Unknown Mortal Orchestra would be really cool!
I've just been getting into them, anything in particular you'd like to know about?
@@tonton_bkg Their whole album Multi-Love is really really cool! Some songs that really capture my ear are Can't Keep Checking My Phone and The World Is Crowded
Thanks man!
agreed!!!
@@tonton_bkg I'm not sure if you did the video on them or not, as this is my first video of yours I've seen, but I'd love to know how they got that guitar tone on the Hunnybee solo.
came to rip off my fav band, left with a working knowledge of maj7 chords. GG!!
Thanks! I think I could go my whole life just playing maj7 chords if I had to.
Same here 😝😝
its just kevin composing
W comment
@@funkwy431its just Kevin don’t everything😂😂😂 he plays every instrument and he produces and mix’s his songs
i didn’t understand any of the music talk but those chords are amazing
I’m currently in the works of making an album and wanted to go with a psychedelic vibe and this helped a lot! Thank you!
Glad to help :D
Did you finish your album
Thanks for this video!
fantastic! WISH U THE BEST
Awesome bro
You’re the man, thank you
good info cheers my guy
nice little nod to Keith Emerson in that synth bit.
great stuff man
bro this is so helpful
excelent video i came looking for silver and i found gold greetings from mexico
Nice job man!
that Cmaj7 Ebmaj7 Dmaj7 progression though.
mild high club would be sick!
Ooh I know that band! I heard this song Countdown by them.... from an album called Sketches of (something) East
@@atharvachoudhary6974 yess, great song! that's a mild high club - king gizzard and the lizard wizard collaboration. I recommend you the album "skiptracing" by them.
I could hear the vocals even though they werent there
The power of iconic chord progressions!
great video dude
Really enjoyed the song at the end!
FIRE!!!!!!
Way above my skill level.
what you made at the end was sick!!!!
🙏🙏🙏
Wow, this was so helpful! Tame Impala is one of my favorites too, and now I have even more of an appreciation for Kevin Parker. Very cool track at the end!
excellent work dude! I'd love for you to cover Khruangbin
Thanks! A lot of harmonic similarities between them and Tame if I remember correctly. It may be worth giving them another listen.
Didn't actually think I'd learn this much, great explanation and awesome jam session at the end! You got my sub
Thanks, thanks, and thank you!
Great video man
Thanks :)
so he does the classic, very popular 1 to 4 (C - F). adding a harmonic 7. Nothing too crazy here.
Brilliant! Loved the original tune you guys are playing at the end.
lol thanks
Thank for a lovely demoing. It was a pleasure to watch and hear.
awesome video!! thanks!
Great video! Would love to see more videos analyzing chord progressions/theory within the genre :) !
Amazing work! Thank you
Very impressive video and easy to understand! You’re an excellent teacher I must say!
This sounds so good it sounds like dungen when the second guitar comes up after the synth interlude, super awesome job I loved it!!
Never thought of it like that but you’re totally right! :)
This is amazing! Fantastic work!
nice!
🤘
Man i love this ,just freaking awesome! Please keep making these videos!
Mikecrophone Drums I’ve got one in the oven right now :)
Never commented on a video before but just had to for this one! Thank you for breaking down maj7 chords helps a lot 🤙
Hello, i love the song you made at the end, did you put this music on spotify, soundcloud or anything ?? I just need to listen to it like i realy fckin love it.
What a surprise to have Madden on there! She is awesome!
She’s the best
such a great video !! thanks for sharing man !!
Wild Nothing Nocturne album
Great rec, totally grew up on that album.
Solid video - something clicked for me, between your clear explanation and the guitar/piano visuals. I really liked the jam at the end, too!
Thanks! Glad to hear it - music theory isn't worth much if you don't implement it imo
please please please please please do puma blue.
more chords and music theory and songwriting! homeshake chord video would be cool :) great videos
Thanks for making this so easy and for the examples! :)
Bro this video is great! Thank you!!
Hey, amazing video! You're doing a great job here and explain everything perfectly.
Great, simple explanation.
Great tutorial! Keep it up ❤️
I love this video, it actually helped me a bit to figure out some progression that I could use for my recent album. Very cool!
Nice work! Keep it up
Radiohead, the Smiths, any indie guitar stuff that sneak out of the diatonic would be cool and loved the multi instrumental outro btw
איזה מבטא אתה אלללל אהבתי את הסרטון ואת הערוץ בכללי. מגיב בכוונה בערבית, כבוד!
really good video!! came to this looking for production tips, but i was pleasantly surprised by some music theory! keep it up man!
kazki That was the thought behind making it; everyone always talks about his production but he is a great songwriter as well!
great video, I really appreciate this.
Appreciate it!
Wow! The little song at the ending was great
Glad you liked it! Kev's style probably deserves most of the credit :)
This is exactly the type of video I've been looking for, a music theory breakdown of my fave artist, time to deep dive into your archive of videos, thank you for this!!
