I really like your Brainjo method. So the Tetris approach is a visualization of the next note in the melody and the whole melody. So the brain is ready a split second before the fingers play the next notes in the melody. Thank you for bringing us so nice knowledge of psychology and beautiful banjo folk music.
This technique would also work for dance choreography! I used to explain to my dance students that their minds needs to be at least one step ahead!
Absolutely!
I’ve been leaning tap, and use it there (along with visualisation, which is also a huge help!).
Just now while purchasing the Kindle version of "The Laws of Brainjo", I saw your book on migraines.
I've been dealing with migraines for decades.
I'm really looking forward to digging into both books.
Been a huge fan of everything you do josh for a long time! Was wondering if you could do a brainjo bite about making solos, more specifically how to choose correct* notes. Like in a GCD song in the key of g is it best to use g scale or can you use a c scale too? Any other input on making your own arrangements or improvising would be awesome!
This topic made me wonder if more experienced musicians like yourself can pick-up a song on the go with the same ease you pick (for the first time) a song you've been listening to for years. Reason for the question is that I was struggling to learn a new song on the banjo and failed for months. So I gave up and decided to try a cover of a different song that I've been singing for a decade. And it just took off flight after a couple tries. Does that gap between "familiar and new" also exist for more experienced musicians?
I’d say it’s always easier to pick up a song you’re familiar with. This is why starting with material you already know (including children’s songs, christmas songs, popular folk songs) is so helpful in the beginning.
Musical memory is a separate, and often overlooked, skill. And of course it plays a big role in how easily you can pick up new material. It too can be practiced. And it also improves just from listening to lots of material in a particular genre, as the brain will pick out common structure, chord progression, licks, etc. that allow you to chunk songs into larger pieces in memory.
