      I just found a waifu for my birthday… LOL! Love how your mind works when it comes to music. Sadly, the thought “Please have my babies!”, kept playing on loop the more I watched you play and speak… That aside, You made me realize there are a few techniques I haven’t utilized when composing music. You’re amazing!

    Very interesting and I can see the theory and skill that goes into something like this. But to my untrained ear it just sounds unpleasant. Not that it’s not recognizable anymore (which it kinda still is), but even on its own I very much did not like it. xD

    She is very diplomatic with regards to the many possible interpretations of “complexity.” To me, this is a clear sign of wisdom. And, in case you didn’t know, not all talented musicians are wise. EXCELLENT video.

    Writers in pop music like Mariah Carey has done this in her vocal arrangements and compositions, which some call it “sound painting.”

      I think most call it embellishments and ornamentation.

    I don’t understand what she means by writting a melody upsidedown. Can someone help me understand this?

    Why does the piano sound so muted? Is it the mic set up

    Great video! Everything together sounds for me not very good. But the video demonstrate the possibilities with melodys on the piano very well. That’s just my opinion.
