really helpful

You put links in the comments below huh?

Thank you for opening my eyes. I just purchased your book.

Great video! Though you forgot the important melodic sequence in Eleanor Rigby: "...picks up the rice in the church where a wedding has been"

The Beatles use tons of these patterns and "sequences" in many of their songs like Eleanor Rigby, Nowhere Man, Penny Lane, etc

Thank you David. Rev Lolii from Kenya

These ideas are helping me to connect with music in a way I had almost given up on. Analysing music and hearing it in terms of the figures David defines is transformational. Thank you for these films (and the books).

Slowly but surely, I'm figuring out how to make a melody.... Danke for this goldmine 👍

We want more, please. You are doing it the best way! 👍

What??! Only 408 views in 1 year? Is KZfaq algorithm still working? I am sure, millions of viewers are dying for such kind of a video!

Thanks for the updates, your books are pure gold.

Fuentes’ emphasis on (a) musical ‘words’ (figures) rather than musical ‘letters’ (notes) (b) and that contrast is an important as repetition is nearly unique (Phil Rees says much the same) but only Fuentes puts accented beats as the progressive goalposts of any & every melody....bravo !

when hundreds of youtubers re-hash conventional theory, you really reach for something more - something our gut feels is right

From zero to catchy in less than two minutes! Lovely!

This simple 1 minute and 29 second video just helped this concept click in my brain. Why this video doesn't have more views, I'll never understand, but good stuff!

What about accompaniment/harmony, then? Time for "Figuring out accompaniment"?

Great content keep it up !

The flowers example was awsome. Made me rethinkg the way i write melodies.

Your book has helped me profoundly. Thank you!

Except in EDM. Haha!

I have had the original ebook for years. Always next to my bed to read over an over. It is great seeing topics from the book brought to life with these KZfaq videos. Great job David!

Best book ever... 10 reads later....
