Dude I’m such a sucker for #11 chords. They just never fails to evoke a moody mysterious, introspective feeling that I find so powerful. Anything with that 7/11 shape in the right hand just hits different.

[@JimManeri]

On jazz jam sessions, ending the song with a ♯11 gets you a penalty flag for clichés :)

[@MisterRorschach90]

Major 7th and 9th chords are what do it for me. Though probably because the first weird chord I ever learned was a 9th chord from that one John Mayer song.

[@tazmontmusic]

Them slurpee chords be nice

[@RAndrewNeal]

@@JimManeri Your use of the correct sharp symbol hasn't gone unnoticed.

[@arko9151]

Real

[@RickyTinez]

This is insane.. I have no words to say to give my thanks other than thanks.. holy crap

[@iantanner7579]

Superb - Probably one of the most well executed music theory videos, - or music lessons, - I've ever witnessed, and I'm almost 60. Honestly, extremely inspiring stuff, - much appreciated, keep them coming,.. please love to ALL, feel no hate

[@omikhlephonon]

Speak no evil

[@Brucee.96]

i wanna sit down with this person and have a beer, they seem so open-minded and respectful. Thank you!

[@noosfera_It]

agreed

[@diegomontoya4983]

“This is the power that bass and bass players wield” had me 💀💀💀. Thanks so much brother.

[@Byrop]

The ‘sitcom’, neighbor opens door and “this is the power…”. Perfect. Subscribed. The split screen made by ADD brain lock in. As a guitarist, non-reader (gasp) who lives with odd tunings I heard AND learned what I lean towards melodically. Your even , intentional delivery is great. Only suggestion‽. Make more videos. Thanks for some rare, quality work.

[@EdokLock]

The quality of the video alone deserves a subscription

[@wm2922]

Great video. I'm a newbie in the music theory world so I can't really grasp 80 percent of what's going on, but the slow pace, the focus and the cool vibe of the whole thing is super inductive to learning ❤ Thanks a lot mate for making those vids!

[@azrorz1775]

Seconded!

[@christopherandhobbes9846]

This video is way more impressive than it needs to be. You went crazy on the editing and scene introductions

[@gayleedmondson3204]

You’re really spilling the tea, super encouraging that you came as a recommendation on my feed. I don’t have a KZbin channel but I’m a full-time teacher. The fact that people can access this continent for free is insane

[@elMatip]

you're amazing, I'm sh*t at music theory, but you manage to explain this in a way that even I can understand, thank u

[@StxgeylilkoiCats]

Commenting so I can watch this later in the studio

[@jamiebrownmaxwell]

love the whole tone of this video.. intriguing, informative, calming & a little subtle humour.. masterful stuff

[@pabloleivaandres]

now i know why shook ones sounds so good

[@Prodbyedilla]

Thank you for all that you do. You are very appreciated and I hope you see this. Stay well

[@lefxxwill7740]

I feel like the Lydian mode is what I have been looking for my entire life 😍

[@KevinSimpson031]

Thank you for this, this has to be one of my favourite tutorials I've seen on the Tube

[@Bashanvibe]

I appreciate the fact you calling out the full name of the chord!!! this is a vibe!!! you in my style!!!

[@1009noni]

Make more chords videos! It’s really helpful I really struggle with making those types of harmonies. Could you maybe make a video focusing on song structure and different ways to make it more dynamic by changing progression or other aspects

[@JamesRone]

Jason Schwartzman's body double is a person of many talents.

[@andrewtelles6586]

dude the editing is off the charts!

[@busizweduba6348]

the tone of your piano

[@joshie_allon]

very underrated content, exactly what people need

[@soultabs]

I will listen to some of you vids over and over. This is the music i listen to and finally someone explains it well. Mad props

[@yogicbeats]

yes, yes UGHHHH YAAAAAHHH

[@rameethhavenkatesh9531]

Love the bass line

[@MikeManaMusic]

Man your videos are so high quality, informative and easy to understand

[@calebeverling6142]

Bro please don’t stop making tutorials you explain good

[@EmptyKingdoms]

This sounds so much like Gran Turismo's golden era menu music. And this is a huge compliment, it was one of the most elegant soundtracks available out there.

[@irishmossdubwise]

Amazing Bob James vibe

[@ADPuckey]

Fantastic video, super informative yet super accessible, but also I just love your visual gags and the way you deliver your lines lol. Just great stuff

[@mattdiu93]

Music theory that came into life, love it 🥰

[@currentlyrebranding]

haven’t even finished the video, i am subscribed and i have notifications on, bro SOLID stuff. This is exactly what i need.

