“Improvisation is empowering.” – Jojo Mayer

Do you ever wonder how important an artist is to this world? We cannot really define it in words, but Jojo Mayer is here to beautifully illustrate how artists open the door to a new understanding, pushing people towards a new future and facilitating discoveries. He broke out into the professional music space at the age of 18 by joining the Monty Alexander Group. He toured with several other groups that launched him onto the major jazz music scene. Jojo is also known to blend in so many different styles of music, ranging from jazz to drum and bass. His signature style is called "Jungle," which is a culmination of all of these influences. The inspiration and ideas behind Jojo Mayer's Nerve, the electronica trio, are brought to light in this podcast. It is about humans imitating the idiosyncrasies of machines.

Furthermore, he continues to share some insights about his upcoming project, which will be launched in Paris. Jojo discusses the impact of major obstacles such as climate change, global warming, and others, for which society must find solutions and adjust in order to achieve certain goals. These obstacles have a profound effect on the future of the way we live and the way we perceive art, life, and music as well.

Participate in this fascinating conversation in which Jojo Mayer advises musicians on how to bring out their individualities, his creative process, and his fascination with animals, particularly reptiles.
