Mad Sky julkaisee debyyttialbuminsa Lion Rising toukokuussa ja julkkarikeikka nähdään legendaarisen Storyvillen lauteilla pe 23.5.2025. Bändi nojaa vahvasti 70-lukulaiseen southern/hard rock/blues rock perinteeseen. Mad Skyn nokkamies on pitkästä selostajaurastaan MTV Sportilla ja Canal+:lla tunnettu Taikku Taivainen alias Mad Jay Skywalker. Keikkarumpaliksi valikoitui monissa liemissä keitetty vuoden 2007 Idols-voittaja Ari Koivunen. Albumilla rummuissa kuullaan Anton Nisosta (mm. Fear of Domination, Pahan Ikoni, Vetten Äpärät). Bassoa soittaa mm. Pyhä Yrjänästä tutuksi tullut Kimmo Koivunen ja toisessa kitarassa on lahtelainen Tommi Suuronen (mm. Eka Kerta, Toka Kerta). Sami Ruokangas ja Juha Kakkuri jututtivat Mad Sky -bändin Taikkua ja Aria levyn julkaisun alla. Jutuissa mennään Mad Skyn tyylistä ja vaikutteista yleisempään livemusiikin ainutlaatuiseen taikaan ja vaaran tunteeseen.

Whilst sifting through old drives for B-Roll for another video I found this old overhead shot of me working on a Till Brönner transcription from a few years back. Obviously I don't set up the camera and makes videos like this every time I transcribe something, but I do make a habit of transcribing on a regular basis. As my ear gets stronger, the material I'm transcribing tends to change. It's quite rare these days to be transcribing linear ideas for instance as I've done so much of that over the past three decades. I'm more curious now about harmony and chord voicings, and how those might work for orchestration and arrangement purposes when I'm in writing-mode. As you can hear from this very raw voice note made with my phone, I'm focusing on harmonic development for this new album I'm planning to record in Europe later in the year. I'm working towards recording the trio (possibly Jojo Mayer and Tom Cawley) in the south of Germany, and then hopping over to Sofia to record the New Bulgarian Voices on top of the trio right after. Layering elements of Jazz, European folk music, electronic music, and some of my biggest influences from the classical world like Chopin, Brahms, Messiaen, Mahler, Schubert, Ravel and Rachmaninoff, is something incredibly exciting to me. Knowing I have access to some of the greatest musicians, engineers, and studios out there gives me a lot of hope that no matter what we do in the studio, we will make music we love. And when you add in the possibilities a choir could generate… I start to get a real buzz about the project even when we're so many months away. This is a clip from my daily practice routine that I'm constantly documenting to make sure ideas aren't lost. The one recurring melody throughout this improvised clip could end up being the main theme for a choral arrangement for instance. You just never know. That's why I felt compelled to share these three things today. * The transcription clip represents where I'm coming from and the crazy amount of hours I've put into transcription and ear training over the years. * The audio clip gives you an idea of how I'm constantly making short voice notes of compositional ideas. * And the video clip is looking forward to this year's recording projects as I continue to write as much as possible every day, and get used to a new instrument so I'm in the best place possible when the red light goes on to record. As always, be sure to stream the latest album with Mark Turner, John Ellis, Gretchen Parlato, Jojo Mayer, Elliot Mason, Gregoire Maret, and Tim Miller for free wherever you listen to music.

Ok, I promise I won't be promoting my book forever—but give me at least a few weeks to talk about it (I'm proud of it!). And hey, the sooner you grab a copy, the sooner you'll stop feeling guilty... and, well, left out. In this episode, I read a few excerpts from my new book, Drummers on Drumming. You'll hear stories and song choices from incredible drummers like Jason McGerr, Madden Klass, Jojo Mayer, Noa Kahn, Andrew Marshall, Michael Benjamin Lerner, and Brendan Buckley. These highlights give you a taste of the insights and inspiration you'll find in the book. I hope you enjoy these glimpses into the creative minds of today's top players. --- Get Your Copy of the 'Drummers on Drumming' Book Today!

