this channel is without a doubt the most creative thing I watch on UA-cam. the new space idea is quickly turning this into more of a show with educational components which is just awesome.
SUPER cool to see a chord progression video that isn't just keyboard/piano roll. music theory really sticks in your head once you hear the concepts over multiple instruments!
Thank you for targeting underrated simple tips which are not the go-to generic ways to spice up chord progressions, those simple tricks are lonely and need some love; and some like Voicing start giving endlessly diverse results once you start considering layering and orchestration in general ^^
This is SUCH a clear explanation of how and why song chords can look so funky and have a ton of variation. Seeing you start with something basic and then add successive layers of tweaks is a really helpful example
On days I'm feeling inspired I instinctively do some of this and others day I feel so stuck. It's nice to be aware of what I'm not doing. Really helpful stuff
Yo. First.. you're an excellent teacher. I love how your structured this and piece it together one bit at a time. Second... your voice is GORGEOUS in this song. So nice.
While we appreciate this UA-cam channel like gold, it also hurts a bit that you are not recognized as one of the influential musicians in this generation. ( but you already are.)
I've got a lot of complicated feelings about watching monsieur Huang's videos because I've been pretty disabled the last handful of years and money is scarce, so between the two I've barely done as much music as I'd like or acquired the gear I want heh. On the flip side, his approach is so friendly and welcoming and he always makes a point of not gate-keeping music in terms of level of experience or gear or whatever while being informative and it's such a fresh reminder that anyone can do music and it has inherent value as what you want it to be or make of it, the only rule is to create.
If Andrew's ship is going fast enough, perhaps he can use time dilation to write a song with some out of this world time signatures. This would also be a good opportunity to do a cross over event between Andrew Huang Spacetime and Matt O'Dowd SpaceTime (PBS). #spacetime #MattODowd
I know people knock your vocals sometimes, but damn did it work really well in this song! Also, weird compliment but your eyebrow shape is really cool.
after years of production, I've learned I do some of these subconsciously but having andrew put it into words is really insightful and solidifies what my mind kinda knows. great video for ppl trying to improve the sound of their repetitive/boring chords, wish i saw this years ago tbh
For anyone wanting a better (or at least more ergonomic) way to play that E/G#, use a C-shape Barre chord at the 4th fret. If you're new to that shape, you can practice playing an open C chord without using your Index finger and then work on moving that up the neck while barring your index.
DUDE!!!! Why are you not happy with you voice it is absolutely sick!!!! last song I bumped it up to 1.5 speed and was kind of wishing for a complete song. Love your work as they are always educational and you give me tons of inspiration for my own music.
This song I need asap so I can binge it, blast it in my car, and fall asleep to it ❤ First vid of yours I watched. Subscribed so hard. That tune is epic. I haven't played my use since my Gmail died last summer. I played it for her while she rested. Youre ispiring me to go pick up my electric
Absolutely loved the tutorial! Great song BTW, a serious emotional trip in chord progression and the vocals were definitely on point! Thank you Andrew!
Between your vids and my bud who is a complete theory nerd, I feel like I'm getting this... you open the box, he helps me sort through it more. Thanks!!
Andrew would have known he's putting this out on April Fool's Therefore, he missed his window to say it was all a joke and now can never admit the truth until next April He'll be stuck in space for a year
When borrowing chords from outside a key use parallel modes. That implies a plagal cadence and is a really easy way to experiment without having to think too much about it.
Hey Andrew - great ideas. I once worked with a guitarist backing cabaret singers and he used extended chords virtually all the time. The problem was, he played so many notes that one of them was bound to fit the chord structure :-) and the progression often lost its definition. It tended to turn everything into a saccharin Radio 2 (for UK listeners) version of the song :-)
The last addition made the whole song much more Radiohead, which is always a good thing in my book! You've done a stellar job with this, man (no pun intended lol).
a great way to work around that weird e shape with the g# in the bass would be to play the g# in the 11th fret on the a string (ring finger), then bar the d, g and b string with your index finger (9th fret). you can also play the open e string in the bass, with that 10th intervall between the e and the g# thats an amazing sounding chord. you can do a hammer on from the 7th to the 9th fret on th a string as a nice embelishment. its a simple major inversion but i really like it as a different sound for a major chord.
Though I'm past one hundred thousand views I'm feeling very chill And I think my chord progression’s the way to go Tell my wall of Euroracks, I lost the all knobs to the LFOs Ground Control to Andrew Huang Your control volts are dead,there's something wrong Can you hear me, Andrew Huang?
Thanks man , this will help a lot of people , including me !!!! I never had any lesson in playing music , no theory !!!! Years ago , I found an old guitar in our attic , and .... 😊
Blew my mind seeing you using my piano plugin! I hope you're enjoying it

Wow I’m glad you’re watching my stuff hi! Great plugin

I was just about to comment that. So great to see the imagiro piano in an andrew huang vid. Getting the recognition it deserves!
@@andrewhuang hey it's Lim Doyeon, (clap) between 2031 to 2040, it released a future car called Manifesto.
Andrew announced that he was going to have a baby and then went to space. I never imagined he would be a deadbeat dad :'(
But one day we'll have the documentary where the baby grows up to be an astronaut to find an absentee father.. Like interstellar in reverse.

how are you verified with 8 subscribers? genuine question bc i wanna get verified

@@ethanjyoungmusic i dont have a distributor, but how do i set up UA-cam for Artists?
The production values on these are outta this world! Yet another thing that makes this channel one of my favorites.
I see what you did there. And I am not complaining
how the hell did u got verified while having only 7 subscribers?
the budget for whatever this channel has become just went through the roof all of a sudden
i like it
Literally through the roof, since he’s in space.
Andrew, who is definitely in space, brings us an excellent video, which he definitely made while in space
It is amazing how he is able to use all the technology that not even nasa has
He is for sure in space 😉
So am i stupid or is he not in space currently? or is he and these are just all prerecorded?
@@trextonhaldeman323 He’s not in space, it’s for a show

Two chords, doesn't get much plainer than that.

