2006 Sonor JoJo Mayer Clinic - Breakbeat lesson

2006 Clinic in Korea
Breakbeat lesson
Sorry for a bad video quality... (audio is fine!)

[@stephenstrussvideo]

Him knowing to put the HH note in at 2:55 is proof of his genius. Its something common in hip hop production that when sampling, to get the sample or break as close to the beat as possible, sometime an extra HH hit would sneak in right before the snare hits. Its a subtle but impressive lick that makes him so incredible.

Stephen Struss Um, it's a basic thing every drummer who plays at least a week does

[@kevindie]

@@wyc7tjmf794*_just wondering after six years, are you still this insufferable as a person?_*

[@nogoogleplus]

His grooves are so bad ass.

[@nameloss]

good stuff but i find it more remarkable to see how much he's developed since 2006. always an inspiration

[@bankal1442]

That guy is an human drums sampler... thats sooo satisfying to watch and hear him play !!!!

[@Chris_Stanley007]

Great video on breaking down backbeats 💯👍🍻🥁

[@chrisgulbranson5867]

This man is a god damn hero!

[@garykcarpenter]

One of the best

[@Chris_Stanley007]

The last words he spoke in this video hold a lot of truth.

[@ChrisSharp_kr1spy]

Just a note about 'When the Levee Breaks', it's not the same sound you hear as what was originally played, but it's a great beat nonetheless.

[@fess04]

.......man....he is right.....take it back

[@xesbc5653]

aaaa this man has so much groove

[@onesyphorus]

the last few lines were 🔥 word

[@fess04]

Clyde Stubbfield, Jabbo Starkes...............can we get these guys paid for chrisakes.............

[@JohnDoe-hq1hk]

i could be wrong....COULD BE........but i think he always plays the last bar of that loop differently than whats heard in the original song

[@mrrandomcuber]

yes he does

[@freddycharles]

Nice job. Awesome stuff.

[@bad_keyzi]

how the hell did he raise the pitch of the kick at 5:05 ??! and the turn it down again?!!

[@bad_keyzi]

so he basically hits it harder avery time, like with a certain amount of extre pressure.

[@rolandvandernat]

and a different cymbal...

[@NikoFrederiko.]

Where's the fro?

[@poserp]

Clyde breaking down "Funky Drummer" (after he does "Cold Sweat"). JoJo's version is fairly close, but in this video the way he plays it is too "flat". I think the main issue is the hi-hat pattern. It's like he's looking for something repetitive to play (granted, the recording is deceptive, I'm fairly certain the 16th's on hat are overdubbed or a different drummer), but Clyde has a pattern that evolves over the course of the beat and is syncopated w.r.t. the main rhythm: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWaYkpKJn8pjors

[@krzyhenk]

F....Great!!!!!

[@papapoodo6685]

How did he age 20 years in only 10 years?!?!

[@emlix1]

It begins with H.

[@spacewhona1121]

The next letter is e.

[@davidcipolla4036]

emlix1 ehhhhh that’s questionable, what evidence do you have that he’s on D? Sure he smokes cigarettes & living NYC certainly is taxing/stressful in its own way. I could testify to that having to spent more time then I can count since I live in Suffolk county about an hour outside NYC on Long Island.

[@Bonzo92a]

00:32 how the hell could the translator say JOE BROWN???? my hearts is crying out loud :'(

[@bad_keyzi]

ok, from 8:14 to 9:26 it was like: -Ok, now translate all that... (thug life joint coming down)

[@rankest2390]

Loool

[@onesyphorus]

a fire sandwich

[@nandinihari8092]

His words starting 9:00 are pearls of experience and wisdom - Samplers have spoilt the culture of drummers - Earlier drummers were 'creating' music - the samplers have pushed them to just 'replicate'.......

[@jahrojasexqsys5238]

For sure the internet and computers have facilitated the exponential growth of imitation in music, however, that's not the whole story. What producers create with a drum machine from samples opened up a new way to look at traditional drum beats, rudiments and the drums themselves. When applied to a kit, this new approach inspired a new wave of drummers whose creative energy has helped continue the evolution of drumming. Sure you can copy Square pushers beats, but you can also make use of his approach to creating beats...namely taking a groove and chopping it up into pieces which are then combined in various ways to create new grooves. This approach is not unlike learning rudiments and then incorporating those techniques into drum patterns and grooves.

[@KangBH90]

통역이 엉망이긴 했죠 ㅋㅋ 좀 드럼을 아는 사람이 해야하는데..

[@neotodd5657]

I'm surprised that he played that Bonham beat totally wrong..

[@CipherSerpico]

Neo Todd No he didn’t. He just plays the second note on the snare a little slower and a little louder.

[@emlix1]

Unless you're recording at Headley Grange with the room mic up a stairwell you're not going to capture the drum sound of 'levee', which was essentially an echo- Bonham didn't play a ghost note. So you have to ghost the second snare note to emulate the reverb. I reckon he did it pretty well.
