    The Fundamentals of Neo-Soul Keyboard is one of the hottest and most coveted DVDs every made. Let's face it, musicians love neo-soul, because it is a genre that posses the smoothness of soul; the improvisational creativity of jazz; the grit of hip-hop; and the head-bobbing phenomena of funk.
    You can't get these chords with your neighborhood piano teacher. These chords are "secret" chords that the streets possess and are shared only in underground basement shed sessions. For the first time, these secret chords will be exposed for all of it's funky glory. You get a little over an hour of the phattest neo-soul chord progressions that you hear on the radio or from your favorite neo-soul artists. We spent time in the studio showing the movements, then we took time to chart out all of the movements in a nice score. You get the MIDI files for your tracks and for your virtual MIDI viewer such as MIDIculous. Finally you get tons of theory booklets and resources so that you actually understand what you are playing. The notations are so easy to follow and very simple to understand.
    From coming from a gospel background, we can all agree that musicians love neo-soul and these concepts that we teach can be applied to every urban genre of music from gospel to R&B. If you are looking to finally make some smooth grooves with your tracks and become an urban producer, then this DVD will give you all the tools to produce your first album. If you are getting a little bored with the same chords you've been playing all the time, now it's time totally transform your style by adding a touch of neo-soul to your keyboard playing!

    Haha I love black people's reaction when a musician hits that super fat sexy chord, they hit you with the Rick Flair "WOOOOOOO" and then proceed to relocate, sometimes walking out of the room entirely, priceless. Gospel musicians are always incredible

    So I've had this DVD for 24 hours now. Two words....THANK YOU! I've learned so much already. If anyone is considering buying this, do it. But if you're a beginner, I recommend, practicing your scales, major and minor. Once you can play those fluently, this video will be even easier. Thanks again guys.

    I bought the DVD/Download its worth it! The other neo soul tutorials don't get as detailed. You'll need to practice but he shows you exactly what to work on. Im on video 3 of the series and anyone with very basic music theory can learn it. Unsure if he dives into improvisation but the way he shows you to create chords can easily allow you to improvise. I don't think youll find a better tutorial online thats as detailed. I'm a classical pianist thats been playing since i was 10 he knows his stuff. Unsure if he gets detailed about neo soul funk grooves the way Jaime Foxx improvises. None the less its worth buying

It's just not on the screen, because it's very hard to find a MIDI Rhodes and you can't quite do a Neo-Soul DVD without a real Rhodes.
