Every IV-V-iii-vi Variation 王道進行全派生

[@YetAnotherCoverChannel]

This almost-3-year-old shitty channel suddenly reached 1k subs, 200 of which subscribed within this week. Crazy stuff…

[@GustavoSantos-tw1sw]

Keep up bro

[@dflatminor]

I have been trying to get out of the diatonic chords in my improvisation for years- i mean i have watched other music theory videos and I understand them on an intellectual level but none of them are as straight forward as this. This is the only video that got me moving and start practicing. So thank you profusely, and hope you can do this for other progressions as well (but no pressure! this is helpful enough!)

[@Jivvi]

This just got recommended to me on my main account, but my other account is just for music stuff, so you got two more subs from me.

[@tym7267]

seems you've been blessed by the algorithm

[@moonootoo]

It's not surprising, its amazing! thanks youtube algorithm

[@amynaalam8553]

god i love V/vi -vi -ii -V I it just HITS like watching anime at 360p on youtube in 6 parts in 2005

[@SlyHikari03]

Haha. Fr

[@HenrikRudi]

I'm not sure how the algorithm blessed me with this video, but this is amazing. As a songwriter, thank you!

[@YetAnotherCoverChannel]

I’m glad it helped!

[@lordtraxroy]

IV-V-iii-vi is a chord progression that feels like you feel in love with some one and wanna stay with the person forever as well you will never give up and has also alot of tension which make it really perfect for the style of anime

[@toilapapa5741]

I see what you did there

[@ergastolo4281]

This chord progression speaks to the heart

[@panasonic_youth]

1:09 - 1:20 is absolutely beautiful. Wow.

[@randommodnar1669]

So basically: - Vary the chord qualities - Chord inversions to get linear motion - Use different ways to build tension (secondary dominants, half step motion, etc.) Very cool!

[@toptentechtipsthingsricegu8822]

half step motion is most often a tritone sub btw, if you didn't know this yet! :)

[@pizza2262]

no, that is not true. a tritone sub is clearly defined as a dominant 7th chord with its root a tritone away from an existing dominant 7th chord, and half step motion is a general term that could be analyzed in melody and harmony

[@toptentechtipsthingsricegu8822]

@@pizza2262 no man tritone sub is when you replace a dominant with a dominant chord a tritone up/down. so in a ii V I that V would essentially be between the ii and the I if you transpose it by a tritone, same works with secondary dominants obviously (if you also don't know what that is please look it up so you can understand this video). yes half step motion is a general term but in this context most half step motions are in fact tritone subs. this knowledge is instrumental to actually understanding what's going in this video. if you're going by just the fact that it's half step motions there's no use for you in this video except if your goal is to blatantly copy the chords.

[@ankokunokayoubi]

the very last one is more like a minor 2-5-1 into E minor chord

[@sanikku5]

Half step motion here is mostly generated, if it isn't already done with inversions: - A half step down with tritone substitutions of (secondary) dominants. (Notated as subV/"..." in the video) - A half step up with leading-tone diminished sevenths. (Notated as vii⁰7/"..." in the video) - Passing chords, perhaps borrowed from parallel minor or other parallel modes.

[@nyanyanyanya9553]

Ok but my most favorite chord progression and its variations all in one video?? This is so good and I love every single variation

[@남자친구-z6v]

ITS MY FAVOURITE AS WELL OMG

[@falilvthings2008]

All time favorite chord progressions. Jesus Christ, its so good.

take me back and a qui de droit by lucy bedroque use this progression. i understand now why those songs r so beautiful

[@patw]

PLEASE put a bassline under this and make a 10 hour version!

[@rebugall1727]

Please make more of these, this video was incredible and id really love to see more insight on japanese music harmony and such. Please continue this as a series. Only yhing id like to add would be an indicator to see which chord is being played at the moment because sometime its hard to keep up, specially when youre not that familiar with the piano timbre.

[@stackunderflow6167]

yes, i really like this kind of video!

[@dyllanusher1379]

That bII major 7 sub for the V7 sounded awesome

[@NuclearFantasies]

Can I extend a heartfelt thank you for making this video? My band is using this to help us with writing royal road progression songs. It's helped enormously and I can't thank you enough for putting into the effort to record all these variations.

[@haivophanphuoc2697]

I'm so surprise that with a simple progression, some adjustments can make such a beautiful sound! Thanks for showing me this beautiful piece of music.

[@seeflatbesharp]

Bless the algorithm, this was wonderful. I will be playing this progression more often.

[@maldivirdragonwitch]

Well, I certainly didn't expect this absolute gem to fall into my lap after seeing your LaBrie video, but THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! This will come in handy so much, you have no idea. ❤

[@olioliolivetree]

This is so helpful! This is my favorite chord progression and I will definitely be using this video a lot

[@fourfifteentwenty]

3:14 i got really strong Studio Ghibli vibes from that progression

[@offsetsface2135]

It reminded me of chase by batta for some reason

[@terryriley6410]

I think this one is a really uniquely concise reference material and you should create similar ones about different progressions and their variations. Some technical suggestions about the visuals: It would be a great if the arrow or some sort of selection box would follow the chord being played inside the progression to further help the viewer understand what's happening. The currently played progression could be more zoomed in to be more readable on smaller devices. Chapter markers on the video for each variation would be useful. That being said it is already a cool video and if there is a next one without any of the above suggestions implemented it would be still great. Thanks!

