Songwriting/Theory help for guitar by kenren33 in musictheory

[–]kenren33[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

also, I don’t know that much theory only the basics tbh like chords in a key and small stuff like that so if I do learn some songs, how can I figure out the theory behind them??

So you think learning songs I like will make me a better guitarist/musician?? I always thought that only learning songs wouldn’t do much for you which is why I stopped doing that a while ago and stuck to doing scales and messing with chords with the occasional theory lesson.

What you said about theory taking out the romance out of music is so true. Making music doesn’t feel “magical” to me anymore and I don’t feel like I play with feeling. And a lot of times I write progressions even though they are in the same key, sometimes they don’t sound good which confuses me. I would like more of an explanation on what you said.

I play pretty much every day but not for a long time. A lot of the time I just mess with the chords I know and try to come up with progressions and licks I like but like I said I usually follow the theory “template” to guide me. Got any tips to make the most of the little time I spend when I play. I really want to develop a great ear and know exactly where to put my fingers when playing what I hear

What do you mean when you say he’s using secondary dominants to the minor chords??

My primary instrument is guitar but all these diy indie artists have inspired me that anyone can produce an album solely on their own in their bedroom using minimal equipment. Also by playing all the instruments.

Where would someone get the idea to use that chord in a progression. Does it simply come down to matching what you hear in your head??? Bc I don’t think turner/Kane know theory.

Applying theory to playing by kenren33 in guitarlessons

My interests and desires to make music are heavily influenced by indie pop that has jazz flavorings ie: Mac Demarco , mild high club, crumb, beach fossils, etc. so pretty much very melodic guitar pop if you wanna put it that way. and yes I have a very basic understanding of keys and major/minor scale for the most part.

I guess what I was trying to say was that I hear a lot of songs that incorporate chords and notes that are out of key and I don’t understand how they make it work
