This is a brief history of Jazz taking you through all the alterations and modifications been piloted by different people sometimes with totally different approaches:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jazz

Nothing wrong with anything especially those white and black keys.

 

i agree foster nothing wrong ...also don't forget the silence between the notes...music is also the silence between the notes

 

The language of whatever music (@MMJ2017 's favorite term) isn't like a formal language that everyone has to know about. It's a bunch of informal idioms, slang, phrases, etc (without any rule) that just dear @Herr Durr understands them.

Anyway I didn't create this thread to talk about the music theory but the broader spectrum of music, whatever we do from the get-go of the production till the end about our inspirations, cultures, preferences, audiences, market, trends, ... .

 

some thoughts i would like to share with you my friend foster :
Music is a universal language & unites people from around the world.
We are gifted spirits from the kosmos or cosmos to listen to it,feel it & create it.
To me if the soul/presence/spirit that exists in the temple of our body has "wings" one would be music & the other love.
At the end all is good,enjoy making music & have fun.

 

there are many spectrums in nature :
spectrum of love,
spectrum of sound/tones/frequencies,
spectrum of color,
spectrum of emotions,
spectrum of desires,
spectrum of intelligence,
spectrum of imagination,
spectrum of insights

 

good one m8... I understand a lot of crap that probably isn't necessary, and would be totally irrelevant to you ..
however, music has been around much longer than notation, and music theory... same as language was around
for how many thousands of years before writing..

all the stuff you delve into is useful in some application, but when you make pronouncements such as

"After reading this, you'd find out... " you are really being presumptuous, with little justification
other than you read it from some self appointed educated fop or other...

Theory is a toolkit, that some people use...and some don't, well maybe not consciously, they just feel what's right
for their composition. Notation is great for things like symphonies, where there must be agreement on what to do
and when to do it... for a laptop producer or a guy in a band with a guitar.. they can create things without
the formality, and some of the apex musical artists of all time.. could NOT read music...

your real talent is on display yet again @foster911, keep reelin' them in, in 2018...

signed,

your dear H. Durr

This music has all of them imho:
Artist Bio:
Born in Athens, Greece on 8.5.1981, I started playing the guitar at the age of 7.
I have studied classical guitar with E. Assimakopoulos and Bessy Diagoma at Nakkas music school in Athens. I also studied electric guitar with Y.Samaras, T. Ziras and G. Krommydas and also music theory and classical and jazz harmony.
Now I live in Paris, France where I continue my studies in jazz improvisation at "Swing Romane Academie" with Romane, D. J. Martin and Boulou Ferre
I love metal, jazz and classical music and I really think that there should be no boundaries in inspiration and music performance.

 

I love whatever you write down in this forum. You're a real genius.

 

i've been there so many times in the past,it is also a music store/music retailer of Yamaha
i love jazz music,you can find freedom in it

*about spectrums,there are more even invisible ones(i know i'm going deep here)that human beings are not able to perceive/understand........yet

 

I love it too but just its atmosphere, texture and instruments' sounds not improvisation (the major component). If I couldn't follow the melody or find a pattern, will be lost in it.
Sth like this one:

 

nice my friend really nice
if you like jazz music,listen to Blue note records.

Also listen to this man Olymoon introduced me to this & i feel it is Amazing :

@foster911 after reading this... etc. etc...

since you like to peruse wiki's for info.. this might take too long for a short attention span ,
but it's well worth it as a foray into pop/rock music philosophy

Peter Buck has the honor of this music writer having referred to him as a "rotten cocksucker"
hope that gives you a warm glow of what's in store....

​
