I can agree with that. Most just looks better as a title of a RU-vid video. I always thought Afta-1 and Monte sounded similar until Monte starting leaning towards those trap beats everyone is making now which sounds less distinctive to me. If aliens only listened to RU-vid producers, they’d think all music was color bass, glitch and trap and that everyone used Ableton:)
What's going on with the RnB chord trick? "use the 5th chord in the scale but shift the 2nd note up a semitone" - so if you're in C, the 5th chord is G, the second note is A and we change the A to an A#? Nah man, doesn't sound good. What am I missing here?👽💋
i think he meant the second note in the triad? in the video he moved the 3 up a semitone but that just made it major so im also confused what technique thats supposed to be
Yeah I think that explanation was a mistake. If you wanna make a minor 7 chord more interesting. Add a 9th, 11th, or 13th or play around with drop voicings.
He's not counting the bass note shown in the clip. Ignore the bass note. He's using 7th chords, so they're four notes It's the second bottom of those notes. It does work! For instance, in C Minor, I could go CMin7, E flat Maj7, D half dim7 and then the fifth chord of the scale which is GMin7. That final chord sounds fine but the progression doesn't feel very r&b. However, if you take the notes of that GMin7 chord, G-A#-D-F, and instead make it G-B-D-F, it suddenly has that r&b feeling.
