    Understanding dissonance, consonance, tension and release is the secret ingredient to powerful music in my opinion

    This is such an elegant and lucid explanation of the idea. Thank you for making these concepts so accessible… even to songwriters like me with no formal training. What a gift you have!

    Love, love, love how you explain this with open strings ringing over guitar chords! This has been a fascination of mine for decades and is the essence of my compositional approach on guitar. It almost turns the guitar into a symphonic voice. Thank you!

    Many thanks for this. Perfect “level” for me, as home musician/producer(synth, electronic etc) 🙏

    One great example is the song Native Blood by silent planet. It's absolutely littered with disonance and polythythms until the guitar solo, and when that consonance and quarternote china cymbal finally hits it's like a euphoric rush

    Wow, it's so simple yet so inspiring... thanks!

    That last example was terrific! The stylistic difference between plain block chords and the inverted chords with held notes was a lot more dramatic that I would have guessed.
    In the Steely Dan classic, "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" they play a dominant 7#9 chord (a.k.a. "The Hendrix Chord") immediately before the chorus. Played as a block chord, it's a tiny blast of dissonance. But they play it as an arpeggio to help evaporate the dissonance, and it becomes just an odd phrase.

    So good!! It will be a new staple in my songs 👏

    ‘Evaporating dissonance’ is a nice term. It reflects the direct experience of hearing it. This exercise cracks a door onto all kinds of related moves that play with changes of identity or changes of context, or both at the same time - rich resources for story-telling. Good stuff!

      this term is from my teacher, Dr. Roland Wiggins. it never stopped with him.

      @@ImpliedMusic I used ‘harmony highway’ with a student this week. Thanks for that, too! It was almost magical how it shifted his attitude toward practicing the circle of fifths exercises I’d given him.

    Wow, the second and the last example (those with the very long notes on the top) have a very strong Kate Bush vibe..
    And the construction is so simple. I didn't knew that. Awesome.

    This is how I needed this explained to me! I already applied it to a cue I’m working on and it did wonders for the strings

    Evaporating is pretty cool, but I like dissolving. Consider: it has a v, and also, dig this: a zzzzzzz sound. The z carries right through all of the syllables. Oh my.

    "Classical as well-" Thinking of Mozart and his slow movements in most piano concertos and in the "Jupiter" symphony. TH eway he draws out those dissonaances becomes almost unbearable and then just vainishes. Bach's pedal points too. Makes all the difference in the world. Thanks for focusing on how it works.

      Logic. Keyboard and chords are “Chordie”