This week's guest is Jojo Mayer. I am in the midst of a project that has me going through a bunch of our past episodes (I will be announcing this project shortly and I'm super excited about it), but when I went back through the Jojo's episode, I was reminded of its importance. Jojo is mind-blowing player who helped pioneer the drum n bass movement in New York City by “reverse engineering” programmed drum loops and applying them to the drum set. He is also revered for his exceptional technique, which he dissects in the wildly-popular instructional series titled “Secret Weapons For The Modern Drummer Parts 1 & 2”. He is the leader of his own band, Nerve, which he founded back in 1997. We don't necessarily stick to the normal format in this one; Jojo is a great storyteller. We start off with a few anecdotes about a cymbal once-owned by Billy Higgins that Jojo picked up by happenstance and Jojo's time spent “studying” with Freddy Gruber, but we certainly touch on a lot of Jojo's opinions / perspectives regarding accepting influences, but knowing when they're actually a detriment to your personal growth on the instrument. He's a very philosophical man and shares quite a few nuggets of slap-you-in-the-face style wisdom. Even though this is probably one of our most-downloaded episodes over the life of the show, we've been getting a lot of new listeners and I wanted to push this towards the top because, well…it's important. I've cleaned it up a bit and put a cute lil bow in it. Stay tuned for my fun little project announcement, but in the meantime…please enjoy my chat with my esteemed guest, Jojo Mayer. Cheers!  Call / Text Me your picks @ (424) 253-6676 Just state: ⁃            Your name ⁃            Where you're calling from  ⁃            A little backstory of yourself as a drummer (whatever you feel comfortable  with…but do some self promotion, we all want to support you!)

Email an: felix@einfachschlagzeug.de Grüezi mitenand! Dave Kobrehel ist Schweizer Drummer und aus mehreren Gründen entfuhr mir bei der Recherche zum Interview ein "Say what?" Beispiele gefällig? Gern! Dave spielt mit einem Fuß Bass-Drum wie manch anderer es mit zweien nicht zustande bringt. "Sliding Technik" ist da das Zauberwort und in der Tat nicht nur sehens- sondern auch hörenswert - Ich sage: "Say what?" Dave hat 87.000 Follower auf Instagram - der 87k Mann aus der Schweiz - I say "WHAT!!" Und darüber hinaus ist Dave jemand, der Professionalität ganz klar in den Vordergrund stellt, aber dabei ebenso einen Blick in sein Seelenleben zulässt. Nicht immer ist alles so hochglänzend perfekt, wie es scheint. Vieles ist Arbeit, Ausprobieren und vor allem ein Kompromiss. Und wie dieser Kompromiss aussieht, wie er es beispielsweise schafft ein intaktes Familienleben mit Frau und Kindern mit seiner Passion Drums und Musik unter einen Hut zu kriegen, das erzählt er ganz offen - dafür nicht nur ein "Say what" von mir, sondern vor allem mein ganzer RESPEKT! Ich würde sagen, ein Talk mit Kollegen lohnt sich IMMER! Darum wünsche ich euch viel Spaß mit diesem Trommel Talk!

«Ein magischer Moment», so beschreibt Hebamme Fiona Hefti die Geburt eines Menschen. Die 42-jährige trifft auf Schlagzeuger Jojo Mayer, der als einer der innovativsten Schlagzeuger der Gegenwart gilt. Fiona Hefti und Jojo Mayer, zwei Persönlichkeiten auf der Suche nach Inspiration. 2004 wurde die damals 24-jährige Fiona Hefti «Miss Schweiz». Als «Miss Perfect» wurde sie bezeichnet und gehörte zu den beliebtesten und schönsten Schweizerinnen. Vor 7 Jahren hat die Zürcherin ihren Traumberuf erlernt. Heute arbeitet die 3-fache Mutter als Hebamme in einer Geburtsklinik. Die Frau, das Kind und die Familie bei der Geburt in ihrem ganz persönlichen Prozess zu begleiten und zu unterstützen erachtet Fiona Hefti als grosses Privileg. Jojo Mayer ist in Rom, Hongkong und am Zürichsee aufgewachsen. Als Sohn eines Schweizer Jazzmusikers kam er früh in Berührung mit Klängen und Rhythmen. Als junger Mann wanderte der heute 60-jährige in die USA aus und spielte in den angesagtesten Clubs von New York. Wenn Jojo Mayer spielt dann zieht er mit seiner Technik und seinem Gespür für Musik das Publikum in seinen Bann. Heute macht er Musik mit Menschen und künstlicher Intelligenz, immer auf der Suche nach Weiterentwicklung und Inspiration. Die Gesprächssendung «Persönlich» von Radio SRF 1 kommt am 30. April 2023 live aus der Livestage des Radiostudios Zürich. Die Veranstaltung kann nur auf Anmeldung besucht werden.

