I transposed the mellow sax (as guitar), drum, and bass section Tetragrammaton to MIDI and the way everything lines up is suuuper satisfying. That’d be great if they made a video on a part like that :)
Hi orchidcolors!! Great to hear from you, as always :) Hope you're having a lovely August, and we wish you a fabulous weekend! Take care and talk soon :)
Just discovered this channel and I see I have been missing on something great for the last 2 years! Great explanations put forward in a simple manner! Kudos!
Hello! I'm here to just say hello, I'm a bit tired (you know Fridays are off here, and I had a lot of fun and it's 1:08 AM of Saturday actually). Have a great time my friends!
I get it, but i don't at the same time. Like, is TOOL constructing the song like this on purpose? Or just like, jamming and then this is what happens? Either one is fine, however, the latter makes more sense to me.
Hey Craig, thanks so much for stopping by! Did you catch our Opeth lesson from a few weeks ago? th-cam.com/video/RsGa6P_JzlU/w-d-xo.html Have a great weekend and we hope to see you again soon for more theory hacks!
Is the perfect fith functionally equivalent to the fourth ? is the major 2nd = mixolydian 7th ? minor 2nd and major 6th? ive heard something akin to this in music theory class and was wondering if you could clear it up?
I'm not sure how to best answer this, but inverted intervals aren't really functionally equivalent. What does happen is, if you're on middle C, then you go up by a major second, you're on D. If you are on middle C and go down a minor seventh, that's also D. I hope that helps, at least somewhat. :)
Thanks Jorge, and a warm welcome to the Hack Music Theory community, we really appreciate you being here! To answer your question, we use Reaper, which you can download here: reaper.fm Hope that helps, and we look forward to seeing you around :)

Thank you for teaching us more about polyrhythms. Hope you guys are doing well. :)
Hi orchidcolors!! Great to hear from you, as always :) Hope you're having a lovely August, and we wish you a fabulous weekend! Take care and talk soon :)
It amazes me to think how Tool produces such music cause its just way to different and way too good.
TEA! Thanks much guys! Amazing how staggering these different rhythms creates such a dramatic effect. Hope you're both doing well!
Great post. More Tool please.

Hello!

Hello Muhammadreza!! Thanks for stopping by, even though it's really late! We wish you a wonderful sleep and a happy Saturday :)
Hello back to you buddy ! Hope you have a great weekend !
Love that you’re covering more Tool!
Another great video! Would love to see you guys hack some Blind Guardian!
Hey thanks Ben! We'll keep an ear out for new music from them, thanks for the suggestion :) Have a fabulous weekend and we hope to see you again soon!
YES . . . THE DRILL!!!! :D AND, you guys are rhythm WIZARDS! Phenom!
Fantastic video! Subscribed! What DAW program are you using for this? It looks so user friendly.
Just saw in another comment, it’s reaper. Thanks. Please do more Tool! Pneuma, Right In Two, Invincible… there are so many to get lost in the spiral!
Very cool... great break down....What about the 32 note double bass drum fill sections. (Feet only). Gives you one hellava cramp in your lower legs..
Thanks as always. So good!
The bass sounds awesome. What vst is that?
Thanks Christian! The bass is from Steven Wilson's Ghostwriter: www.soundsonline.com/ghostwriter
Top 👍. I understand better now. Hope you are well 😎. Thanks for the great info. And. Happy weekend 🎵

Subbed these tool videos are great !
Awesome!
please make something about King Gizzard And The Lizard Wizard (mainly for the joke: Nonagon Infinity open the DAW)
I was like 'TEA!!!!!1!!!' Now my dog thinks I'm an idiot
Do you have a good reccomendation for videos/books on the basics of music theory?
Sure thing, we've got you covered! Download and read our free book: HackMusicTheory.com/Books
Does tool make this type of music working out the theory first, or in the feel?
Sambuddha Bajracharya
Like they said they feel first ... then comes the theory or it’s already in their genes ... I’ll vote for 1 &3
probably both.
Interesting
What is this software these guys are using?
Opeth Dignity next, please!

They are reflections of each other. Eg: C -> G is a fifth up but G -> C is a fourth down.

Very interesting video. Thanks a lot. May I ask what's the name of that software you use?

Yesssssssssssssssss
That reminded me of Mastodon.
What artist would you like us to hack?
Deftones?
Karnivool - We Are. I'm desperate to know how times his vocals. This song has a completely unique feel.
Animals as leaders.
Queens of the Stone Age
Illenium - Beautiful Creatures :)
What's that intro track?
That's our music, which we wrote using the theory from Tool's new song :)
@@HackMusicTheory nice
Hack Devin Townsend, evermore.
