    Q: What's the next big thing in music? A: Frivolous lawsuits.
  • Great vid! Fun fact: The scale being played at 7:02 is actually an old scale in classical Japanese music that was once the backbone of many popular and folk songs in Japan up until/through the early 20th century. The scale comes from the tuning of the strings on a koto, and a few well-known 20th century composers have given their variants on the tunings/root note, but they all follow the same pattern. If you're wondering what gives old Japanese music a certain feeling, this is a good place to start. 😃

    "Always be the worst musician in the room." I knew I was a genius for not practising all these years!
  • @DrewGulliver
    I always feel 1,000x smarter after watching your videos
  • @atonofspiders
    As a 15+ years guitarist, I find it amazing and get sorta envious at how much easier it is for me to visualize chords and theory on a piano.

    Adam, 35 years ago, I was a white suburban high school kid who was very proud of my eccentric taste in music. I played bass in the school jazz band and sang in the jazz choir, and very much wanted to love jazz, but struggled to find common ground with it. It just didn't speak to me. But still, I listened. Late one night, driving home from the club alone, I heard a 14 minute song that changed it all, and to this day, it remains one of my all time favorite pieces of music. The 1958 recording of Lush Life by John Coltrane who hands it to Red Garland, and then to Donald Byrd all backed by Paul Chambers bowing. Performance aside, Lush Life as a song really is unique in all music. I'm so happy it still has that effect on younger players.
  • @091Cash
    I could honestly watch an hour loop of Adam whispering random stuff over the whole tone scale.
  • @parvgosai
    Time to find 6 other piccolo players...
  • @Dhakadice
    7:45 "I think the direct lineage of metal comes more from blues..." THANK YOU! Finally, a sane person!
  • @Jack93885
    TIL I've always played slash chords backwards. I've always played them as a power chord with the first letter denoting the bottom. Finally I know why some songs sounded so weird
  • @samljones
    Cm7b6b9 is my new favourite chord lmao
  • Came here for a lesson on the chords used by guitarist Slash. Stayed for the lesson in music theory.
  • @AndreGSilva
    The question about "Wasting advanced musician's time" remembered me of a quote I heard of some famous jazz musician (I don't quite remember who, tbh) that said, "You're not as bad as they say and you're not as good as they say". Friendly remember to keep you cool and down to earth.
  • Can we have a full song from sungazer simply called super fast Instagram Q&A
  • As someone who did not study music I'm complete and totally confused with all the information but damn it is cool to watch these videos.
  • @Doodleschmit
    The resolution from that C7 to the F9 at 6:46 makes me FEEL it. I love that sound, it just feels somber and accepting.
  • Congratulations on the hard work you put into your videos... you are really dedicated and I can feel it through everything you explain. Wish you the best in your life and career
