- This is the music theory concept negative harmony, originated by Ernst Levy's and made popular by Jacob Collier, which is explained in 2 minutes. Useful for guitar, piano, or any instrument.
The only qualifier to the video I'd like to make (which I realized the next day) is that notes aren't paired up by the amount of tension to the key's major scale, but simply to the tonic itself. In other words it was misleading when I used a C major scale as a reference, because the note eb sounds a lot more tense than e that context. However, when the notes are compared just to c, the intervals eb to c and e to c have the same amount of tension as they are both 3rds.

Why is this every youtube theoretician's favourite subject?
idk I heard about it before but just never really saw how cool it was until now
they make videos based on what is trending to try and steal views from the popular channels. its like youtube leeches
2 minutes? I can explain it in like 2 seconds: flip all the notes upside down. You can then spend two hours about the science of what happens when you do that, but it's not strictly necessary.
Not a bad video, btw.
"flip the notes upside down" isn't an explanation of the concept.
@cubicinfinity2 I understand what you mean. I'm glad I don't have to know how my car's engine works in order to drive it :)
@kumada84 that's true too
@cubicinfinity2 thanks.
