This is amazing dude, really loving this thank you so much!
I found this thing to help me out personally, thought I may as well post it here as it may help others who havent learnt chords and what not off by heart:
chord house ::: piano room: chords and scales
Again, thankyou so much!
No problem, Mistro!
Glad they helped!

yeah, just finished watching the melody vid at work and i love how you explain things. Any other tutorials coming from you any time soon?
Hey J!
Yeah in a little while. I want to concentrate on making some music for a while and then maybe do some videos on chords if there is demand for them and Phil and Bryan feel like it’d be a good continuation to the series. Like scales and melody, chords are tough and it will take a while to arrange how to teach them in a short, yet informative way.

yeah agreed. Plus if you ask me, I think spacing things out give people the ability to actually digest the information. good work though man!
I agree… Thanks!

Man been learning alot since watching these…one thing i been reading about but for some reason cant find much information about is a Counter Melody can you describe it a bit? i hope it wont take time away
A countermelody is just another melodic idea that happens to contrast your main melody in several ways, usually by range, texture, contour, et cetera… For example, say you have a rather rhythmic melody with a punchy sound as your main idea in the area of C3-C4. A nice counter melody might contrast all of those characteristics, which may lead to a resulting countermelody as one which is lyrical, drawn-out or perhaps long-evolving with a more mellow timbre, and in the high-mid range of C4-C5.
Of course, lots of experimenting with the sounds, notes and ranges will help get you closer and closer to the idea that melody/countermelody is really all about healthy banter. Kind of like ICN and Slender when they start bashing each other!

did u already do videos previous to these ones on using that 4th chord.the 7th i think its called.if not could you do some
very nice :w00t: ty for all you hard work:D
Where is this video ur referring to ? thx
Just stumbled across these videos. Very informative and helpful, although I almost had to slow the video down as you talk so fast!
HAha, luckily, the videos aren’t on a pay-per-view basis! You can watch them over and over and over!

Tru.dat
Very kind putting them up for free. I’ve already recommended them to a few people.
Last question, what did you use for the strings? That’s a great sound!
Thanks! I think it was just one of the strings presets in the “sampler” instrument folder. Not sure which one, but I can certainly check.
Jamie, thanks so much for doing things like this. There are so many people, like myself, who are benefiting tremendously from your work
Glad I could help!
yes Jamie, your videos are very good thanks for putting them up
