Cassette tapes have side A and side B… … so it’s only logical their successor would be the CD.

The bizarre process you give at the beginning is entirely incorrect. Producers don't "come up with tunes", then send them out to songwriters to solicit well...I guess a response? That couldn't be more wrong.

what is 6 half steps called

I had read an article that has maybe a bit difference, so according to that article: the tone is what you play on an instrument ("singing/ playing=tone).. the pitch is that sound traveling to your ears (hearing=pitch).. and the note is when you write that sound (note=writing that sound).

Rhe only reason notes and frequencies are not the same is because instrument tuning is completely arbitrary, and A4 has been dedined as everything from 417Hz to 466Hz.

I'm still sipping from the firehose of music theory, but your explanation of the Circle of Fifths is the first that I have mostly understood.

Thankyou so much for explaining this, I am new to Music ☺

outstanding video

I used your videos as a reference for my presentation at the university. you explain everything so simple that everyone can understand it even if they know nothing about music theory keep up the good work and thank you for your videos

I think a tone is a note spelled different way. :) Kidding aside, thanks for clarifying the differences.

Great video! Thank you!

For me it's not about sound or aesthetic. It's about just being able to hold the albums I love in my hands and listen to them off the physical albums when I'm in the mood to. Just feeling closer to the music that I love. But sound? I'm not an audiophile at all, I don't really care. I just love music and I appreciate the difference in audio quality, to me there is no "better" or "worse" sound quality. It's all great for different reasons. And the aesthetic? I mean... sure I love looking at them but literally nobody I know in person likes my music, so it's not going to spark any conversations.

Very effective! Thank You! Thanks once again!

Great coverage of theories. I would postulate that chills are one particular emotional state of many that are invoked by the right music for a particular person. The closest I get to this is an intense emotional state evoked by music that accompanies a scene in an Apollo 11 launch sequence in a documentary I watch. It's not chills, but its arguably the same thing happening - an intense takeover of the brain by the emotional system. In this case, triumph of human engineering over the physical dangers involved. My non-chills, intense emotion, I would assume happens to focus all the brain's resources on something, someone, or some cultural goals. Very interesting stuff to think about !

Excellent! Found this right after watching your video on tone, pitch, and notes. This one is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much for all the work put into producing these. They are pure gold. (P.S. I found the playlist too, so I can learn more ! 🙂)

Everything about this video is excellent. From the delivery (not too fast or slow), to the amazing amount of effort put into the graphics, and of course to the content itself. Thank you so much for all your work ! I'm an engineer, but have a little background in music. I searched for "tone" as in tone-semitone and found your video. Will watch more of them for sure. Hoping to learn why western music adopted tone, tone, semitone, tone, tone, tone, semitone. Must have to do with harmonics and where they fall in higher octaves I'm guessing?

أنا عربي أحب علم الموسيقى، واستفدت جدددددداً من فيديوهاتك❤❤❤

love your video, definitely the best explanation ever with visuals! but can you expand on how to focus or find listen for the pitch. I feel the "not overtone" lol is louder or just too much distraction that I can't pick out the pitch.

Your channel is a goldmine. Thank You!

Thanks

My mom used to have Vinyls, Mixtape with cassette, CD and then Digital with iTunes and Streaming on Spotify. Honestly, i think any of their mediums have their pros and cons. Like sure they do have their high quality. Thats not really what i see about it beside when people thought about Tapes. But like when it comes to stuff with skipping, worn out, dirty or dusty or even scratches in any Format. Thats not much new. Since any of the format had the case. When i think of vinyl, i prefer more the vibe to listen it. Not mainly of Warmer sound, but listening all tracks in whole Album. The most part what really annoys me is the static build up, and there‘s many methods to use which is better or not. Sure a brush is enough but most of the case when i played any Vinyls from my mom, its still sounds distorted. And i still use new stock Elliptical stylus. Mostly due to inner sleeve made out of paper. And many Vinyls even to this day still uses, which is very questionable to me. But atleast few accessories exist to buy, but Vinyl is pricey tho, even old vinyls Cassette is much a whole mixed bag. I like Cassette deck and experience with Mixtapes. Those are fun to do, but its mainly about correct playback and fitting prerecorded tapes. Because High Quality Decks and even Decks are not all equally produced. And thats when many people talk much about NR, Feature, Sound quality to Tapes and how the Deck would perform to cassettes. To me there some good and bad prerecorded cassettes, even blank tapes such as RTM is still producing it, sure its Type 1 but aslong as you had a deck with Bias or auto Cal, and using Dolby C. Then you listen a very good sound. It all matters about a good gear and how the Cassettes are recorded and encoded. With new Cassette release, it doesnt feel the same to me how old prerecorded Tape was produced, mainly of encoded NR and Chrome type. Sure Dolby NR licensing is gone, but to me. It doesnt feel the same to me. So i‘ll recommend making Mixtapes with new music in it. (And i got few prerecorded tapes that are over 40 years old, and they still sound good. It could be the case to the material how they are produced but not any case, otherwise if the Azimuth tapehead is mislinged) CD was the era when i was born. CD is simpler and vastly way used. And i get why people prefer CD due to its use for Digitalization. But nowadays, i barely buy CD for exclusives Album when they are only released in CD. Which not all format are all released. I dont really listen CDs, i‘ll rather buy CD mostly if it doesnt include any of it. I dont have much experience about 8 Track cassette. Because we never used it. To my thing, i just buy physical music format what i like to prefer. Sometimes vinyl, tape or even CD. I mostly listen Spotify and if i feel like i need it physically. Then i buy it. Thats how i prefer to do.

