4 Levels Of Chords - NOOB vs PRO vs HACKER vs EXPERT

[@ashnoel]

Memphy! I recently just subscribed to your channel, as I've been trying to dabble in EDM production--and this video was awesome! I know a little bit of music theory but this was great to see how different changes in chord voicing can change the whole vibe of a song! Thank you :) you are awesome!!!

[@BigGuyPineapple]

I recently just unsubscribed from you sorry

[@SaloRAD_music]

The fact that the “Hacker” level is harder to do than ACTUALLY making chords yourself 💀

[@vvvrover]

and it sounds bad

[@SaloRAD_music]

@@vvvroverIt does lol

[@David34976]

​@@vvvrover it wasn't all that bad

[@Gamer-RSM]

The Noob one is kinda Best I've got 😅

[@antaikhoan7221]

Ikr the noob is like the best sounding version of the 4

[@Nocturnal_Spectre]

No way, the noob one was boring af

[@CharlieCarlos123]

Then are tech house producers like me that doesn’t even use a single chord in a track haha

[@TheCray100]

All you need. People have built entire careers on three chords.

[@Tobbx87]

@@TheCray100 Knowing extension is not because you NEED them. It's just fun to have more options to work with.

[@EpicMediaKids]

tbh regardless of the level, the overall production still makes it sound lit

[@cxxfour]

NO NOT MUSIC THEORY!!! UGH! *proceeds to finish the video*

[@vapor404]

Ugh I know super annoying *subscribe*

[@josiahvalentine3430]

I'd 100% say Pro chords to start with a lead filling in and adding the variation, then using the Expert for round two after the first drop with a second lead or harmony lead in addition to the first! Actually though, even though I know some music theory and been playing instruments and singing for years however, "just add notes where it sounds good" is the best advice for digital production that will be sticking with me lolol

[@Sagenoyt]

Yo, the examples at the end were probably the coolest thing I’ve ever heard 🔥🔥🔥

[@roberttoomey8272]

I am enlightened finally.

[@migats2160]

It depends on the intention how you want to treat your chords. If I make chords to put it really far in the background, they will sound noob. But if the chords are really in front of you, they will sound like pro or expert.

[@thurianvdw1146]

Man how i'd kill to have more full songs from this man. Oceans and Stay we're already awesome. Would love to see what he could cook up nowadays!

[@toycarcrashtv5260]

The pro chords are simply one of the most beautiful chord progressions ever in my opinion

[@BritishBoy]

Epic vid! Some great advice to reinforce what I've learned over the years :D

[@CoreyCash-b3b]

The most uncomplicated tutorial I have ever came across that has the best info for noobs to become experts really good music theory flick

[@DinosoarPerfessional]

When Memphy Uploads, you know its gonna be gud

[@tempeight]

Thank you man, I've been stuck at noob stage despite knowing some of music theory. It's just still quite gray for me on how to implement it, but your video make it easier for me to do so. Thank you

[@N1CKBEATS]

You deserve more subs. These are amazing tutorials!

[@Simplenotname]

I love you so much bro Thank you for all your useful tutorials, I have learned a lot from it and I feel proud to have known and seen your channel grow. I really appreciated your tutorials bro

[@ALEXO_Immaq]

I love how you edit your video about music theory, its funny and keeps me ingaged!!

[@abrahamsaleh7682]

Honestly when u make a drop that sick...it makes it difficult to choose ...they fit in soooo perfect 😅

[@alexneugeofficial]

very informative! good video

[@poumizikshowdy]

Man you are the best. Thanks for sharing your skills

[@aniketthakur5706]

Hey Memphy ! Keep it up bro ✌🏻

[@YesSirYessir-dq8iy]

Bought your course and so far im learning so much 🔥

[@JohnSmith-kn5wt]

Or just use Pilot Chords Epic Plugins and hit the complexity button few times to have it done for you. Then adjust as needed.

[@BARSOOM-SOUNDS]

the conclusion is : JUST USE YOUR EARS .

[@gcjw5839]

no everyone is melodically accustomed. my good friend is a rhythm wizz but cant hear a 3rd from a 4th. me on the other hand my sense of rhythm is borderline non existent but my pitch identification is on point. its all brain at the end of the day

[@josebaez8096]

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA AGREE

[@zenithgames5999]

Agreed

[@jofirez1398]

This is sick man thanks for this tutorial 🙏🙏❤️

[@voxidenjay1023]

The song you tried out for the chords should have a full version cuz you cooked so good in that one!