U r a genius brother. Thanks a lot, 🙏
Sharada Prasad You’re far too kind :)
You killed it Yonatan!
Aww thanks!
Wow!
I love this video, thank you.
Thank YOU!
Great video! Just learned (well, technically knew it but not used) that sweet sweet shape for M7 chords rooted on D string and it gave soo much new ideas and possibilities
I think you'll like Ms. Crumby by The Audition, the intro uses this very shape with some hint of Emajor as well....
Really good delivery in this video! Clear and engaging
Bravo ! Well done. Excellent instruction. Final product was pure ear candy. Brilliant. Thank you, you got another sub here.
Bro, these videos are REALLY amazing, please do mild high club!
Hey how about a video on the Holy Drug Couple? Great video btw
Brilliant. Great explanation and practical application at the end. You got my sub.
are my fingers supposed to be capable of spreading that far apart?? I cannot do that
Excellent video, man. So accurate and your jam at the end is 🔥
Much appreciated my man
Could you analyze Johnny marr please?
Exceeeeellent video thank you. Didn’t spend too much time on beginner stuff but enough to help beginners. Excellent example at the end. Fantastic to see a flat 3 major 7 working, and the video didn’t take all day to watch. Don’t stop dude, make a million videos.
Heartwarming comment
this is soo beautifulllll
Aww thanks!
Great video man thank u for this I have no music theory so this helps so so much
So glad to hear it!
Can you review bands like Paper Kites, Last Lynx, The Wombats
major Lonerism vibes from the example jam, loved this video. feeling inspired to write a psychedelic rock song now...
My thoughts exactly
you'd make a great professor! awesome video.
Thanks! Hopefully someday :)
that was cool! Im a big fan of major 7s and it was super interesting to learn about flattening the 3 and 7 second chord to make it maj7. He does that 1 4 switch as well in the song expectation. rapidly going between Cmaj7 and Fmaj7. Also a less known track that uses major 7 brilliantly is Lansing by Vinyl Williams. please check it out!
Expectation is such a great example! Such a gem...
reading this was like reading chinese
RicmuBeats the numbers were using like 1 and 4 are referring to the Nashville number system! So if you’re in a key of C, your 1 chord is c major. The 4 chord is also major. So the video is explaining how if you drop the normal notes for the 3 and 7 chord, you can play all major 7 chords. It helps to know the Nashville stuff.
@@findtheothers thanks!
Thanks bro, Lansing from William Vinyl is sooo goood, thanks. Generally i'm really picky with songs, but this one really got me.
Nice video man, really nicely explained 👍
Thank you, I try my best!
BORNS IF YOU STILL MAKE THESE
Yes sir! Enjoy the video!! Super cool!
Thanks Sunny!
Holy shit, u went crazy at the end so good man
wow dude & dudette, bravo!
Thanks! Yeah, dudette is definitely killer.
What!!! That was absolutely wavy 👌
🌊🌊🌊
amazing job dude
Thanks!
holy crap! that bit at the end was the best imitation of Tame Impala I've ever heard! Fantastic job!
:) :) :)
Proud to have learned from you both on RUclips and in real life. Hope all is well!
Heartwarming :)
This is a great video, well put together, to the point, you say what is necessary and aren't milking time. Great visuals as well man. Excellent job! Sick jam at the end too. Loved that bass!
Thank you! I wish it was my jazz bass, but sadly I've had to give it back to the person I borrowed it from since releasing this.
Yonatan Farhi oooof that bass sounds great! Makes me want one. Great playing though man. Looking forward to future vids you do
@@caldarant Just released one on Mac DeMarco, Check it out on my channel!
Flat six maj7 chords going to the fifth dominant7 in a major context is also a nice trick ;)
Totallyyyy
this is amazing! your passion for music just makes me so happy :) keep up the great work +new sub
Tesseract pls
i am actually stunned at your recreation there that's entirely accurate hahahaha, props man
Definitely need to hear some MGMT chord breakdowns
Great vídeo man, keep it lit 🔥
Thanks man :)
Simply epic
corn 🤘
Oli🤣🤣🤣

A “flat 7 major 7” is called a dominant 7.
fantastic vid! You deserve more subs!
Thanks! As long as anyone learns something from this, I'm happy :)
@@tonton_bkg I certainly did! Keep on keeping on :))
That song at the end is pretty fire my dudes.
just wanna say that there are much easier ways to play major seven chords off the e string on guitar than the way you did it. the stretch isn’t necessary.
Great video please do one on mgmt specifically the chords and melodies on their album congratulations
Also the flaming lips and Boards of Canada
@@TheJonasx8 The Soft Bulletin and Congratulations are two of my favorite albums!
Do Alex g
