Jojo Mayer bassdrum technique

[MrTama78]

peccato per l'audio

[draguir]

He comes from another planet in another galaxy,.... wow

[prunerjd]

The sound stops in 1:12, please upload again

[TacoDale23]

He has more groove in his right foot than Travis Barker has in his whole body.

[thezilla31]

this is useful mon!

[Thebeastcalledmydong]

This technique is fantastic. I was struggling with bass drum a lot. Since I use this method my speed and control has greatly increased. It feels less tacky then the ragular heels up. Drummers should try it.

[WhatEver2Be99]

quaaaaaadddddd

[rastadrumma]

that is outrageous 

[gibson00000000000000]

i think it's like a mix of heel toe and the slide technique

[hallunke26]

what happend to the sound?

[GEEKNACH0]

Haha, what a cool and funny dude Jojo is... and, well, what else there's to say about his flawless technique.

[Stratocast83]

that what im saying Cliner97 i always wondering if that was possible and now i got my proof

[ibanezmk1]

its all in the ball of your foot really helpful and smashing

[YoungInfrared]

What dvd is this from??

[littlephoenix1115]

modern drummer like 97 or 98

[Jubustyu]

my right side of my body is as good as him... but my left... oh god... im half god half retard

[ant1ph0n]

that is so sick! imagine if he was a spider!

[Jazzjin]

then he couldn't play drums! nah, just joking. ;)

[BUKAJ138]

its crazy,,, he´s great

[jeenyu5]

this is heel-toe right?

[littlephoenix1115]

no... its a hybrid between heel toe and swinging technique... its his own thing he made and i could never really figure it out

[charlielloydboyd]

its hard to figure out because he custom built his own pedal, this technique might not even work on a name brand pedal :(

[littlephoenix1115]

any technique works on any pedal...

the equipment does not make the man...

i can do push pull on a cymbal with a twig at 120 and mike johnston can do his double stroke on a crap single pedal in sandals,..

his custom pedal, like any high end equipment, communicates your technique the most efficient way possible to the head.

if youve ever played a really light and finesse made pedal without control you can hear it.

[charlielloydboyd]

yeah its deff possible on other pedals. I actually just got the new pearl demon drive yesterday and man i know its expensive but its the most amazing piece of equipment ive ever used

[littlephoenix1115]

yea i got mine last week, its definitely up there as one of the best pedals ever with the ludwig speedking and trick pro v1... but i didnt like the beater and switched it for my slug drums one...

[charlielloydboyd]

aww, the i LOVE the beater haha. There just happened to be a pearl representative at samash when i bought it, she was sayn theres some type of "polypropoline" vibration absorber in the center. maybe its just a placebo but i can FEEL them polypropolines when i play!

[Bosphorus92]

well are'nt tou special littlephoenix1115

[Apoktite]

LMAO

" i use this alot when i go into a music store and i want to get attention."

priceless.

[Cliner97]

Everyone goes on about the fast double kick players like Jordison, but Jo Jo is proof in motion that guys like him can play as fast while using only 1 kick. But stop and start control is the key and Jo Jo's got that in spades. He's not my favorite drummer sound-wise, but he's a damn good drummer nonetheless.

[Cliner97]

The foot board does matter when using this technique. People say foot/shoe length doesn't matter but in truth it does relative to the length of the footboard. I wear a size 12 shoe and with my pedal this technique doesn't work well or consistently. After much practice, I get the same results with control of the bounce with my toe. Everybody's different or has a different method, but that's how I do it. Jo Jo's heel is still contained within the scope of the board, mine lays well over the end.

[canofanta]

holy crap

[blkdrkkngt]

what is this? NO SOUNDS MATCHING HORRIBLE!

[Drummerboy999]

its called lag dumbshit

[blkdrkkngt]

Its called a whole new section. He wasnt even hitting the ride. Lag Shmag. He was on the ride in sounds, but in the video he was on the tom and bass. Yeah, get the information straight first.

[mrjarvie1985]

I second that, it's not lag you moose. It's shit audio video syncing.

[CMSdline]

Yeah It just stops..all of um do that..

[Borbatr]

good bye sound o/

[stephenosullivan]

I know technique isnt everything but this guy has the best, and he sounds great, and grooves and is tasteful end of story.

[jusnabi]

where did the sound go?
