Thank you Synthseeker. I'm new to Berlin school music and enjoy all your videos about it. You're a good teacher. From sound design to song structure. Thank you

Your videos dissecting your Berlin School approach have been really helpful to me. I've been moving from creating more abstract, beatless ambient to exploring more rhythmic structures like this. I've been doing okay with sound design--building a palette of sounds and elements--but have been having some struggles with approaching structure. So this is gold to me. Thanks!

haha! Poetic bro! That is whole philosophy of music you just established. This is so captivating and magical to watch. Love your content man!

I always enjoy your lessons. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Very nice resources!!! Sound great with simple changes!

Thank you so much! I'm new to Berlin School style music but I love it! Great to get your analysis. Hopefully, one day, I'll be able to do some of this myself. Thanks again!

Hey Luke. Very instersting video. When I watch it, I was thinking that in fact, your general structuration and approach is mainly prog rock but with incorporation of a lot of Berlin School techniques. Mixing these 2 musical things is always interesting. Berlin School music can be inserted in a lot of things. That's very interesting ^^

This was extremely enjoyable and educational to watch, I really appreciate you sharing all this insight.

Yeah! A new tutorial video! We were desperately waiting. :) Please keep it coming.

This a small and pedantic point, but at the 30:00 minute mark, you said "That's a C7", when it's a C MINOR 7 with no fifth. It could be written as Cm7(no 5), but since the fifth isn't what gives the character to seventh chords (the third and seventh do that), it's perfectly adequate to call it Cm7. Today I learned that due to the lack of polyphony in the soundchips in 8-bit games consoles, jazzy seventh chords played on early Nintendo and Sega consoles were played with just the root, 3rd, and 7th, just like in your piece. In the chiptune community, that Cm7(no 5) that you played would be described as a "Famichord", because it would have been the way the chord was built for Mario games on the Nintendo Famicom.

Love this deconstruction! Did you finish the piece eventually? Could be fun to watch another breakdown of the final track or maybe another one (as long as it is Berlin School; because we have only too little Berlin School tutorial on KZfaq) Thanks a million for making these videos. They are very helpful :)

NICE!!!!!!

I know this is an older video but can you maybe do a talk about the process you follow for selecting your sounds that you use for this genre? Hope my question makes sense.

12:05 - errata - that’s a whole-step not a half-step. Derp!
