@1Camilo9708 Did this video actually help? I'm curious. I made this video not knowing if anybody would glean any useful information.

[1Camilo9708]

Hey, you are really good...but can't really catch up with the video...you don't live in London do you?

[fenix9885]

@hlcor California sure is far away London. The way I learned piano was by watching tutorial videos over and over. I'd rewind it hella times before I figured it out. Just rewind it as many times as it takes and you'll get it

[jrsjokke]

Can you explain the 1B on the bottom and than the 2 notes at the top and than "BOBOOM" "BOBOOM": what do you do when you say boboom boboom?? I lost track there

[fenix9885]

@jrsjokke I play the E flat in one beat, and then play G and B flat at the same time in the other beat. I'm breaking up the E flat major chord into two beats when I play it like that. You can do that with any chord, where you break up the 3 notes by playing any note singularly on one beat and then the other 2 notes together on the next beat. You can get some pretty funky sounds if you use different inversions and different chord progressions together.

[melissagrito]

COMO SE LLAMA LA CANCIÓN?

[fenix9885]

@melissagrito It's a song I made up, I don't really have a name for it.

[kibakim]

COOL

[nachoshei]

whats song is?



[fenix9885]

@nachoshei Its just a random song I made up and decided to make a tutorial to. I don't really have a name for it.

[repiirado]

´:O so cool thanks :) if you can put the notes :)

[Addisababa1974]

Give Thanks, fenix9885!

That's really great. I will practice.



[JonPeregrino]

es que nadie compende el concepto de tutorial

[monsieurperine]

What Melodica is this?

[fenix9885]

@monsieurperine Hohner 26(27 maybe?) Its the old style, its made from metal. Much better than the plastic versions that most people have, in my opinion. They're on eBay for $50

[tesup89]

muy bueno !! from Argentina! buenas vibras!

[arlindo4630]

puto



[filmdream19]

Gracias por este video, me ayudo mucho Saludos desde Mexico!

[44almm]

this is great , thanks :)

[fenix9885]

@44almm Cool, did this video in any way give you some new ideas or teach you to play some reggae melodica? I haven't had much specific feedback from people about what in particular they liked or didnt, so I really don't know. I thought about doing more videos, but I want to test the waters first and see if it is actually helping.

[44almm]

@fenix9885 I thought the 'structure' of it was really good as in 'heres what it'll sound like' now 'heres how to play it, and how you held the melodica so we can see excatly what notes you are using. (well finger positions etc)

[fenix9885]

@44almm Nice, the way you described it is exactly the way I wanted to do it. I tried to empathize and think about how I learn songs. Having a good close up that is slowed down and clear and concise is exactly how I would learn how to play.

[kennymelodica]

WIn!!!! superb stuff man!

[fenix9885]

@kennymelodica Glad you dig it. I'm not really that good at teaching people melodica, I just tell them to listen to it and hear how I play it. I just wanted to make a video that people would actually learn from and be able to walk away and be able to play something they couldn't before. Did this video give you some new ideas about melodica or anything like that? You being a seasoned melodica player, your opinion is valued more than a brand new player
