    I like how Bill does this thing where he just throws out typical writing theory (as if that really exists) by not centralizing around the bass line. This allows his chord changes and progressions to be so free and not tied down to the typical anchor of a huge bass line, giving you this free flowing and Bill Wurtz-y style that can go wherever it wants whenever it wants to.

    Bill’s approach to music is like watching a really great surfer. You can see the sets coming up, and know what they may bring, but it’s the artist/surfer what rides the wave and tells us what the wave really means. Musically, this means that he has a musical linguistic skill above most. I love the way you, Charles, break these down. It really helps with those of us who are still trying to capture this language for our own. Thanks for posting this, along with all the rest.

    Mystery chord at 8:50 is second inversion B major triad over an E bass note. The trick is that the upper voice is D#, so the outer interval is a major 7th, not a 5th (or 12th etc. etc.), as you voice it (hence why it sounds a bit different). I recognize that particular voicing because I use it all the time.

    If you play a B7 chord on a 6 string guitar tuned in E concert standard (E A D G B e), you can kinda get the chord you talk about around 10:00 minutes in, which is pretty cool. Takes almost no effort, and most people who'll play it for the first time will probably accidentally play it because they can't mute the 6th string or w/e.

    Great analysis again of my Bill Wurtz! one thing I was observing was when you breaking the "out to sea" moment at 11:46 the thing that types all the chords is the tonicity of A. We were in A major-esque then the chords of out at sea had similar chords with A in it so it jumps back to F sharp minor with ease cuz that common note chords.

  • @KattKirsch
    @KattKirsch 3 роки тому +2

    3:06 I think in most styles this point is pretty solid, but I just feel like those minor 7th chords are so important as a root in classic house music and eurobeat; and while there's an argument to be had that you're eventually moving away from those chords as melodies progress, those m7 jams seem to be the 1, or standing in for the 1 in their looping progressions. The chords are generally perceived as in motion from 2-5-1, which in my mind is precisely why house music just keeps you in motion: The 1 chord is a motion chord.

    Mr. Cornell, You should check out the soundtrack for The Emperor’s New Groove. I would love to see what you have to say about it. When you played the first three chords after saying, “We’re in F#minor” around 1:10 I knew I knew that from somewhere. I know, I know, you said that it’s used a lot. But it’s used in the opening line for the film and that’s what I associate with that progression of three chords. It is just a fun/great film anyway, and again I would love to see what you have to say about it’s music. And thank you for your fun analysis keep up the good work.

    When you were breaking down the intro, I got definite Danse Macabre vibes. Got that song earworm'ed into my head in my youth during a trip to House on the Rock. So apparently that's what those 4 chords say to me.

    5:00 - isn’t the F#m6 also equivalent to a D#m7b5? There’s so many ways you can write certain chords
    For example, a chord progression I was working on (inspired from Leia’s theme) goes A, Dm6/A, A, Bm7b5 and goes into other things from there. The Dm/A also serves as an A augmented because of the F note from the Dm. And if you shift the bass note from A to B you get that Bm7b5 chord

    • @alexandersanchez9138
      @alexandersanchez9138 3 роки тому +1

      They're equivalent as sets. However, typically a chord symbol like that tells you about the inversion. So "maybe" is the answer to your question, I guess; it depends on what kind of structure you force your "chords" to have.
      A side-note about your chord progression analysis--I would encourage you to consider the following alternative perspective: Rather than analyzing the Dm6/A as an altered augmented chord, see it as a the negative-harmony version of a V7 chord! Then, your progression is actually very classic, indeed, since you can analyze as essentially alternating between the I and the V--except the V is replaced by its negative harmony! As an exercise, try to see how the bass motion gets pulled back into the negative harmonies--your example is very clean/logical.

      @@alexandersanchez9138 I admit quite freely here that I know very little actual music theory... I don’t quite know what negative harmonies are 😅 in my head I was thinking I to iv to ii but with my extra additions as seen so many times.
      For context the entirety of my progression is as such:
      | 4 beats between bars |
      | A | Dm6/A | A | Bm7b5
      | Gm | Dm | C | Bb |
      | Am, G | Esus4, E | (2 measures per chord here)
      And then back to A. There’s a melody running through it that ties the whole thing Together, revolving mostly around the 3rds and 4ths of each chord. I have been thinking about it as Augmented previously because It’s kinda going 5th, augmented, 5th, diminished.
      I’m very open to your comments and ideas about negative harmony!

    • @alexandersanchez9138
      @alexandersanchez9138 3 роки тому +1

      @@justdavelewis Here's the standard analysis of the next bunch of chords: they immediately modulate to Dm, starting from the Gm chord. Later on, the G major chord is borrowed from D major (mode mixture) and helps modulate back into A (since the Esus4 is very close to an E minor sound, which follows very naturally from the ii-IV complex in D major).
      Negative harmony is when you take the pitch classes in a key (number the notes 0-11, so the tonic is 0 and count up to 11, the leading tone) and reflect them about the axis halfway between the tonic and the dominant (which also happens to be halfway between the major and minor thirds). That is:
      0 7
      1 6
      2 5
      3 4
      11 8
      10 9
      If you carry out this transformation for every note in a chord which has some standard tonal function with respect to some key, then you obtain another chord which has essentially the "negative" function, but with the same level functional of "pull" toward the tonic. Famously, V7 iv6 (as in my original comment).

    Rick Beato called B/E (or F/B or C/F etc.) the Genesis chord due to Tony Banks' frequent use of it, and he's not wrong about that. Tony loves his slash chords.