Desde la Vía Jojo Mayer, el Cardenal Negro ordena un ataque sorpresa sobre los refugiados de la Federación Musical residentes en el planeta Nova. Los habitantes de Nova se defienden utilizando la famosa arma diseñada por el sargento Fafián llamada Cosmic Krautrock, la cual envía a las hordas invasivas a otra cuerda temporal, avejentando así a sus tripulantes. Gracias a una disminución de brillo en la intensidad de la estrella Bahama Mamma provocada de manera artificial desde la Sinfoprise, los pérfidos atacantes enviados por el Cardenal Negro desisten en su ataque y dejan en paz a los novenses. La Sinfoprise se toma entonces un descanso, el cual aprovechan los odiados Arroyo Brothers para comunicar a la tripulación sus calificaciones. ¿Tendrán que ser destituidos a causa de su ineptitud o conseguirán mantenerse en sus puestos?

This week's guest is Guy Licata. Guy is most recently known as the founder of Reflexx Practice Pads (now the Zildjian Reflexx Conditioning Pad), but Guy is more than just a business owner; he's a master player himself. While he's a very-sought after teacher himself, Guy has studied with the greats including Jim Chapin and Jojo Mayer, which we get into during the episode. He's played with countless artists over the years including Museum of Love (fronted by LCD Soundsystem's Pat Mahoney), Santigold, Head Automatica, Shakira, RAC, Fischerspooner and many, many more. He's a fountain of energy with a passion for talking drums that makes my job as a host very easy. He also prepared Emmy Award-winning actor Riz Ahmed for his role as a drummer in Amazon Studios film ‘Sound of Metal' where he was tasked with all aspects of the drum set instruction and preparation for the role over an intensive seven-month period, with Riz having no formal experience as a drummer. We discussed that experience for a ‘Part 2' of our conversation coming out at a later date, but for the time being, please enjoy my conversation with Guy Licata as he dissects the top 5 influences that shaped the way he approaches the instrument. We talked for a while prior to pushing record, so you're jumping into a moving train right off the bat.

