36. Times Tables like you've never heard them before

Fan Mail Portal

So, 

I was feeling down on the weekend. And so I took myself on a walk. And the more I walked, the more I found myself singing the times tables to music theory. 

I can't really say how I got there, but this is where we've ended up. 

Needless to say, I felt better after the walk. So, wether it was the fresh air, or the times tables, no one can say. 

In this episode, We sing

the 3 times tables to the F Major scale. 

Ascending:

3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21

Descending

21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39

The Vague chords I'm playing are:

F | Amin | Bb | C | Dmin | Bb | Amin | F |

I know. 

Pretty weird. 

Then we sing the 

4 Times tables to the G Minor Pentatonic scale.

4 , 8, 12, 16, 20, 24

28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48

Woo!

THEN

We sing the the 6 times tables to my little Mixolydian melody I made up in 6 / 8 feel, 

and the chords are 

| A | A/G |

Mixolydian is 

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, flat 7, 8

6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36

42, 48, 54, 60, 66

"I don't know what you've been told, but I'm gonna go down, My Own road. "

I cant really say when my times tables album is coming out, but if you LOVE this, you should let me know, cause right now, I feel pretty funny funny. 

Is it ha ha funny or funny funny?

Anyhoo. 

Thanks for listening, 

you're fun.

Thats all. 

The Northern Rivers Conservatorium approached me to write a fundraising song. I found myself reflecting on my year studying there — running barefoot between classes, learning music theory and discovering my voice as a musician.
