This is the kind of functional exercise I think people should use who think reharmonization is cool but don’t want to mess with tonal theory. Also democratizes vertical harmony (or counter point) writing in a cool way people could pick up when using different voices in their arrangements. I love that. Very very good content.
This is amazing. I'm just getting into theory so it's still too advanced for me, but it's blowing my mind and inspiring me. Previously I'd just feel baffled and frustrated and exposed as a sub-remedial musician.
Dude you are the best kept secret on the music side of youtube. Absolutely love your vids, you have changed my playing forever. No doubt I'll be flexing the "I was watching cyberattack before it was cool"
super useful! brain grew watching this - i’ve always been pissed off at synths that will take a chord and then just stupidly let you play the exact same chord chromatically on the keyboard, but now i see that it’s not so stupid, and I can actually do something with that by adding bass. plus i always would be putting in different chords into a sampler but now i see i can get away with just one sometimes and do cool stuff with it love the final version of isnt she lovely #TPPLOA
Really cool departure from normal your content. Different but still feels like your vibe and this channel. Appreciate the time you took to make the graph, really useful to have it all laid out like that.
Thanks man, I actually made a ton of different versions of that graph before I finally settled on the one in the video so I’m glad it’s getting some love
you freaking wizard. I just downloaded loads of patches today for the OP-1 and so many were major chord patches and I just tossed them. Now, deep down I knew this, but I didn't know it until you unlocked this from the brain vessel. So you're a wizard.
Great work! I intuitively play the guitar not knowing (I don't know the name of the notes), because I hear what you are talking about in how I play and how I know how the notes harmonize.
Actually, when you're missing some altered notes, which are melodic intervals anyway, you can play that note as a fill on the upper octave on the bass like a fill, it will sound natural and musical.
Have you ever considered doing the Meris Polymoon? I have one and i can't begin to understand it. I'm devouring your content and learning so much, but that pedal has millions of possibilities.... thanks for such great content
I use the Bill Evans move as a basic non JaZZ Dude. The III chord over the One Chord. So over C its E Minor E G B D tp give you a major 9 chord. Over A Minor C E G B for an A Minor 9. The III chord kinda sucks as you get and F a b9 but depends you can make the G a G# and go a tritone. Great channel. I'll have to look at your six half steps move as I play II V I's over every key and the trick sounds "wrong" especially the III chord. Does that mean as you say go to F# if in C and playing the E Minor? Like a G 3rd inversion? So it's an E with G B D F# Always love your videos
The six half-steps trick will definitely sound weird, but it should only sound about as weird as an altered dominant chord, like a dominant 7 flat-5 or something. For that reason it probably works best when it's being used on some type of V chord. As for your question, let's start with a ii-V-I in the key of C. Normally that would be Dm7, G7, Cmaj7. If you wanted to do the six-half-step chord sub I talk about in this video for the G7 chord, you would play Db over G, turning the progression into this: Dm7, Db/G, Cmaj7. The Db/G will be dissonant for sure, because it's basically a G7b5b9. But dominant7 flat5 flat9 chords do exist in the world and if you voice it right, and voice the Cmaj7 afterward right, it will sound cool.
It's actually just me strumming a major barre chord into the Space Force reverb. I go over exactly how I captured it and turned it into what it is in my dedicated video about the Octatrack, if you want the full story: ruclips.net/video/TewIIjTZBCQ/видео.html
This intro sounds really interesting, but all I can hear is your fucking OJ videos because you have a very particular tone and cadence and I shared your Tropicana videos with everyone I know and watched with them to make sure they watched your TPPOJLA videos.
thank you, also 100% yes that the potential for soloing here is extremely cool. arpeggiating an E major over an A major sounds awesome and is one of my favorite tricks

I remember renting Chrono Trigger with a max plus game character already stacked. The whole community defeated Lavos that day
"You can do anything you want; if you just make adjustments." - that one's gonna stick with me.
that’s really the message of my whole RUclips channel
My man turning all of his followers into guitar assassins with this video. Thank you!!!
we are the hand of death
As someone that has been "hacking" music theory all my life (and refusing to learn things properly) I loved this video!

love this shit. please do more
thanks dude. what other music theory topics should i talk about
@@CyberattackWorld anything else that will bring me 1% closer to knowing how to use chords like Stevie wonder does lol

Best channel on RUclips, Ivan. Love the whole vibe and the info is so useful.
Glad you're enjoying it

So you're a wizard.
Genius video! Why have I never thought about using a bass to augment major triads. Your videos are inspiring! Please keep it up. Thank you.
Wow I didn’t realize as much about theory into I saw this. Seriously you’re extremely talented and smart to think through all this
was waiting for you to delve into theory
errbody lookout
Great tips, definitely want to try these out. And the game sprites from dragonlance used in the video were a nice hit of nostalgia for me.
oh man i'm so glad you recognized those dungeons and dragons sprites, that's awesome, thank you
Good work,man really love the visuals
Inspiring, well produced, quality content - keep it coming.
will do, thanks man
Loved this video man
Super inspiring!

YESSSSSS!!!!! You are the man!!!!!

You're attacking tough concepts with a guerilla, IDGAF attitude. It is wonderful.
More of this please. I need more music theory fuckery.

Great video, I'd love to hear more of your thoughts on theory meeting practice.
Thanks, I think the next one is gonna be about modes
I am 1000% here for more advanced (or fundamental) music theory hard-core pro tips from your brain
Thanks I’m working on one about the modes
Reminds me of Ron Jarzombek
It sounded so wonky and weird with those samples, and I fuckin’ loved it. The function is “fuck you”
Great video! I'm excited to dig into this. Also my favorite quote was "It has the same function. The function is: fuck you." hahahaha
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Love how ya used old DND video game sprites and characters from Dragonlance - above and beyond bro
i'm so glad you caught that
I use the Bill Evans move as a basic non JaZZ Dude.

CYBERATTACK, where did you get the major triad sample here? It sounds like your 1st pro-tip on "Chase Bliss Habit: How to be Advanced"

John Wick 5: Cyberattack Guitar Assassin. Nobody explains Music Theory for Guitar better than Ivan.
Also, amazing potential for soloing using triad shapes.
