How To Write Chord Progressions - Songwriting Basics [Music Theory- Diatonic Chords]

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

This video is a year old now and I've made some important follow up videos for it. Check the description to learn about secondary dominants and borrowed chrods, very practical ways to expand your writing beyond just these seven diatonic chords.

[@chrysallicide8988]

Thank you, extremely helpful

[@murphroberts4891]

@jackson sprouse Sure. It happens frequently when you're writing in a minor key.

[@nadhiagurrola491]

Wonderful.

could you make one of those on "how to write rock chord progressions" ?

[@borderlinedelusion]

Thanks for this amazing video. I watch your videos as much as possible. Now I have to start writing chords and I feel so stupid. How do I make my mixes sound better? Do u have videos on protools? Logic? U have a great way of teaching.

[@dunningdunning4711]

I find it a lot more helpful to look at the theory as descriptive rather than normative, meaning there aren't rules so much as there are descriptions of what generally works; this prevents me from getting trapped in rigid forms of thinking, while still finding the "rules" useful as guides.

I truly wish I could get that through a friend's head. A really good guitarist once told him decades ago that he "just kind of lets it flow..". My friend took that to mean "I don't have to learn anything" Once in a while he's in key, but more often that not he just makes noise. Thinks it's all good. Wonders why nobody wants to play with him.

Your process in teaching and infographics improves with each video. Over time you are becoming a boon to music / song writing by equipping me and others with more and more practical music tools and song analysis with both what is being played, and how it is played with your holistic understanding of production. You are a master of your craft, and I learned so much about chords, I actually learn so much about your videos. It infers you learn a lot too in the process of making these, I hope you continue to progress.

You can change keys for the chorus too. Or the bridge. That works sometimes. The Beatles do that a lot. Then there's learning how to solo over unusual chord progressions and that's fun. Shifting your mode to fit the key changes makes for some really interesting stuff.

[@MrMetalhorse]

I think that the hardest part of songwriting is making a song that is able to be dynamic but just enough to keep casual listeners as well as musicians interested in your music. For example most of us listen to Dream theater for their brilliant songwriting and how dynamic the music is but a lot of people that are not music enthusiasts get overwhelmed by music that has many changes. I personally love when a song has many dimensions and doesn't stick to one riff or rythm.

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

I agree 100%. Variety and contrast is what makes things interesting. I think the best music is the stuff that might seem simple on the outside, but is ridiculously complicated on the inside (stuff like my beatles / beach boys video). I did literally spend years thinking I couldn't make music though, just because I didn't know how to string diatonic chords together. A lot of musicians just wanna write 4 chord music, and thats fine- I just want to make it easier for them to do it!

[@chromaticswing9199]

I personally love it when a song sticks to one riff or rhythm! There are so many subtle differences that add dimension while preserving the central motif. It's also a great exercise in songwriting to limit yourself in that way, forcing other creative muscles to work.

[@RudyAyoub]

dude i agree so much

[@Unknownusername1004]

I dont think I've written a song in years now that hasn't at minimum had non-diatonic notes in it or a complete key change for certain areas. I might challenge myself today to do that though

Hey man, I love the way you explain things and I have learned quite a bit from your channel. Do you think at some point in the future you could make a video outlining chord theory be it how all chords are constructed, how they relate to parent scales, and why they are called what they are? I've been looking for good videos to clear this up for me but I haven't been having much luck. You don't have to, It's just an idea that I'm sure would help out a lot of people :)

[@SignalsMusicStudio]

Thanks for the nice words! I do outline part of that process in the 2nd half of my video on the Lydian scale... I do intend on making a video where I talk about figuring out the chords of ANY scale/mode, but I have so many video ideas, it's a battle for which one gets made first!

[@judgegroovyman]

This is really one of the most important things a person can learn about music- I don't know why no music teachers taught this when I was coming up thru school in the 70's and 80's- they taught us to read music and all the Italian terminology, and I had a couple good piano teachers that taught the scales and basic chord formulas for major, minor, diminished, etc, (but not sus chords for some reason) but I never heard anything about diatonic chords until 4 years ago when I started playing guitar! Learning THAT and the relative major/ minor keys opened my whole musical world up for sure! I always knew there was some secret all these musicians knew to be able to figure out a chord progression for themselves, I just never knew there was a formula!🥰
