[@thembelihledunjana]

Cool idea💯📍

[@RogerSimon]

Thanks

[@TrippedVinyl-xg4nk]

your most impressive instrument in the room imo is your voice. your articulation of your methods explained with the calming smoothness of your voice has me entertained and learning at the same time. new subscriber looking forward to more of these.👏👏👏

[@RogerSimon]

Wow, I appreciate it. Thanks for being a part of this. We're just getting started

[@prodbyjoeysilver]

I found your page on Instagram and came to KZbin to check you out. I could listen to you play all day man. So beautiful

[@RogerSimon]

@@prodbyjoeysilver I appreciate it, man. That means a lot

[@christianlyrics20]

Your content is gold, I love the vibe, the energy it's everything I like to do when I play music. I'm glad I came across your content. The tips are useful and allow me to reach the sounds I love so much like Robert Glasper, Elijah Fox ...

[@RogerSimon]

Wow, I appreciate it! I'm glad you're here

[@udokasino]

I connect more with your music techniques than I do with other professionals. I dunno why? Maybe it’s the zen posture you methods take or a combination of other things … but please don’t stop churning out these amazing videos 👍🏽

[@RogerSimon]

I appreciate it. Thanks for watching

[@psykyfcn6872]

Thanks you ! It would be nice if we could see the hand placement in future videos. I never really know how to place my fingers (left hand) correctly to strike another chord Thanks again !

[@RogerSimon]

Thanks for watching! As far as hand placement, I'm a fan of just doing what feels right rather than trying to play something the "correct" way. If nothing feels right, keep practicing. Eventually, something will.

[@ProdMasu]

Would love a full vid on adding the extra stuff! Great watch tho.

[@RogerSimon]

I appreciate it.

[@nameless4136]

Now thinking about it, I had done something like this recently. I only started with the two chords and adding notes to sort of transition, but I'm getting the hang of it! This was a good watch, I'll get around to the other parts of the exercise eventually.

[@RogerSimon]

It's powerful. Thanks for watching

[@aidangittings]

you should def have more subs and views bro. always high quality content

[@RogerSimon]

I appreciate it!

I never warmed up to piano even though I loved the kind of harmonies it tends to produce. Been a Guitar Player before and now I got the Ableton Push to play around with. It has a 64x64 Matrix thats stacked chromatically to the right and vertically in fourths. This allowed me for the first time to unlock harmony. I see the lid up pads of the Push in front of me that help me memorize keys and transition opportunities like common chords. Thusly armed I take great pleasure in following along your little inspirations. I love your calm vibe and the music's beautiful - watching your videos is just such a smooth experience. Thanks for doing something awesome like this

[@RogerSimon]

Wow, that's awesome. I appreciate it. Thanks for watching.

[@joshuaburns4892]

[@Rel_YoungLion]

Dope video bro. What’s the passing chord @ 8:14?

[@gabkiu]

love this

[@RogerSimon]

thank you

[@chelico11]

Hi Roger! Could you tell me the program that you use for the piano? Is very useful to see the chords when you play the piano

[@RogerSimon]

Yeah! It's an app I built called Apollo. You can check it out here: go.therogersimon.com

[@chelico11]

@@RogerSimon Thank you! The last question (please), is it subscription that I have to pay monthly or is only 1 pay and I can use without limits? (sorry my english is not the best, hablo español)

[@RogerSimon]

It's just a one-time payment.

[@D-One]

In the 2nd part aound 2:15 are you using the sustain pedal for each chord?

[@RogerSimon]

Yes

[@yktfv3407]

Your tutorials really have helped me just let go and embrace the music. Just tried this exercise and was much more pleased with what i was able to come up with than what i’ve tried on my own. Your talent is a gift fr brother🫡

[@RogerSimon]

That's awesome to hear, man! Thanks for rocking with me.
