Part Two of this lesson, by Ben Levin, is found here! https://youtu.be/vJCPnu1XU5E
Confused? Take my rhythm course! https://tinyurl.com/2n2jp79f
In this lesson, we learn to perform some simple exercises from Indian konnakol (vocal percussion), then make music inspired by the concept. For most Western musicians like myself, these exercises will be wildly complex and advanced, since we rarely encounter such patterns in our music. However, reductive and growing patterns are common in Indian music, and keeping track of a steady pulse beneath them is a must! By learning konnakol and practicing these patterns, you should be able to easily expand your composing possibilities and start including exotic rhythms into your own music should you wish. As youll see, these exercises easily lead into polyrhythms and polymeters of extreme complexity.

Rhythm is a HUGE part of lead playing that is often overlooked. Even simple concepts like the ones presented can be difficult for guitarists who dont train their rhythm skills. This sort of practice can unlock new feels and grooves that we wouldnt naturally fall in to, and is a great way to get out of the box rhythmically.

Riffing with Modes part 2- Dorian Dad Rock:https://youtu.be/_r6ftqp1bkA
This is the first of a seven part series on how to write riffs. Every guitarist should be able to make a decent riff, and throughout these videos, I’ll be demonstrating the strategies and techniques I use to writing music on the guitar.
Each video will focus on a different mode of major, but will not always be totally limited to that key. In the case of this video, we perform a relative modulation by resolving to the vi chord for long enough to make it feel like our new tonal center. In future videos, we’ll build on the skills we learned before and explore new possibilities.
To fully understand this video you’ll want to know the following topics-
