Music Foundations Tutorial: Chord Progressions w/ Mark de Clive-Lowe

[@Enlukaa]

true legend, never heard someone put such a comprehensive beat together so quick!

[@skelicles]

So glad people like this exist, keep the info rolling, people are appreciating!

[@carbonealpha]

Mark a tear shed from my eyes when i heard "one day where all the notes work" ... I have been there and now when i play i feel so grateful to all these people/teachers/friends trying to explained and that i didn't understand... Have fun playing, it is one of the best thing we can make :)

[@wax83]

Soo much useful information in thirteen minutes!! Thank you very much sir!

[@mrdelerious2009]

DUBSPOT you are the king!! thank you so much for giving this precious knowledge away for free!

[@kbyer]

The Way he constructed that beat on the fly was incredible.

[@ababc666]

Wow... by far the most important tube for musicians I've stumbled upon!

[@Heyyy_Jude]

Highly useful video. It's making me want to leave work go home and just make some music. Great refresher!! Thanks Dubspot and Mark!!!

[@kimseniorb]

this is very interesting for intermediates like me. not the typical "basic" stuff, and its great! keep them coming

[@avantoneavantone5826]

The last track was incredible!

[@MarkdeCliveLowe]

happy to see so much positive feedback from this little video tutorial - it's always a pleasure to share a little knowledge. check my channel for live show examples of the same ideas - solo live remixing acappellas and with a band in different settings too

[@malmcowy]

Always love this huge bassdrum at the beginning of dubspot vids

[@MetamorphDubstep]

Maaaaaaaan, Mark creates entire multi-layer tracks like it's nothing. So impressive.

[@grooverthebarbarian]

That was awesome! Cheers guys. Big thanks to Mark for doing it to :)

[@evilmurderproduction]

many thanx for this. it cleared up a few issues I was having in the creation of melodies. I was thinking too far into it and trying to make it too complex.

[@ForgottenTribe]

Dubspot you did it yet again!

[@Djstorymusic108]

Great tutorial for learning a little something about chords and scales. Thanks!

[@RockstahRolln]

Fantastic vid! Learned quite a lot!! Many thanks for that!!

[@efsq]

each video they upload I consider it more seriously to go to dubspot courses. and I'm like thousands of km of distance form NY

[@AquaStarDolphin]

@northerndownpour101 It's called the root note. You play the root note of a certain chord in the left hand to add bass to the sound. It's really simple. So fill in the blank, the root note of a C major chord is ___.

[@djkaylakruz]

awesome thanks! i have heard of those, everyone seems to go on and on about them!

[@gbiscuits]

wowww kudos, that last one was awesome

[@danzjay]

Maschine should've named their product the "Clive-Lowe" this dude is unreal

[@xenocore01]

Holy crap this guy is magnificent. Just curious, have there ever been any instructors using a guitar midi input, just curious how they work during composition using their tools.

[@Nijnvenijn]

Very informative!! Thanks a lot for this.

[@djhalo]

LOVED IT! SO JELOUS! I WILL BUT MY OWN UP VERY SOON!

[@TheStMike]

This man is incredible.

[@strugglebuggietv]

great vid, big up dubspot!

[@Leviticus3BP]

@meffle It is not about the Machine it is about the skill you acquire that you can apply no matter what program or machine you use....we all can do this just need the skill...HAPPY PRODUCING

[@Altruwest]

Awesome video!

[@onisphereproductions3083]

Most melodious bass I have ever heard..

[@CarlosDeSantiagoTV]

Wow wow wow I really really want to learn this

[@JakobBrunner]

beast on the keys!

[@jazzplayer9]

is this guy an artist? i love his nu-jazz style

[@SebMusicTV]

Great tutorial! more stuff like this

[@slick1hit]

@jazzplayer9 yea he is,dude is a legend

[@jojoyear]

@theemerica77 Native Instruments Maschine. You can do similar stuff with any other daw though.

[@nihl01]

for those using ableton i recommend Tony's Chords, a session file containing all chords and scales, i use it to send led feedback to my launchpad. just google it, its free. that guy's work is fascinating. it made my composition ridiculously easier.

[@marksclimax]

QUESTION! what's some good practice to get to playing like you? just running your scales back and forth?

[@TomZentra]

Learning piano and music theory helps a lot. They are not necessary to make good music. This video is good intentioned, but it isn't a beginner tutorial. If you feel intimidated by it, just know that the presentation is directed at intermediate level producers. A beginner should start with basic major chords and their progression.

[@Astral_Blitz]

@theemerica77 its a rhodes

[@jaaahws]

My favorite jazzy chords. MCL is a chord/melody god.

[@AlPlatino]

Nice tutorial!

