Hey Folks! This might be my favorite lesson ever. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! It has already been copyright claimed by bots, but I don't want to remove the examples, I think they're important. In case you didn't see it earlier, the intro music to this video was composed live in a stream ...

2021-05-25 14:57:05 +0000 UTC View PostTomorrow morning at 11:00 AM CST I'll be doing a Live Lesson / Q+A. It's a weird time, I know, but I'm aware that many people can't make my Monday evening streams, so maybe this helps reach some folks overseas :)
Here's something else for yall- I was invited on to Brian Funk's Music Product...

Warning- this might be a TOTAL FLOP, but it's worth a shot! I have an interesting project to complete and I figured it might be fun to see how I tackle it.
I'll (hopefully) be compo...

Hey everyone! I realized as I was working on my Harmonic Minor mega lesson that I should probably make some nice pretty charts for you all, and that spiraled in to a brand new Ultimate Modal Poster (Harmonic Minor Edition). My last poster took me 3 months to finish, but fortunately I'm able to re...

Great questions, once again. A few have me stumped :P

There were a lot of questions last week on something I said in my video on studio preparation, so I figured I'd do a brief overview of the concept and hopefully "teach a person to fish" so they know when and why they should double track. It's certainly not a must for every genre, but you should b...

Happy Music Theory Wednesday (Formerly Known As Music Theory Monday). This is, truthfully, one of the easier videos I've had to complete in recent memory, and I was still somehow two days late on it! It contains a lot of advice for anyone who is planning on ever getting themselves recorded, and I...

Today was supposed to include a YouTube video post today but I didn't get things done in time - sorry! The video should post tomorrow instead, but today we'll still be doing our live lesson. Hope to see you there!

Well as you probably have all noticed by now, I'm very very bad at keeping to a schedule. I was aiming for a video every Monday of March and today's video was supposed to be on studio musicianship, but I got distracted midweek on this project and couldn't let it go.
This is the result! Now ...

2021-03-01 19:51:19 +0000 UTC View PostTomorrow I'll be releasing a new YouTube video on 9/8 that I'm very excited for people to see, I feel it'll be very helpful for many of you! I'll be happy to answer any questions on the video then, but ask any other questions here so I can prepare some answers for you tomorrow :)
Hey everyone! I'm trying something big for March. I've got so many ideas for videos but picking and choosing one has been hard, so I'm going to just put the schedule down in stone here to stay on track. The goal is to have a new Youtube video up every Monday in March!

I was wondering where all your questions were, then I realized my scheduled post was scheduled for the wrong day- oops!
Still have time to collect questions though, and of course take some live, so please ask away!

Come along with me as I tackle a music making challenge: Compose a one minute track that embodies a thunderstorm, and employs polyrhythms. The challenge was posted by Eric Stark in the music games channel of the Signals Music Discord and I decided to give it a shot.

As requested, here's a walk through of some of the extra layers I used in my Locrian song. Hopefully you see that there is no right or wrong way to make these layers, and their power is subtle but very useful!
Thanks for participating in the poll also! Tomorrow morning I'll be on Discord to...

I'm late with this post, but there's still time to collect questions and of course I'm happy to answer them live as well. I will not make another post tonight with the link so make sure you save this link!
