    Found this gem today and I love how you explain shell chords. What sets you apart (for me) is the fact you not only explain a certain technic or shape, you also provides context and how to use it, while acknowledging that the most important thing at the end of the day is that it sounds good. My interpretation of that is to know the rules so you know how to break them with grace. Thank you for a great video.

    Hi Rotem! just to say that this has been the most valuable, easy to follow and powerfull topics I´ve seen so far and everything in just 13min minutes. This video also delivers the importance to have a printed version of the Real Book. About tritones, very well explained. My teacher just taught me tritones and his way of explaining was to substitute any dominant 7 chord in the progression with it´s #4 dominant 7th. Video request: what about 2nd dominant substitution? are those the same as tritones?? can you talk about it. Thanks a lot and will follow you channel and patreon right now!

    First of all great video. I just learned the drop 2 voicings and the inversions for those but I feel like there is more and this is the more. I would love to see your approach on harmonizing a melody on the spot. Like if you and your band are trying to write a song and someone comes up with a melody, how to make cool chords around that melody. Thanks man you're awesome 👍

    Wow... I can't believe more people haven't found this. Rotem, I found you with Paul last week. I LOVED that intro to jazz. I love the sound of jazz, but it seems so foreign to me. I love to listen to you describing what you're doing. Very inspirational. I can sit for 20 minutes just playing that E-dim, A7, D7, G7 to C7#9 progression. Thanks so much for sharing.

  • @TheBukester
    @TheBukester 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Might be the best video I've ever seen to bring lots of ideas together in cohesion. It can be a little difficult at times if one isnt a music student per se. The reference to numbers can be confusing - nuances like going from F to B in a chord progression ... I to the IV ... where as playing the root 3rd and 7th first and foremost and only occasionally flatten a 5th or 7th for effect. This can all be a little difficult for a layperson to follow but its starting to make sense

    Thanks a lot! You are great!

    I had not heard of no 5th shell chords before . Looking at this seems a great way to visualize the main tones, keep track of the role of each note in a chord. Another way though to break into real book is through using the 4 inversions of jazz chords using only d g b e strings.

Basically rhythm+lead guitar stuff; like a jazz riff? Please share with us how exactly YOU do it cause im interested in learning your approach to it. Thanks a ton youre my fav :)

    Hello Rotem. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us and congrats for your music, I love it! This is quite an old post so I don’t expect you to answer but anyways… I’ll give it a try. Both 6th and 5th string voicings can be moved to the 5th and 6th respectively. I was curious to understand if they are used like that as well, as clearly the main difference between the shapes is that the 7th and 3rd are inverted. Thanks and do keep playing !!!

    Got to admit that you have skill to explain things which are more or less complex in a way, that eventually they are becoming obvious. Secondly, I cannot explain it, but some kind of really good vibe can be sensible when watching your vids :) Anyhow - cannot wait to finish job and grab guitar to practice!
