​@@Beatstockpile127 hey man, i feel like you had good intentions with your comment but I'd argue with the cliche "everyone has to start somewhere" in this case. Personally, years ago I also started out with just figuring out how the piano works, like how chords are constructed and whatsoever from noodling around and memorizing the distances between each notes and what sounds they make. I DO AGREE that this is not the most efficient/effective way of learning, but any learning process is much like a snowball, it has to start rolling in the first place. Sometimes a subtle push in the right direction is all it takes. Good luck to everyone who takes the self-taught route, have fun!

Even quicker way to conceptualize/approach it is to go 3 notes higher than the "+7" note when you went 3 notes above your root (or first) note for the one that follows it, and go 4 notes higher than the "+7" when you went 4 above the root, so you go: (Here, 'st' means semitone, which is the distance between each notes on the piano) Root + 3st + 4st + 3st (+4st)* for the sadder minor '7th chord' OR Root + 4st + 3st + 4st (+3st)* for the happier Major '7th chord' *(add this last bonus note on top of the 4 other notes of the '7th chord' to make it a '9th chord' for a fuller sound!) Dunno if my explanation made it seem unnecessarily complicated, but I swear that if you can memorize these 2 formulaes you'll be golden in no time. Just note this somewhere, either a paper you keep next to your PC/Keyboard, or in Paint (over some sick background image if you want to preserve aesthetics + save as a jpeg and set it as your FL's background (in the 'View' menu)) so you can look it up instantly whenever you forget it, and just practice, practice, practice with it, going: MAJOR(HAPPY) : Root note, then 4 notes up, then 3 notes up, then 4 notes up OR MINOR(SAD) : Root note, then 3 notes up, then 4 notes up, then 3 notes up and I promise that in no time it will become second nature and you will now be able to conjure sick chords on command

I personally been doing 1, 7, 5 lately. Which 5 is just the base note an octave up. I also learned that If you want a moodier chord take your 3rd or 4th note and pitch it up an octave then bring that note down 1 or down to the next available key in the scale. I'm not sure if that's considered a suspended chord or not but I think so

Another way is looking at the black keys. 2 - 3 - 2 - 3 (Which you can also just transpose and play in any scale). Starting at C# - skip one - D# - Skip two - F# - skip one - G# - skip one - A# - skip two - C# This pattern can be played anywhere on the keyboard using the (skip one skip two pattern) and you can play any pentatonic scale by following the same pattern.. if that makes sense TLDR: Transpose the black keys to play anything you want in a matter of 40 seconds.

For anyone seeing this, practice getting really good with simple 3-notes chords, learning major and minor chords for every note. Learn intervals (distance between the notes) and why they're important to make chords. When you get good with 3-note chords, learn the sus chords that are majorly used in trap music and plenty other genres. Then learn major/minor 7th chords and all those above make up about 90% of all music we hear. Most important thing tho if you have the chance is practice with some kind of real keys

Then fix slight delay/reverb/sfx whatever or draw/automate the arpeg’s ratio to make it sound more interesting. I used to do limitless stuff by just fooling around.

I'm so happy I dedicated time a few years ago to intensely learn music theory. Made picking up any instrument a lot easier. Once you've internalized enough you don't have to google as often! I recommend picking up an instrument, learning the alphabet (abcdefg,1234567), key signatures, then flats and sharps. Everything else will fill in through time and curiousity! It's an investment but very fulfilling.

experimenting is never a bad thing though. I know you feel an attachment to all those beats and you want to see them through, but you have learned something new from each and every one of them. Just keep moving, if you get a block, start a new beat cause you're clearly not feeling it. Its okay to move on, and worst case scenario you save the FLP in a "work in progress" folder and it is always there to come back to in the future. Hope this helps a little bit. when it comes to this creative shit never take yourself too seriously.

I can do chords a melody and a simple drum loop but making the b and c parts of the song get harder then actually putting it all together and mastering it so it sounds good in the car, phone and, on headphones. that's where I am struggling. oh and keeping all the downloads and files organized.

@@BIONDIEST i been cooking for 6 years and learned everything about workflow from watching old internet money nick mira tutorials because i was a juice wrld stan and have always been obsessed with beats lol. anyways every beat is different and can be considered complete at any point you consider it done. i make beats in 30 minutes sometimes, another may take 2 hours. some beats you feel some sentiment for others not so much. the best way to get better at mixing and mastering is to simplify it for yourself and to just put in the hours to train your ear to feel the pockets that a certain instrument sounds best at relative to the other sounds( leveling) there are also some general ranges that most instruments sound good at (kick -3db 808 -6db snare -12db to -9db perc and hihats around- 15db) these arent perfect for any beat but they are a start. from there trust your ear and move them slightly where they need to be based on what sounds best to you subjectively! once i figured this out myself it let me focus more on my ideas and melodies flow endlessly because things become much less effort and stressful. stay blessed and sorry for the essay but if any of this was informative then it was worth it to type out haha.

Thank you, Mr. Mira, for this exceptionally insightful and profoundly moving KZbin video. Much like the intricate layers of a perfectly structured chord in music theory, your explanation builds upon itself, weaving complex concepts into something beautifully accessible and resonant. Just as certain chord progressions can evoke deep emotional responses, your thoughtful approach creates an experience that transcends mere instruction-it’s a journey that engages both the intellect and the soul. The way you draw connections between ideas, much like harmonizing notes, allows even the most intricate aspects of music theory to become clear and intuitive. This video isn’t just about understanding chords; it’s about feeling their impact on a deeper level, much like the art you’ve crafted. Your ability to simplify the complex, while inspiring curiosity and wonder, reflects the essence of true teaching. This is more than just a tutorial; it’s a transformative experience, where knowledge blends with emotion, leaving us not only more informed but profoundly moved. For that, and the care you’ve poured into this work, we are deeply grateful. Your contributions resonate far beyond the screen. Kind regards, Loris

that little wiggly riff at 6:00 was making me so happy that when he deleted it i gasped 😂 excellent information, thank you very much. I have a piano and playing it relaxes me, but i only know like 4 songs and never took lessons, so it gets old quick. I really want to be able to sit down at my piano and just improvise alone or along to other music to relax, and this gives me some hope that that goal might be closer than I realize

You can use counting for scales too pick a note then count like this 2 2 1 2 2 2 1 . If you do that you got a major scale and for natural minor scale you do 2 1 2 2 1 2 2.

This was legit the best video I’ve seen on simple music theory. Also, remember your first note/key is always your “root note.” Doesn’t matter where you start the first key is your “root note.” Then follow the pattern. If one note sounds off go up or down until it sounds in tune. Minor=Sad chords, Major=Happy chords. Good luck everyone.

I am still not great with theory, but something that helped me learn scales and keys was just looking up a picture of the keys on piano. Like google E major scale and there's usually a picture with all the keys highlighted in blue.

That’s an important scale to learn, one of the harder major scales. Watching this vid made me realized I know much more about music theory than I realized- I have every major and minor triad as well as 7ths memorized as well as 9 chords for most too
