🛑Hey you... yes you! 1) Please consider subscribing and checking out some of my other videos if you found this video helpful: ua-cam.com/channels/sYpdW9QJzm6nw3va3mOlfg.html 2) Sorry if some parts don't seem coherent (or didn't flow well), I had to record in multiple sessions, and my computer is ancient so editing and rendering this video took forever :( Also, I am just getting used to this recording thing. Talking to a camera is hard! 3) I understand that what I shared in this video is not exactly what he was talking about these the masterclasses: -Jacob Collier Qwest Masterclass (Paris): ua-cam.com/video/mLJVvjqMjbo/v-deo.html -Berkley Masterclass: ua-cam.com/video/RSPXgdeKLTs/v-deo.html But what I share in this video is kind of on that tangent and can be very helpful for your playing! 4) This concept can be expanded more, you don't only have to borrow from the key of D major. Really you can borrow from virtually any key. I just tried to simplify the idea so you can practically incorporate in your playing be reducing the concept to borrowing from D.
Amazing voicings. I'm definitely going to practice those to upgrade my chords. As a music teacher, I understood what you were doing as you explained "playing in D major". D major is the scale that becomes the relative major to B minor. The thing is you're resolving to a B major 7 chord. So uts like you're borrowing grom the minor, but resolving it to become major. It's a simple yet complicated concept that's really juicy to dig into. Can't wait to play around the circle with this concept. Again, thank you! #IronSharpensIron
Interesting way of teaching this topic. This is modal interchange. In particular you switching between B Ionian and B Aeolian. The use of the “b7” back to B could also be viewed as a tritone sub
Also the video that you’re referring to with Jacob Collier, he was talking about approaching your target chord from the right (plagal) instead of the left (perfect). So instead of doing a 2-5-1 for example in the key of B you’d do a b7-4-1. All in all great video
Wow you have another depth of knowledge about this! I never thought of it that way. I think about it as changing keys from B to D but I am not too knowledgeable about modes. I need to look into this more! But yes that "b7" in D is exactly a tritone sub for the 5 in B. Though for some reason I don't like of think the b2 or #1 as a tritone sub for the 5. While I understand the theory, it does not seem like a substitute for the 5. To me it feels like another resolution completely.
Saw yall discussing and couldn’t help but chime in lol…a few things I wanted to add: 1. I second the notion that what you’re teaching here is most clearly and directly defined as modal interchange. (Specifically borrowed from parallel minor (B minor)). 2. What Jacob talks about is indeed plagal motion to approach the key as this commenter is saying. What you have here is still perfect motion but in the parallel minor. (That 1 4 7 3 6 2 5 sound) 3. b7 in D (the C) as you are using it is not a tritone sub since you’re using a Lydian hybrid sound (the D/C chord). Well I guess it’s a bit ambiguous since there is no 7 haha…but if you played a C7 that would definitely be tritone substitution…the whole idea behind TT subs is that the tritone inside the dominant chord is the same in dominants that are a tritone apart 😁 sorry, a bit verbose lol…all I’m saying is that is that the C chord being a tritone sub or not depends on the structure you use on it!
@xave3829 Wow that point 3 makes perfect sense! I never actually voice that chord as a tritone. That is why is never sounds like a tritone sub to me! For point 2 Yeah I caught that when I rewatched the video 😅
As someone who's just started to delve into harmony beyond diatonics, what exercises can I do to build the intuition required to pick these concepts up faster?

Brilliant. No clickbait. All applicable content. Your dexterity shows.
Thank you! My dexterity is improving 😅 But no sir, no clickbait!
This wasn’t clickbait at all brother! This was wonderful thank you!
No sir! No click bait🫡 My pleasure to help!
Gracias hermano es muy claro lo que usted nos transmite 😊
No problemo! Yo hablo un poco espanol
Great channel just subbed. Your short videos are great and the longer ones are even better.🎵🎶🎵🎹
Thank you! I have plenty of content planned! So stay tuned :)
wow...........I get it now.......your voicing are really beautiful.........a seriously talented "cat" to be sure.
Thanks I appreciate it! Glad to help :)
Much love brother!
Much appreciated
Awesome lesson! Glad your video found its way to me. :)
Thank you! Glad it did too!

Yes it is definitely great stuff to try out! Let me know what you discover!
From what I'm getting, you're playing on a minor 3rd scale higher but but the melody stay on the original key :) Wow man... This is great stuff😉
Yes, That is exactly it! My pleasure 😆

Yes, you are right. I didn't exactly do this here 😅 But I still like playing around on that other side. Love the b7 sound!

I have a video in the works that will hit this exact point! Stay tuned... the concept though is that of secondary dominants!
Great
Thanks :)
Definitely the 2nd
Yup!
1:00 😂😂😂😂
Thanks, I laugh at my own editing as well!
Love it
Appreciate it!
B😢 the only key I struggle with 😅
Haha I understand. I will do videos in other keys! But if you understand the concept, you can apply if to any key 😆
Also learn B :)
Yeah I struggle with it conceptually but mechanically it's pretty easy
Number 2 of course sounds like Jacob Collier
Correct ✅
