Lesson notes

In this lesson, we’re going to continue down the rabbit hole of our C minor funk/soul groove, going beyond the basic “Red Clay” chord changes we built in our second lesson to explore some more advanced harmonic techniques. This lesson builds on the previous two Funk/Soul groove lessons, so make sure you check those out first for some harmonic foundation. We’ll check out 11 new variations that incorporate tritone substitutions, sus chords, ii-V harmonic cycles, 1/2-step approach, harmonic reductions, and more.
