Thank you Ray and Kate for featuring Throwing Words. Working with you and Jessie was rewarding in so many ways. Reviewing the theory on the song brings back fond memories of its genesis. I truly appreciate every moment working on this with such a brilliant and inspirational team.

This is so useful for me right now. It's just my riffs at the moment are in stalemate. They sound the same. This really brings new ideas and hope on improving! Busy life, haven't checked all of the videos recently, but going to. You do amazing job! :)

Thanks! Really love that melody and really digging that Swing/Shuffle on it!

So cool! That question about how you see powerchords in a riff was in my mind since I discovered this awesome channel. What about a guitar riff that doubles the base guitar like in a typical Rage Against The Machine song?

I am really benefiting with all your videos and books thanks for the help

This, at a smaller scale of course, what we called "devellopement contrapontique" in french ; one of my favourite techniques ever to write overlapping melodies <3 and you are very kind to speak about it in your vidéos ! That's not not someting people usually share on youtube <3<3<3 also I don't know how I gained access to your private/early vidéos but thanks a lot for that, it makes me really happy :p
Cheers you two :D

Thanks very much for making this video and for all tutorial videos you have made. They are awesome INFORMATIVE. I couldn't systemize my knowledge until I watch your channel and read your "song writing" book. Can you make tutorial about tips to work with kick and snare?

Following on from the 'Call and Response' technique that I mentioned about last week, I've thought of a great one for you. The rhythm is the syllables of the words. Here we go:
Kate: Would you like a cup of tea?
Ray: What did you say?
Kate: I said would you like a cup of tea?
Ray: Yes, thank you very much!
