@ZenMasterChip Жыл бұрын
I couldn't agree more whole heartedly! Once you have the numbers of the patterns... and learn them in C major; the rest makes sense.. but the Letter name of the chord changes with each key (I prefer to trust my ear, and don't bother with the names...) :-) What I mean is... starting with each mode in C (which only uses white keys) first learn the pattern 1st, 3rd, 5th... you're on your way. Then learn which of the 7th, 9th, 11th and 13th go a little sour and learn them as avoids. Of course, there are no wrong notes or chords if they're framed by chords that transition to them or complement them... so. nothing is really off limits; it all depends on the sounds you want to make... In the modes, and C major modes are perfect for this... it automatically creates major minor minor major major diminished. (All on white keys). Each mode... first 1,3,5 patterns starting on C, is C maj, then starting in 2nd mode (dorian) D, Dmin, then etc... E min, Fmaj, Gmaj, A dim (A°). aka Phrygian. (I think I got that right) ;-) Hey, I'm still learning too... :-) And I think simple little patterns also get along... so, using this... CGE, makes c maj, and also CGE as chords get along well (Cmaj, E min, G maj), ad nasueum. Then for fun, check out the same with C7, C9, C11, C13... and their chords as a pattern for a base... in c maj, since these are all white keys... it's not hard to figure... pretty much, every other note (in white keys only) makes all these chords. :-) Of course, alone, or only hearing the chord that comes before; in order, some chords will sound a bit off.. of course; but, that just means they need a different chord to sound right... or a note left out, or, or... and I don't know the rules and why... but, he touched on this briefly in this video... for example, substituting a different white key note; or a black key not can make it sound good. :-) Of course, then the Name of the chord changes (and we don't care; we use our ears, and learn the names later) and the key might change (but again... ears, not names). I think when writing music; if you're into it that much; trusting your ears before your theory will work out in the long run; but theory will help you know why. But, that can come later... FUN FIRST! 🙂

I like these videos. Quite often, it does seem like I'm listening to someone discussing something in a foreign language I might be somewhat tenuously acquainted with, but the demonstrations do help to solidify that disorientation into something tangible. I kinda get what you're saying, more through the visual (and aural) demonstration than by the use of technical terms. Still, I think you do a great job in helping to reveal the secrets of the keyboard (I do find it all quite fascinating - I find I stumble across much of this stuff myself without any technical knowledge of what it is I'm doing, so hearing you explain it all is useful, if sometimes still a little opaque) - and you are a great communicator.

Hey recently found your channel and for a budding ambient composer this is really a treasure trove of practical tips and ideas. I recently started to move away from a PC and trying composing/jamming only on an iPad and piano. It'd be amazing to see you dealing with this in of your future videos (aka making one of your song from scratch with AUM, Cubasis, Korg Gadget, etc or whatever iPad platform) and maybe explore them further in a series. For example I sometimes just create a soundscape in AUM and will jam with that as a sort of ambient meditation. I hope you'll explore something similar and consider these ideas!

Frankly, this is one of your best vids (don't worry, all the vids I've seen of yours have been excellent, but this raised the bar). Well-explained, intuitive, and with good context and examples. It's given me inspiration and ideas, which I will use in some new pieces. Also, I plan to show this to my 13-year-old daughter, because I think it will introduce new concepts, and open up more possibilities for her. Good work, sir.

"I do pot, leave me alone, locrian". This is the most beautiful piece of poetry I have ever heard in my life. Subbed.

Oh man, instant subscriber here. Your mnemonic for remembering the modes had me cracking up. I love the dead pan humor. I laughed, I learned, I'll be back!
