Aye yo’ I haven’t had this much fun since college, I believe. Undiagnosed ADHD and imposter syndrome brought about by years of external and internal self doubt made me believe I couldn’t learn. This is the first channel that was technical and nerd humor enough to bring my attention away from what I was doing completely. This will be the channel I choose to be the basis of reclamation for my musical journey. You make me miss my friends dearly. Keep up the good work homie. I appreciate every video. You brought back an old spark I thought that had been long lost.
Nerd humor? Who you calling a nerd?!!!! Kidding. Wow, this comment really means a lot to me. I made that series to use with my students and never expected lots of other people to find value in them. That’s great! Best of luck to you! Sometimes when you start playing music on your own terms, rather than under the crippling pressure of a school, it really ignites something.
I just started listening and like what I'm hEARing. I know that was very bad. I'm mainly commenting to assuage the TH-cam algorithm gods. Looking forward to going through the rest of this training with you.
I’m just getting started with your videos and I LOVE your humor!!! Thanks so much for making this fun and enjoyable! Other videos are as boring as waiting in the DMV 😂
Thank you so much for these series! I was having a hard time in analyzing each one individually cause I use hearing aids, and yours is the bes one t I have ever found and it's really helping me!
I'm so interested by your exercises! I need more particularly intervals and chords in musical context to identify the tonal center in multiple keys and musical genres.
thank you man . i’ve been trying to learn guitar but have absolutely 0 pitch and never really know what i’m playing i’m just following tabs. hoping this is my first building block in a long process
Thanks for watching, and I’m glad you found it helpful! Be patient and focus on daily steps forward. You might want to check out an intervals for guitar video I made as well: Ear Training for Guitarists - 1 Hour of Intervals th-cam.com/video/W1lN1qdrCtY/w-d-xo.html
I have tried an App on my phone as practice. I can reasonably idendify the Root 4th and 5th whne the root remains at the same pitch. Where I have problems is where the root changes pitch and then identifying if the 4th or 5th is played. 1st and 8th are not a problem but when the root is changed in pitch the 4th and 5th are a problem.
Yes I initially had problems with that as well. The thing that helps is learning to sing up a scale to these intervals (1-2-3-4, 1-4). Also, in a scale a 4th can resolve down by a half step, but a fifth rarely does, so I try to imagine the 2nd note of the interval moving around. Because of this, a 4th sounds slightly less stable. Once I get to lesson 7 in this series, I will introduce intervals going down, with changing roots, played with different instruments, and played harmonically.
The real difficulty about intervals is not melodic but harmonic. Few confusion can be possible beetween 4th and 5th or min3rd and maj6th ... To recognize chords, most important is harmonic perception and tonal center. Could you give us exercises about that? Thank you

Ok, question for bigger brains than mine: Why would you ever consider the 1st as an interval? It's just the same tone twice?! Isn't it like saying: Today I trained running, but only zero meters?

Intervals are the building blocks to every melody and harmony, and if you can’t accurately measure the distance between two pitches you are lacking a basic foundational skill to build upon. On the other hand, being a good musician is the combination of countless different skills, so yes if you stop your education with intervals it won’t be very useful.

I was gonna skip to the exercises like a big shot, but i did not want to miss your snark.
That was a test, and you passed
That moment when you get them all right with no struggle after it feels impossible at first is so amazing
Yeah!!!
i like how you teach
it's funny and educational at the same time ..Thank you
Glad you found it helpful!
Joe u kill me bro! 😂😂😂 ur the most amazing ear trainer I ever saw errr heard! 😂😂😂 and I have learnt more in one vid than in 1 month! 10q 10q 10q!
I’m really digging your videos. Very enjoyable presentation style. Thanks for the help with ear training.
Thanks for watching/listening
Wow! I love how you teach interval. I will never forget a perfect 4th and 5th👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 thanks
Thanks!
Really helped me to understand intervals
omg! the best ear training ever!

A real life saver Joe, thats what you are !!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much! Very useful and entertaining!
You’re the best. Your lessons make all the difference. You’ve made it all make sense, thank you!!
Hooray! Glad to hear it’s working!
I'm just a beginner and i was scared to start but your jokes made me feel chill and have fun hahaha
Thanks Joe🙏
Thank you for watching!
Thank you for these wonderful videos
You are welcome! Thanks for watching.
Ouch!.. you caught me right in the mush with that knuckle sandwich Joe.. 😖
Thank you so much for these series! I was having a hard time in analyzing each one individually cause I use hearing aids, and yours is the bes one t I have ever found and it's really helping me!
So happy it’s helping!
Tyvm I’m practicing every day with your videos
Awesome!
I'm so interested by your exercises! I need more particularly intervals and chords in musical context to identify the tonal center in multiple keys and musical genres.
Thank you very much for your video. I feel it’s so difficult to tell perfect 4 and perfect 5.
The singing tip works amazingly. You can feel the difference when you sing. When it's just listening, it's a lot harder to catch
you're awesome! thank you.
No, you’re awesome! Thanks for watching me talk about the fascinating topic of measuring the distance between notes with our ears.
Thanks a million. You have made my music theory exam less daunting ❤
thank you man . i’ve been trying to learn guitar but have absolutely 0 pitch and never really know what i’m playing i’m just following tabs. hoping this is my first building block in a long process

subscribed after the knuckle sandwich
There’s more where that came from.

LOL THANKS JOE
Lol- no problem!
The 4th also sounds like Auld Lang Syne, which is what I usually see people mentioning as a "reference"
Good one. It’s interesting how examples of the 4th usually involve scale degrees 5-1 (Sol-do) You almost never see 1-4 (do-fa).

Most useless thing is to learn intervals !!! If You have just one note how does it help You?
Intervals are the building blocks to every melody and harmony, and if you can’t accurately measure the distance between two pitches you are lacking a basic foundational skill to build upon. On the other hand, being a good musician is the combination of countless different skills, so yes if you stop your education with intervals it won’t be very useful.
