HOW TO WRITE INDIE CHORD PROGRESSIONS

Also watch the full video to see me tell a very bad joke in a very awkward way.

I spend quite a lot of time figuring out how to play some songs ,making the tabs and chord diagrams and editing. It would be very kind if some of you could show some support through Paypal, but only if you can really spare the money! When sending a donation you can also write a message so if you tell me your channel name or something else i can definitly give you a shoutout.

Also a thank you to Corbin Gomez. He also did a video on this subject and i got the example of let her go from that video.

As one of you mentioned there should be two important corrections to the video:
1. When adding the fourth note to the chords the 7th one becomes a minor7flat 5. So in this case a Bm7dim. Instead of a Bdim7. Which makes it that adding even one note on top of that makes it an bm7b5b9. But again. This chord isn't used a lot as the 7th chord in a chord progression.
2. When adding the 5th note to the third chord it becomes a minor7flat9. So in this case an Em7b9. Instead of a Em9.


Also i might not have stressed this enough, but in a lot of song the key of the chord progressions changes. So the verse can ofcourse be in a different key than the chorus. Even within a chord progressions you can change keys. Giant steps by John Coltrane is a famous and extreme example of changing keys in a song.


Thank you guys for noticing and if you have any questions let me know :)

Ive been playing guitar on and off since i was around 7. (im 21 now) I was in lessons for a few years at that age and learned very simple stuff 12 notes in music, eadgbe, simple chords, tablature, and intros to simple songs. Since then ive been mostly self taught through you tube, and djent let me say, thank you so much. your videos have taught me more in a few days than almost every other channel combined over the years. You're a godsend and im grateful :)

Perfect timing! I just rewatched the first two videos you made on indie music theory and you upload this :D You make the best vids!

[nonoyes]

I just stumbled into these videos after struggling a little with truly understanding how to piece together chord progressions. I have always struggled with really grasping music theory but this made it so easy. Excellent video man better than any music teacher I've ever had

[ironman]
