    Funny things happen at NAMM. We were walking around and all of the sudden saw a crowd of people gathering so we checked it out and saw that it was Jojo Mayer setting up to perform with bass player Janek Gwizdala. So we got out the cameras and started shooting!
    If you enjoy this please Like/Share the video, it really helps us out!

    It isn't just his technical facility that amazes and inspires me, it's his musical vocabulary. The way he strings ideas together, it's like poetry to me. He has so many amazing ideas, and he strings them together in such musically inventive ways. I always feel inspired after watching Jojo Mayer! The fact that his cymbal setup sounds awesome is definitely a plus too! Love those AAX Omni cymbals.

    JoJo also played "over the bar line" of 1 sometimes so each drum fill or break doesn't always drop back on 1. His technique is flawless!

  • @DrumeoOfficial

    You're not wrong, they were slightly off at times. Still pretty cool though. Considering the audio (or lack of) setup they had I'm surprised Jojo could hear anything at all.

    Incredible drumming and sick pocket! Btw- the bass player was on time the whole way. All musicians need to remember: it is EVERYONE's job to keep the pulse. Even when there is silence the pulse is in everyone's head. There is no such thing as a 4/5 rhythm... the time signature is 4/4, somewhat of a reggae feel. The true sense of mastery lies in how Jojo comes up with so many creative and exciting ways to embellish a simple, repetitive bass line. Loop a simple bass line and see how long you can groove and embellish on it until it gets old...great way expand your creativity, and musicality.Peace, drummers....and make sure to practice!

    • @DrumChannelJunior
      @DrumChannelJunior 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      A wee fact I learned playing in a jazz band was that it was the bass players job actually to keep time, not the drummers (as much, he/she still had a wee bit of work) but the drummers main job was to provide a back beat or on beat pulse

    • @andramoie
      @andramoie 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

  • @dgrren
    @dgrren 8 ปีที่แล้ว +38

    In straight ahead the bass player plays almost strictly quarter notes so that makes sense that their job is to keep the time. The drummer is much more free to make rhythmic variations and dance in and around the pocket. There are times during the Miles Davis Quintet albums where Tony Williams (drummer) completely drops out abruptly and the rest of the band continues with the same deep pocket, then he makes rhythmic stabs and accents before building up to the full groove again. That's what you call a band, total trust in each other!

      He could very well have PhDs in cultural anthropology and music history & theory and a MA in electrical engineering; the depth and the manner in which he articulates his ideas and methods is most impressive. The speculative hyperbole notwithstanding, he is an absolute beast on the kit with the rare ability to find the grey, improvisational spaces and translating his many, perhaps conflicting ideas into a cohesive and innovative product without compromising the piece or technique. This is the mark of a true innovator.

      I agree Tim, but I must also disagree, there are a lot of drummers out there that incorporate single pedal goodness. For example, and he's in the crowd of this video, Mike Johnston. Look him up. I was also surprised to see JP Bouvet in here, I wish I was an American drummer, so many cool and inspiring dudes!

    @BuddyRichC 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Metric modulation is an actual change in meter from fast to slow or slow to fastHowever, implied metric modulation is a trick or an illusion. We're PRETENDING to speed up or slow down by basing our groove and feel on a different subdivision than we were using originally. JoJo subdivides the 16th and 32nd notes into abnormal groupings then resolves the phrase and drops back on 1 every time. If you watch his hihat it stays on the actual meter along with the bass player. It's absolutely insane..

    I used 5 sources total: A Sennheiser 835 mic dropped down in front of the bass drum, a Zoom H4N shoe mounted on the top of my T4i, then I blended a little bit of the T4i's camera audio and the 2 iPhone 5's camera audio as wide "ambience" mics. The key here were the bass drum mic and the H4N. I was then able to bring everything into Logic at Drumeo HQ and do a proper mix and master.
