I would love to see Mono jam with Jojo Mayer. MonoNeon actually covers the synth and the bass components of the jam, because he's usually appearing with Nerve which is bass/synth added to Jojo.

I got nothing but love, admiration and total respect for Dwayne aka MonoNeon. I'm grateful for his willingness to partake in the conversation knowing it wasn't the most comfortable thing, but I think his warm, glowing character shines through.

I’m so happy you got Mononeon to come on. Prince saw his talent. You can hear it in his music. He’s got some serious talent that hasn’t even bloomed yet.

I remember seeing his signature bass in my local guitar store a few years ago and it definitely shocked me (mainly because I had never seen a bass with that bright a finish before and also I had no idea who MonoNeon was at the time), but after hearing him play in this I'm definitely impressed with what he can do. Definitely funky as hell and it's awesome
@compucorder645 ай бұрын
MonoNeon, Dwayne is very inspiring. Seems he just taps into creative intuition, and that's working for him. Good interview, I seem to remember you did a good interview with J Mascis a couple of years ago too. So you seem to be good at drawing out shy artists to talk about what they do. Keep up the good work.
@chris_kies5 ай бұрын
Thanks for the kind words. I try to do my best of walking a line of being inviting and pulling information out of the guests but not get in the way or overtake them. Appreciate the kudos and support to PG's channel!
@compucorder645 ай бұрын
@@chris_kies Yes, that's how it comes across. Like your keeping yourself out of it. Except asking brief well targeted questions only when you want to stimulate a potentially interesting topic. It's a rarer skill than you'd think. And important, with shyer interview subjects. And plenty of stage-hardened instrumentalists pr soloists are surprisingly shy when it comes to speaking about their craft. I like Matt Sweeney's interviews on his Guitar Moves channels too.
