Giannakopoulos: I never said anything about all "chords" having tritone,re read my posts,I only cautioned you of using chords to form tritone,I only talked about all "degrees" having tritone and that tritones are built from "scales",please take note & I don't expect you to be angry for nothing. You said so...not saying tritone...but "3 and b7", you said theres no chord that doesnt have it and I shocked you to say, not every chord has a tritone..and youre nt even supposed to be referring to degrees having tritone, its the chord that has the tritone "in it" not the degree...and what tritones are built from scales?...well you said you understand everything i wrote...if you dont ask not that you just say i mislead...i thought about what i wrote and if m nt sure i ld just back off |

How to form chords!!!!!
In harmony, we get to learn about chords, in chords we get to learn about their extensions and alterations. First you have to understand the numbering system :
C-1, D-2, E-3, F-4, G-5, A-6, B-7, C-8 Now having knowing this, it is also important to note that, an extension goes beyond the major scale. That would mean if I continue counting, I'll have C-8, D-9, E-10, F-11, etc. In formation of chords, you have to know your sevenths, maj7, min7, dom7 and so on..you cannot have extended chords without sevenths. Having said that, there are terms (tensions and alterations) as their names imply, tensions are sounds that demand resolution, alterations are just the twisting of tensions. Now there are only 3 tensions : 9 11 13
And 6 alterations : b9, #9,#11, b5,#5,b13
Now you might be wondering how does this apply to making up chords. Let me draw your attention back to the the major scale, I'm gonna represent all the alterations and tensions with their equivalent notes.
C-1, D-2, E-3, F-4, G-5, A-6, B-7, C-8, Db-b9, D-9, Eb-#9, F-11, F#-#11/b5, G#-#5, A-13. (Note that #5,b5 are special alterations, can be used anywhere)
Now once you have understood all these, all you have to do is play the "permutation and combination" game. Lets take a maj7 for example, try adding all the possible 9's and the special alterations...err lets see, We'll have maj9, majb9, maj#9,maj9#5,majb9#5, maj#9#5,maj9b5,majb9b5, maj#9b5, etc...Woooww I just formed 9 chords in secondsss!!!...all im just doing is rearranging all the tensions and alterations..and definitely they are gonna give me different sounds...you can try the same with dominant chords, minor and others, pls feel free to ask any questions |

Giannakopoulos: Don't upload a tutorial bc u don't seem to understand it,the way u r thinking is different from mine,I understand everything you are writing well,I never asked or said all crazy sounds are tritone,and mind you,a 1 and aug4 is d same as (3 and dom7) of a particular key,in ur first chord u had a 3rd and dom7 of the key of D(Gb-C),but in your second chord,there's no combination that can give u a 3rd and dom7th of any key,ie why u can't have a tritone there,not every chord has a tritone(everybody understands that,and its weird to think of forming tritone after you must have formed the chord) your thinking is different from mine & ie why you run into problems. Let d case rest, @Gameboi pls can u answer the initial question bc @dramadidy isn't getting the initial question I asked instead he wants to lecture me on sth I knew already and didn't ask for...**smile** Lol...you have to change the way you think though..lol so now you understand why not every chord has a tritone, but in your former post, you were sooooo sure that no chord doesnt have a tritone, lol now youre here saying everybody understand..I'm done answering you, not that I'm angry but you don't seem to understand so go and meet someone that will make you understand the same thing I said  |

Giannakopoulos: tritones are formed out of scales of the key u r playing and not out of the chord you are playing,your statement is somewhat misleading,how can u form tritone out of a chord,you can only do that when the chord has a 3rd and a dom7 in it. Can u write out a tritone that has no 3rd n dom7 for me,there isn't,there are 6 tritones ie 2keys can share the same tritone like B & F,F# & C etc,never try forming tritone out of a chord that has no 3rd n 7th bc that wouldn't be called a tritone & ie y u r saying some chords lack tritone(which I would want u to explain what u mean by this) okay...now your definition of tritone is slightly wrong...a tritone is formed by the 1 and an augmented fourth...now, that being established...there are a lot of chords in music..these chords...can be broken down and rearranged to produce different sounds...now we r gonna take the chord min9b5..on C...if we r to play this chord in its default position, it is C Eb G Bb D Gb...now notice that this is a minor chord...but the notes of this chord can be joined together to form different things out of which I took Gb and C(which is a tritone)...from Gb to C is an augmented fourth interval...now i'll show you another chord which doesnt have a tritone in it...lets take min11...im using minors cos all dominants have a tritone cos of the 3 and b7...now back to min11...on C, a min11 is C Eb G Bb D F...now look at the notes of this chord and see if you can get any augmented fourth in it...no!...thats just how it is..u cant force this min11 to have a tritone,although it has a crazy sound...not all crazy sounds are tritones...if u study chords u ll understand...I guess i ll upload a tutorial on how to form chords and u can take it from there..hope u get me now |

