Jacob Collier showed this yesterday on his Instagram live stream. Highly recommended in addition to this great video. Thank you !
The first time I was told to do something like this made for really cool sound. What we were told to do is take a simple song like Happy Birthday or Twinke-Twinke and on EVERY note of the melody (including repeated notes) drop the bass note a half-step and find a chord to fit. Yes, of course good voicing leading too. Suddenly you have a melody everyone knows, but with some very hip or strange harmony.
Yeah that's a great exercise for getting better at reharms!
You changed my musical life from head to toe
Before that, I wrote music only in triads, but after watching some of your videos, I realized that chords can be expanded, and progressions can be made richer
Thank you very much for doing lessons for everyone who wants to learn jazz harmony, bro
Yes yes and yes! More of this! 🔥
Oh my! Gorgeous!
Nice man! 🎵
Welcome back!
Thanks Derrick, glad to be set up and back to the weekly videos 😃

Thank you PP. I can’t imagine RUclips content creation is easy but your content is always helpful and useful. Neo soul is my current favorite genre to learn. So thank you from me! 🍻
You're welcome!! 🙏
keep being you man , really doing the world some good with your videos couldn’t thank you enough 👍🏻
Thanks dude, I appreciate that! 🙏🙏
Fantastic this chords sound like the music of a jazz group EST tha i love it thanks from México
DOPE!!!! Thanks brother!
My pleasure dude! 🙏
Thanks - what a brilliant video, it’s given me so many ideas, and so succinctly explained and demonstrated.
Thanks Emma! Glad you enjoyed it 🙏
You finally come back!!!
I'm back baby!! (been busy moving to a new studio!)
Sounds awesome Simon! Had great fun messing with this one.
For the first progression, I tried moving the Eb back up to the E so it leads back to the Fm, something like:
Fm11 E7#5#9 Ebmaj7(#11) Em7b5(add 11)
u can do anything the key is using an EP instead of a grand piano.
Sounds good
nice1 dude! room looks good !
Thanks man, I appreciate that! 🙏
For 4:50, how did you figure out what notes to improvise around the top line? Is it based on what chord you're currently on? Did you use some kind of logic on what notes would sound good on the melody besides just playing the G?
Hot damn sounds beautiful
Thanks Derek! 🙏
It would help greatly if you gave us a quick understanding on how you came to those chord variations.
A bowl of blisteringly hot chicken curry with rice and a PP vid....awesome!!
Sounds great, Simon. Something to play around with for hours. My lack of voicings knowledge will mean I'll struggle, but that just means I know instantly where I can improve my knowledge!
Your new space looks fantastic, love the upright!
Hope you are settling in well in Bristol. :)
Hope you enjoyed your curry Col! Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it 🙏🙏
Congratulations on your new place.
Thanks! 🙏🙏
x5 people were about to hit 'like'...but were buzzing so hard off these smooth sounds that they accidentally hit 'dislike'
I feel like taking a swig of bourbon on the rocks after listening to this wonderful tutorial.
Sounds like a plan 😉
Can someone please explain what key signature this is in ? I’m new to music theory and I’m used to using key signatures but this seems like we can use whatever notes we want, how would we compose this ? Or add a key signature to this ? If we want people to sing over this or know the key signature what would it be ? Thanks !
Hi Simon. I have watched a number of videos on reharm methods, even another one on going down chromatically. I also watched one which encourages you to think about how the melody or top note relates to the bass one. I am grateful to you and all you other piano teachers on this platform for sharing your skills and tips. Now after watching THIS one, I finally ‘get it’. The possibilities and permutations are endless. THANK YOU.
*...so is it safe to say you can essentially play any combination of (4/5) notes under the top note of the right hand and it will sound good with the (4) chromatic bass notes?*
I know it's just me, but the top note starts to DRONE and actually hurt when its played like this lol The song that comes to mind where this happens is "Needy" by Ariana Grande. High G gets hit every quarter note and really pulls attention away from the rest of the song with its repetition.
Great for reharm ideas though!
If you do this how would u know the key/scale your in ?
Would it work if the top note moved chromaticly
It wouldn't have quite the same stability, but it could definitely work - you'd just have to be smarter with your voicing choices.
This is weird but great
I actually used the exact same last chord Progression 2 weeks ago for a song haha
sounds like ashley henry
Can I sample this🤧
Go for it! Just tag me if you post anything using it :)
Don’t really know what neo-soul is and what makes this neo-soul. Can you explain?
LOL "easy."
