Dope lesson. It's probably worth noting that the dim7 is so useful because it can be resolved up from the root, down from the 5th or 7th, and up or down from the 3rd. This makes it really good for key changes.

I’ve been learning music theory by myself for two months and you made this perfectly understandable. Thank you for the insights!

This pattern is commonly used in classic salsa, although these melodies are usually done by piano and brass.. Awesome lesson as usual mate!

Did not know this Ty for sharing!

Been playing 15 years and this dude blows my Mind with every video

Had a teacher taught me a touch of this when I was a kid. Been using it ever since. I'm old, so I love the pentatonic scale, but that Diminished flare once in a while is really nice.

Very nice final lick!

Very Stray Cat Strut. I like it.

Fantastic jazzy cool

You're the best at breaking stuff down. I am trying to teach myself guitar but I got stuck on soloing. You've been a huge help, definite subscribe!

makes it pretty and soulful and nasty all at the same time !!!! Love it!

Playing blues and jazz walks in... 😊

I am so thankful to KZread for letting me find this - amazingly succinct shorts and I have played for 30 years - amazing

I’d love to see a technical deep dive on the train bend into slide riff you open with. I can’t seem to nail this within phrases.

hey Brother you are the best teacher ever I'm teaching my self guitar also wish you were in my area big up bro thanks you for the info

great explanation!

It is by far one of the easiest, simplest, and most commonly used sounds to create a mild pull to the next chord. Has been used for literally hundreds of years and really should be a technique in everyone's tool kit!

​​@@LoGsounds ​It's quickly becoming one of my favorite things to do. Particularly over something like this Am E7 progression, since all the notes in the diminished arpeggio are ones that stay inside the mode of A Dorian which works out really nicely(:

@LoGsounds

Жыл бұрын

So over that progression, you can play diminished literally on the root of the A minor, that will give you 1-b3-b5-6 which are all generally palatable notes for a standard minor vamp (minor 6 with the casual b5). Do this during the A minor, and then when E7 happens play the diminished I'm doing in this video, which is the same diminished but back a fret, so instead of starting on A you start on G#. This diminished fits perfectly over that E7, as you would be playing a sound made of E7's b2-3-5-b7. This usage of diminished over this type of dominant chord is actually where diminished 7 came from in the first place.

@@LoGsounds Hah! I'll have to try that. So many little things right under our noses. And I was actually off a bit in my last comment btw. Was trying to say Aeolian instead of Dorian because you get the 2 4 b6 and 7 with the G# dim arpeggio, which combined with minor pentatonic (1 b3 4 5 b7) gives you all the notes of A Aeolian plus a maj7 but that's given to us by the third (G# again) of the E dominant. Hopefully that cleared up things if I happened to make little sense the first time around lol.. my mistake. Anyway, I appreciate all the engagement you offer on this channel atop of the content itself. It's a real treat.

@LoGsounds

Жыл бұрын

It's all good! Even though it's not what you meant, you mentioning Dorian is actually why I suggested playing diminished off of the actual root, as it yields a natural 6 over that minor chord, which is the color note of Dorian, or what I call "the 2 chord". All cool sounds for sure!

Do you throw this over a dominant 5 chord or just whenever it feels right? Sweet idea gonna try this

@LoGsounds

Жыл бұрын

Over a dominant 5 chord diminished works perfectly, because it basically is the dominant 5 chord. When you play diminished over minor like I'm doing in this video, you're basically implying the dominant 5 chord, so you can use your intuition and ear to figure out when it's appropriate. If you're curious I have a very large ongoing series on this sound currently: kzread.info/head/PL1HaLokJCJ6KN4KY9L5nrE5G5N56ZppPL

Thanks for the comment. 1.) These are KZread shorts, they are 60 seconds maximum. Only so much you can do in that timeframe 2.) The material discussed in this short is not necessarily for beginners. Some of my material is, but this one in particular is more for people who are familiar with the sounds being discussed, and would like some guidance. 3.) My material is not necessarily about copying the licks I'm playing. It's more about taking the concept that I'm talking about and doing your own thing with it. In reality, creating your own ideas with a concept is far more valuable than copying someone's licks. If you are interested, I am beginning a very long series on this exact sound tomorrow on my channel.
