New Year Neo Jazz Progression

Once you understand this chord structure, your piano playing will never be the same. It's used commonly in both Jazz and Neo Soul, but you'll really hear it used in an absolutely gorgeous way in modern Neo Soul-Inspired tracks that cross genres as well. A really important part of this sound is the dim(maj7) chord, i.e. a diminished triad with a major 7. The structure comes down to being built like a block chord, but with a major 7 instead of a 6. Use this over any melody or chord progression for a modern sound. Enjoy this jazz and Neo Soul piano tutorial with Noah Kellman.

Mmmmm, beautiful. Reminds me of a summer day, overlooking the ocean.

What do I do to learn to play like this?

[gdaffix]

how do you come up with these? normal progressions are ok because you have keys and all that but these neo type progressions practically change key every chord

i want to make them but i dont really know where to start

also another problem that i have is that i can make chord progs that sound really good in my head but for some reason when i try and convert them to piano i cant; i lose motivation, cant get the right chord, etc.

How do you count something as Neo jazz? From what I know jazz is fairly self-reinventing so the concept of their being a neo jazz is redundant