That B section was BEAUTIFUL. Really nice progression
When you wanted to write a song with this progression but Andrew already writes one that is instantly better.
UA-camrs: make a tutorial
Andrew: makes a baller tutorial, adds lyrics to his examples, arranges, records and mixes a great song.
In space
I really love how your voice sounds in the demo
That chord progression and melody at 8:10 is really gorgeous !
Lolll this is a very expensive April Fools joke, well played ❤
EDIT: also, your music is fire as always
This could be his new studio
@@theoracle7463 true, but I prefer to think he invested thousands of dollars and many hours of labour into one joke
That chord progression that starts at around 2:20 is so Young the Giant-ish and I absolutely adore that
"ask your bass player to do it" is going to be my answer for everything from now on
Really love all of the space editing stuff, it’s so cool, also a lot of people still think it’s real lol
I don't think anyone does. Lol
Maybe before he "went" to "space". But now it's so over the top.
@@illestvillain1971 I did ;-;

Dude that bit at end sounds awesome
all these space videos are totally awesome
4:15 I love the sound of moving tenths like that!
I totally heard that c#m before you suggested it to play between a and b, pat on the back for me
that last bit sounded incredible
god those drums are CLEAN
How the hell is his spacecraft or space station matching the color scheme and theme of his personal studio back home? haha. Oh my. Such awesomeness.
these simple tutorials are the best, thanks andrew!

Coming back around from tip no.7 to tip no.1 brings us to the topic of things like secondary dominants which are good fun

You're the best Andrew!
Love the space vids. Love when youtubers spice stuff up like this.

Dude, you're so talented man.
Legitimately the best music UA-cam
4:22 every guitar part in pop music for the past 6 years
Between Andrew and Rick Beato, I feel like I'm getting a world class education in music here on UA-cam. Super grateful for all your work! 🙏
FINISH THIS SONG AND RELEASE IT- wow I'm going to listen to this every day
The space ship idea is awesome man
You ROCK Bro! Love you analytical and organic approach to songwriting/composition! Also, I can definitely see you in SPACE SOMEDAY! Thanks 🙏 G
Okay, there is something about that song at the back of the video...the Bmadd6 to F#m especially, and the falsetto works beautifully the whole time
the last song he wrote there was amazing. i loved it. i wish it was an existing song
this just changed my life
thanks man!
even from space. you still teach us all how to write! thank you
My favorite video of yours really felt like I learned something
Dude you're awesome.

My GOD that song felt good! RadioHead would be proud of you! Ok, I’m going back to listen to it for the 10th time now!
That simple chord progression has been stuck in my head now. Played it myself, recorded and sounds so good. Thanks Andrew
This is *Super* useful. Thanks Andrew!
This is your most helpful video you’ve made!
Andrew would have known he's putting this out on April Fool's
Therefore, he missed his window to say it was all a joke and now can never admit the truth until next April
He'll be stuck in space for a year

8:14 Instant Thom Yorke vibes. Thanks Andrew you are as ever, the greatest music teacher!
I was getting Chris Martin vibes
studio tour please!!!

What are parallel modes?
Cool thanks for the tips
Hey Andrew - great ideas. I once worked with a guitarist backing cabaret singers and he used extended chords virtually all the time. The problem was, he played so many notes that one of them was bound to fit the chord structure :-) and the progression often lost its definition. It tended to turn everything into a saccharin Radio 2 (for UK listeners) version of the song :-)
thank you, I love videos that explore composition posibbilities in an easy to digest way
I was hoping that you were going to eventually end with a grande finale of the chords to "Never gonna give you up". This is cool too.
its cool how you went to space to teach all this music theory. nobody else has shown that kind of commitment! good luck w the food :)
The last addition made the whole song much more Radiohead, which is always a good thing in my book!
You've done a stellar job with this, man (no pun intended lol).
@peter g I swear it wasn't 😂
I actually use this adjective a lot, probably a bit too much.
Ima need you to finish both those songs...
Thanks Andrew for this video!
last time i was this early my dad was about to leave for the store
Absolutely incredible commitment to the bit. Better than Borat
Very enlightening, Thank You!
a great way to work around that weird e shape with the g# in the bass would be to play the g# in the 11th fret on the a string (ring finger), then bar the d, g and b string with your index finger (9th fret). you can also play the open e string in the bass, with that 10th intervall between the e and the g# thats an amazing sounding chord. you can do a hammer on from the 7th to the 9th fret on th a string as a nice embelishment. its a simple major inversion but i really like it as a different sound for a major chord.
