Going in between fighting notes (dissonance) and release of that tension adds to the sound pallet as well. Also, inverting the chord away from the root position can clear up that bass note space when adding a bass line. Dope video and positive info for heads that want to get into this type of creativity.

@Chunda8 Жыл бұрын
Marlow thanks for this. Don't worry too much about theory, your ear is what's important. If it sounds good to you, it IS good. My theory I am testing now is the root of the chord. If the root of the chord is a note within the key you are working in, you can pretty much do what you want above it. (Diatonic) For me, if I have the root and any third above it, I'm confident that my listener's brains will fill in the fifth. Likewise if I play the root and fifth and anything else, they will still hear it as that chord regardless of added or missing notes. Some have told me that root + M7 is also pretty strong for hearing it as that root's triad. I think you have to be very decisive about defining the new key to take the listener with you, once they have heard a key I think you have to really shift it for them to change to the new one. Just a theory, maybe it's just me, maybe I'm overthinking it altogether. I'll just concentrate on sounding good.

You displayed some nice really knowledge of chords dude, playing complex chords and using inversions to move around the keyboard as little as possible is called economy of motion and I love it's sound. On the flip side try spreading out your chords and use wide voicings with really simple chords. Regular old c major in second inversion with the the third played an octave higher is a wonderful thing, add the major seventh with your right pinky and it just sounds like a big warm hug. Love your beats!

"Those two notes fighting each other" = dissonance. :)
@MrMikkiFunk3 жыл бұрын
Dissonance is more notes that don't work with each other harmonically, they literally clash because they're not meant to be played together/ don't belong to the same or relative scale. With stuff like 2nd inversions of 7th chords the two in the middle (root and 7th intervals) just sound funny together as they're not usually played right next to each other, you end up with what would be called a close note voicing, as those two notes are usually at opposite 'ends' of the chord (if you use the standard voicing). Once the other two intervals are neighbouring them it balances out the chord.
@BeauTylerMakesMusic3 жыл бұрын
@@MrMikkiFunk while I get what you’re saying and respect it, there are some misunderstandings on your end. Dissonance is not something that occurs only when a clashing note occurs that is out of key. Dissonance can occur in key as well. A better way to look at dissonance or consonance is by seeing them as stable or unstable notes. For instance in a seventh chord using root voicing the 7th isn’t as dissonant as an inversion where the 7th falls directly below the root, as you mentioned above. In advanced jazz theory (I hesitate to say music theory because there are so many different “music theories”) dissonance is used harmonically quite frequently, such as with complex chord clusters. Especially those that involve 9ths and beyond or with notes such as sharp 11ths (and even moreso when re-voiced out of standard position and into the middle of a chord cluster).
