- Today we wrote our own jazz chord progression using completely random chords. We had to get a little creative, but in the end I don't think anyone would even know.

I loved this idea of gamifying theory as a way to open up new ideas. More vids like this, please.
Dice & card game was so cool Josh. The journey was excellent and you had me glued to throughout with your motif. Fabulous video quality and editing 😎🎹😁
Thanks Martyn
Cool food for thought! For whatever reason watching this video made me realize I need to be able to walk a better bassline in my left to free up some creative harmony possibilities. Good stuff!
Can’t wait for the D&D Campaign Jazz album 😊 ❤
Also this is very relaxing to watch even if I don’t get it 😅
Nice one, Josh. It reminds me of a performance by Barry Harris, but in that case they are melody notes.
It'd be even cooler, I think, or maybe not, to follow the exact order of the notes given by the dice.
I’ve seen that, where he writes a melody from cards drawn by the audience. Was a very cool performance.
@@JoshWalshMusic yes, very nice
@@JoshWalshMusic and Kenny Werner does something similar as well, very cool:

I used to do this a lot but I never tried to make the progressions functional; I just challenged myself to come up with a melody that would work with the random progression. It's a great way to come up with new ideas.
Great video and concept. Your new studio is great. Congratulations on all of your success. 🎼
Thanks! 😊
Very cool concept! 🙂👍
Aleatoric jazz…
Cool idea, I might have to try that out for one of my future videos music :) Thanks!
Great video, Josh. Thanks... Going to try this out.
Next time, you can even give yourself more restrictions: Let the dice also decide the Key, and quality of the chords. We'll see what comes out of it😅
Given that the dice has 12 sides, select different chord qualities for each side and just trust the dice.
Your only input would be the melody.
That could be worse than AI jazz!
You should try to make it work in the order you roll. Maybe roll a second dice to determine the quality, or a secondary function (not sure yet, just freestyling) and then fill in the gaps from there. It won't sound like jazz, but it might sound like something fresh.
You know, I did this in a practice run. The problem was that it forced me into completely impractical situations, which I wasn’t sure how I could make very educational. It was fun to try.
@@JoshWalshMusic yeah.
As someone who really likes chance and atonal music, I feel like there are lots of options.
I'm still not getting notifications of your uploads Josh. Dunno why. I'm getting getting them for other people I've subscribed to...
I’m sorry. TH-cam tries to notify you at the specific time you are most likely to watch. I find I get notifications a few days late too.
I’m glad you found the video though! Thanks for watching, happy Thanksgiving.
@@JoshWalshMusic oh it's not your fault :) i airways check anyway.
@@Ana_crusis if you watch all the videos 3x, leave comments, and share with your friends, it will train the algorithm to notify you sooner. 🤣
@@JoshWalshMusic it might do...🤔
@2:38 should've just hit 'em with a deceptive cadence ANYWAY (as a joke)
I thought about it! 🤣
I rolled the dice and got CCFFCCGC. Really stumped now…what to do?
Hear me out… make them all dominant
