Jojo Mayer - Musikmesse 2010 - Part 1

Jojo Mayer returns to Frankfurt as a Sabian artist to deliver another inimitable performance. With hand and feet chops of a magician, and a sense of time, space and rhythm that knows no bounds, Jojo is cited as a player who is redefining the art of drumming.

Obviously, the more talented of the Mayer brothers.

The description of this video says, "redefining the art of drumming". The reality is ~ hes playing drum & bass that was defined by programming musicians ~ non-drummers. It's sick to see this cat actually play it and give it the human feel. I'm an instant fan.

You know i could play better then that. just give me a metronome inserted in my brain, replace my hands with machines, and add engines to my feet.

[slapshotoi]

Some of the best camera work I've seen, the shot of the back of his head is phenomenal.

@ramaflex ah fair do's... i'm a nerd about cymbals, but who uses which ones i'm not so clued up on XD

@metalmanky306

The Omni's came out earlier this year, but he's definately been using one since they were advertised (they are his signature after all so you would have thought!). He now uses an 18" Omni on his left (same place as the El Sabor in this video) and a 22" Omni on the right.

@ramaflex oh, awesome. thanks for the info :) i guess this was before he had his omni then, as far as i know, i thought he'd been using an 18" omni for a while now... or is that still the el sabor?
