i trust this guy
with every cell of my body
I have still not seen the video yet but I trust too.
Will watch now
Idk
Hilarious
I've taken most of Berklee's online songwriting courses.. I had Jimmy as a teacher in one of them. Pat Patterson and his songwriting teachers are excellent...
Jimmy was one of my favorite professors at Berklee! So glad I'm still able to access these videos. 💜
Hearing Jimmy Kachulis speak makes me want to eat something, he speaks like he is talking about something very delicious
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
wait a minute is this dude's shirt secured with velcro
Hidden buttons. I've got a shirt just like it. the strip covers another underlying strip where the buttons are.
Were you paid by Velcro to insert their product here? Or were you speaking about generic latch and hook xD
@@sheakennedy1932 lol you explaining it is a joke in itself...
This is one of the most useful/impt lessons on youtube ever. Thank you so much. I've been trying to learn this very concept but didnt know the words "counterpoint". I'm so glad you taught this.
Thx a lot Jimmy! I thought for a minute that I couldn't write melody….had a mini panic attack. Your video reminded me of things I already knew plus added a few new insights. thx, i wrote something today :)
Really useful! You put across ideas so clearly. Thank you :)
I really enjoyed this video. Great job!
Im so glad i found this!! Amazing lesson, thank you
Loved this one, thank you!
I like singing with the bass to emphasize an idea. ie. choruses. Thanks for the tip
What is Mike from Breaking Bad doing teaching me vocal melody?
hahah nice one. Gave me a good chuckle
Very funny. Nice.
XDD

Crossed with Kevin Spacey
This video changed everything for me, appreciated.

I have joined Pat Patterson's Lyric Writing classes... And, it is the time to check The Songwriting classes.
Sounds like the theme somg of a sitcom
I liked it pretty much
Really liked the last part
Interesting thanks
Sounds good, u make great melodies and you really know what you are doing. But I still dont know how to do one for my vocals 😅
Good shit thx for the video
Wow man, we are in the Aladdin's cave trying to take as much as possible of the treasure.. Thank you so much Jimmy & Berklee Inst!
love learning how to sing from Al Michaels
Does anyone know where the next video in the series is please?
Thank you Kevin Spacy
hey!! I want to make vocal melodies like "Post Malone" please help me out!!! And appreciate your work🙏🙏
man the was dope and its from 2015.
Loving Jimmy Kachulis videos! Got me thinking about melody lines in all sorts of new ways. I'm currently writing and releasing 100 songs in 100 days on my channel, so this is very helpful. Would love to hear any thoughts or critiques from fellow songwriters and music lovers!
OK :)
Circle of trust
Hello. I need help. Do chorus and verses have any melodic relation or you just write them in different melodies?
Tony Soprano truly has taught me something today
Can someone please please tell if this is right. So he basically played the third with a few flavor notes over each chord he played in the first example. If thats the case I'm so happy I understand that and how pretty that sounds
There's really knowledge in this vid. But I wish this vid has visualizations while he explains. 😅
I love Yes btw
I can write songs, play guitar and write my own chord progressions, but I cannot create my own melodies without going out of tune, idm my voice but I'm not in tune man ahah I always fuck up doing vocals because I literally can't create melodies and it drives me up the wall my music sounds so boring
same man…i can make and produce songs but i always get stuck at making vocal melodies…even if i try it’s just too boring
So what comes first song lyrics or creating melody? How do you do this to a beat? I picked a beat or track as they say. I write lyrics. Then I’m stuck. I never record or do anything with those lyrics. So to stop self sabotaging myself do I need learn melody or vocal production to figure how and what places in the best to sing and time those lyrics ?
Baby doll Siren I’m currently looking for this. Can’t come up with the right terminology to ask a question but nothing fucking comes up. Very frustrating. I have a a couple songs in the mix and need vocal melody over it or the vocals and I can’t come up with anything that’s not monotonous or repetitive
Mr Stallone is not only a great actor, but a great musical instructor as well!
He reminds me of the dude from american beauty
Lol the melody he did first of is almost the same as myself by post malone
This guy was probably songwriting when Post Malone was in diapers.
help me
Silvester Stallone teaching songwriting.
He looks a bit like the villain from total recall lol
I wish the first five minutes of this video were as clear as the last 30 seconds.
Why’s Sylvester Stallone teaching me vocal melody
And i dont understand anything. Haha..
this guy is into doin somthin else. this can't be exactly writing songs, i wanna here write songs without touchn any instrument. i mean from the mind creating beautiful phrases and build structure...
You wanna do that then do it lol
He can write a melody. but he can't play in time.
It's jazz. Chill man.
I used every single of the websites for free free coins and gems, and just GameCrook was real.
