. fucking genius
6:00 that lil skit, wow, just wow. Thats sounds (both the bassist and jojo) like some computer generated club music, and they are doing it with stapraight instruments, flawless victory gentlemen
10:39 Похоже, что парень нашёл сувенир от Джоджо Маера! 😁 10:20 А вот тут этот "сувенир" приземляется. ✈ пс: слухали и зырили этот ролик раз 20, а заметили это спустя 9 месяцев! 🕘
Jojo Mayer is BOSS in all aspects of drumming. This groove is just sick! That is what you call skill... What the bass player is showing you is not only skill to groove in timing, but 1 of the most important thing in being a musician... That is DISCIPLINE!
Jojo is awesome, o doubt about it, That bass player is also briliant, The 2 did pull of a great show, Nothing 2 fancy, They did something awesome with what they had
🎉 11 years later this is still one of the best Namm performances of All Time Legendary.
More than seven years later, we are all the tall guy on the right.
I don't know what that means
@@MM-vs2et with that quote he's literally won the internet

Please publish a book of these amazing quotes!
🤘🏴
You could almost say this is one of the best drum and bass jams ever recorded...
"You're goddamn right"
ur kiddin
Nope
Jo Jo and Janek.. awesome
Jojo Mayer is impossible.
The bassist is a monster too. They play together like their brains are wired together.
They do have an incredible synergy, it is not for nothing that he always bring him to NAMM lol
Janek is inmense
How's he impossible??? He totally lost time and fucked up on the second song... he obviously human...
@@danielholland7500 timecode please.

I don't even know how many times I've watched this. These guys share a brain, and I'm not sure which I'm more impressed with. Janek & Jojo together bring tears to my eyes.
I thought I was the ONLY one who's watched this 500+ times!
Same! I keep coming back and watching this. Unbelievably cool. Cheers 👍😎🇦🇺
i think what makes jojo so great is that NO ONE could ever watch or hear drum and think "i could of thought of doing that" . his fills and switches break your fucking neck.
his musical mind is on another planet

Lmao they’re both trash “gods” lmao
this is some of the best drumming anybody will ever see and hear
i can never watch this too many times
never boring
Peoples feet are moving and people smiling... a sure sign a good drummer is doing his thing.
Jojo is simply a high grade quality musician who, lucky for us, happens to play the drums to express himself.
Best minimalist drummer ever. He uses absolutely every piece of that kit to its full potential. This is one of the best musical pieces I've ever heard. Just incredible
best maximalist drummer :)
Jojo Mayer can make any drum set sound good
@@MrLince-hr4of Yeah really, guy can blow chops from another planet.
I came because of the drummer. I stayed for the bassist.
He played one note for a really long time...
James Crud
Sometimes, one note is ALL YOU NEED!
James Crud ed is right you know. As a bassist you have to know when and where is the time to open up, I think he played it perfectly... also, the focus was on JoJo in the beginning, so he had to give the drummer space. It's all about understanding the importance of dynamics.
edthewave So I guess "sometimes" I can be a really good bass player? Good to know.
@@jamescrud That dont make sense
Holy hell this guy is good. I've seen plenty of super-technical cats before, but no one merges chops with intelligent playing like this guy does. He's like cybergenetic upgraded version of Buddy Rich :D
Then why is it so boring? Chris Coleman at Namm is more excitement to me!
nohaste4me boring? every morning i listen those songs... you have a different taste and its like comparing nuggets to gourmet cooking...
He has chops and also very musical.
how are you even comparing them? completely different players
Regardless of his incredible hand skills, I find him one of the least musical among the well-known drummers. He had a good groove in the first piece, but I agree with other commenters that most of the rest of it was crap and went nowhere, which is the real reason the onlookers were merely standing and watching.