In today's episode of Dreams Not Memes I speak to Jason/Tsung-Yuan Lee. Jason is a Taiwanese classical/jazz/world music violinist, multi-instrumentalist (piano, bass, guitar, drum, erhu, cello), composer, sound designer and an electronic musician. In 2017 Jason appeared and composed music for the film “Accommodation”. He also appeared on Dream Theater's “Along for the Ride” tour and live released DVD “Breaking The Fourth Wall”. In 2015, Jason Lee toured in China with his Chinese/Jazz fusion quartet for the first time and was interviewed by Huaxia Magazine as the theme of the month- “The rising star of the music world”. And later on, went on a sold-out tour with Yo-Yo Ma's silkroad Ensemble branch project in 2018. In 2017, Tsung-Yuan join The Boulanger Lab as a musical software developer, directed by the creator of Csound computer language, Dr. Richard Boulanger. During 2018-2020 Jason was the co-leader of string revolution funk/rock band “2 Birds Band”, the great modern violin pioneer Jean-Luc Ponty has once commented on the band, “I'm glad to see young compatriots at a level that I rarely hear!”. The band is a unique strings-based ensemble with a rhythm section that explores the boundaries of violin and cello through different styles of music. Fusing classical tradition and contemporary styles, the band presents a new way of approaching strings with a sound both cultured and groovy. It has been performing and teaching clinics in Boston, New York, Toronto and France. The band has released 3 albums First Flight (2015), For Lack Of A Better World (2016) and String Groover (2017). Through recent years, Tsung-Yuan (Jason) Lee has worked and performed with many renowned musicians from modern jazz innovators such as, 4-time Grammy winner Terence Blanchard; 2-time Grammy winner Jacob Collier; modern drummer Jojo Mayer; Mark Guiliana, modern guitarist David Fiuczynski, to King of Chinese Pop Lee Hom Wang; to classical musicians including 4-time grammy winner Eugene Friesen; grammy-winning Yo-Yo Ma's Silkroad Ensemble, to Hollywood Oscar nominated composer AR Rahma, progressive rock band Dream Theater; electronic music composer Robert Rich; oud master Simon Shaheen and suona master Yazhi Guo. In our conversation, Jason and I speak about his experiences with playing the violin and exploring his love for music and how he has been able to work on music in New York and Taiwan.

This week's episode is nothing but good vibes. We've got Carson Gant aka @oneupdrumvids on the show. Carson's ability to recreate classic loops and drum breaks on the acoustic kit is unmatched, but not so much in the vein of Jojo Mayer, Adam Betts, or Richard Spaven (which I know I've described in a similar way), Carson focused more on the slower, hip-hop style grooves that might SEEM a little more approachable in comparison to the drummers I just mentioned, but ohhhhh no. Believe me, there are a lot of nuances within a groove that are only exposed at a slower tempo…at least in comparison to drum n bass. This has been a long time coming because Carson has been a busy little Canadian bee launching a website providing different take on the classic loop library system called oneupdrumvids.com which we also talk about during the show. Please enjoy my conversation with Carson Gant on all things groove and the top 5 influences that made him into the drummer he is today.  Podcast Artwork by Trevin Frame For more information on Big Fat Snare Drum, check out www.bigfatsnaredrum.com and follow us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and TikTok

My guest this week is Mr. Jojo Mayer…a mind-blowing player who helped pioneer the drum n bass movement in New York City by “reverse engineering” programmed drum loops and applying them to the drum set. He is also revered for his exceptional technique, which he dissects in the wildly-popular instructional series titled “Secret Weapons For The Modern Drummer Parts 1 & 2”. He is also the leader of his own band, Nerve, which he founded back in 1997. We don't necessarily stick to the normal format in this one; Jojo is a great storyteller. We start off with a few anecdotes about a cymbal once-owned by Billy Higgins that Jojo picked up by happenstance AND Jojo's time spent “studying” with Freddy Gruber, but we certainly touch on a lot of Jojo's opinions / perspectives regarding accepting influences, but knowing when they're actually a detriment to your personal growth on the instrument. He's a very philosophical man and he shares quite a few nuggets of slap-you-in-the-face style wisdom.

Nach dem Eric und Felix letzte Woche mit Prof. Lars Donath zum Thema "Trainig und Trainingsmethoden im Sport" reden konnten, geht es diese Woche darum, ob sie finden, dass die Fragestunde beim Prof das gewünschte Ergebnis hatte. Ob sich Erkenntnisse mehren liessen und ob beide jetzt schon trommeln wie Jojo Mayer gepaart mit Buddy Rich. Dieses mal wieder der richtige Talk um sich ein Bier bereitzustellen und dabei in aller Ruhe den Gedanken der beiden zu folgen. Und wenn du ganz anderer Ansicht bist oder doch genau so denkst wie sie, dann schreib doch einfach an felixkrafft@googlemail.com! Aber jetzt ersteinmal viel Spaß beim Hören

Rich Kass is one of the most original drummers in the UK Today, Join us both as we chat about his incredible career so far, including gigging for established pop acts such as Sugababes and The Wanted in his early years through to carving out his path to be the phenomenal talent he is today with his regular trio - Trio HLK, Performing regularly with revered percussionist Dame Evelyn Glennie, Drum Lessons with Jojo Mayer and his incredibly popular series of Drum Interpretations. 