Big fan of your content, good to see you're still making videos

While I'm not an authority, I'm certain they had American tape recorders from about 1930 on, when they made all the bugs bunny cartoons. Tape recorders came along at the same time as talking movies

I'm so happy you chose to analyze this song. This was the track that really got me into her as an artist and it was mainly due the lyriscism. I was blown away by the honesty, self awarness and overall picture she created of the sun setting and being cast in her ex lovers elongated shadow as he walks away all while metcontextually refering to her emotional state. Particularly "the sky above ablaze that only lovers see" paints such a rich picture physically and emotionally. I still listen to this song on repeat. It makes my spotify top 5 every year and I don't anticipate that changing anytime soon.

appears you have never worked in the "music business". please cease and desist these posts! LOL!

This is an excellent video; well done.

I don't often get chills from music but when I do it's most commonly triggered by opera.

This is everything! Beautiful work

all these artist that you'e featured--Yes I know half of them- they're quite lame I have re-arrange their talent[?] and question any fame

Your music gives me a thrill but your music wont pay your bills...Now give me money that's what I want.......

Hi Music Theories, quick question... when you're showing the intervals from the root note C, you follow each note in order and call it minor 2nd to major 2nd to minor 3rd to major 3rd etc, but after the perfect fourth, which is the note F, you jump directly to G for the perfect fifth. Although you mention that G has indeed 7 half steps. Can you explain why F# isn't the perfect fifth and also what interval is F# in this case. Just started out music theory, loving the series so far. Thank you!

congradulations after viewing about 15 explanations of the circle of 5th your is the first that is correct , people talk about the circle of 4ths or needing to memorize to make the chart or c g d a e b is random ?. I keep a copy handy as a composer so I know i can make any chord major or minor upto the 13th at a glance with the chart . You won't beleive what I heard about the circle of 5th on line Great work here

CDs, Digital Downloads, and Streaming even are even victims of what is called overcompression aka the loudness war

This was great. I am doing an arrangement of After the Ball right now😊

Very helpful! Thanks for breaking it down!

Thanks for breaking this down, I've gained a much better understanding of music theory and I now recognize the value of learning theses concepts even late in my musical journey :D

I'm afraid you made a mistake where the chord is concerned, as chords are two notes or more, not three. Julie Gill, Glasgow, Scotland.

Music Theories, I loved this video so much, I had to hit the like button!

I want to become a musisican and this channel is AMAZING, you deserve millions of views and millions of subs, thank you and keep up videos like this, sooo informative and intresting

Loved how you explained. I was watching walter lewin's class and learned it in a hard way I wish he had involved music this way . Can you make a long video essay on TIMBRE ?

Hans Zimmer is most likely the MEC induction master

im also an artist(not only) and im not and never sigend anywere ! this video is a social engineering and mind set,its made to trick & fool authority by the image of the pepole.

It's not that complicated. A note is seen. A tone is heard. The performer reads the note then plays or sings the tone. The pitch determines which tone is sung or played.

Thanks a lot! I am new to music, very helpful videos you have :)

thanks for the explanation , actually I thought Locrian mode is so cool and also C flat Major I know they aren't common but all modes got "something" and combine them also is kinda cool , I'm just a experimental musician and always testing an learning techniques , even if only like by myself lol , and again thank you for sharing amazing video

I thought I understood modes but I only had the bare bones basics. Thanks for a thorough explanation. I've got a lot of studying to do!

An excellent presentation of this topic!

the thumbnail lol

I buy vinyls because they are a doomsday proof device to play music with just rotation and leaning in. But I couldn’t resist also getting a cassette from one of my favorite bands because it was nostalgic and cheap 🎉