[@MatthewEverettGates]

Very nice exposition. Thorough. Smooth voicing, too. Thanks!! I could have fun playing around with this for a long time. Well done.

[@boxhitbox1455]

I’ve been trying to find something like this for so long. I am so glad youtube recommended me this video so I can finally explain this to other people!!!

[@FormlessDuck]

Using the V/vi instead of the iii gets me every time. Its like you're taking the iii and making it the dominant of a new key as though you're going to modulate, then pulling the rug out and hitting us with what could've been an ordinary deceptive cadence otherwise.

[@petey5009]

This is the exact video I've been looking for for so long, thank you

[@tsurugi5]

holy shit...my ears have been blessed. Thank you for this awesome video! Edit: my personal favorite has gotta be 2:34 and 2:42

[@SlyHikari03]

Same, I love that last one.

[@azjude249]

We want more like this!!! 🥺🙏🏻

[@sprenzy7936]

i heard this alot it goes like IV V iii vi ii V I IV V iii vi vii I

very used chord progression in our church! really helps me a lot!! thank you so muchhh

[@funzionedispari4325]

Listening to this is just pure pleasure. I'm blessed

[@NuSpirit_]

So that's why so many Japanese OSTs sound similar. Many early game songs (like town ones) sound eerily like this. Now I cannot unhear it :D

[@tfossgh]

The last green one. Feels so much like an old anime jrpg game in the beggining, where you just got your mecha mount

[@moredeneiro]

OMD...I'm speechless! So talented!

[@stephen7971]

Awesome video, really helpful! It sort of reminds me of the background music in Ragnarok Online, lol. I really like the Db major at 1:14, I think that was my favorite line.

[@BenjaminPonsDelrey]

this video is awesome, thanks a lot for sharing it, it clarify a lot of things on those beautiful chords progression

[@josef6904]

Awesome concept. You should to more like this!

[@york_zacharias1996]

Going from the IV-V-III-vi-ii to the vii(minor, instead of halfdim)-III7-vi-I/V is also cool and common

[@世界線-y7q]

2:28 エッッッッモw

[@evaunit2005]

Please do more videos like this. I absolutely love this

[@nopalkun]

this is just awesome idea, for me who still struggling on studying the music theory, and as a huge fan of japanese music, i love this so much. thanks for making me back to the mood :") sorry my english bad :'

[@zummyizhere]

Makes me so nostalgic!

[@SAKVIII]

Thank you, this helped me so much. It gave me a broader understanding of secondary dominants and so forth.

[@ericruffy2124]

God it's a silent summary for all 4536 expression progression, useful for basic songwriters. This video AND THIS TABLE should be shared, wide. Thx again.

[@Kyubiwan]

Remember Kawaikute Gomen by Honeyworks? GM7 - A7 - | F#m7 - Bm7 - | Em7/G - A7 - | D - - - | GM7 - A7 - | F#7/A#¹ - Bm7 - | Em7/G - A7 - | D - - - || ¹ secondary dominant of vi chord

[@fernandojimenez5206]

I wonder if japaneses actually get tired of listening the pregression, like we in the americas and europe got tired of the I-V-vi-IV one and now when someone plays it everyone is like "duh, that progression again"😅I imagine this one is more like anime and background music raher than actual pop, rock, Hip hop, etc.

[@IcyAlmondE]

Extremely useful material. Thanks for sharing!

[@shuckyducky5212]

thanks so much! was really struggling to find the chord that I was hearing in my head that could be a good sub for vi and it turns out it was viidim7 I was hearing in my brain. Thanks!

[@SlyHikari03]

Never gets old. Ol' Reliable. 2:29 kinda reminds me of 2.75 by Laura Shigihara.

[@justarandomguy3275]

Half of it sounds like jazz fusion and the other half sounds like a typical anime score. And I love all of it

My favorite all time chord progression, it still makes me confused on why Western pop/rock music is ditching on this awesome Asian chord progression and still sticks on the usual boring old I-V-vi-IV progression. By the way, this demonstration really works as a backing track for all kinds of instruments!

[@kang018]

because they arent musicians, they dont bother to learn theory and just see it for the money

[@gavinsuttle6362]

This is great for guitar improv tysm!

[@bluorenji]

is there any explanation or theory behind the Db∆ - G7 one?

[@YetAnotherCoverChannel]

This is called modal interchange or borrowed chord, i.e., borrowing a chord from a parallel mode (parallel means with the same root, e.g., C Dorian and C Lydian). In this case, the chord progression is in C Major (Ionian), and DbΔ is borrowed from C Phrygian.

[@bluorenji]

​@@YetAnotherCoverChannelthank you!

[@WhitePaintbrush]

In addition to what the video creator has already said, Dbmaj7 is just Fm with Db in the bass. In other words, it's basically an extra colorful minor iv! Everybody loves the minor iv. Absolutely any variation of a chromatic line going 6 - b6 - 5 sounds beautiful.
