Aw thank you sincerely, Clement, we're so very happy to hear you're finding our teachings helpful. Yay!!! It's lovely to meet you, and welcome to our community, it's a pleasure to have you involved. By the way, what kinda music are you into? Also, we noticed a couple comments from you on our older videos, and we'll get to those asap (we always focus on replying to comments on our new videos first, so thanks for your patience).
Thanks for answering to comments even though we're 80000 ! And I'm into country music (I'm a huuuuuge fan of Taylor Swift, I don't know if you heard her album Speak Now, this is a masterpiece in lyrics and productions !). Thank you again for answering and noticing me on your comments !!!!!!
Hallo to you in the Netherlands! Thanks so much for watching and connecting Ra New! We're pumped to welcome you into our Hack Music Theory revolution! Until next time, take care and happy songwriting, Kate :)
I've been following your tips and hacks carefully and to the letter, and getting so much value from them, but I always need to go to the toilet halfway through each video as i'm drinking too much tea and it means I have to rewind and so forth to get back into the groove. Do you have any hacks that could solve this?
Hahaha!!! You should see how many teas and pees we clock up in the making of each video, it's rather impressive actually! Regarding your question about a tea/pee hack. We suggest watching on your mobile phone/device, so you can just take it with you to the toilet, and keep watching! Hope this hack helps ;) Thanks big time for connecting, John, it's lovely to meet you, and we're so grateful to have you in our community!
Aww thanks so much de7io, and a warm welcome to our Hack Music Theory community! We publish new vids every Thursday, so we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks! Until then, have a wonderful week :)
Lol, that's awesome!! It's great to hear from you Colin :) How's your music making going these days? Still outside the box?! Have a wonderful week, and we'll see you next week for Part 2! Kate :)
Great to hear from you Kate! Music making has been awesome recently, always trying to be outside the box at least haha; feeling very inspired! Hope you and Ray have a great week as well!
awesome thank you :D progressiv metal is wonderful for those kind of tricks :) I did have a band like that before we split and I played the guitar and made the composition work ; now I do acid / hard techno ; sorry I didn't reply, you asked several times how my musical projects were doing, I prefer not to talk about it because the more I talk about it, the less they have a chance to take life ; but you ask twice then...I work on 2 vinyl releases and on a new live project, I changed my setup, so now I don't use computer anymore, and right now I'm step sequencing all my composition into my hardware synth and drum machines :) cheers and love to you two :p have a very good day :) :) :) !! Louis
Bonjour Louis! Thank you for sharing about your music :) I totally understand about not wanting to talk about unfinished music or "song babies," as we call them. It's wonderful to hear that you have a new setup and are staying busy making music. That's the best life ever! Have a wonderful week! Kate :)
Sooooo happy you dig our video, Ell! Thank you kindly for taking the time to watch and connect, we are deeply grateful to you! Take care and until next time, happy songwriting! Kate :)
@@HackMusicTheory Thank you for the welcome, loving your channel! I've also just signed up to your apprenticeship course, can wait to get stuck into it! Most of music I'm writing is the modern metal style, ie Architects, Tesseract etc. Hope you guys are also happy and healthy!
