“Hold my beer...” I do not recommend listening to the above. This is crap of the crappiest order. Crappy crap.

🤤

Ah, okay, I missed the part about “modulating from C ionian/major to C aeolian/minor. Thank you for clarifying. Part of it is you’re talking right at the cusp of my understanding, so I’m just barely keeping up. Up until just a couple years ago, my world revolved entirely around the harmonic minor scale. Derail away, it’s all music making. Also: noice! My setup should be so tidy and accommodating.

Wait, I’m confused: I thought A natural minor was the relative minor to C major. I think you got them swapped: C natural minor is the relative minor to Eb major.

(squints) I see bacon!

Actually, that makes perfect sense, especially as a learning tool. I love the concept of inversions and voicing, but I’m trying to compose, so unlike improvisation, there’s no time pressure. It still strikes me as a useful way of thinking of things. I would like to know more about these “chainings” (“families”?) , but that’s an area of music theory that I am sorely lacking, and will have to research on my own. Thank you, as always, for the thoughtful response.

I still don’t see any bacon. #amdisappoint

That was the original point of this thread, so I’ll more than allow it, I’ll encourage it. I only just discovered this channel, myself, so feel free to share any others. I found it by way of this video from Paul Davids: My crazy talented vocalist friend, Tash, introduced me to a book written by her choir director, Brinegar. In it (I’m told, haven’t read it yet), that notes can have multiple meanings, depending on context and how you got there. I would assume the same is true for chord voicing. https://www.pitchperfectmusictheory.com/ I would love to hear more of your guitar instructor’s thoughts, especially after being introduced to the above concept. It was that context that made certain portions of the above video so interesting to me. I had only recently discovered the concept of not playing the root in the bass because of a completely different song: ... and am definitely going to let that inform my arrangement of an original I’m working on. Lollers, yeah, I need to review it about 10 times, I think.

Where’s the bacon?

Oh, lollers.

This one?

Apparently he acted through chemo. Now that’s dedication. RIP

Gah. Knucks is no longer live. RIP Knucks’ hearing.

Oh, I’m going to give Charlie such a piece of my mind the next time I almost order something from them.

Nope, trying to step down my opinionatedness of other people’s GAS. I’m also just plain not familiar with it. You can try asking in Muff Wigglers or Dungeon Synth. I have an interest in Waldorf gear, but never got anything by them. (Thomas Dolby used a Waldorf PPG back in the day, and I’ve only heard cool things about them ever since.) WTF? I hadn’t even noticed that. I hate Bit-O-Honey and I always get at least one.

Okay, Brent. 🙄
