How do you approach your chords …broken chords?…a root then whatever sounds good with it..?….root w/a selected interval..?

@benjamin-neal-warner 2 күн бұрын

To be honest I usually find those "half chords" by chance. Often it's when I already have a chord progression that I want to develop or tie it into another one, i.e. transition from verse to bridge. I just kinda find which note in the last chord of the progression stands out to me and fumble about on the fretboard to find where I feel like that voice should move. Once I know the note, I try to build a chord around it with shapes I already know or try to build a new shape. Probably 98% of the time it's root position or 2nd inversion. 1st inversion or higher order extended notes like 6ths, 7ths, 11ths etc. as the bass note tend to just be muddy on the low end so I naturally end up avoiding them. Hope that made sense.

Dude thank you. Been playing guitar for 10 years, writing for 4. I struggle with writers block and brute forcing the voice, or even finding the Melody that isn’t exactly following the voice of the guitar. This had some really good tips. Definitely earned my like.

nice video and info, It is a lot to balance with the chords and vocals and to get through a 5 minute song takes practice and work

wtf i just wrote a song over the two chords you were playing towards the beginning

I love channels that are simple and actually get to the point. Tired of all those fancy channels making things more complicated than necessary

@user-lr2sq5qx2r Ай бұрын

I love your chord arrangements but if I can make a suggestion and that is to really sing much louder because I can't make out anything you're singing about and your voice is barely audible.

Lyrics are in the description. Would anybody be interested in a video series showing how this song was made? It'll cover the bizarre tuning I used and why, as well as the chords, strumming, melody, lyrics/meaning and theory. As a songwriter I always wanted and still do crave a window to "the process" so I though it could be helpful for others if I could be the one to provide that.

Could you make a video focusing on the lyrical aspect of songwriting as well? As a budding songwriter, I often have trouble trying to get through the mental block of getting my even a word down on paper, even when I'm inspired enough to write a song and have my feelings crystal clear. I really enjoy your songs and its lyrics really stand out in a good way, so I was wondering if you could show an in-depth guide on how you go about even starting to write lyrics. Love your videos mate, cheers

Good stuff! The crucial ingredient for melodies that a lot of beginners don't realize though is to include repetition of groups of notes as well, and I did a vid on that I'd love to hear your thoughts on!

@aisforapple2494 2 ай бұрын

Could you please explain to me why regardless of the chord progression I'm using, my melody lines sound identical or very similar? Is it because my songs have the same melodic structure, where the highs and lows of the melody are basically in the same places? Is it just "my style" or is it the fact that I'm mediocre at best and incredibly lazy? I'm getting to the point where I'm considering giving up writing songs altogether because everything sounds identical to me. PLEASE HELP ME!

@dimwitsadvocate6264 2 ай бұрын

So using the notes in the chord to pick out the melody is what you're talking about? I've gotten that to work for a couple of songs lately so that I could make a bridge between verses in a song.

A great idea Neal...its like you have to have an out of body experience as if you were the listener and see if you would remain engaged with the song...what does it need?
