    Despite the fact that I've already learned these techniques through simple experience and only digesting chord knowledge from playing literally hundreds of covers.
    This video would've blown my mind like 3 or 4 years ago.
    You described some pretty complicated stuff in a very simple and easy to understand manner.
    Very well done! :)

    I’ve been playing for 8 years now but I’ve just been struggling with theory. I don’t get how you figure out chords, I never knew if people memorized them or if there was a trick. This was really helpful, but more videos like this would be great! Thanks so much, and if you could make a video tutorial on Drowsy by Bane’s world that would be sick. Keep it up!

    These are the glory days, at around 11k subscribers, where the comments are still supportive and helpful, where the community is slowly building itself from the ground up, and where Djence doesn't have to pretend to like his fans. There will come a time when memefreak teens will litter these comment sections with inside jokes that are not funny and pun trains that are not fucking funny. For now, however, we may enjoy these relative moments of peace and quiet while they last.

    • @Aaaaaa2_3
      @Aaaaaa2_3 7 років тому +2

      No, it depends on the UA-camr, Djence has been really calmed with his community, he hadn't used memes or things like that, so his audience acts different. for example Fantano, his audience is like that because he started using memes, he even had a meme channel, that's why.

    Great video, Jens! I don't play the guitar, but I am a pianist. The section on strumming was very interesting to me. The theory was right on target! I have to use the same ideas on the piano. I am often given music with the melody line and which chords to play. For instance, I can play the chords in different configurations in different places on the piano. For any one who thinks theory is boring, my training has served me well! And yes, stigma is a perfectly good word, and you used it correctly. I can't see a place to identify myself. So, I'm Roseann from the Frielink family.
