  1. Wow, those submissions were all so good! Not just the way they used the chord, but the sound design and creativity throughout all the songs was amazing! It was so cool to hear all these genre bending, vibe blending tracks! Thank you Andrew for doing this! I am not even (too) disappointed I was not featured 😅

  2. Wow, I got so many good vibes from this! Quite a few of the tunes gave me massive Frost* vibes, and the one with the trumpet (?) sounded how I imagine a collab between Frost* and Devin Townsend would have. So much awesome 😍

  3. This is a lot like Debussy. When I learn his music, it's easier to think of stacked triads from the scale (or neighbor scales). Mitsuku Uchida (crazy awesome Mozart interpreter) said Debussy created a whole new movement of music without changing the foundation (like Schoonberg and other atonal composers). Sorry if this sounds snooty, not meant to >.< Love your content Andrew!

  4. Brent's track reminds me of Meshell Ndegeocello's , "Fool of Me". More so the tempo and key changes. And, I wanted to add H.E.R. "We Made It", with the swells and syncopated rhythms, and the amazing vocals. Not sure these two songs are in the chord progression in this video, but fa'sho not used often.

  5. DUDE. Thank you for featuring my song in this (Im A Severed Thought). All of these submissions were insane, thank you again for including me with all of these awesome artists, yourself included!

  6. Super honoured to have been included alongside everyone's awesome songs! I'm still figuring out a lot of how to make music that sounds complete and finished (and learning how to do vocals at all!), so this was incredibly motivating – thank you ✨✨

  7. I’ve been playing in Fm so much lately because I took the risk and got an OP-1 field (it was so worth it as an OG OP user and multi instrumentalist the sampling in it is so much better…it’s only a week and I’m already using more than the original when I had first gotten it, and I did love my original then and still), but the key orientation of the OP’s keep me in F or Fm
