Blast Off (Silk Sonic) Piano Chords and Visual Analysis

Wondering what's going on inside the silky stacks of thirds and fourths in "Blast Off" by Silk Sonic (Bruno Mars and Anderson .Paak)? This visualization breaks down the harmony in realtime as simply as possible without using any notation.
For clarity I chose the key of E for the bulk of the song even though on a stricter level it changes keys every couple of bars.
Typo:
2:27 Chord should be C#/D#
Find any other mistakes? Let me know in the comments.
On a different TH-cam channel I also did one of these for "Leave the Door Open" from the same album: • Silk Sonic's "Leave Th...

[@synthasemusic]

You've found the secret silky sauce 🫒

[@bizumbeats8325]

Yep, and just to add: That G#/Ab appears in all of the chords.

You are doing something no one else is doing with this visualizar, keep uploading!

[@synthasemusic]

Thanks so much! It's been awhile but I'd like to get back to it.

[@franelbuc]

The Key Ring is MAGNIFICIENT!

[@synthasemusic]

Thank you!

[@tagt.4993]

You've got yourself another sub! LOVE seeing intricate chord progressions being laid out in a way that makes sense. And the fact that you tab the chords on the circle so that we know which ones we'll be using? So good. Keep it up!!

[@synthasemusic]

So glad it's helpful. Maybe you got this, but the tabs show the notes of the key that we're in. This song goes outside the key *a lot* so it's not as obvious.

[@EddieDexterStewart]

@@synthasemusic I agree. You've got another subscriber.

That modulation to F sharp gets me tearing up every time. That ending is just beautiful. I wish I knew how to play the piano so I could play songs like this. 😔

[@synthasemusic]

So many modulations on that album!

[@wwef6lr]

@@synthasemusic truly a work of art.

[@2Chancez]

yesssss, the modulation on Leave the door open fading out is my absolute favourite it gives me goosebumps

[@masterpage69420]

This is such a vastly underrated video 🙏

[@SiriusLeeMusic]

Best song on the album!
Dope video! 🔥

[@synthasemusic]

I love this track but I'm glad I don't have to pick a favorite off that album--they're all so good!

[@SiriusLeeMusic]

@@synthasemusic they’re all good but the chords on this song hit differently than the other songs imo

[@synthasemusic]

@@SiriusLeeMusic true--these ones are the lushest of lush.

[@Sithslayer10]

"After Last Night" is my pick :)

[@gustavoibarracarrizalez]

I was waiting for this for so long!!! Thanks!!

[@synthasemusic]

Hope it was worth the wait!

[@gustavoibarracarrizalez]

@@synthasemusic Definitively worth it!! Now I'm looking for the analysis of After Last Night, I'll be glad if it gets released

[@Jays8397]

You should make more song with your tools! Amazing work done

[@synthasemusic]

The keyboard in this song makes you feel like you’re listening funk/soul from mid 70s

Is this circle, the circle of fifth?

[@synthasemusic]

It's just what would happen if you bent a keyboard into a circle. More like the "circle of half steps."

[@MrSmith-ot9ei]

OMG....thats all I'm saying.

[@sika5908]

it's almost all sus chord😂

[@synthasemusic]

Yeah that's the sound!