In deze twaalfde aflevering komt contrabassist én basgitarist Nicolas Thys op bezoek in mijn studio. Nic kennen we van Tom Barmans TaxiWars én als één van de vooraanstaande jazzbassisten in de Europese scene - niet in het minst omdat hij bijna 8 jaar vanuit New York operereerde. Zijn staat van dienst liegt er niet om: hij begeleidde Toots Thielemans & Kenny Werner in hun quartet, is vast lid van Bill Carrothers Trio én had samenwerkingen met jazzgrootheden als Mal Waldron, Lee Konitz, Bob Brookmeyer en JoJo Mayer. Hij auditioneerde zelfs bij gitaargod John Scofield. Tot slot speelt hij live zijn 'famous last notes' - een ode aan zijn eigen vader én aan het rijke standardrepertoire. Dit alles vergezeld van een bijzonder glas rood uit de Côtes du Rhône, besproken door sommelier Bernard De Vriendt van VITIS.VIN. Met medewerking van Algam Benelux voor de Aguilar bass amplification.

Drummer Gunnar Olsen talks about re-locating to Maine temporarily during the pandemic, mutual stories of living in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, how he got the Puscifer gig and the prep involved in both the gig and live stream playing Money Shot in its entirety April 17th, home studios and his go-too snares/kits & cymbals (and how he likes to alter them), drummers with a great production sense; JoJo Mayer, Chris Dave & Matt Chamberlain, the “less is more” mantra in playing, reverse engineering electronic music and the benefits of analyzing your own playing within that world, the origins of him venturing into drums and his early obsession with Nirvana's Nervermind, the chain of events that all started with his commitment to touring-culminating with the experience of recording with Bruce Springsteen, opening for Muse with his band The Exit, his breakthrough experience in listening to Talking Heads & much more!https://pusciferlive.com/

This week’s interview was an absolute treat for me as I got to sit down and talk bass with one of my heroes, the incredible bass guitar virtuoso Janek Gwizdala. Janek has toured and recorded with modern jazz legends such as Mike Stern, Randy Brecker, Bob Reynolds, JoJo Mayer and released multiple albums as a solo artist. He’s also a high profile educator and author with a huge online presence both through Youtube and his website. As a player, Janek is simply incredible both as a traditional groove player and as an improvising soloist. From a soloing standpoint, Janek has developed a beautifully lyrical style of playing and in this interview I delve into how he was able to nurture such a highly developed vocabulary on the instrument. We also talk in depth about practice in general, the value of transcription and the impact of social media on modern music.

Fluent in funk, rock, fusion, wicked fretless blues slides, Eastern melodicism, Western microtonalism, and everything in-between, his remarkably open-minded and versatile approach to his instrument and music, in general, has made him a “first call” player, and lead to tours and recording projects with a remarkably diverse cast of characters, including Stewart Copeland (The Police), Jack DeJohnette (Miles Davis, John Coltrane), John Zorn, Hiromi, JoJo Mayer, Dennis Chambers, Rudresh Mahanthappa, Marcus Miller, Billy Hart, John Medeski, Ronald Shannon Jackson's Decoding Society, and countless others. He has played on nearly 100 recordings as a session musician, bandleader, or band member, won a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2011, and is a professor at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. Best known as the leader of the Screaming Headless Torsos, KiF, and as a member of Hasidic New Wave, Fuze launched Planet MicroJam, an institute that explores the use of microtones in groove, jazz, ethnic, folk, and other contexts, in 2012. With this impressive resume under his belt, the mad-scientist guitar hero is now seeking to bring his music to new audiences. #Fuze #screamingheadlesstorsos #microtones 0:00 Intro 2:14 Masterclass: Microtones 12:22 Masterclass: Microtonal harmony 14:44 Mystic Microjam 16:34 More microtones 18:40 Indian and Middle Eastern Music 19:32 Jazz approach to microtones 20:10 Dave's approach 21:48 Dave's Funk guitar 24:07 Music inspires 25:15 Funk inspires 27:34 Fuze inspires 29:27 When Fuze goes metal 33:39 The Original Version of Screaming Headless Torsos 34:47 SHT: Putting a song together 39:31 Groove science - feeling 43:54 Album: Planet MicroJam 47:11 Getting into microtones 51:16 Planet Microjam Institute at Berklee College of Music 59:52 Album: Mikrojazz 1:03:42 Georgian Microtonal music 1:04:33 Album: Flam!

