That E chord could be seen as a edim chord. Which over Eb becomes Eb713b9#11 to Ab major (4) Then 3625 back home.

[@philippevillette5565]

It's a Barry Harris substitution. A borrowing of Edim notes in a Ab major chord

[@thepaellaman]

I thought the same thing. Diminished chord over Ab, with the c on top as the melody. Now as for that whole tone chord…

[@henkdevries2002]

makes sense, but that A in there would'nt be in the Barry Harris sixth diminished scale right? but its like a double diminished note in there (from Ddim scale), so the way I look at it you can borrow diminshed notes but you can also borrow double diminished notes for crazy dissonance (notes from F#dim7).

[@henkdevries2002]

@@thepaellaman Yeah crazy chord, looks like Ab lydian dominant, but the way he voices it makes me think of it more like a Bb7 whole tone dominant over Ab. Like a dom7 #5 with a natural 9.

I want to learn more from you too

Hey man I do lessons if you ever need them! AlfredJrMusic.com

Why I’m just now finding this 🤔 new sub!!!

[@thevillagemetronome5640]

I reckon the weird chord is Eb7b9/Ab Like secondary dominant to the IV Or Eb half whole dim over Ab

[@AlfredJrMusic]

Yeah that’s another good take on it

[@wgchris4]

No, functionally speaking, it is Absus, followed by A7alt, the tritone substitution for D7, the dominant of the next chord, G-. So I don't agree with Alfred at all. He is not simply harmonizing the melody, but everything that happens here is strictly functional. @@AlfredJrMusic

[@mochathecreative]

Thats probably what Cory was thinking in that exact instance! @@wgchris4

Amazing job

[@AlfredJrMusic]

Thanks!

[@japamusic09]

I enjoy your content very much..the first chord on the 4 where you said there's no name for it is actually an A flat minor 11 with a sharp 5 and flat 2 ..I would to have your help on abelton live 10

[@yd8310]

Nice!! thanks 🖤

[@wallomaie1752]

How about an E diminished chord over Ab. The whole chord comes from the E whole-half diminished scale, except the Ab which is your bass note.
