[@LionAndALamb]

As a bassist, Jojo Mayer inspires me more than any other musician.

[@ethanlocke3604]

Not to mention all three of the bass players he played with in nerve, John Davis, Tim lefebvre, and Janek Gwizdala are all great, and all credit him as being a big influence

[@LionAndALamb]

@@ethanlocke3604 Absolutely. He is a bright bright star of musical genius.

[@dankauffmanmusic]

The engineer is the secret 4th musician in this band.

[@WindsongSoundBath]

It’s not a small secret either! :)

[@tplank216]

1 million percent

[@carlosj.orttega4275]

He's openly a performer in the band, not a secret at all.

[@dankauffmanmusic]

@@carlosj.orttega4275 you know that and I know that but not everyone pays attention to the guy not on stage.

[@carlosj.orttega4275]

@@dankauffmanmusic yei.. It's also to notice, "the audience on stage with the band" thing, one Jojo things for most performances with Nerve.

[@jeansandjumper]

Came to this vid never having heard of nerve or JoJo Mayer, leaving as a massive fan...it's like I've found who plays my head music

[@MasloDziedzic]

Yep, got the same in 2010 when KZbin showed me Nerve - Jabon.

[@dauntevivone3578]

I found JOJO MAYER w/NERVE a week ago !!!! I'm totally appreciating this group of authentic originals. The musicianship is outstanding. It's now become a bonafide obsession !!!

[@vergedrums]

Welcome to the club!!

[@marcinszymanek3894]

One of the only drummers who can tell a story by playing. Also, never heard a drummer so tight. Terryfingly beautiful.

Jojo, the very best of allerbest! Mehr braucht es nicht zu beschreiben

[@brentscheidt]

i actually have always wanted to be jojo meyer when i grew up

[@drumminemt]

I've come back to this video about 6 times a week and just let it play in the background as I work at the computer.. GREAT stuff!!

[@Fleshcut]

What an interesting band concept. Keyboard, bass and drums seems so incomplete without at least a guitar added to the mix, but it totally works out here. Very interesting songs that never seem to get boring. It reminds me of some pieces from Nine Inch Nails or Aphex Twin. I also like to see younger artists play together with older artists. I think so many bands could use some experience or modern influences. Something that only comes with an old or a young band member.

[@juanancamo]

Flipante! De lo más estimulante! 👏👏👏

[@vinceventura2393]

Nerve and Dub Trio.. I am thankful for their creativity, skills and inspiration!

[@lukamoretti]

Thanks for all! Amazing 👏🏻🥁💃🏼🕺🏻♥️

[@WektorGH]

I came here after a while and I appreciate jojo & nerve more than ever

[@simoncarlsson598]

Guys, gals, if you're a drummer and you smoke pot. Watch this really high. Holy shit!

[@jonasduus3022]

+Simon Carlsson Just did that. Jojo is out of this world!

[@tadizzleh2109]

+Simon Carlsson im so gonna do this

[@AquaAnim]

If you need to smoke pot to appreciate this. Should probably choose to do something else.

[@simoncarlsson598]

Why the hate? @AquaAnim

[@AquaAnim]

+Simon Carlsson Just because i say something you dont like, doesn't mean there is any hate involved what so ever.

[@mrmonkeygrinder]

Holy moly omg best band ever. Jojo's tempo changes during improv is god like. I am not worthy.

Incredible, what Jojo does during the improvisation part...wow!

[@fabiopadaratz2515]

And ALL the band as Well.... Killer !!!!!

[@AndyClux10]

Absolute mastery all around. Brilliant players.

[@JUTESDARKMATTER]

the amen break starting around 20:55 is INSANE!!!!! Love it!!!!

[@풍뎅이-h5b]

Props to jacob. every sound he plays and how he uses is so relavant to the song.

[@miserableoutcast]

Nothing short of spectacular. Mind blowing stuff.

[@traillezat]

bon sang de bois! ça fait du bien!

[@yrussq]

Actually if anyone noticed - one of the rarest moments when the replaced musician fits extremely well without ruining known sound of the band. Jacob brought some really nice harmonies and sounds. OMFG! 10:11-10:17 so cool fill!

[@CoryPelizzari]

One of the best live recordings I've ever watched. Pure energy.

[@martinreilly2752]

Gives me chills listening to these guys.

[@mineheadX1]

I love this band, one of the most creative since the original Weather Report & Mah Orch...

[@catkeys6911]

You can learn a little morse code with this one, I think. Dot dot dot...dash...dash......dash. Jojo is just pure precision. Precision clockwork -*surgical* precision.

