    This I think is a great example of epic duo doing harmony

    Yeah, S&G made some of the most powerful music ever, those vocal harmonies are just godly.

    A nerdy detail in this Fleet Foxes song at 2:25-ish. All the vocals in the middle part of the track is in harmony, except for in the line "Why should I wait for anyone else" where the word "for" is sung in unison. It really fucking jumps out at you for that half second, great contrast in the arrangement.

    i think it's kinda weird how people here don't seem to care much about harmony.

    That's pretty funny coming from you. The last time I tried to discuss harmony in moderately theoretical terms on here, you replied with a half assed meme to the effect that music theory is a fool's errand, directly discouraging me from any further explorations. Just can't be bothered with your posting style - the melody thread is another example.

    This thread is good for all the Alcofribas posts, though. ?

    The bass goes like this: 

    F0, F0, F1, F0, F0, F1, F0, F0, F1
    D0, D0, G0, G1, G0, G0,G0, A0, A1, A0, A0, A1
    E0, E0, E1, E0, E0, E0 

    Then It repeats.. Arpeggio In F, D and E (Numbers after letters is OCTAVE)

    How can I play along with melodies? Should I do it in major or minor? 
     

    If you're in a diatonic key (seven notes, equally distributed) the bass line implies you're in F major, assuming you're starting conventionally at the tonal centre. The available chords would be F, G minor, A minor, Bb, C, D minor, E diminished.

    The chords F, D minor, G, A minor, C should probably give a conventional sounding result on top of your bass line.

    I watched a YouTube musician lately that was saying he didn't think theory mattered much in techno because even if your off key a bit, the repetition of the notes will trick your brain into thinking it's correct. 

    Funny how he has to resort to theory to make the argument that theory isn't always important. ?
