This is so encouraging, Leon. No YT hype, just gentle, sincere teaching.

Thank you for your kind words. I always try to be helpful and encouraging in my videos, without being hyper or aggressive.

Something I am struggling with is how to change harmony-colors in song form. An example of what I am trying to do would be having a verse in harmonic minor, going to the relative major in the pre-chorus and then having the chorus in some closely-related frigian mode, then back to the verse. I find it difficult to coordinate this within the song form, to prepare the transition at a moment of the music that feels meaningful, transitioning and then establishing the new key area. Like for example to take the music somewhere else in the second repetition of a chord sequence without it sounding forced or awkward, just surprising. I hope I could explain what I mean! Maybe this is something worth considering for a tutorial of yours anytime in the future.

Thank you for sharing your struggle. There are several famous songwriters who have figured out how to do what you have described in your comment. It seems that what you want to do is modulate within a song, not just from one key to another, but from a key to a mode, and then back to a "regular" key. You want your song to have some harmonic "surprises" but not sound awkward. I'm adding this subject to my list of topics to explore. Thank you!
