What's up Drumtrepreneurs! This week we are chatting with Juan Carlito Mendoza. This is my absolute dream interview and one I have waited a very long time to do. Juan is an educator and Adjunct professor at the New Jersey City University and the band director at William C. McGinnis Middle school with a list of sponsors including Pearl Drums, Remo, Vic Firth, Meinl, Drumdots, drumdial, sweet spot clutches. Juan is also the winner of the 2012 guitar center drum off and in my opinion the best entry of all time. This interview shows the humbled approach Juan brings to any conversation showing his true obsession with music, drums, and educate others in the most reliable way possible.

Key Points from today's episode

* Juan gives us the full spread on his life breaking down the fundamentals of what led to his obsession with playing drums. Juan talks about the mentors that were standing over his shoulder giving him the advice he needed to stay on track at an early age.

* Juan talks deeply about habit building and paying attention to the details in his playing but more specifically in his playing. This leads us to the story of how we won the guitar center drum off as we detail the purpose behind his insane training that led to winning.

* As we detail out the success of Juan's career we transition into the importance of goal setting and more importantly holding yourself accountable to achieve the goals you set out for yourself. We shed light once again on the 7 attempts Juan took to win the Guitar Center Drum off and using the power of goal setting to win.

Juan was by far one of the most successful guests we have ever had firmly detailing his understanding of what it takes to be successful in the music industry. It's important to point out a few bullet points from this chat that really play a role in Juan's success.

* Obsessive habits: Juan obsessed over the drums his entire life to the point of no return and because of that his ability to find joy in a practice pad allows him to feel good about spending 7-8 hours focusing on his hands

* Diligent with the details: Juans ability to stare at his hands for hours, listen to recordings of himself for weeks, and obsesses over breaking down 1 single pattern into 20+ different variations is a clear indicator of his fluid understanding of rudiments and timing.

Juan is a pillar of success speaking a level of drumming language that only a few unique people have had the luxury of speaking and a drummer I feel everyone can take a page from. Learning what I have learned today has given me some serious inspiration of my own. Remember, its the small steps that over time result in GIANT results..

What's up Drumtrepreneurs! This week we are chatting with Giovanni Cilio all the way from Florence, Italy. Gio is an amazing drummer that I wanted to bring on to the show after spending a few days at NAMM hanging with this up and comer. Get this... He is only 24 and already making waves on Instagram, obtaining sponsorship deals from big brands like Zildjian, and spending massive amounts of time networking and connecting with his community. On today's show, I get the scoop on this up and comer as we talk the fine details of diversifying your drumming.

Key Points from today's episode

* We get the full scoop on Giovanni's life starting at 8 when he convinced his parents to get him a drum set after diligently building a makeshift kit out of tin boxes and pots

* Gio details his high school and university years taking down the path of his in-depth learning experience graduating from Florence's top Music Academy

* Gio talks about his trip to NAMM, experience in Los Angeles, and his plans to make it out to Southern California. This is a great part of the show as we talk about big things to think about before making a change like this.

Gio was a great guest with great conversation points and one hell of an inspirational mindset. A lot of us drummers complain about our situation, where we are, who's around us, and what reasons that it holds us back. That is what I like about Gio... He pay's no attention to the negatives only pushing forward and dominating his path... That's a true drumtrepreneur...

What's up Drumtrepreneurs! This week we are chatting with Steve Pruitt! Steve Pruitt is a multi-faceted drummer with experience, efficacy, and industry credit that goes beyond the levels that many drummers will ever be able to fathom... Hailing from Oklahoma City, Steve is a graduate of North Texas University, a student of Ed Soph, former drummer of Snarky Puppy, and a well sought out clinician and studio musician that resides in Seoul, South Korea. Steve has one heck of a mind and his complete obsession with drums and everything about the drums leaks through heavily during this chat as we plunge into the life story of the amazing Steve Pruitt.

Steve's Sponsors are: Canopus Drums, Sabian Cymbals, Promark Sticks, Evans Heads, Pure sound snare wires, Tru Tuner, Booty Shakers

Key Points from today's episode:

* We start the show strong with a detailed look at the life of Steve Pruitt starting at age 8 when his parents purchased drum sets for both his sisters along with a boring guitar for him. After only a few short days Steve figured out a way to bargain a trade with his sisters for one of the drumsets. This is where it all began.

* Steve give us the details of his first teacher who was exceptionally loving and caring but equally as strict. He explains how she was sensible enough to keep him on a pad for the first 6-12 months of his lessons before pushing the parents to invest more into the instrument.

* Steve breaks down his experience with Snarky Puppy and what led him to moving all the way to North Korea, getting married, changing his entire way of life and still managing to crush it as a drummer on all levels. He even tells us about his recent performances at the 2018 Olympics in Pyong Chang.

When Scott set this show up I was not in the know regarding today's guest which made today's one in which we truly let it flow. Steve is a stand-up human being that really begs us to ask ourselves the question "Am I working to my true potential?"  His ability to navigate such a strong and prosperous should serve as a blueprint for many of us and will add to the bank of inspiration I get from the drummers Kevin and I are so honored to interview.

That's it for today's show! We will catch you next week!
