Every time I need to know
how many sharps or flats
are in a key I use the
Circle of Fifths
.
.
.
I use
The Major Scale
to
find the key of a song.
When I find the key using
The Major Scale
if the one
chord is not right I try the
Diatonic Modes
If we look at
the
Circle of Fifths
the inner
ring shows every
Major Scales
relative
Minor Scale
.
The Diatonic Scale is
most familiar as
The
Major Scale
or
The Minor
Scale
but there's more.
.
.
The Blues Scale
is
derived from the Minor
Pentatonic Scale
but has a sharp 4th for that
blues feel.
.
If you want to rock
you need to know
The Pentatonic Scale
.
.
.
.
The Chromatic Scale
Includes every note in
an octave and all octaves
are the same.
.
.
All the scales used in
all music theory
Diatonic Scales
.
.
.
.
Diatonic Harmony
is what it
is all about. All music uses
Diatonic Harmony
and I
have a cool chart that
makes the whole thing fun.
.
Using all the notes is the
coolest thing ever.
Chromatic Harmony
.
.
.
A one four five for happy
and a two three six for sad.
.
.
.
.
Diatonic Modes
the seven
modes are
Ionian
,
Dorian
,
Phrygian
,
Lydian
,
Mixolydian
,
Aeolian
and
Locrian
. Sounds hard right?
It's Not!
Diatonic Chords
are in all
music and here they are.
.
.
.
.
Like most rhythmists I came
late to music theory,
but I'm still a rhythmist at
heart
Rhythm Training
ftw.
.
.
Once I got few key music
theory concepts down I
could start to love reading
about music theory. I've
hand-picked well rated
Music Theory Books
.
Here are some of the very
best
Music Theory Classes
in the world. wish I could
go.
.
.
.
It's because of
synths
that
I've been able to almost
make a living composing
and I've got my favs here.
.
.
Here at
Drum Riff
are
some trap sets that I think
rock!
.
.
.
Hand picked drum
machines, books,
Drum
Patterns
and more.

Posted the coolest guitar
trick here at
Wah Wah
Guitar
learn these simple
shapes and then use the
Diatonic Harmony Chart
.
.
Everyone should
practice to a
Music
Metronome
.
.
.
.
I cant live without
my
Chord
Computer
.
.
.
.
.
Super boring subject but
here are a few
Music Industry Guides
.

Electro Hop
stuff for now.
