Yeah, Jojo is a fairly recent discovery of mine. I know he's been around for a while but he's new to me.
I really, really like what he's doing. He's found a way to reverse engineer (his term) the sound of electronic music into the acoustic drum set. He has ridiculous chops and has taken some hand techniques to places I'm not sure anyone has taken them before. But he uses those chops for the music. He's one of the few cats who has that much technique but still finds what I consider to be musically interesting things to say with it. I can't say I own a lot of his music but he's on my short list of current favorites.
