    I've been watching your tutorials for a month or two now and its helped me out massively. I've been having a blast learning how to make piano house melodies and learning chords among other things. I really appreciate these tutorials and they've been a HUGE help, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

    You guessed right on the point about my falling asleep while watching this. 😀 Therefore I couldn't listen and comprehend fully. In the previous video I watched it was 164 system. But in minors 2 wasn't working and in majors 7 wasn't working. In this video you use 165 instead of 4. (I assume that's a preference) So in this case would 1 6 4 system would also work with this vocal, or is this something included in 1% which is not working? 😀

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  Рік тому +1

      You're right, it's just preference. 1 6 4 would probably work.
      This video is not teaching what chords to use , it's just teaching why they are numbered as such.
      The chords used are entirely arbitrary. They could be 413657 does not matter.
      The 164 trick is a 'trick ' or 'hack' to get beginners on the way to making tracks faster that will sound less dissonant/unsettled. These are not absolute rules of any kind.
      It's true the chord 5 tends to be harder to implement but if you know the notes of the vocal/lead you can use chord 5 where a lead/ vocal plays notes of that chord. (see my other video into how to chord a vocal)

      @@Bthelick I had an idea for future live streams. You should consider allowing for the advanced submission of questions before the live stream that you will answer in the live stream. Then collect them and respond in the live stream. For example, one question I have is about low cuts. I have been low cutting everything except bass and kick. Although, won''t that cause phasing issues or other issues? For example, I cut all non-low instruments at around 175hz. Of course, the typical UA-cam advice is that if you don't low cut everything the frequencies build up in the low end that ultimately affect the kick and bass making them sound muddy.

    Great video thank you! Its helped my understand further. And that trick for moving chords is magical, Using the A minor scale to move the chords to other minor scales by changing the root note, and using C for major scales is a game changer for me! Makes it simpler for me to understand since they are all white notes.

    How should I think about famous progressions such as vi - IV - I - V? should I imagine it as major or minor? Since I watch your videos, I mainly think about the minor scale and then I see: i - VI - III - VII. I don't know the theory very well and I'm confused and there is no answer to this question anywhere. Many people give chord numbers in relation to the major scale, and some of them simply start with the 6th degree. I never know if it's still a minor or major scale.

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  Рік тому +1

      That particular progression, (now known as the axis progression after the viral UA-cam audition) can be seen/ heard as both major or minor. That's kind of its strength, and why it's so universal in pop music. It spends equal time in the common areas of both tonalities so it can either be both simultaneously or either. Regardless of start position if it sounds more at home as minor then it's minor. The vocal / lead is usually the giveaway. Because lead melodies for major will rarely land on a 6.

      @@Bthelick From a minor scale perspective, how to correctly look at the progressions from the song Daft Punk Get Lucky, is it "i III v IV" or "iv VI i VII"? As far as I know, it's probably the Doric scale. But I try to think about everything the way you teach. So I transpose to A and look at everything in the simplest and logical way possible, but I don't fully understand how to deal with this type of progression.

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  6 місяців тому +1

      It's up to you , you can think of it how ever it best makes sense to you, I couldn't call things in music 'correct' or otherwise! I hear it as 4 6 1 7 in minor (F#) as the melody keeps landing on that 1 and that feels resolved to me.

    scales don't start in A it start in C

    • @Bthelick
      @Bthelick  3 місяці тому +1

      They start wherever the tonal center of the key is.
      The scale of A minor starts on A.
      C major starts on C.
      2 different scales.
