FanaticalDrummer : You do know that Jojo has added and is using an electronic clap device now and not an acoustic efx cymbal or product he designed, right. . .? He's still a great drummer but that fake clap sound is cringe-worthy ~
This is like having 4 musical geniuses in one room, all focusing on their job and know exactly what to expect from one another. Amazing "chemistry" going on here.
I have been sharing you guys around to my friends. They always think that it is a bunch of loops. I set them straight! You guys are doing some amazing work!
This made me and my friends stay for hours seated discussing art. How I see this is a beautiful expression of art, and also how one can express himself through various ways. Thank you for great art, and conversation starters
Wow i didnt see this coming... as far as i noticed u were using tm-2 for 1 for kick and stereo line on bt-1 right? Is there any other drum that you triggered? But thank god not on your snare because i really admire how you electronized your acoustic snare by your technique and how you treat the snare sound
When people tell me that they like electronic music I always ask them "Do you Nerve?" and if not I slap them with the Ep.... This is Electronic music... Real DJs are a few... Nows it's USB Jockeys
JojoMayerNerve - What is the instrument that sounds like an 808 snare/clap? I see no cables coming out of it to indicate it's a pad of sorts; is it an acoustic percussion instrument?
See THIS is actually music. Musicians actually playing! Not some idiot in a helmet turning phase knobs. Organic percussion, live bass, and the sampled sounds are being orchestrated by someone who can actually play keys!
JojoMayerNerve Lol well you guys would be the only ones to pull it off. You could do a parody edm show :p You guys should be paid $80k a night, not some "Dj".
+What the hell is Jojo Mayer doing using that pre-programmed "clap" sound which is mounted ON TOP of the Sabian efx cymbal he created !? Digital fake "clap" sounds like shite-- Did I misunderstand something somewhere ...isn't Jojo all about 'CREATING' an electronic sound out of raw materials, i.e., all of his innovative ideas with Sabian and their Special Efx Cymbals and Hoop Crashers, etc.??? What is happening here --- He's completely contradicting his own ideology which he's been expounding upon ad infinitum ever since he decided to learn how to play his acoustic drumset as though it was a drum machine the D.J.'s used for Hip-Hop, Electronica, Jungle, Drum & Bass, Samplers, Reverse -Engineering, Dub Music , etc. Everything that made him such an important innovator and unique drummer was just flushed down the toilet with that one sound . All of his self--bravado comes up to the surface as he makes a mockery of himself as well as his words. He's become an adult contemporary smoothe jazz drummer. . . This is such a loss for the drum community. WAKE UP JOJO MAYER!
You might really mislistening to the video at all ... It's not Jojo clap, it's the keyboard! watch the previous Ep and you'll see that the clap sound did not even reach the mic.
+DNA Hyzhma : YOU are not listening and watching. I have already spoken to a band member in a different post where you can see I am correct concerning the electronic clap sound Jojo is now using. He said that, yes, Jojo IS using it. Personally, I think it sounds cheap. He is such an amazing drummer without the use of electronic effects don't you agree? Watch a few other current videos of him and his band Nerve playing and you can see him hitting a horizontal cylinder attached to the efx cymbal he designed with Sabian. Please do not take my comments in a negative way towards you, I am just clarifying the facts and answering your comments. Do you also play drums?
Don't worry! i don't get angry because of oppinions and preferences. I was lucky i've seen Nerve on England live. and yeah his ideal about reproducing sounds with accoustics too i've seen it on TEDx. But what i think that maybe and i personally take Jojo Mayer as my ideal drummer for that! I'm even trying to reach his level but with my own style and i can say it's hard and difficult as steel! Maybe he's using that clap for secondary purpose, I don't think he would really get into premade sounds tis easy after 40 years of playing on his own way.
