#chords

I also spent time with the Roland CR78, Behringer RD78 & RD6 (TR606) drum machines, through effects.

Next was building interesting chord progressions. Not typical, and with the progression over 12 bars. Those chords are played on the Fender Chroma, which extensions and decorations are played on a pair of Roland JP-08 polychained (replicating a complete Jupiter 8).

Some parts are sequence gated on an odd 9 over 16.

I was expecting something with a lot more dissonance when I initially lay the key down.

After all, I needed 26 chords (potentially, here in practice the message doesn't use all the letters of the alphabet).

But there are some interesting progressions here I would never have attempted.

I'm working on Ben Folds' Battle of Who Could Care Less. The lyrics are starting to make me feel seen in a way that makes me sad.

I: G F Eb Db, Db Eb B Db :| F
V: G F Eb, EbM7 F Db Eb :| F
C: c7 Bb F, c7 Bb F, c7 Bb F Eb, C G
B: Eb, G, Eb, G, C D G C, C D G C, C D G C, EbM7

(Intro, Verse, Chorus, Bridge. Lower case is minor, commas mark phrases of usually 8 beats, ':|' is a repeat.)

(I forget whether I posted these #chords here, or somewhere else.)

Moin. Heute habe ich mal eine Frage an die #ukuleleplayer . Wo finde ich denn ein #chords -Tabelle für die unselige ADFh Stimmung. Die scheint ja irgendwie selten zu sein. Oder ist es sinnvoller auf die andere umzusteigen. Keine Ahnung, warum meine Musiklehrerin die vorgeschlagen hat.

I working on putting chords in a score tonight from a "real" fake book. There are chord symbols that I (or my music major) wife have never seen. I found a great resource for pulling apart the chords so I can put them in the score. Wow. It tells you how to buld them and play them and it plays them for you! musicca.com/dictionary/chords
