    some of theese examples are 4ths. A 4th is technically an inverted 5th, but I still find it helpful to differentiate between the two. When AIC harmonize in 3rds they sound awesome. When they harmonize in 5ths they sound strange and unique. When they harmonize in 4ths they are something else IMO. I LOVE that sound!

    • @TaylorJohnHardin

    Down in a hole does almost every combo in the book between Jerry and Layne lol, one of my favorite songs of all-time.. it's mostly minor and major thirds in the verse though, then 4ths and major 3rds in the chorus

    Do you think Layne and Jerry knew enough music theory to come up with their formula or did it evolve organically?

    • @TaylorJohnHardin
      @TaylorJohnHardin  Рік тому +1

      The best way to know a formula is to use it over and over.. im guessing they knew what 5ths were but who knows!

    • @johnbehan1526
      @johnbehan1526 Рік тому

      But ... Why are they 5ths, not 4ths? Convention? Something more sophisticated? Like, are you referring to them as 5ths because the dominant vocal line is the reference, not the lower, or because of the harmonic context?
      I hate intervals.
