Hmm. Playing C-F#-C-F#-C-F#-C-F#

[Martin]

sounds like some kind of interlude music.

 

[KillerCharlie]

uh huh

 

[ed21x]

either an augmented fourth or a diminished 5th, forgot the terminology. What an ugly interval 😛

Huh. Yes, there is plenty of dissonance there.

FREEBIRD!

Cool story, brah!

I don't know the first (technical) thing about music.

Sheet music is especially mystifying to me.

ugly interval yes. One that is not found in either the minor or major scale deriving from C

However, the same interval can be found in the major C scale, if you start from the seventh (one half step diminished from C) which provides a 7th and 4th harmony.

It's only "ugly" until it's resolved 😉

well, yea, if it's used specifically to create tension, then the realignment of more pleasing harmony would create a nice sense of dissonance and relief.

It could also be used briefly as a passing tone, such as in a chromatic walk up or down the scale. Preferably played during a relatively fast series of notes so that the ugly tone isn't as evident.

The combo causes tension. I added an Am to it and it seems to resolve into a moody Pink Floydish melody.

I already knew I knew nothing about music and this thread merely confirms the matter.

Martin, can I have your Martin? 😉 :heart: Playing the new PRS as I type this. 😀

Since when is (5/9)*(Tf-32) or (9/5)*Tc+32 a game that you can play?