Did u do the calculation, if you can sell 250mb for 200naira, then 1gig should be 800naira or less becos if i'm to buy 1gig from you i wil rather buy 250mb 4time which wil equal 1gig for 800naira....wise up pls lol u funny u don calc everytin down already |

Giannakopoulos: Then you didn't get my question well,but I guess you really need to understand what a tritone is,every degree has a tritone,I wouldn't go further bc u didn't seem to get the question well,any other person in the forum can try answering... every degree not every chord hope u read what i wrote nt just skimming |

Music/Radio › Re: A Thread For Keyboardists by Dramadiddy(op): 9:17pm On Oct 10, 2014 |
Giannakopoulos: (1)Have you tried this on key of C while moving from III-VI chord,you play Bdim-(Emin#5#9)-F#dim7-G#dim7-(Amin7), F# & G#dim7 are accidental passing chords.(2)Apart from using dim & tritones as passing chords,can one replace them for the main chords,for instance,instead of playing G major(G-D-G//G-B-D) one substitute for its tritone(F-B//E-A-C#) or (F-B//A-D-F#) as the case may be(ie LH//RH).(3) what makes a chord have a dissonant sound for instance,the chord I'm should stay on is G(ie "soh" for key C) but I hear a dissonant,weird sound coming out instead of the very common,harmonious sound we use to hear,what do you think the keyboardist added to the chord to make it dissonant,& please don't tell he added a dom7 or maj7 bc I may not agree,I hope you understand my contributions as well as questions. Ur second question...yes...but that wud not apply to dim chords...no matter the degree you place dem on...tritone, well it can work on the 1 well, if you place it on another degree...it would demand resolution...same applies to dim chords...abt the dissonance...u shd understand dt its the alteration of ttensions that cause the dissonance...now at first i used to think that the way to form a tritone out of any chord wud be to use the formula 3 b7//the major chord or whatever chord u intended forming...but later on..i learnt that...not every chord has a tritone in it...u knw a tritone is 1-#4/b5...if you know hw chords r formed u will knw dat nt every chord has a tritone in it...he might have added another chord entirely that has a tritone...if u had a voice note, i wud have helped u out |

Career › Labour Unions Condemn Casualisation Of Workers By Chinese Firm by Dramadiddy(op): 7:21pm On Oct 07, 2014 |
Labour unions in the country have condemned in strong term the casualisation of workers especially in Chinese companies situated in Lagos. The reaction was sequel to the protest made by youths working with Linda Manufacturing Company, producer of hair attachment. President, National Union of Textile Garment Workers of Nigeria, Comrade Oladele Hunsu who frowned at casualisation, urged the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) to set up a committee to prevail over the matter. “As far as I am concern, it is one of the problems we are battling with in the labour sector except textile industry”, he said. Also, Trade Union Congress (TUC) boss, Bobboi Bala Kaigama described casualisation as a serious issue, saying they have met with the Chinese embassy in Nigeria. It would be recalled that some factory workers in Lagos embarked on a peaceful protest alleging exploitation by their employer which they claimed, led to the death of their colleague. The workers of the Linda Manufacturing Company, Agege, producers of E- xpression hair `attachment’, protested to the Lagos State House of Assembly over alleged poor condition of service. The workers claimed that one of their colleague, Mr Nnamdi Solomon, died due to maltreatment by the firm owned by Chinese. The Leader of the protesters, Mr Vincent Victor, said: “Solomon went to complain to the management that he had stomach pains but he was not allowed to go home until the closing hour which led to his death because of the severe pain. |
