yes! So I think Jordan might teach it slightly differently to Stephon (I think Jordan is finding a way to make it super accessible for guitar), but the basic principles are the same. It’s really a...
I’m the opposite. Some live in beautiful places, but their narcissism is hard to deal with. ;-)
Good stuff, very thoughtful, I've been down this road for the last 10 years or so, creating progressions with colouful chord voicings and playing over them with scales, with as you stated "fewer...

Not that I think avoid note theory as presented in nettles and Graf has much to do with reality. The correct avoids notes for Cmaj7 are given by E phrygian, not C ionian for example imo…. C is highly...
