_ _ _ _ _ _ [A] _ _

[C] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [C] _

Alright, welcome back.
In this lesson I'm going to teach you a small funky riff for
you to practice and maybe build on for your own music.
I'm not going to use the piano
for this, although you can.
[Ab] I'm actually going to use a clavinet sound with some [A] _ _ Ottawa on
it.
So the sound is this. _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ [Am] _ _
_ _ _ _ Most keyboards have some sort of analog.
See [A] if yours has
a clavinet sound.
If not, you can play this with a piano. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Okay, let me play this slowly
[E] and then I'm going to break it down [A] into digestible parts. _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ So [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
the first chord is an A _ and _ _ _ I'm
_ [G] going to break it down into digestible parts.
So here's the first part and here's the second
part.
_ _ [A] _
So the first part is A, A, A, E, sorry E, A, _ and then back A, A.
_ _ _ So see if you can
play this smoothly. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ The second part is _ _ _ and what I'm doing here is I'm alternating between
an A in my left hand and then [G] _
D, G, _ [Am] _ _ _ E, A, [G] _ D, G, and a D.
[A] _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ [G] Putting [A] _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ these two together
I have, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ and if I play this together and _ _ gradually build up speed. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [C] _ So this is the first chord
in the progression.
_ Then I have, _ _ _ _ which is really exactly like the first _ part for the
A, this is really a C chord.
_ And I'm playing C, C, _ G, and C, [A] and then [C] go back down C and _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
then I play, _ [D] _ _ _
so after the C I play, _ _ [D] _ _
_ so D, D, _ _ _ A, D, _ [C] _ D, _ _ G, C, [D] D, and then repeat.
_ So let me play the C [Gb] and the D [C] together, _ _ [D] _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ [D] _ _ _ [Ab] _ starting slowly and building up speed, [C] _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ [C] _ [D] _ [C] _ _ _
_ [D] _ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ [C] _ _
[D] _ [C] _ _ _ [D] _ [G] _ [C] _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ and then [G] jump back to the [A] A.
_ [Dm] _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ [D] _ [C] _ _ [D] _ _ [A] _ _
_ _ [C] _ _ _ Alright, _ so that's it.
I hope you have some fun with this little riff, and I'll see you next
