Stuck in root position? Are your progressions problematic? Spice up your songwriting with IO's resident music theorist, Josh Wen, as he teaches you how to build better chords and compose powerful progressions. Go beyond the major scale and triads and learn how to incorporate extensions, substitutions, resolution, and more into your productions.
Basic knowledge of scales, intervals, and triads is recommended (we recommend Josh's previous course "Music Theory for Producers" which is available for purchase on our site).
This course has ended. Upon purchase, you will be sent a link to the class recordings and daily recaps from the instructor.
