The piece sounded beautiful, and I loved reading your commentary. It was very insightful and educational, and it's always nice to get to know more about a composer's thought process. When you mention how midiChordAnalyzer doesn't have m7b5 and sees it as an inversion instead, that reminded me about how apparently Thelonious Monk, Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, and other musicians from that era of jazz thought of the m7b5 chord as a minor triad with the 6th in the bass or an inversion of a min6 chord. Then later on, people started calling it m7b5, and I guess a lot of people also call it half-diminished now. 雲も霧も散り 消え去ってゆく 然れどもやがてまた雲合霧集するであろう 😊
Thank you! looking back it's a bit disjointed in my eyes but hey glad ya got some insight haha Speaking of insight, I actually never knew that jazz musicians of that time considered it as an inversion of min6 wowie, but it makes so much sense especially in the context of Barry Harris' method where in his minor 6th diminished scale, it naturally appears as a chord tone! And I believe he was inspired deeply by Thelonious Monk. Thank you for telling me this, the more you know!
I just spent a good 30mins trying out stuff to your subtitles haha I LOVE when composers put them in but you actually made it extremely fun to play around with them. There's a lot of stuff I'd comment (like yeah us being addicted to the #vi scale degree and I've actually noticed that past songs that I loved as a child had those too) but there's just too much haha Now when my workload will deflate I'll be extra motivated to try to do some more compLex harmony (but probably with more repetition lol, I like that) Tysm for the video!!!
will try putting these spicy chords in a DAW when I get time. Thank you for taking your time making this
love the meandering melodies over the deceptive progression at 2:36. manages to feel both carefree and tense if that even makes sense lol

Have fun on the harmony grind! 💪
@@tempura-ocha HECK yeah we're not letting studies delete my limited composition skills
Very nice!