The guy with the black shirt right in front of Jo Jo got unplugged from the Matrix from watching that shit.
LMFAO
And here i'm back, 9 years late, i'm still blasted by these fellowmans, thank you Janek and Jojo for such an inspiring music act! 🙏🙏
Ich watch this vid at least 2 times per year and especially the first part keeps giving me goosebumps every single time 👍🏻❤️
I always watch these things wondering what it would be like to just walk up with no expectations from this guy, and then he goes full beast mode and blows your mind
Just...wow. I'm so glad I found this. Creative, beyond technical, with spirit. Incomparable. Other worldly. But best of all...MUSICAL. Thank YOU Jojo Mayer and Janek Gwizdala.
Hey that's me sitting in back of the drums to the left of Jojo. Love his playing awesome!
Beautiful groove,amazing wrists,fabulous technique.Here is someone that understands why technique is so important.Viva JoJo Mayer.
Viva la independencia,
Viva Miguel Hidalgo,
Viva México
Viva México
Viva México!!!!
Ok no mojo is amazing,
When you reach this level you move in the direction of conceptual thinking and let the music take you away to that creative space and just groove. I agree he has the technical skills to do most anything he wants.
even jojo made some kind of dubstep, I like that he is an open person and his drum & bass/jungle is amazing, feels natural
Also, this is some of most inspired playing I've heard/seen from him yet. And that is one hell of a bassist too, I'm baffled how he keeps up with some of Jojo's fills without dropping out :o

Thank you.
Drums and Bass guitar, perfect symbiosis
2024 and Jojo is still one of if not the most under recognized player on the planet.
I just appreciate Jojo's playing. Always different with his phrasing and his drum fills are out of this world. Definitely one of my favorite drummers for sure.
BEST DRUMMER OF ALL TIME!! ALIVE AND LIVING AMOUNG US...PEOPLE WILL ARGUE OF GREATS THAT HAVE GONE..BUT ITS RIGHT THERE....JOJO MAYER.
Jebus, the guy's fucken good but I wouldn't go that far.
Lol, there's no such thing as the best drummer of all time. Relax.
One of the slickest drummers on the planet.
His sticking on the ride is second to none. Amazing grooves and timing!
I could watch him play for hours on end. Amazing drummer!
0:00 - 5:50: Se7en

Well, Janek is not a tech junkie, but boy, he just killed that bass with those pedals! Very mature playing. Jojo, you know, is a beast. Perfect rhythm section.
Imagine if Jojo Mayer jams with Tom Jenkinson (Squarepusher)
Take my money.
ok, I imagined it
I had the absolute pleasure of meeting Jojo Mayer and having a lesson with him at my university in England for a masterclass.. such a clever and inspiring man.
Seen this video multiple times and it still blows me away how much control Jojo has when playing.
Jojo Mayer - looks like he was designed by Jim Hensons workshop, sounds like Christopher Walkens' dropout younger brother and is a genius, philosopher and drumming legend. What a dude 😎
everything is in good taste with this guy. no fluff, everything adds

@@billk9583 Don't know if you've seen the world of drummers out there, but I find the wankery levels are usually way higher.

This guy's is awesome ...and the bass player was just jamming out..loved it ....
I think it's the 20th time i am viewing this performance... Jojo is incredible, so is Janek. A prefect duo !!
WOW! That bass player is nuts! JOJO mayer is next level!
jojo mayer the octopus
Always enjoy watching you play. Some great grooves.
Janek's pedal video sent me here. Glad I watched this, as it was quite an amazing spectacle. Totally next-level playing.