[@angel_glez7]

Duroooo🔥, tiene sentido, cuantas más notas llenes los acordes más armónicos vas a crear, por lo tanto mejor va a sonar

[@aiyn470]

Glad to see you again

[@walker_97586]

nice video man!! That voicing technique is good bro! 🔥🔥

[@shahidyasini1082]

Seriously, after watching that hacker technique. I was like "what the hell was even that" 😂. After 2 sec that meme man came 😂😂....

[@Alkal1n3Music]

Najs I feel like I’m in between noob and pro cuz I use 7ths and 9ths sometimes, but half the time it’s just a triad + the root note up an octave Video suggestion: how to drum and bass in 3 minutes/420 seconds

[@Ropsu1]

First like, then watch

[@RunoFoxOfficial]

All levels are different in their own way, but for me the favorite is the "EXPERT" difficulty 🔥🔥

[@roberttoomey8272]

This opened a Door for me. tHANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@deansan4250]

Oh my god this video is sooo funny! Thank you for finally convincing me to take an interest in music theory lol

[@maxtilley8357]

2:29 That’s the same piano intro from Sky full of stars, only up a few notes.

[@youngkizzi9944]

Insane ❤❤❤

[@KleeikOnTheBeat]

Hey hey! mmm😢that was fire 🔥 ...nice works Pro...

[@Tobbx87]

Harmony is the most fun part about music IMO.

[@theblindharlot]

Fun fact: I accidentally made an expert level chord progression I guess.... and only once.

[@Xstreme_music]

Thanks memphy this is gonna definitely make my chords improve 😅😅

[@dominatorklg5691]

Cool ❤

[@P4GE_YT]

Yo memphy you good? I haven’t seen you in 11 months. If you’re busy with university or work I understand but we have no idea what’s going on right now.

[@drdregbeats010]

Actually i enjoyed all of them on the track but the expert level one is from another world it sound so complete thanks man

how do you make all the piano cords visible? For example the onle one i see are:C5 C7 etc

[@Memphy]

Click top left corner in piano roll -> View -> Key Labels -> All notes

[@DuardoAnimations]

Nice videoo!!❤

[@Fipsh]

bro deleted the Melodicstep video and the end result was one of the best ones.

[@Memphy]

I haven't deleted any videos, not sure which video you mean?

[@Fipsh]

@@Memphy Well I swear to god you had a Melodicstep version of the "how to make" videos with the end song previewing probably a video of seven lions on stage as you show off the end result like usual. I went through all your videos and didn't find it but you were the first to come to mind.

[@idobahalul]

This is fun to watch

[@BassDoxxed]

Idk if you remember, but would it be possible for me to use the pro melody and chord progression for a song I'm want to make? It's a non-profit song, I will credit you and will not post it anywhere.

[@iSpooky]

Chord progression and melodies aren't affected by any legal stuff, basically you can copy anything you want :) (every big artist is doing the same thing)

[@OchegeDavid]

Please what daw do you use 🥺🥺🙏🙏

Nice one next melody 😢

[@Biohazard-so9sh]

How do you do those automations on the drop 😭 insane.

[@disa40005]

People need to stop using this same set of chords in all the songs

[@rvrb_]

Fr I’m trying to make unique chord progressions (around hacker level lol) and then there’s people at the first level with the same progressions as everyone else getting millions of plays 😭 this industry’s fucked

[@GeezSus]

@@rvrb_ chords aren't the only essential part of the song tho, you need the right sounds/instruments, the right drums, the right bass for it, and some genre don't even require any harmony so they might not even need those basic chords in their songs.

[@imokayhaxball]

hahahahaha-cker LOL!! btw keep it up bro, love it!

[@crescentz3r0]

HOLY SHIIITTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Bram_032]

where do you get you lyric samples from?

[@Memphy]

The vocal is from Splice

[@jenssieckmann]

Hm, there are at least 2 levels above expert, reaching full flavoured 5-part counterpoint harmony with divisi at the top. You just have to listen to classical orchestral filmmusic like John Williams.

[@p_sonic8837]

So I’m actually an expert 😁

[@catvision777]

a real "pro" learns to play an instrument and does not hack notes in a piano roll, lol. But nevertheless, have fun. I like how you made the video, in part. the hacker-part. Very funny.

[@Mich-oh6pd]

So glad I'm not a hacker even in music cheating is not always rewarding.

[@Prodxdjz]

You forgot the root note that can play the same note to give it more emotion and life,but i learnt some stuff from the vid keep it up bro

[@Memphy]

The root note is in every chord already. Maybe you mistake it for the tonic note? I do mention the tonic note in the last level & why I didn't add it. Thx for watching!

[@Prodxdjz]

​@Memphy oh yeah the tonic note,you could change the octave of the note randomly but make it fit in with the chord too so it doesn't get too boring

[@etazor]

The “Hacker” hit hardest 💥
