Description: Gain creative confidence and have fun!  Learn to use the undeniable power of music theory to make better electronic music.  This course is compact and covers every single music theory fundamental in existence.  Plus, it has been designed for electronic musicians instead of academic music majors.  Don't be fooled - it doesn't take 12 hours of video lectures to learn how to build and use a major scale.  This class presents no-fuss, bite-sized videos that explain AND demonstrate each topic very clearly.  Plus, electronic music with Ableton and Push 2 is so "hands on" that you need lots and lots of hands-on demos - exactly what this course offers.  Learn the Language of Music TheoryDeveloping confidence with music theory (and using it in your electronic music) starts with a firm grasp of the fundamentals.  You'll quickly learn about major and minor scales, triads and intervals.  If you don't know what those are, you're making electronic music harder than it needs to be.  Scales, triads and intervals are the alphabet of the musical language and its hard to do much without them. So, you'll find this course is packed with condensed lessons that explain everything from half steps and whole steps to common intervals (the basis for creativity with scales and chords).  Music theory is a wide, wonderful world and you'll need to know the language if you want to succeed.Unfold Both Major and Minor Scales and ChordsSince this curriculum is intended to help electronic musicians who use Ableton and Push 2, most of the demonstrations and walkthroughs are presented directly in Ableton and/or on Push 2.  This means that learning music theory like major or minor scales and chords is different.  You'll learn the concepts in a way that makes more sense with Ableton and Push 2.  There are definitely useful aspects of traditional music theory which is why *some* lessons ALSO demonstrate triads, intervals and scales on a traditional keyboard (Novation LaunchKey 49), so you'll see
