Hello!
I have period on my hobby's life (music of course) when I paused to spend money on macbook, logic 8 and midi controller (technical side in less words) and started to really learn music theory couse there is no need for fancy toys without knowledge how to make an artistic, expressive input to them right?
So i read Complete Idiots Guide to Music Theory. And i didnt throw it into bookshelf- its still open near my keyboard That book helped a lot, now i know what keys to trigger over my simple 3 note melodies i made before and they sound better. Not that they will catch anyones attention like hits but at least they sound like music. Well kinda music..
Anyways- so far so good. Now i want to train my ears, train pitch and intervals. There is a CD with the theory book but i learned notes by order in exercises faster than by pitch So my first question is- is there any good ear training exercises that really helped YOU in the internet for free?
To kindly ask my other questions i will give a easy listenable song on youtube. The melody is simple, the number of instruments in it is easy countable with one hand with a cellphone in it
The song is F--k You by Dr. Dre
I played around my piano and i think found a notes for its main melody. Correct me if theyr wrong:
F# E F# E G F# G E F#
Did i find them or they not even close? :
How long does it take you to find a notes for such a simple melody? Can you name them by ear or do you play on piano untill it outputs the same pitch?
Thanks a lot for any answers
P.S - Sorry about very haotic writing style- english is not my mothers language, its not easy for me to make complex sentences
