That Epic Movie Music Sound: Chromatic Mediants!

[@radiozelaza]

you forgot about mediants from a MINOR chord! Cm to Ebm, Cm to Abm, Cm to Am, Cm to Em, Cm to A, Cm to E

[@tonybragg1676]

Thanks for all the tips. They are a great help. My wife and I are huge Banjo-Kazooie fans too! Great reference!

very good, congratulations video Dude How do I do a SOLO, or improvise over chromatic mediants chord, what scales should I use for that? make a video explaining about this subject please

[@jeffreygrantsr4525]

Antoine, I think you must have a bottomless bag full of ideas to share. Every lesson is unique and fun AND this one is no exception. How cool to play only two triads and make them sound totally epic like straight out of a popular movie. I was hearing several movie sounds distinctly. I am going to pickup my Strat and see what movies I can come up with.

[@AntoineMichaudGuitar]

Want to give back as much as I can! I can surely talk about chords for years and years! I want people to watch my free lessons on TH-cam and then go: ''WOW! If this is his free content, I can't imagine what his paid content is like!!!''.

[@checktheneck]

Really nice explanation. I would like to see lessons on "storytelling" through chord progressions.

[@m.m6928]

Wow! That sounds EPIC!
Thank you!

[@19universe81]

Thank you so much! Excellent content! So glad I discovered your channel

[@philoshaughnessy906]

Aaaargh!! The headless guitar player of doom. Any chance we can see what you look like?

[@watchyourtoneman5061]

Very interesting, it is really cool to have something explained like that. I play by ear a lot and I can hear what works and what does not. It is neat to know why that is in theory.

[@morhug441]

Ok so do I need to alter the modes I use as well for this I could start in c ionian but instead of aeolian for the change to the 6th chord would I use like one of the melodic minor modes or something

[@5882300rickroll]

appreciate this lesson.

[@phil71x]

Very nice indeed. Merci Antoine. Waiting patiently for your piano/synth lessons :)

[@thenorthstar311]

Awesome stuff :)

[@thomasshredster4627]

iv'e a silly question , does it apply only to major scale ?

[@AntoineMichaudGuitar]

That can apply to minor too. In both cases, you end up using chords outside your key when you use chromatic mediants!

[@thomasshredster4627]

@@AntoineMichaudGuitar thank you so much !

F-A(flat)-C
A-C-E
most famous chromatic submediant chord progression ever

[@Javier-qk7ms]

Exactly, most of us spend a lot of time learning or even stuck playing diatonic scales and chords that we sometimes miss the point there are no rules and there are lots non-conventional but cool chord progressions.

[@dankers12]

Very clear explanation with examples. Thank you!

[@logothescanandeffectmaker2122]

Thanks 👍🏻

[@timi_t_codes]

Learning Chromatic medians is a highlight of my day today. Thanks Antoine!

[@AntoineMichaudGuitar]

My pleasure!

[@antonstelmakou9495]

Antony, when will the KORDZ course begin?

[@AntoineMichaudGuitar]

It usually opens once every 6 months. BUT you can send me an email at [e-mail] for the complete explanation.

[@toulousemathieu6118]

For my ear the most beautiful, dark and epic mediant ( and you don't talk about it) is a minor chord separated by a major third with an other minor chord. It's used by John Williams in Duel of the fates ( Cm - Em ) and the feeling and darkness generated are just insane !!!

[@dishsoap8428]

not enough views for the simple explanation of an uncommon and difficult topic to cover.

[@alexjack9372]

awesome job man. absolutely 🏆💪🎸

[@Shadbae]

I dont get it but i love it i can feel the "sad" and i love the fact i do

[@AdamArrSquared]