Luis Zara, o Kiko, 42 anos, nasceu em Três Lagoas, Mato Grosso do Sul, e veio para Jundiaí em 1979, aos dois anos. Começou a tocar com 5 anos no Conservatório Pio X, "depois de tanto batucar em tudo que via pela frente". "A partir daí nunca mais parei, comprei minhas baquetas e ligava discos de vinil e ficava na frente da vitrola mexendo braços e pernas junto, treinando no ar até comprar a primeira bateria". A primeira experiência em palco veio logo em 1989, ainda adolescente, com a primeira banda, chamada Situação Zero, que montou junto com Sérgio Negri, o Zezé - "grande guitarrista", segundo Kiko. A segunda banda foi a Stupid Vision com o irmão Cesar Zara no vocal, Rafael Morassutti no baixo e duas guitarras, a do próprio Zezé e a de Junir Pauli. Iniciou com cinco anos de idade estudando música (orquestra infantil) em conservatório, adquirindo a primeira bateria aos quatorze anos. Estudou com dois professores particulares de bateria na cidade de Jundiaí; Em 1999,2005 e 2011 estudou com Virgil Donati (Fenômeno da bateria mundial), no Instituto de bateria Vera Figueiredo; Cursou o 1.º ano do 2.º grau em música no instrumento “ piano “; Estudou 3 meses com Lelo Izar (Banda Mantiqueira) Participou de Masterclasses com Virgil Donati,Cuca Teixeira,Aquiles Priester,Daniel Baeder,Alexandre Cunha,Ramon Montagner,Jean Dollabella,etc. Assistiu Workshops de Virgil Donati,Dave weckl,Jojo Mayer,Jonathan Mover,Dennis Chambers,Simon Phillips,Aquiles Priester,Ramón Montagner,Cuca Teixeira,Eloy Casagrande,Alexandre Cunha,Duda Neves,Kiko Freitas,entre outros muitos workshops e shows com grandes bateristas de carreira mundial.

This week’s guest is Teddy Kumpel. Teddy is an amazing guitar player who lives in Brooklyn. He’s worked with people like Joe Jackson (he been in his touring band for the last few years), Rickie Lee Jones, Phil Lesh, Feist, Marshall Crenshaw, and a ton of other folks. He also has played on soundtracks to movies well all love like Anchorman, Talladega Nights, and he’s also a great engineer.Teddy and I became friends sometime back 2013. He had this cool weekly residency at Rockwood Music Hall between 2011 and 2018 where he did this thing called the Loopestra. Basically, it was Teddy, his guitar, his voice and some looping equipment and he’d have a different rhythm section every week. There were no rehearsals. The idea was just to play. It was awesome to hear great bass players like Tim Lefebvre, Andy Hess, James Genus, Jonathan Maron, Fima Ephron, and great drummers like Aaron Comess, Shawn Pelton, Jojo Mayer, Aaron Steel, Josh Dion do their thing in the context of Teddy’s Loopestra.I had the honor of doing 2 of them. Many of those gigs are on YouTube. It’s a goldmine of stuff to check out.Teddy and I spoke a couple of weeks ago and here’s how our conversation went.

