Here's a brief snippet of me playing around a popular Hymn "I Surrender All"... some of y'all must have list ended to it already. http://www.hulkshare.com/mobile/index.php#goddysweb/i-surrender-g-hillary

Dramadiddy: Nice one bro...thanks for taking time out to explain...I appreciate

you're welcome.

If you listen to music, you’ve definitely heard a
“2-5-1″ progression. They are found in just about
any type of music — regardless of style, genre, or
rhythmical pattern. It is commonly the series of
chords that end a song or phrase. However, it can
be used in several situations (I can only go over a
few in this lesson but encourage you to check out
my course for further instruction).

In this chord progression, the 2 chord (you’ll learn
what this is later on in this lesson) leads to the 5
chord which in turns, produces a strong pull
towards the ending chord (which is usually the
1st major chord of the scale).

First, let me start by showing you what chords
correspond to each tone of a major scale:

1 tone – Major
2 tone – Minor
3 tone – Minor
4 tone – Major
5 tone – Major (dominant)
6 tone – Minor
7 tone – Half Diminished

To understand the chart above, you must
understand that each tone of a major scale has a
chord which goes along with it. For example, the
following is a

C major scale:
(C — D — E — F — G — A — B — C)

Each tone above has a matching chord. Simply
add the endings of the chart above to the scale
as shown below:

>C MAJORD MINORE MINORF MAJORG MAJOR /
DOMA MINORB HALF-DIMINISHED<

To further understand progressions, lets number
each chord:

1 = C major
2 = D minor
3 = E minor
4 = F major
5 = G dominant
6 = A minor
7 = B half – diminished
8 = C major

Now, to create a “2-5-1″ chord progression (or
any numbered chord progression), simply take the
2, 5, and 1 chord out of the entire series of
chords above. That is, we would not use the 3,4,
6, or 7 chord.

The 2 chord is D minor; the 5 chord is G
dominant; and the 1 chord is C major.

This right here is the most basic “2-5-1″ chord
progression you’ll ever see:

Dmin — Gdom — Cmaj
min = minor
dom = dominant
maj = major

REFERENCE 1A:
D minor chord = (D) + (F) + (A)
G dominant chord = (G) + (B) + (D) + (F)
C major chord = (C) + (E) + (G)
Example: To play a Dminor chord simply play all
three of the notes shown above at the same time
(D+F+A)

Moving on…

Now that we have covered some theory (I’m glad
that’s out of the way), let me just show you a
few chords that I love to play. I will try not to be
as theoretic … I will simply give you the chord
changes and you’ll have to apply them to your
understanding of chords and alterations. All of
these progression will be shown in the key of C
major…

1) “Churchy 2-5-1 Chord Progression”

Style #1
D7 (b9) — G13 —- Cmaj
(pronounced “D seven, flat nine —– G thirteenth — C major”) D7 (b9) =
Bass * Play “D” ——— F# + A + C + D#
G13 = Bass * Play “G” ———- F + A + C + E
Cmaj = Bass * Play “C” ———– E + G + C (1st
inversion)

Example: For D7 (b9), we would play F# + A + C
+ D# with “D” on the bass (left hand).
Inversion just refers to the way the chord is
played. Since “C” is the highest note, it is said to
be played in its “first inversion”
Note: I love playing this chord progression in
gospel music. You try playing it and let me know
what you come up with!

2) “Churchy 2-5-1 Chord Progression” Style #2
For this progression, every chord will be the same
except for the D7 (b9). We will simply play a
regular D9 chord.
D9 = F# + A + C + “E” (not D#)

Notice: The only difference in a D9 and a D7 (b9)
is the difference in the “ninth” tone. Since we are
not flatting the 9th tone, we use “E” instead of
“D#.”

D9 = Bass * Play “D” ——— F# + A + C + E
G13 = Bass * Play “G” ———- F + A + C + E
Cmaj = Bass * Play “C” ———– E + G + C

3). “Contemporary 2-5-1 Chord Progression”
Style #1
For this progression, we are going to use:

D9 add 6 —> G13 —> Cmaj
D9 add 6 = Bass * Play “D” ——— F# + B + C + E
G13 = Bass * Play “G” ———- F + A + C + E
Cmaj = Bass * Play “C” ———– E + G + C

4.) “Contemporary 2-5-1 Chord Progression”
Style #2
This progression will follow the same exact
pattern as #3 with the following chord alteration:

D9 b5 —> G13 —-> Cmaj
*** You are going to have to extend your fingers
for this one!

D9 b5 = Bass * Play “D” ——— F# + B + C + E +
A#
G13 = Bass * Play “G” ———- F + A + C + E
Cmaj = Bass * Play “C” ———– E + G + C
Well, that’s it for this lesson. See ya next time!

Guys, please I have an issue here. my tecno n3 now shows "error" if I try to switch ON wifi and hotspot. please, what could be the problem? how do I fix it plzzz? I need help abeg....thanks soo much

veektorh: pls tell me how u did urs.. myn isnt working out.

I dowloaded the apk file ( http://filesear.com/files/7/djbxqpssejp44u/PES-2012-Pro-Evolution-Soccer-v1.0.5.apk ) and also downloaded the data file ( http://filesear.com/tjr9r5iu1p3s/PES-2012-Pro-Evolution-Soccer-v1.0.5data.rar )
. After doing that, I used my PC to extract the data file to SD/Android/Obb then I installed the APK file. I made sure my Internet was on (you must have atleast 1MB) , then launched PES 2012, it requested for license verification, I verified via internet, then after veridication, I launched the game again...not upto ten seconds, I saw "Installing..." and that was it. Thank you

hakunajay: because playstore has over 500k apps does not mean u should accumulate all on ur phone. Install the apps u actually need, make backups of those u dont use daily so that u will have their .apks, delete those apps u dnt use and install frm backup if u need it in future. this helps resolve low memory issues to an extent and save u some data since u dont have to download again. No need keeping plenty apps u dont have the need for, its a phone by the way and not museum....

My brother, please I own a Tecno N3. Can you throw more lights on how we can backup our apps? Do we need an application to do that? Please help...thanks

luluosas: No party is over. I just watch cartoon on TVC just now. Thank you.

TV? Please what's the name of the TV software you're using, and where can I download it from?

Thank you

9free: YES!

Thanks bro, it worked like magic. finally finally...

Nellofficial: Download the data file => http://filesear.com/tjr9r5iu1p3s/PES-2012-Pro-Evolution-Soccer-v1.0.5data.rar

Please, must I root my phone before I'll be able to run this PES 2012 without requesting for 180MB additional data after moving data files to SD/android/obb ?

goddysweb: Can anyone tell me how to play PES 2012
I moved the data PES2012 to /sdcard/android/data/
com.konami.pes2012
but, The pes keep need download data 180 mb

plzzzzz someone should give a helping hand on this one naaa, plzzz

luluosas: Well, thank God is now working but, I am browsing even with N3 in my account. Thank you.
