can you change the key of a specific chord?

[BertKoor]

But there are shitloads of styles & genres that manage without them, and shitloads of artists having a respectable career while never touching these chords.

Preferably we want facts in the first place. This shit is useless.

You saying my facts are "alternative"

[jancivil]

Knock yourself out, you’re muted, life is far too short for useless crap afaic and it’s what you do here.
Here pro-ignorance, pointless dick move

AFAIK there are profoundly tone deaf individuals with massive hits! WHO GIVES A f**k

Many!

One example that comes to mind is the Ramones - neither the guitarist nor bass player ever successfully learned to tune their guitars, and would hand them either to a roadie or their drummer to tune them.

And @ least 3/4 of The Beatles grasped dim and aug triads well enough...
maybe Ringo as well

[Ploki]

But yes, I should have said 'practically' instead of 'basically.'
Sorry, my bad.

there's plenty of ambiguous chords tho.
What you meant is triads, but even then, augmented and diminished are not major/minor by definition.

so neither basically nor practically.
there are 4 basic diatonic triads, major, minor, augmented and diminished.
Then there are suspended triads, which are neither since they don't have a third.
also, there are nondiatonic triads, a three-tone cluster such as A Bb B is also technically a triad.

There are also bi-chords, which are stacked triads but still a single chord.

in any case... i just don't see how there's "practically only major and minor chords" in any possible interpretation.

Every bit as wrong. Basic fact wrong.

[vurt]

Basically there are only major and minor chords

Diminished? Augmented?

and "radiohead".

Well I thought that went without saying.

[vurt]

if all bands start getting their own chorfs this music lark is gonna be hard to learn!

did you just play a radiohead chord in a gsybe inspired riff? f**king idiot!

im off to out radiohead, radiohead and use all 20 in one progression.

[Forgotten]

I don’t know that they’re alone in that - I think there are a lot of artists who don’t follow conventions in construction of chords.

Lots of folk players do it, Jimi Page did, and even bands you might not imagine doing it, like Bauhaus.

[vurt]

yeah i know, was just being over dramatic!

little johnny longfingers and ed magic hands, doesnt surprise me theyre "makin shit up"

i cant think of many guitarists as experimental as them who have hit the big time. not for a good few years anyway since music was more risky in the mainstream.

im still learning "oasis chords"
total beginner

[lotus2035]

It's techno, just mash the keyboard and sidechain it with the kick

From the Ladybird Big Book of Chords I assume?