We've met Chris Dave.   We've met Jojo Mayer.   Ever heard of Yussef Dayes?   We're talking about virtuoso drummers as bandleaders/composers/producers, and Yussef Dayes is approximately peerless.  The couple I mentioned above exist in his bracket.  Others, too. But for today, let's just vibe, groove, and nerd out on Dayes.  Also, Tom Misch and Rocco Palladino.  (Yep, Pino's kid, and he's every bit as good as his Father.)  Who's Pino?  Well, we get into that, too.  Little D'Angelo for your pleasure.   Hang, won't you?   Love yinz.   -G  

This week I’m talking to the amazing guitarist David Fiuczynski (or as he’s known by many, Fuze).The first time I heard Fuze was on the Meshell N’degeocello song “Soul Record” which is the first song off of her first album “plantation lullabies” where he takes this blazing guitar solo. (Play that solo) As a bass player, that album was already a big deal to me but I was a fan of the Fuze’s guitar playing from then on. I soon heard Lunar Crush which was a record that Fuze made with John Medeski and it would feature Screaming Headless Torsos members Fima Ephron, Jojo Mayer who plays drums on some of it and Gene Lake who also plays drums on some of it. And then, of course Fuze is known as the guitarist and bandleader of Screaming Headless Torsos which is a genre-smashing band that mixes funk/jazz/avant garde/free jazz/gospel/electronic music and everything in between.He’s also worked with people like Ronald Shannon Jackson, Bernie Worrell, Stewart Copeland, Hiromi, Billy Hart, Jack Dejohnette, and many others.

“Technique is just legwork. It’s not a paradigm shift for the most part.” This interview with Jojo was the last interview that I recorded during the Drumeo Festival in 2020. The night prior to this interview was when NERVE closed the festival with a tremendous performance that blew the minds of the audience in attendance. I have been listening to NERVE since early on, in fact, it was the Prohibited Beats album where I discovered them with the incredible tune “Far”.  Prohibited Beats was the first NERVE album release but there were also major parties that Jojo hosted in NYC that he called “Prohibited Beatz”. At the Drumeo VIP dinner he shared that entire story of how he was no longer allowed to host these parties, as people well into the thousands would attend. Look up what the “Cabaret Law” is for some nice casual reading. It was that among other contributing factors that forced Jojo to stop the Prohibited Beatz parties.  Jojo Mayer is a very creative and ingenuitive musician. It has been commented on many times before that Jojo possesses very high technical abilities both in his hands and feet. He broke all of this technique down in his two highly acclaimed instructional Hudson Music DVD’s “Secret Weapons for the Modern Drummer”. The first release was dedicated to hand technique and the second release was for feet. Combined, these DVD’s covered everything you’d ever need to know about technique. There is no question that Jojo Mayer is among the greatest drummers of all time and has been incredibly influential in music and the arts.   You Will Hear About…. The message, “you can’t do that” and how Jojo basically ignored that. How New York isn’t matching the creative output it used to produce. Whether a musician who hasn’t struggled as much is missing something musically? Jojo on “Rock n’ Roll”. Jojo on technique. Jojo is concerned about the safety and prosperity of mankind.   Why Should You Listen? Jojo is obviously an expert musician and I love his music but his interviews are always interesting too. His thoughts about society, art, culture and beyond always have an enlightening edge to them. Speaking for myself, I find the words he speaks to be almost as enjoyable as the music he performs. Much like Frank Zappa in that regard. I am very happy to have had the opportunity to have one on one time with a hero of mine and to have captured something of value for listeners.   Jojo’s Socials Patreon Instagram Facebook Twitter Website   Follow ‘Drumeo Gab’ Instagram Facebook

