Are you stuck with a creative beat block and feel like your chords boring and repetitive? This video is a major music theory unlock to breaking free from boring chord progressions and making your session feel fresh.

In this video, Julie Schatz, a producer, dj, singer/songwriter, pianist and violinist demonstrates how removing the one (or “I”) out of a common I-vi-IV-V or 1-IV-vi-V, chord progression can make the track sound unique and give it an unexpected depth of emotion. Many hit tracks across pop music use this trick like “Diamonds” – Rihanna, “Tik Tok”- Kesha, and “Someday” – Sonny Fodera.

This method works in any genre and Julie uses some of Arturia’s amazing plugin synths from the Arturia V Collection like the Emulater II V, Jup-8000, and the new Pure Lofi to demonstrate these chords on gorgeous vintage synths. So dive into this video and incorporate some new chord arrangements into your next track.