Oh wow that's awesome!!! Welcome to the apprentice family, BigJordy, we're super stoked and grateful to have you on board! And that's great that you're into those bands too. You'll really love Apprenticeship #2, by the way, cos that goes ultra mega deep into progressive and technical theory. Also, the legendary Jens Bogren mixed the App #2 song, so it sounds HUGE!!! Anyhoo, thanks big time once again for joining our apprenticeship, and we'll send you an exclusive invite to our apprentice network later today, so keep an eye out for that :)
Aww, thank you Francis, you're very kind. I think you found us when we were just starting to grow, so thanks again for your support and enthusiasm, it makes all the hard work worthwhile!! I hope you and your music are flourishing! Take care and have a lovely weekend. Kate :)
Lol, so happy you enjoyed this one M B! By the way, how is your music making these days? Have you made more music using MIDI? Hope you had a lovely weekend and we will see you next week for Part 2! Cuidate, Kate :)
Hey hey, thanks so much for watching and connecting, Neerajan! It always makes us happy to know that our hacks are helping musicians! Welcome to the Hack Music Theory revolution and until next time, take care and happy music making! Kate :)
I'm going back looking at some of your earlier stuff and I'm so glad I found this. Sonder is a true masterpiece of an album. But to my point - so is Altered State. The change of singers on that album mixed something up. Not for better, nor for worse, just different, and I can't put my finger on it. So a hack on one of the Altered State songs/suites would be cool! Keep up your awesomeness! 🤘
Aw thanks Mikaela, really appreciate you digging into our back catalogue. And yeah, we've done quite a few other prog/tech bands besides TesseracT and Periphery, like Architects, Arusha Accord, Good Tiger, and probably some others I'm forgetting. By the way, are you into Sikth? I love 'em!!! Ray :)
Also, are you into Port Noir? They're from your country (I think they're based in Södertälje). We're totally in love with their new album, and we did a video on their amazing drummer recently: th-cam.com/video/HLrzUR8kwys/w-d-xo.html
@@HackMusicTheory I haven't heard Sikth, I will check them out, thanks! And regarding Port Noir, yes I've heard them, and I've gotten disappointed by them. They have a few really good songs like Tide and Sun dé man, but the rest that I've heard haven't made an impact on me at all. I will check out that video, though, and maybe give that new album another shot. 😊
Yeah I hadn't heard Port Noir before this new album of theirs, but I'm absolutely loving it!! It's like a hip-hop Leprous album haha, so definitely give it another few listens (it'll grow on you!). And for sure check out Sikth, they're one of the original tech metal bands, and they're amazing!! Their newest album actually has a song featuring the Periphery singer: th-cam.com/video/SXxaWvVFl_8/w-d-xo.html Also check out Exist Immortal, they were my students back in the day when I was lecturing at the college in London, they're awesome too: th-cam.com/video/314D8nYTCpA/w-d-xo.html
this is suprisingly awsome, cool and useful. I wonder do they do it similarly or is it in their blood already (after so many years of nailing it), so they cannot even walk in a 4/4 ;)
Amen to that, Leftham Sam! We're literally blasting their album right now and chatting about how goosebump-inducing that show was. WOW!!! What city did you catch 'em in? Thanks big time for watching our video and connecting, it's lovely to meet you :)
I was in San Francisco! Met a couple of people afterwards who were equally blown away haha. Awesome talking to you too, your videos make me want to pick up an instrument again!
Amazingly amazing!!! Yeah they're completely mindblowing all on their own, and then you add that new light show to their incredibly stage performance, and the whole thing totally feels like an arena show, right? Anyhoo, it's always a pleasure to meet a fellow TesseracT fan, so thanks a bunch for your comment and kind words, we truly appreciate you being a part of our community! And yes, you should pick up your instrument again, definitely!!! And please keep us posted :)
Yes! The light show was such a cool addition, but I may have had my retinas burned out by being in the front lol. These kinds of videos have really brought the fun/interesting/applicable part of music theory back into my life and I'd try my hand at composing if I knew where to start, but I'm already listening to music in a more attentive way! Oh, also, I really hope both of you have checked out Leprous because they are really something special.
Haha it's funny you mention Leprous, as we absolutely love 'em, and they're actually Kate's favourite band! And wow that's awesome you were in the front at the TesseracT show, you're braver than us haha, it was crazy up there! Thanks sooooo much once again for your incredibly kind words about our videos, that means the absolute world to us, and we're over the moon happy that you're finding such value in them. And by the way, if you're wanting to know where to start with composing, you may find our apprenticeship course super helpful, as it literally covers every single step of the process, from blank screen to finished song. If you're interested, you can check it out here: RevolutionHarmony.com/Apprenticeship. Either way, we're ultra pumped to have you in our community, Leftham Sam, and please keep us posted on your musical journey :)

That was the clearest representation of theory I think i've seen yet!
I wish you to reach a gold button ! I've got from you some interesting tips
You guys rule! Such a refeshing easy way to explain how to APPLY theory. I had to learn it from dusty books. Lol
Thank you so much for these videos. They are really clear, fun and simple to understand. Keep up the awesome work !
