Rick Beato - The Death of Key Changes: How Popular Music Got Boring [View all]

Great new video from Rick Beato today.

And the article he's talking about can be found here: https://tedium.co/2022/11/09/the-death-of-the-key-change/





Btw, I'm posting this in Musicians, instead of Music Appreciation (which I host), for a couple of reasons.

The first is that musicians are probably more aware of the lack of key changes in recent popular music.

The second is that the guidelines in Music Appreciation ask people to please keep criticism of a particular piece of music to themselves, since if it's at all popular, it does have fans, and I don't want those fans discouraged from posting their favorite music. Some people will post no matter how much others criticize it, but a lot of people will hesitate to post something they love if they believe others will jump in and post just to attack it.

This Musicians group seems better suited to a discussion of a major change in popular music over the decades.

Anyway, I hope you'll read that article and watch Rick's video. I'd love to hear your comments.