[@devolta]

My favorite part is 0:00 through 36:45

[@lawrencemartinez3628]

why didn't you like the last 2 seconds?

+Lawrence Martinez Never said that.

They were phenomenal in Boston recently. Can You Hear They're Dreaming? Can't believe they played that tune! My fave

[@huascarrodriguez406]

Maestros de la vanguardia.

[@slayer8273]

Damn I totally fell in love with this band. I knew about them for years but today was the first time I gave them a listen - should have done it earlier.

[@drumdalf]

mindwash is washing my mind, amazing atmosphere and feel!!!

[@Buttepossu]

Great concept, that just get greater more it matures.. Just top notch production quality here, starting from each individual performance to mixing, which seem kinda blend into seamlessly. Also really nice cam work and lightning. Best of all, combine all of above and you've created such a jamfest of the 21st century! Thanks for sharing the talent!

[@philip2404]

I would love to see Jojo and Nerve evolving again

[@briancha7741]

fuck. i really really wish they released that improve section on an album. amazing.

[@marciozarzir25]

Incrível como a fusão entre o acústico e o eletrônico acontece. Realmente um grande músico com uma entrega fantástica. Manipulações rítmicas perfeitas. Sentimento. .. Enfim. .. sem mais!

[@incubotic421]

I've watched this so many times. Amazing performance and production!

[@HouseJawn]

WOW! best jojo ive ever seen recorded!!

[@Laurentsstuff]

I saw Nerve this summer at the "Baby 's All Right " in Brooklyn : I love the effective, metronomic and groovy play of John and his fucking good sophisticated bass sounds. Same for the playing of Jacob, various sounds, various energies, hypnotic melodies. Aaron creates the great spatial musical mood of it. And Jojo, well... the Alien. Kind of robotic groovy human-machine, between Kendrick Scott and Terry Bozzio. "Organic" electro, jazz approach, both complex & minimal. Stunning. Huge slap. Il faut absolument que vous veniez jouer à Paris ! On a besoin de vous :-)

[@charliequinn160]

WOW, First listen for me...totally friggin amazed at the tightness of this...the sounds are amazing and ...I'm really lost for words !!!

[@nsj3000]

Saw these guys in S.F last night, excellent performance!

[@executeorders]

Absolutely amazing ! Jojo your TedTalks video's completely changed my outlook on drumming and life as a whole. You're phenomenal to watch perform. Also the rest of the group is spot on, amazing performance by all involved here.

[@neithere]

Yeah, I found courage to buy drums and start practicing after one of his lectures in KZbin (not even a TedTalk). Feeling so happy now, turns out it's something I've always not only wanted to do but actually can. So grateful to Jojo!

Awesome! Also good to know that even a drum god can have his sticks slipping when fired up for real :D

[@HenryPerez_royal_hp]

Even dropping a stick in and off time, Jojo blows my mind xD

[@AlexandrosMav]

Lovely Vibe! Great tunes!

[@burnthedead13]

he had to drop a stick @ 4:48 just to appear human lol

[@justkillingtime8067]

burnthedead13 I bet He did it on purpose to convince us he is not a groove robot

burnthedead13 HERESY !

[@Han-Solo459]

+Just Killing Time Robots can not groove.

[@Bemenhorst]

+burnthedead13 still didn't drag or speed up. the groove is in his bones

[@GorcStew]

actually he drops his stick on pretty much every video on youtube lol...the Buddy Rich tribute when he is doing solo finale, the Led Zeppelin Good Times Bad Times cover, the drum off with Dave Weckl. Buddy Rich dropped his stick twice during concert once...you just don't notice it because he recovers so well...something I am unable to do myself :( lol

[@m4xyer]

Thank you, it's very cool

[@Vanguarda07]

Jojo Mayer é mestre... O melhor sempre...

[@Prof3ssrBrando]

Wait... that is totally insane that the improvisation at 18:00 was cued up by Jojo throwing up a "5" on hand. I guess that's like cuing up key signatures with your hands, haha. Such a tight quartet.

[@chun-weikang471]

1) its trio 2)the "5" was a signal for the 5/4 groove but its still insane anyway :)

[@_rlb]

@@chun-weikang471 it's a quartet, because Aaron (sound and real time audio deconstruction) is part of the band. Also, there is no 5/4 groove. Although it sounds really cool and non-standard, the improv is just in 4/4.

[@infundere]

EXCELLENT WORK

[@markomarkovic5729]
