      I've made a tutorial on the main chords, but the intro is the hardest part. It's a masterpiece that only the person who created it knows how to teach it. It can't be found anywhere, no lessons, no tutorials, nothing. :(

      @uv77mc85 Рік тому

      ask yourself how he made that piano intro when he says he can't play piano? i can play a bit and i couldn't do that. I could copy it, maybe but it would take ages to learn. He says he did it on a sequencer but 80s sequencers were really tricky to program and something as complicated as that would be a very long job.

    Everything comes from the same place, blues, jazz, soul, funk r&b, new jack, jackin, jackin house...
    The special thing about this song is that everything was without samples, everything was without tricks, it was sincere and authentic, yes, it is not a particularly high school song like Michael Jackson's, but that is what makes it even greater. No being a singing or music superstar, he showed that underground musicians can be just as good and memorable as those from the jet set.
    I have a special predilection for house and hip-hop from the 90s, but above all I love traditional black music, a lot of things from Africa and New Orleans.
    That for me is what always keeps me alive, and if I want electronic music to dance to I put on Marshall and all those who were great during his time.
    Thank you all for all your work, marshal, nuckles, atkins, saunderson, todd terry... I sincerely love you all.