As a little girl, she took piano lessons, but ultimately, went on to try out for drum corps in her hometown in upper Michigan. She was one of two girls there.How she hears rhythms in everyday activities, even when she is climbing stairs or driving!She tells us how the idea that she "looks like a librarian” and other factors may have kept her from being hired to play in rock bands.She did not let anything hold her back from finding opportunities to showcase her drumming. She played in bands and posted instructional videos on Instagram and YouTube.She was discovered on Instagram by Drumeo and was invited to Vancouver to film a cover of the metal song “Down with the Sickness” by Disturbia. She delivered a powerful message - “Don't judge a drummer or anybody by their looks.” By delivering that message, she has been an inspiration to many aspiring drummers.Dorothea also teaches online and she even taught a nearly 90 year old man.She encourages us not to deter ourselves from pursuing a passion.You can find Dorothea on YouTube and Instagram. Here is the Drumeo video for the cover mentioned in the interview.The Mindful MinuteWhenever you are doing an activity that requires sitting for long periods of time, don't forget to take breaks. Here's an easy one to let go of tension in your neck, shoulders, and wrists. Start by establishing long and even breaths in and out of your nose. Don't hold your breath at any time. Sitting up tall in Mountain Pose, tilt your head side to side. (PAUSE) Next, turn your head side to side like you are saying no. (PAUSE)And now tilt your head up and down as if you're saying yes. (PAUSE) Next, roll your shoulder forward five times. (PAUSE). Roll them backwards five times. (PAUSE) And now, interlace your fingers, roll your hands forward, one at a time, holding on to the interlace. (PAUSE)Release your fingers and  now stack the opposite thumb and fingers on top as you interlace your fingers again. This is going to feel uncomfortable because this is not the way you're used to interlacing your fingers. Roll your hands backward, one at a time. (PAUSE)

Not only is John a long time friend of mine but he's one of my favorite bass players in the world. He's also recorded, mixed and mastered several of my solo albums and is a long time collaborator with Jojo Mayer in the band Nerve. From his days as front of house engineer with John Patitucci to owning the Bunker Studios in Brooklyn, this interview is packed full of great insight and information for musicians of all walks of life. 

I sit down in NYC with my long time friend, bandmate and fellow magic enthusiast (I learned everything I know from him!) Jojo Mayer. He was fresh off the road from a tour of the UK with his band NERVE and had a lot of great insight to give when it came to our discussion about the music business, drums, the internet and host of other things. 

The brilliant Jojo Mayer joins me this week for a chat on his upcoming UK tour, where he sees music in the future, history of drums and so much more! Awesome chat with one talented man! Also, Nora Germain talks about everything music!. Produced by the fantastic Ron North!

Der Schweizer Schlagzeuger Jojo Mayer war noch ein Teenager, als er bereits mit den Grossen im Jazz zu spielen begann, mit Monty Alexander etwa, oder mit Dizzy Gillespie. Dann aber treibt es den Autodidakten dorthin, wo in den 90er Jahren neue Beats entwickelt werden: in den DrumnBass. Und von da weg ist kein Halten mehr. Jojo Mayer ist mehr als einfach ein weiterer grosser Schlagzeuger aus der Schweiz. Zwar beginnt er als Nachfolger der Generation Daniel Humair und Pierre Favre mit traditionellem Jazz und begleitet schon sehr früh Jazz-Grössen wie Monty Alexander, Nina Simone oder Dizzy Gillespie. Dann aber sucht er sich bald einen Weg in eine Richtung, die noch kein Schweizer Schlagzeuger vor ihm in Betracht gezogen hat: DrumnBass. Diese Grooves faszinieren ihn – sie sind hoch komplex, und doch tanzen die Leute dazu und machen Party. Und so vertieft sich Jojo Mayer so lange in die elektronisch programmierten Rhythmen, bis er sie schliesslich akkustisch auf seinem Set spielen und dazu mit ihnen jonglieren kann, wie es keine Maschine hinkriegt. Diese Fähigkeit macht den Autodidakten Mayer nicht nur zu einem gesuchten Session-Drummer, sondern auch zu einem international begehrten Sideman von Leuten wie MeShell Ndegeocello, von Harald Haerter (Intergalactic Maiden Ballett) oder Matthias Rüegg (Vienna Art Orchestra); zu einem Leader in eigener Sache mit der Band Nerve – und zu einem hervorragenden Lehrer. Der Zürcher Schlagzeuger Christian Niederer ist Gast von Jodok Hess. Erstausstrahlung: 05.03.13
