He got me cracking up!! Its like the tik tok where the guy is like “where do we put the semi circle, thats right sqaure hole” but hes like “how are ganna make it more emotional, thats right were gonna take the 3 note and raise it an octave.”

[@TheDeadKingsRaven]

Noticing a trend. Take four notes from any scale but not the 2nd or 3rd. Choose a random order with the tonic at the end, make it a chord in the scale. Move the third up. Add a pedal tone of the tonic or thirds depending on vibe of chosen progression. I'm actually amazed at how versatile the 6th and seventh are in pop and edm music. Amazing video.

[@calciferblack2409]

It was confusing for me at first to see so many 7 chords being used until I realised that they were 7 chords in relation to minor keys. Chords built on the 7th degree of the major scale are typically diminished chords and are much less likely to show up in pop and edm.

[@EternityUnknown]

I'm not entirely sure I'll be composing EDM, but I have fallen in love with what you do with third notes! I've heard this chord-voicing in songs a billion times but couldn't decipher how they did that until watching this video. Thanks! Have a like!

[@AutPen38]

As I understand it, spread triads - with one of the notes (not necessarily the actual third, because you can raise the middle note of any inversion, like 351 becomes 315) raised up an octave - was popularised by film soundtrack composers when they first used DAWs. In the early days of sequencers, programmers were advised to write patterns that "a real pianist would play". You'd keep the three or four notes of a chord all within the reach of the fingers of one hand. But the cinematic sound of spread triads eventually crossed over to EDM and pop, as modern producers aren't making "humanly possible" piano music. The technology (piano rolls in DAWs) encouraged experimentation and whole new chord voicings. For younger audiences (people born after 1995, say) spread voicings sound "normal", but for older people who grew up on music played by hand (on guitars, pianos and early synths), these sort of voicings are part of the reason why modern pop and EDM tunes sound weird or bad. When an average person says "I don't like modern music", it's often because it's literally written differently to older stuff, with the same basic chords, but unfamiliar voicings.

Hey Alex, hust a tip. In Ableton you can select a note en press: Shift+Arrow Up. This command does the octave up thing.(or octave down) So you don't have to drag them up. Just a little hack that is so nice once you know about it. Idk if it works in others DAWs.

[@hyttan2525]

He knows, but he wants you to see when and how he drags the notes

[@AutPen38]

Confusingly, in FLS, I think it's CTRL+up for an octave jump. SHIFT+up only moves up a semitone. I think Alex is using Logic now and that presumably uses a similar shortcut. Weirdo Apple users probably use the OPTION key or something, like the committed mentalists they are.

[@whatabouttheearth]

I wouldn't define 'minor more serious' 'major more uplifting', as music theory. Nor would I define pedal tones or simple pads as revelatory. This problem with copy and paste music isn't that anyone can do it, the problem is that people start thinking they're musicians when they don't even know how to play an instrument.

Not sure why some of your chord progressions, all in key, have both sharps and flats? 1) should be Bbm/Cb/Db/Ebm. 4) should be Gm/F/Cm/Eb 7) should be Gm/Eb/Cm (which has an Eb in it too). The scale for 4) and 7) is the Gm scale: G A Bb C D Eb F G (also the Bb major scale.

It doesn't matter what key you use, the emotion comes from the relative change in intervals between chords.

[@badbeardbill9956]

Yes, but key (and even more so register) does affect the perception as well. Timbre matters quite a bit too. All of these things play with each other in different ways. A piano is not tuned to perfect equal temperament across its entire range, so both register and key matter quite a bit.

[@Ndo01]

@@badbeardbill9956 I think they matter a little bit. Keys only matter by virtue of it changing register so sure register matters, but the nuance of the range of emotions that a register change influences is massively limited relative to a scale or modal change. Put two of the same progressions a semitone apart and they will pretty much convey the same emotion.

[@yungawkward303]

@@Ndo01 completely agree, you mention emotion expressed relative to the scale or modal change, besides these, how would one go about learning to express emotion?
