Hey everyone, here's a little project I've been working on for a while - a list of some of my favourite chord progressions and sequences that work great for Midwest Emo, Math Rock, And Post Rock.
Something that you might notice in these progressions is that they are quite simple and there's the underlying theme of 1) the progressions start on either IV, I, or vi, and 2) the movement is very stepwise instead of the traditional pop leaps going in 3rds / 6ths and 4ths / 5ths. Makes for some great simple movement and emotional tension!

Lol! It was NEVER MEANT to be played in standard tuning 😂 this is amazing, keep up the good videos Trevor. You’re a huge inspiration for me musically and someone that helps me keep going in guitar

That Emaj9 is definitely one of those "so now you just dislocate your fingers for this part, super simple stuff"

@marshtab Год назад

A note with the TMP riff is it's written in lydian so really it's a 1-3-2 progression. But obviously 1-3-2 in lydian is 4-6-5 in major. They just resolve to the first chord through that song.

@davidsixstrings 9 месяцев назад

that's right, if E is home then: Imaj7 / II7 / III-7 / VII-7

when u use numbers to describe the chord progression makes its so much easier :D tanks

@tokisuno Год назад

how do you understand it?

@momorarr Год назад

@@tokisuno the basically idea is the number is corelated to the note in the scale. So the IV would be Fmaj and ii Dmin in C major . sorry for the bad explanation lol

@tokisuno Год назад

@@momorarr ohhh i see. that's interesting. i don't know theory formally like, at all. this seems useful to learn.

I know you did the 2010s shoegaze video a while back, I’d love to see a breakdown of 2010s emo. A lot of shoegaze infused stuff, it’d be cool to see how a lot of those bands blended those sounds together.

@dro_pez5306 Год назад

Glad to see you post again! Love the long form videos. Great progression video as well! Definitely will add these to my playing. Have a good day, man!

Nice! If I may make a request can you do a video on that midwest emo play style that ppl put over sad movie/tv clips, you know the tally twinkly melodic stuff. Appreciate all the work you do you have been a huge help ❤

@Turbovolver Год назад

Royal Road is 4-5-3-6

@ivansoto9723 19 дней назад

@@Turbovolver Basically same thing. The core of the progression is IV-V-vi (imo it's actually VI-VII-i). There are many, many variations.

@miceobaba7826 7 месяцев назад

this really showed me that I have no concept of applying scales ad hoc to something. Whats the best way to get started towards being able to know the 4,5,6,3 and so on chord in any given scale and being able to find the place to play them?

@travy5458 7 месяцев назад

first off, look up a picture of every musical note on the guitar fretboard and just try to memorize where they are based on the dots. For the chord degrees, essentially they represent the notes 1-8 in the scaleyour playing in, so in cmaj you’d go c-d-e-f and boom theres your 4, f (and if your confused on making chords look into chord shapes)

@slobster67 Год назад

Trevor, can you also do some post-hardcore/prog ish chord progression?

@panema0 Год назад

what are the numbers for (e.g. 4 5 6 5)? i never learnt about that stuff, and i don't understand how you turn a chord into a progression like that haha

@antonyjohansson4006 11 месяцев назад

Its basic music theory I reccomend you learn, the chords in all scales are basically numbered in order. Playing the 4th chord of a scale and then the 5th for example will give the same effect whatever scale you are in even though it sounds different.

@panema0 11 месяцев назад

@@antonyjohansson4006 tysm after this comment i searched it up and so i kinda found it out - isn't it basically different chords per key? like abcdefg or defgabc n stuff like that e.g in d, the fourth would be g, the fifth would be a and the sixth would be b

The chords can’t be possible bro

@Reriiru 4 месяца назад

For a 4-5-6-3 it doesn't make that much sense. It's actually 5-6-1-7 in a relative scale. Which does make a lot of sense with this kind of a reverse-lead relationship (one leads into seven instead of the other way around).

@ivansoto9723 19 дней назад

I agree, but the reason this misconception started was because although a lot of Japanese songs use the progression, there tends to be a point in some Japanese songs where they modulate to major, recontextualizing the progression.