[@4321Rocket]

What synthesizer is he using? It sounds pretty sick and yes I know the sounds ain't coming from it, but I need a synthesizer that I can carry around.

[@MrDigitalTiger]

@theemerica77 It looks like a Novation ReMOTE 49 SL (Mk 1)... which is obsoleted by the Mk2

[@kawaiifreak97]

MDCL one bad dude. that shit is dope. It's one thing to understand the theory but playing like that... the herbie hancock of the beat generation

[@alimantado373]

lol easy there!!

[@kataclypse]

what is that program he is using? i use fl studio and i like what hes using because it looks easy to combine melodies from your midi keyboard

[@romerouno17]

love it!

[@skvan]

@wilkes982 don't worry about it. when you're learning piano, you spend the majority of time developing skills to play it physically. you don't need that anymore. you can learn all this theory in little time and use your computer to play the notes :)

[@dmdesigncreative]

this is good

[@jazzplayer9]

@ssiegert12 drag vst into midi track and make sure record is highlighted in red

[@PgTrAxX]

wow... that random stuff on the Maschine @09:18 sounded awesome one's it came all together.... i'm spending like an hour to create something simple :D

[@djreoofficial]

piano, maybe not... but theory is like the first thing you should know before even thinking about making music. this video was made with the thought in mind that you already know theory, because he only talks about harmony.

[@DJAZAlwayz]

FLY LO!!!!! im so impressed with myself because i thought myself this through beat after beat!!!! spend time with your music it's the only way to get it exactly where u want it!! but don't be a Dr Dre

[@Urstruly916]

Guys check out Harmony For Computer Muscians by Michael Hewitt. It's a must-have for people wanting to improve their knowledge in music theory. It covers in depth what Mark talks about here and more! Also study dynamic , and static harmony. Hope this helps. Cheaper alternative for the low income crowd :D

[@HKSarkdog]

What's the song in the beginning of the video?

[@VJbasti]

Omg, what a man! awesome! :)

[@SergeantSkateboard]

He laid that super complex drum rhythm down in one take in 20 seconds...

[@djKingSoloNY]

This guys Mark is amazing, he got too much soul. Although,It was really hard to follow his examples for me, I still enjoyed. LoL, It was too fast for me. Is he teaching there of he just a guest for this video. I always used to pass in front of dubspot on 14th if it's still there, i might go take a look.

[@BassParty]

Damn this man has skill!

[@oarnoy]

What software is used here?

[@ArmorKingEmir]

is that going to be taught onlevel 2?

[@spel10001]

The DJ Qbert of the keys!

[@theemerica77]

What kind of piano is that? And is he using Komplete 8?

[@mkemelodies]

what keyboard is this!? please!

[@XDjkwestarX]

@jazzplayer9 Im pretty sure all the instructors make music. ummm try Googling his name, it's in the title. But yea I like it too. :) cheers

[@Distortionist]

What daw is he using?

[@BenThatOneGuy]

Native Instruments Maschine. cool thing is that its alot nore than just a drumpad too. look it up. i love mine :)

[@Booost3d]

what keyboard is he using?

[@djice1804]

Waow!!! @ 9:19 -12:04...Just Put Load Your Brain on a Chip Already & Let me use it on my Macbook Pro. Thank You.

[@HolyEagle11]

Acting all casual about being be able to make full beats in two mins flat lol really good information thank you.

[@DrumsSnowSkateSoft]

im a drummer and i could probably do that once i had some time to learn the maschine

[@Shapeplusform]

The New Zealand accent reminds me of home

[@bumbumfx]

8:01 there starts the legacy

[@DidierD_BE]

[@willynebula6193]

Epic

[@SantoshGurung009]

Nice ,

[@TatianaBazan]

omg this men is the boss!! o_O

[@schmokable]

awesome ^^ guy in the front row looks like damian marley !

[@10290gilmore]

Just plug in notes and chords with your mouse on the computer piano strip until you get the melody you want....if you know a little about scales and chords you will get there.....although it does takes longer if you can't play the keyboard.

[@DJTYCOMIX]

@PadsBanger Finish one!

[@ptubeyall]

badass!

[@jelenajr4]

novationmusic(dot)com... youl find it in their products: midi controllers section

[@jimmyrich1]

07:30 reminds me of Errol Garner !! :-D

[@AsherBKNY]

He is using a Novation Mk2 controller

[@alexkid1]

I wish i could play the piano like that.

[@africanmaan]

@gts1067 oh ok that makes sense then

[@deejaymanucho3962]

[@4321Rocket]

Found it. Its Novation Sl mkII

[@Repul5eBay]

[@joshbnet]

Well... not every note goes unless you morph the suporting chorus as well.

[@mrdelerious2009]

[@edjerle]

[@MrSamjackass]
