It’s called Supertonic because it means « above » the tonic.

I wish they put her name so we can get more of her production tips or even watch more of her work. Literally every video that I’ve seen where she’s teaching a concept has been so specifically helpful to me. I don’t know if you’ll see this but thank you 🙏🏾 💯

Good find I use this lot myself in my new music big difference

[-Dominique]

Know that's 🎵, Sza. Keep the harmony basic and your mind will know freely where to go

[prodbyjyair]

the chord progression for Snooze is 2-3-4, so it’s resolving on the 4🤔

I love such short, practical music theory videos. I can learn and immediately start putting them into use. Thank you

Note choice simply depends on the chords underneath. All of the songs mentioned here use the ii chord, which subconsciously leads vocalists to use the root of that chord (the "Super Tonic" mentioned) since it will sound good. This isn't Secret Sauce, it's basic music theory

i thought she was gonna say the runaway note and troll us

[cbrooks]

Did she just complicate the explanation of how to play in Dorian, or did I miss something?

[mhe]

What?? Hotline bling is in the key of d minor so the supertonic would be E. Furthermore he only sings three notes on the g which basically just creates the a minor 7. There is no substance to this - at least not with the examples provided.

[shanehiggins]

You made this needlessly complicated, and I'm almost positive you're wrong as well. The 5th in any scale is going to be the second most dominate note in the scale besides the root

[unallocatedinfluence]

Sounds like a 6 instead of a two . . Or I'm starting from the wrong note

[AngelRodriguez-ixqn]

Thats a lot music knowledge for such garbage music and lyrics

[CStoph]

All those songs suck though. Modern music is crap. maybe this is why
