1:35 this is how it starts
2:55 the benefit of ambiguity
4:08 why I don't start on chord 1 that often
5:35 the chords aren't set in stone...
8:00 but then

This could be the start of the Cordy Masterclass video series.
John - wow this post is amazing! Your post keeps getting better and better - you have nailed your audience. How does John Cordy think as he creates......just amazing
Now this is something that makes total sense. It is not a "how do I create backing tracks", but rather how John makes music that is actually enjoyable to solo over. So many backing tracks on TH-cam lead nowhere, thus making practice less efficient. Cheers, John
This is about the most consistently interesting and informative guitar channels I've stumbled upon. All delivered in such a chilled style as well.
I see you got tired of my Patreon messages and decided to just explain your entire process! Well done and thank you!
Thank you for explaining the music theory behind your backing track compositions. Very cool!
That outro ambience was incredibly creepy. You should play something over it sometime :)
The video I've been waiting for!
Great insight of your beautiful and musical mind & workflow! Amazing how efficiently you glide through it all when you have a clear "vision" of what you want plus the templates and systems you know work for you. Lots of work involved in the process to get to this stage. Thanks for sharing John!
I’ve been searching for this on TH-cam for sometime.. thank you 🙏
Brilliant. Super helpful, thanks. You're intros are so good... Doing something similar in my style has been on my list for a while.
Very cool mate! I did wonder about your process, so this is helpful
Very inspiring and insightful, and beautiful playing, thanks.👏👏👏
Favorite video of yours in awhile man
Awesome video mate - great to see the workflow, very impressive
Thanks John. Apparently you got my email. I'm a beginning reaper user and how you effortlessly glide through the whole process is amazing to see. Clearly you have put in the time and the hard work. Great job.
Now this, this is very interesting! Thanks for sharing! Useful, informative and helpful. You’re the man, John! 👏🏻 👏🏻
This was very informative! Thanks for sharing.
VERY interesting learning about your workflow John. Appreciate the peek into the process, I think I learned a couple of things I'd like to try out.
A real, useful and value lesson. Many Thanks, John:
I'm starting to suspect that actually learning some music theory might be good after all.. :D Amazing to see (and hear), well done
This is great! Please create more videos like this!
This is great, thanks John
Wow very good Video John!!!!!
Thank you man .. this is brilliant!
Thanks for sharing all those gold nuggets!!! Amazing
Super cool John
Outstanding! Thanks.
Very very cool. A lot of good tricks in this video. But I am even more impressed by your soloing now that I know that you record it without any background, just the metronome. Very nice
I was curious, so thanks!
Awesome video! Can you talk about how you record the first couple of loops? Were you recording straight the whole time and then you split it up? Or do you have some sort of floor board record trigger? Or perhaps there is a loop feature in reaper that creates a new track every time you create a new loop? Thanks in advance!
Very helpful thank you
Very useful... thank you
Very good!
so is reaper actually looping or are you recording and then going back to mimic it? I don’t understand how you get it to loop and be in sync with the video without stopping to edit. You could use something like super 8 to do the looping with foot switches? that would give you the sound of the guitar through the modeler in your monitors.
The leads here reminded me of Brad Paisely 🤠
Very interesting !
Sorry, I don't quite understand, are you actually playing only over the click?
Quick question John, do you outline the key of each of your backing tracks? With your inversions and chordal flavours I was just wondering as it would help dial in what to play over them etc. Keen to become a member!
Nice man! On side note, which neck p/u is that again? More sparkle in that compared to most tele necks? Im looking for the sparkle!
Damn….somthis is what I’m going to be doing today
What finish is that Tele?! 😍
Hi John, I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to music theory, so don't understand why leaving the 4 chord out of the first bits recorded allows room for the additional parts to florish. Could you explain, please ?
Great tutorial on how you do this stuff. Its nice that your backing tracks are available to your Patreon members, but i still say you should release an album proper of your instrumentals, I'd be the first in line to buy it.
John has done an album in the past. Google John Cordy Seven Good Days a Year.
@@jimmcdougall9973 thank you.
You're missing out on the 4 being the best note on which to resolve. Try ending a climax with a giant high four. I bet you like it.
He’s not though. By leaving the 4 out of his repeating phrases at the beginning, he’s still free to play one over that, within a melody or even the F chord. It’s because it’s not there in the loop that he’s able to use it in a resolution
@@Arthur_My_Dear Oh I misunderstood. I thought 4 was off limits altogether, not just in the backing loop.
I really love your playing. It's just so beautyful in melody and harmonics. Really great. For me you are one of the best!
So the first part of the video was of course the most interesting for me, but I apreaciate that you are also sharing your workflow on the PC. And I like Reaper :)
I still don't quite understand something. Do you just record 1 take to the click, and cut it up later to produce loops? Because the way you showed it, the backing tracks were already there.
may i ask why you leave out the F note ? the 4th note. is there more theory behind ? that would be amazingly interesting to know
The 4th being next to the 3rd can sound dissonant. Try playing a hexatonic (6 note) scale without the 4th and then include the 4th and you’ll hear the difference
What kind of recording software are you using.
John uses Cockos REAPER, from what I remember.
@@ksharpe10 Thanks so much.
Reverb n delay all videos😂
I love this video! So cool. Can’t wait to try this. Thanks @johnnathancordy!
