Jojo Mayer - The Distance Between 0 and 1 - TEDxZurich Encore

Jojo Mayer's Encore from TEDxZurich 2011
Great close-up of Jojo's brush technique

[@lilystrong9870]

I seriously need to know how he plays those accents while keeping those brushes swirling. The sound makes me feel like sitting on a beach at night lit by a small camp fire, with no one around, and calmly listening to the waves.

[@sangwooshin9007]

good description!

[@tristantheuerkorn777]

Yes, that's masterful!

[@Mirozenx]

@hinderblinder look up 'max roach at his best' that's another excellent brush video!

[@motazal-masri6843]

I hope these people realize what it means to be honored by the presence of the great Jojo Mayer.

[@chrisgr00ver]

Every video I see of JOJO makes me think it was filmed in the 70's

[@veni]

So this is where ASMR started

[@chooristina]

JO JO MAYER

[@BreKrach1]

god can not respond to prayers, he ist busy listening to jojo mayer

[@unable]

a demonstration of creative snare cleaning :)

[@metallicguns95]

Wait. WAIT. JoJo was doing a clinic in Michigan? And I didn't know about it? What the actual fuck?

[@Kurdtttt]

the most romantic thing on drums I've ever heard

[@Drum4Dream]

Just a snare and a master

[@DanLetts97]

That was actually more brilliant than you will ever know. I challenge you to replicate that. Could you not hear the ocean? The wind in the trees? Oh nevermind.

[@AlanColeslaw]

JOJO AT TED OH MY GOD WHAT IM SO HAPPY

[@ScottyMcJesus]

That... is now one cleeann drum! :P

[@Imotayam]

my minds has just been torn open to all new levels O_O

[@endyta7]

he has skill in making pizza, nice....

[@SimonHintonNZ]

he actually just made love to a snare

[@Joeskateapool]

because he's Jojo Mayer and he has a snare drum and a pair of brushes. He's fucking great...........

[@Btolbertjr]

@NumerusAnimus he's entitled to his own opinion

[@РинкаМегане]

Расслабляющий :З

[@funkymoe1]

well i can see the snare patch is really clean...

[@fernandoramalho4448]

Genius!!!

[@Bryantm101]

Bet he makes some mean scrambled eggs..

[@cocosystema8763]

cool!

[@jabjam07]

Jojo is sick...proves what can be done when you dedicate your life to something.

[@umdiscodevinil]

Every time I see Jojo performing, one question always comes to my mind: "Do I quit or keep practicing?" At the same time I get motivated, I also get frustrated HAHA

[@TempoDrift1480]

That's no attitude to have toward music.

[@Six3rdy]

Well, in your defense, I understand this. Lol.

[@jodassin9709]

Asmr

[@iau]

That's right folks, cleaning your drums can take a while

[@ZnesJuampii]

I'm the only one who remembered the sea and the waves at the begining?

[@paolotini]

puoi fare spettacolo suonando anche un tappo di bottiglia. Unico

[@upbeatmantis86]

That sound i tell ya', can cure Alzheimer

[@TheNeogeo68]

Ditto on the wizardry!!!!!!

[@catfishmudflap]

Wonderful performance. Especially since the audience remained quiet until the end.

[@records789]

@08Pearldrummer its just you

[@DreamyBongos]

HE PLAYS THE BRUSHES!?

[@GUITARISTED]

Went to JoJo clinic a week ago in Michigan, was fantastic. He truly loves his craft but not happy with current state of music (i.e. Justine Bieber, Lady Ga Ga). Music today is preformed like GMO in foods. The organic stuff is this writer's choice. May all real musicians take craft to ends of universe despite main stream garbage.

[@hessley]

19 people should to sweep the house after seeing this video

[@NumerusAnimus]

@Btolbertjr Well of course he is, but saying that doesn't just automatically validate an ignorant statement.

[@TheRadrussian1]

@DuhEnlightenedOne nothing needs any cowbell.

[@gotmilk2345]

How his necklace didn't get caught in his hands... I do not know.

[@VaiRoth]

@DuhEnlightenedOne Needs more Christopher Walken

[@ELVINGIO]

ne' piu' ne'meno quello che fa un qualunque batterista di jazz navigato, magari senza prendere tutti i soldi di costui...like evry drummer in the world can play professionally , without be rich like this man....!!!

[@skatearlyesterday]

WHAT WIZARDRY IS THIS

[@DeBretancourt]

I don't understand •_• ... Where's the bassguitar?

[@PaddieFunk]

where is the romance?

[@dreamopeth]

How can you say you don't like brushes if your looking up JoJo Mayer?

[@Rantandreason]

@Thomlistentoslayer crap! my ego! you've damaged it

[@NewGamer101]

So, what are we listening to here?

[@diegocalderon1073]

Looks like he was making a ultamite jelly sandwich

[@36tenaz]

[@ZnesJuampii]

[@Zerdevils]

อยากตีไม้นี้

[@timmylee1974]
