Just as I have been singing the desire for this knowledge you have been crafting this video for us all. Blessed you heard my wishes all this time. Thank you 💙💙😇😇
This is really a phenomenal video. Coming from guitar there are so many piano “cheats” to adding flavour to chords and some of these progressions are so interesting and educational. Loved it
Good video I didnt know about the Berklee map! the piano sound for the chords is way too brutal tho, kind of gets in the way for feeling the chords by being unuanced, should probably focus more on diving right in the chords and have them played with the right amount of velocity (and probably a better piano vst)
Glad you liked it! Indeed that study was really damn cool. Noted your feedback - I’ll keep that in mind for future videos. Good call on a visual of the whole progression too
I think you mind linked with me while you were making this video. 🧘♂️🧠🧘♂️ A few days ago, I thought of that emotion wheel after seeing it in someone's house a few years ago and thought *"oh man it would be convenient if we had a layout like that for cadences and professions"* I've never seen you channel before and the algo read tf outta me
This is very good video especially if you take in account how big this topic is. Would be cool if you make series of videos where you take each "emotion/ sub emotion" and make more examples I think all those people who write that its too complicated or they can't imagine would help them to see it better
Great content bro, love your vids...Daniel Levitan mentions that emotional response to music, tones, and intervals are very culturally relevant...as opposed to the pentatonic scale, which is found in every culture and every era
His book is incredible. It’s unreal how deeply rooted music goes in our brains pattern recognition, emotional / motivation centres and all human culture. Truly beautiful
Could you let me know what app you use to display the note and chord info at the top of the screen please? I'd really like to explore the chords with that tool and experiment with voicings.
Such an interesting theme. Unfortunately I don't master the chord language well enough so it all became double greek to me. Probably need to study more music theory to have any value from it.
Thank you for this video, the voicing are beutiful. 🥰 I have a question, In progression 1 you are using slash chords with D in the bass, but in your example G is in the bass for all your voicing (/G) and the progression is 1 Major, V major, iii minor and II major (lydian). Doesn't that make the progression in G = G, D, B min and A. The chords listed in the progression 1 one example appear to be, I Major, V major, iii minor, II major or G,D,Bmin,D. It appears as if the II chord replaces the V chord. I can see that II Chord (A) is inbeded in the last chord (D -referenced in your progression as DMajor add 4), is this why you refer to the 'DMajor add 4" Chord as a II chord? Also in reference to the slash chords, it's my understanding that the note on the right side of the slash is the bass note. If this correct then would it make sense to refer to all these chords as "/G" since G is in the bass on all your voicing. It's apparent you know your voicing inside and out, I'm trying to catch up to your, so any help would be appreciated, Curious minds want to Know🙂. Thank you for this wonderful video, I'll be dissecting it with pleasure and incorporating your lesson into my musical life. Your fan...K ,
12:31 I feel like this progression just sounds like IV I vi V in D Major rather than G Lydian. I don’t think it’s doing much to tonicize G but I guess it’s in the context… I think a few of these are different voicings and colors of common progressions
@@Mallcom7000 You can't see it? The video editing and graphics were done heavily by AI, and so much so that it was both distracting and irritating. It made things worse not better, though it really should not be used at all in this manner, if at all.
@@RememberGodHolyBible thats not AI it’s just low effort editing and stock transition effects. There is no robot attempting to simulate intelligence in this video
can you show us how Frank ocean makes non tonality ambiguity chord progressions, and how he uses delayed gratification breaking the mechanics of pop music but still staying accessible because of replay value
@@neji7070 all of his songs are built following the same mechanics that's why he gets away with not releasing anything, ofc his sound production and lyrics also plays a huge role in creating that delayed gratification emotion.. but I specifically learn his harmonic approach
@@pyaratofu I’m not understanding you here. Tonal ambiguity expresses that the structure of the song doesn’t lead toward any centre or home when it comes to theory. While I can understand your point of delayed gratification, maybe it’s because he structures his songs in a composer style, but for the life of me I don’t understand how his chord progressions are non tonal? If you could name me at least one song where the chord progression is remotely ambiguous, that would help because I’ve also studied a lot of franks music and I can tell u for certain that they have a tonal centre
@@neji7070 I think you are missing the point, he makes it ACCESSIBLE, that's the whole point, he follows the Radiohead mechanics but blurs it enough to makes it sound tonal
@@pyaratofu i am not missing the point because you clearly stated 1. He makes non tonal ambiguity chord progressions. I’m not arguing that his music isn’t accessible and yes Radiohead has been a big inspiration for frank, you can literally hear it in his music. I just want to know just 1 song where his progressions define it as non tonal and ambiguous? There’s not much to fight over you on that except just naming 1 song
@@metamindmusicofficial My right brain doesn't have the words, but I will think about it. Watch Jacob Collier at Power station, emotive listening video.
Who cares just play or listen to music don’t do an in-depth analysis of it just enjoy. We spend too much time worrying about stupid crap like this, it pathetic
It's important to understand these concepts if you have a job like composing a score for a film or game. While I understand what you're getting at (because it annoys me as well when things are picked apart and compartmentalized or split into subgenre upon subgenre), it's very useful to know why something like this works and how to implement it when needed. ✌️
I don’t think analysis and enjoyment are mutually exclusive. The only reason for the breakdown is so that others can maybe play something they’ve never tried before.
Is analysis paralysis a thing? Yes absolutely but for me personally I learned best from analysis and seeing how something works. It gives you a guide to understand what came before, so you can create what comes after if that makes sense ❤

Also would be great to add permanent text with the entire chord progressions for each part, keep it up man, love your use for generated animations ;)

Endless thanks for the kind words. Excellent idea on exploring more sub emotions!
Commenting for the algo, biggups
Endless thanks 🙏
Fantastic breakdown, dude
endless thanks!
@@metamindmusicofficialwhere did you find that emotional circle? I need to find a copy of that
Yooo... Great explanation, for ease of referencing, can you name the progressions by their emotional theme?
100% will do.

Jumped in for the concept, left because the harsh piano sounds didn't make me feel anything
Noted for next time
