I’ve been playing for 25 years and have my degree in music and this was one of the best moments of my UA-cam life. So well explained and executed. I couldn’t help but grab my guitar.
finding lofi to be what I've been hearing in my head for years, but did not know what it was called. putting Studio 1 to use with these new guitar sounds and having a blast
This is one of the best, freshest guitar videos I have ever seen. He's also showing a great deal of options to superimpose pentatonic scales for different modal sounds, without any extra bs he's just showing HOW. Fantastic video.
Loveeee what your doing for all of us Rotem! All your content is top notch and your music is beautiful. Easily one of thee best channels to follow on UA-cam. Thank you so much!
9 minutes into the video and i am actually playing lofi neo soul stuff and understand why and what i am doing. thank you so much! this might have been the most efficient lesson i ever got :)
4:19 starts to get dense from a theory perspective. Here is what he's saying. An Fmaj7 chord has F-A-C-E notes in it. And an Am7 chord has A-C-E-G notes in it. Notice the A-C-E are the same - but we are changing an F note and a G note. If you play an Am7 over an Fmaj7 then you're really just adding a G note and G is the 9th of Fmaj. So... one could argue that playing an Am7 over an Fmaj7 is ACTUALLY just playing an Fmaj7add9 but leaving out the root note.... Thats why we call it theory...
I just discovered this lesson and it has filled a cold, rainy Saturday with beauty. I really like this approach and I think I have a lot to learn from it. Joined the Patreon for more down the road.
Rotem it’s always such a treat to watch and listen to your videos ! You are so musical and an amazing teacher too. I don’t know how you can so gracefully go from playing with great feel to explaining / talking about the theory behind it almost in the same breath ! Kol a kavod it’s very impressive!
Beautiful lesson, and what an intoxicating looped blend. I'm not au fait with neo-soul or lo-fi, but I'm off to learn more now... Forgetting that, the tune is etched into my head now, and I'm happy with that. A great lesson and your style and teaching delivery is, as always, a joy, Thanks once again Philip
Your approach to music is so magical. You obviously have a lot of technical knowledge but there is something aetherial and intuitive about your approach.
Hi Rotem, your music is so inspiring and beautiful. This lesson created a revelation for me about using multiple pentatonic scales and chords (derived from diatonic upper structures with common tones) over the progression, rather than just playing the parent key scale or scales associated with each chord over the changes (limited understanding of what was possible). Thanks a lot 🙏🏻
Superb video and coming across it couldn't have come at a better time for me. Just beginning my journey in lo-fi and starting to incorporate guitar into the mix. Well done!
Great video, Rotem. Simplicity is often underrated by musicians, many of whom focus overly on flash and speed instead of soul and feeling. You break this down well so that novice guitarists will learn valuable lessons and more experienced guitarists will still learn or relearn insights.
My Studiopartner studied classical Piano at a High Level and He hates it nowadays.. He told me He should have stopped after 1 year because everything after that is Just overcomplicated and is in the way of writing simple,yet emotional pieces.
Your video course is so easy approaching but yet contain so many details that it's worth pausing and going back to again and gain. Thank you for being on the other side of the screen
Thank you! so much. This is amazing man. Is the best video in youtube to improvise and learn all at the same time. Long time not having so much fun playing my guitar. Thanks again
Very nice! Really love that percussive loop you created at the beginning. I know your guitar has some special tricks up it’s sleeve, does it have a piezo picking up that percussive sound? Wonder if I could get something similar sounding out of my Epiphone casino…Thank you for another great lesson, take care.

Same
Feelin pretty much the same about this. I didn’t even know it had a name.
@@williamhurrelbrink3324 the same thing with me
You’ve been hearing jazz chords for years and didn’t know what it was??

So… Fmaj9?
Sorry I’m dumb and read 1 book of music theory lol, still trying to understand it
@@toybonniesfm Hey! Don't call yourself dumb just cause you don't understand something that takes most people a decade of study to fully grasp.

Beautiful as always. The Emotion and dynamics you convey through your playing is just beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you for encouraging me to develop my ideas more. You're right, the base and foundation doesnt have to be complicated.
absolutely love this! Been listening to lofi constantly but never knew how to translate it to guitar - this is so helpful!
Superb video and coming across it couldn't have come at a better time for me. Just beginning my journey in lo-fi and starting to incorporate guitar into the mix. Well done!
Thank you, enjoyed playing along you, love the content and the way is presented

Very well presented. I like how you show ideas and options on how to play simple progressions. Cheers!
i had a blast jamming with u champ! thx for everything
Your dynamics are just out of the world!
some people just have the gift of teaching, conveying their ideas and knowledge, with no ego. you definitely have that gift. great stuff
THis is amazing, Ive tried your progression and loop it , sound so good. Thank you
The most amazing video on Lofi. Thank you!
Your the man bro. Been listening to your stuff for years. Thanks for the good vibes.