[@FlowScholars]

I really love this series and hope that you continue it. I think this is an understudied or at least undercommunicated aspect of music theory and I think mastering it would really unlock the range of musical expression I currently compose with. I love the way you break down your decision making and explain why you made choices the way you did. It helps teach patterns of thought rather than formulas. Ultimately as musicians we need to learn our own judgement and watching others illuminate their thought processes teaches us how to refine our own judgement. I do have a specific question that could perhaps inspire the next video for this series: How did you decide to start with Bbmin11 and Amaj7#11? A naive listing of every chord tone here would be: Bb, Db, F + Ab, C, Eb; A, C#, E, G# + D# If we erase the upper extensions (since there is largely infinite freedom for how we want to color the top ends of chords), we are left with a Bbmin and Amaj palette to start with: Bb, Db, F, A, C# (Same pitch Db but replacing a different scale degree), E. When I look at this I don't see an obvious tonal center guided by a diatonic interpretation (I believe this is the whole point!). Indeed the clash in interpretation of the C# in the A chord and the interpretation of the Db in the Bbmin chord practically demand that there is no sensible diatonic interpretation here. So if there is no diatonic way to understand these chords together, I'm wondering if there is another framework for choosing two chords that "work" together (for some alternative definition of work). Or is it that you can almost always make *any* two chords work as long as they share enough common tones to glue them together? I've often heard in jazz contexts that you can really make any chords work together by massaging them properly, and I feel like maybe the secret to the massaging was revealed in this video with the common tone gluing, and moving the clashing tones out of the way. Would love for you to explore some of the structure for why these chords work well together, and maybe do a video of "pushing it too far" where we can see you test the limits of nondiatonic chord combos. Absolutely stellar channel, I feel like no other content on the web I've ever seen has taken such complex subjects of music theory and presented them in a way that makes it accessible. Thank you.

[@SolDavey]

amazing. the snoring throughout the video had me on edge tho..

[@brekreney5734]

thanks man! This is one the best theory videos ive watched

[@fredirie]

i really appreciate these videos bro

[@r1cht3a]

You way of explaining the theory here is so so so good. Thank you! The penny is starting to drop for me on modes thanks to your videos :)

[@ramiromaciel6045]

Thanks a lot for this. Great explanation!

[@iworkmusic]

I stumbled across this video, and now I’m a subscriber… thank you for clarifying scales and scale modes for me…. I’m about to binge your channel and practice. Thank you again 🙏🏾 I truly appreciate your content

You're good at explaining this stuff

[@alexanderalfonsokrook2471]

1st of all i loved the video, thank you so much. After that said, am I the only one who cant stop thinking about how Jaron looks and speaks as the radio broadcaster from northern exposure?

[@nthnlism]

[@bloodcell6282]

Jaron Lopez is #1

Loved the video. Detailed and clear. Enjoyed the video as well. Please make more. Have subscribed

[@johncitizen8828]

Yeah, it must have taken ages to do all those angles - I noticed too!

[@MyPoopool]

I’m so happy I found your channel, but so sad I didn’t find it sooner Thank you

[@MyPoopool]

Man you just putted so much word on thing I was doing with just the feeling and the love of creating ambiguous things, this is a 10/10

[@michaelo4776]

[@jsonslim]

Hi Jaron, it's a new level of your videos, so cool!

[@DiegoRRL]

First time I see one of your videos. Hands down. Subscribed.

[@ti3mpo618]

All of it, amazing!

[@desoconnor7445]

[@darkpiotr]

Just started to folloW you! I really enjoy your work! thank you for this channel

[@matthewdotson2186]

Great lesson! Amazing visuals and explanations. Your charts and animations were so perfectly executed. Thank you!

Fantastic content, thank you!

[@jaronlopez]

Thanks Techno Shamanism!

[@LarkTwain]

I love your videos. Thank you man.

[@kiitzuna]

incredible video !! i dont really understand a whole lot of theory and while i do implement it within my tracks im not using it to its full potential. this was really well thought out and easy to understand, great stuff

[@saoconrado]

I need more like kamaal williams! Thx for the great video

[@Veridi]

Very based choice of chords

[@Lung911]

The production quality of this video is astonishing 🤍

[@al201103]

Um....insta-sub. Just the right level for me. This was amazing.

[@nembutsu1045]

I'm not really good at music theory, so when you said B flat minor 11 I tried making that chord from just the name. managed to that. then saw how you inverted the chord and moved the root note an octave down to function as a bass note. seeing how easy it was to use this technique to create other chords I wrote a little progression and started a short looped beat. crazy how one single chord can inspire so much

[@awhaleandadeer8785]

1:36 That sounds really cool!! and great Explanation! 1:28

[@arthurseya9195]

The articulation in your videos are a Wow! 💕... Credits 👏👍💚

[@bipedal_earth_roamer]

The bass tone is chefs kiss. I see it’s fretless. Are you doing any other processing on it? What model is that?

[@noosfera_It]

man thank you for that

[@rossbaeker5284]

Thanks for the videos, bro. You’ve quickly become one of the most informative channels I’ve found. Great stuff.

[@IHAVE1ARM]

Astonishing video -- the substance is super useful and well explained, and the form is extremely cool. Congratulations and thank you for sharing!

[@freebeerecords]

Great vid, many thanks. Good blend of what you might play, and why.

[@personalbranddeveloper]

Daam, man. That good

[@playpm]

Again, really like your explanation of all of these theories, it's kind of like a mind fk, just amazing.

[@Pslam23JesusIsLord]

God bless you brother! Thank you for sharing your wisdom! Beloved, Jesus loves you all

[@nomusicgenres]

dude you are amazing, loved it!!! thank you so much for this video !!!!!!!!

[@AlexandreMarhadour]

Really nice work, I’ve been looking for this kind of explanation since a long time, the way you managed to put it out is very on point congratulation !!

[@StuartwasDrinkell]

Brilliant and cool presentation... I feel this is applied in Soft Machine 7 Carol Ann... or at least the vibe is very similar.

[@Eazytodestiny]