better than 50 shades of grey
Souvenier time!
Nice observation!
literally bringing the house down!
amazing!! love the breakdown around the 14minute area
Oh God yes. There aren't that many time signatures or subdivisions in existence, at least I didn't think so. I also love the casual little flicks between traditional and matched grip as required. The bass player ain't bad either.
Holy. fucking. shit.
Until an hour ago, I'd never heard of Jojo Mayer or Janek Gwizdala. Now I want them to adopt me.
big props.. that was some amazing bass playing and amazing teamwork... just freakin amazing
I'd love to hear a Jazz band with rhythm group like that.
+andramoie Hear Janek Gwizdala album It Only Happens Once, with Jojo Mayer and Mark Guiliana at drums
Skalpel has a feel kinda like that
+Lucas Machado dos Santos Holy shit that exists? :O
***** Yes, is a very good album. I recommend The Kandinsky Effect too. A amazing trio, who mix jazz, eletronica and rock.
+andramoie Gogo penguin ;)
he knew exactly where he was in the groove the whole time. i give up. gonna go sit on my sticks now !
Whatever dropped on the stage, the tall guy has it 10:38 😁 Jojo is amazing
the 1st track mega gr8!! even cant count how many times i watched that!!!
Those 66 dislikes are Lars Ulrich¨s fans...
Galwi nope,he's not bad,juz trrible
Jabby Jab that cracked me up!
to be honest its just lars ulrich voting over and over again, he doesn't have any fans left.
He's the best mono thingy guy ever
No we Lars fans are also Tomas Haake fans who are also Jojo fans. We're just not one dimensional like you.
03:20, 04:20, 09:45, 13:40, 15:39, 16:00, There are so many epic little licks and grooves but these ones just blew my mind!
03:20 04:20 09:45 13:40 15:39 16:00 Without commas your time infos become time stamps 😉
Thank You Jojo!!!
They say that time does not really exist it is a human construct that helps us to deal with the chaos that is our reality. He has just put every thing in order. Simply magic!
The older jojo gets the better he gets
That fill that starts at 2:21 (with a missed note as well lol) made me shout "OH!".... sort of like someone offended me, in a good way.
always.…take back one brave.
tenyears i keep watching!
merci à toi sonorusa pour cette immense moment de bonheurs
This sounds so freakin awesome!!! Make the bass a bit louder and I would listen to this 24/7! My fav part is from the beginning up to 5:50
What a story this guy has......from screech from saved by the bell, to world renowned drummer. Does he still hang out w/ Mario Lopez and Tiffany Amber Theissan and the rest of the cast?
Lord, I could listen to this all day.
The precisest bass i have ever heard. Dude, youre the best,
London Garage Music In The House...........
Bass player is killing
Crazy pedal board... Both are totally awesome
one of the most musical performances of all time. an icon Jojo. every drummer should have a poster of that drummer in his/her drum room!
9:41 "HALFTIME!"
leading up to 12:46 he starts to blend the rimshot snare with the 'twang' of the floortom hits close to the floortom's rim. I had to re-watch it a few times to get where the accent overtones from the snare were coming from - I really doubt I could've guessed what was going on without seeing it. fucking genius
the second song is amazing.it gives me goosebumps and a smile 2 my face
6:00 that lil skit, wow, just wow. Thats sounds (both the bassist and jojo) like some computer generated club music, and they are doing it with stapraight instruments, flawless victory gentlemen
I’m high af and this sounds good 👌🏽
Me too. Tomorrow i had to work. I have to wake Up at 6:00. It is 00:51 Now.

90 people dislike this. Really?
6:45 EVERYBODY DO THE BASS PLAYER DANCE!!!! LOL :D
They are both fantastic! For me Jojo Mayer is by far the most refined and sophisticated drummer on the planet. He is always 100% rhythmical!
I honestly don't know who I'm more impressed with....Jojo Mayer or any other musician who can keep up with him. ;-)
Jojo is awesome, o doubt about it, That bass player is also briliant, The 2 did pull of a great show, Nothing 2 fancy, They did something awesome with what they had
Lars Ulrich seems to have 184 TH-cam accounts and growing!
can't believe audiences are so calm infront of this awesome performance! definitely makes me wanna buy sonor drum too
that is called the Jojo Mayer mind trick.
The guy in black to the right shaking his head in awe is exactly how i feel. I`m so grateful for my hearing right now.
fuck this dude can jam
Anyone know the name of the song he starts about 6:00?
