    Quick fun MinMaj7 factoid I forgot to include- If you take an Augmented triad, you can pick any note and add in the tone a half step above it. This will give you a minMaj7 chord in some inversion or another. There is an Aug triad in every mM7 so you may get the Aug feel out of it, depending on the context

      1dir I love this chord progression. It’s major actually. But your borrowing the minor 4 from the parallel minor. That minor 4 to the major 1 is called a minor plagal cadence

      Are you thinking of Radiohead's 'Creep'? That's I - III - IV - iv.
      I don't think it's in any particular mode - it seems to modulate, if that's the right term.

    7:11 That's a good general explanation of why music theory is so important; especially if you're interested in creating music yourself. It's about chunking information and labeling stuff so that learning the whole language of music becomes easier and so you don't have to rely on just trial and error alone. Also: just being able to very quickly communicate musical ideas with others is such a blessing!

      Cool! Dream Theater is the first thing that I thought of when Jake was going between the major root and the mM7 4th. My brain pulled some of DT's songs from its index and immediately identified the familiar-sounding progression. It's almost like inhaling a scent that you haven't smelled since childhood and reliving it again, except now I am able to identify the "chemistry" that makes up that scent.
      Thanks, Jake, for adding knowledge so that I don't just have to wait for that "scent" to appear. Now I can recreate it myself. You're awesome!

  • @philipgreenwood3251
    @philipgreenwood3251 ปีที่แล้ว

    Min(Maj7) under melodic minor has a super strange effect on solos.
    Take a fragment of Am(M7) as ascending arpeggio = G# C E G# (7 b3 5 7). This arpeggio has several tones from the augmented scale.
    But continue playing after this augmented triad up the melodic minor, gives you G# A B C. These are notes found in the diminished scale.
    So you can play an augmented scale run that leads into the diminished scale.
    And because both augmented and diminished scales repeat, you can play this augmented diminished run up and down the neck and it sounds crazy.
    Care needs to be taken as you can't use the full augmented or diminished scales, but playing scale fragments really works over min(M7)

    There is also the Hendrix Chord; for example, G B D F A#. A mysterious way to end a song is to end it with a Hendrix chord followed by a Hitchcock chord (min maj7). So follow GBDF A# with C Eb G B. The song Invitation by Kaper does that.

  • @GUIM1797
    @GUIM1797 6 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    The "spooky" factor is actually a really late use of the "minor Major 7th" chord. It has been used for centuries as a retardation (i.e. a delayed resolution) rather than a "chord." Bach's St. Matthew Passion has a ton of amazing uses, but one of my favorites probably has to come from Monteverdi. When they used it back in the day it was usually to convey anguish and lament rather than "spookiness" or "mystery." It's a fantastic sound.
    You can also use the chord as a double retardation, but that's a much less common use.

    That E - Ammaj7 progression is so emotionally complex. It's kinda youthful, innocent, and sweet, but with a bit of mournful sadness...and also romantic. It's almost like young love with a sadness to it...like a 17 yr old girl discovering her betrothed won't be coming home from the battlefields of Normandy.

    Those also show up in the minor line cliche, like in "Stairway to Heaven", which goes from A minor to AmM7 but in third inversion. Jimmy Page loved that kind of move in Zeppelin's more romantic tunes.
    Of course, it's all over the place in standards, like Ellington's "In A Sentimental Mood" or Kern's "Yesterdays."

    Great episode as usual. I loved the intro :) I'll definitely experiment some new backing tracks using that chord. Do you think it sounds similar to diminished or m7b5 chords? it would be good if you could make an episode about those dark/spooky/tensed chords. Keep rocking.

    Funny intro, lol. Other notable songs and scores using this chord:
    Stairway To Heaven (2nd chord of the song)
    Fooled Around And Fell In Love (bridge of the song, same chord progression as the Beatles tune, this chord progression is quite common and probably the way you will hear it used most often in pop songs, the stairway intro is actually the same progression as well, lol)
    Final Fantasy 8: Deep Sea Research Center
    Final Fantasy 7: Vincent’s Theme
    These are the only ones I can think of right off the top of my head. It’s a bit of a specialty chord.
