8MAD - Rhythmic Comping - Day 4
behng
Content type: Blog entry
In day 4, we're reverting back to the original rhythm. The difference here is closed voicings. Notice the nice crunch in the closed voicings. As with the other lessons, keep the articulation nice and short on the eighth note.

8MAD - Rhythmic Comping - Day 2

Content type: Blog entry
Day 2: The same rhythm is being used here, but the top note is being moved around. While moving the top around changes the harmony, it also gives the illusion of something different happening rhythmically.

Day 4: All the chords are in open position. Although they're in open position, you will see that some of the chords still have a lot of crunchiness. Try memorizing these voicings and maybe try them in a few different keys.
