I teach music theory/composition lessons and make transcriptions!

Weird chords, funky time signatures, and other advanced harmonic concepts can be found in everything, from video games, to film scores, pop songs etc. I make these vids to talk about these concepts and make them accessible and fun.

Let's see some of the more uncommon scales that you will still realistically see in the wild. MUSIC THEORY Part 1: https://youtu.be/iym8mA_gawo 00:00-00:53 INTRO 00:53-04:00 Melodic Minor 04:00-06:56 Major Pentatonic 06:56-08:37 Minor Pentatonic 08:37-11:04 The Blues Scale 11:04-12:09 Materia Editions 12:09-14:19 Whole Tone 14:19-16:24 Half-Whole Diminished 16:24-18:19 Lydian Dominant 18:19-20:05 Mixolydian b6 20:05-21:53 Phrygian Dominant 21:53-24:21 Double Harmonic Major 24:21-25:07 OUTRO Interesting dilemma I ran into when talking about Minecraft/Calamari Inkantation. I realized while writing script that both are technically in the same key (F#maj/D#min or Gbmaj/Ebmin), and it would look much nicer/be easier in the editing stage if I considered both of them to be either 6 flats/6 sharps. HOWEVER I really feel Minecraft in F#maj (6 sharps) while I feel Calamari Inkantation as Ebmin (6 flats). I don’t really have any logic to back this up, it’s just vibes. I ultimately relented and wrote Minecraft with flats, but in case any of you felt weird about the notation when watching that section, this is why lmao.
