Funky Chord Progression EXPLAINED!

In this piano tutorial, I break this funky chord progression right down and show you exactly how to play it!

This is a fantastic chord progression and it doesn't have to be funk, you can play it however you like! It is predominantly based in C minor and is 8 bars long.

This is a great chord progression for practicing some nice voicings and also for improvising over.

Who else digs this chord progression? Let me know if you want to see a lesson on how to play it with that funk rhythm :)

Bass player/beatmaker here. Not a piano player but i do love those chords. Thank for the nice tutorial

[averagehooligan]

I really like how you explain how the chords work together "this chord resolves nicely with this one" or "this chord is more exciting by adding the 9th". Leaving the chord name on the screen with the sheet music and with an extra keyboard above the one you're playing is extremely helpful! Thanks!

It’s insane how talented he is, and how he is the only pro on YouTube, that isn’t flexing all the time! Love how laid back Nice you are!

I'm a classical piano player and I had a lot of struggle to improvise properly when I have to play Pop or Jazz music. I did not know exactly how to use the blue&jazz scales and a beautiful progression. But I get better and better after I found this channel. Please keep on doing this :)

This is the only piano channel that knows what to teach in order for the person to feel like they are making progress and experimenting on their own. Thanks so so much Simon, keep it up.

So glad I just discovered this channel. There are several really good tutors on YouTube, and based on what I see here, I'd say you are as good as any of them. I'm thrilled that you have such a large library of tutorials for me to explore. Time to start binge watching....or pigging out on the JazzPig! Thanks, man.

[jessiemadrid]

Damn I can’t wait to learn this, it’s so smooth, you’ve just earned a sub 🔥

Update: I learned it in less than a day. The way you explained everything is so easy to understand, and you having the keys on the top of the actual keyboard helps me get a better visual on where the keys are. Thank you !

[joelhampl]

I quite enjoy your vids, learning a lot from your stuff so thank you very much for that sir! Although, I gotta say this doesnt seem like the kinda funk i had in mind.. Maybe a video on like Fusion Funk or something?

[Deepbluecat]
