The Jooba Weekly Issue #5

Añadido: 2026-05-01

[00:00:01]What's up Juble people? This is the Juble Weekly issue number five and I'm just going to demo some of the parts that we're going to learn in this issue of the Juble Weekly. Let's go.

[00:00:13]>> [music] [music] [music] [music] >> What a beautiful chord progression.

[00:00:39]We've got a music theory concept that I'm going to dive into here. Got a nice picking pattern that I saw from a video that Madison Cunningham did with Paul Davids. That was a really interesting picking pattern. I'll play it for you quickly. We're going to dive into it just now. It goes like this.

[00:01:01]>> [music] [music] >> Such a beautiful pattern. I really really dig it. It's amazing. Okay. So and then we've got a riff of the week which is going to be this one.

[00:01:38]One of the most beautiful riffs. So you can go ahead and learn that and but the thing that I really need to explain here today is um Yeah, I just want to say the community is growing really well and I'm really happy with the way it's growing. We've got over 600 members right now in the Juble people community. 600 and something I can't remember. It's crazy.

[00:01:59]One of my videos actually went viral. I did a little short video where I did the >> [music] >> that amazing riff from Damien Rice Cannonball his song and that video just blew up, you know, it's just like I mean I don't have any followers on Instagram.

[00:02:20]I just posted it on Instagram for fun and it got like uh 45,000 views already in like a few days.

[00:02:26]Um so I'm really excited about that and then on on YouTube we're also getting like a ton of that video has got over 25,000 views. It's crazy.

[00:02:35]Um it's just amazing how people just some things people really like and I mean that is an amazing riff. So Okay. So for the Juble Weekly we've got this quite interesting picking pattern and it's in a key that most acoustic players don't really like to play. You know, most acoustic players >> [music] >> will not really write a song in C minor. So this is can kind of help you get over that. So let's take the capo off. Make sure your guitar is in tune. And then we go ahead and play this chord progression. Now I'm going to zoom in you into the chords and we can start with the chord progression.

[00:03:06]Now the picking pattern, let's just quickly handle the picking pattern. So if you do a minor chord we're going to just do the picking pattern. It's P >> [music] >> P I M slap I P.

[00:03:28]>> [music] >> If you've never played a kind of a rolling pattern like rolling down the strings then this might feel a little weird but um alas, give it a shot. It's quite it's quite fun. Okay. So that's the picking pattern and then if we master that we can stick with that pattern and go into the chords. So the first chord is a C minor. Now that's actually on the third fret. I'll write that down quickly. Oh wait, you've got a C. That's wrong song.

[00:03:56]And that's third fret and that's fourth fret there.

[00:04:01]Okay.

[00:04:02]Um so we've got the C minor here.

[00:04:09]Got the G string open there which makes it get the nice [music] unison there. A flat major seven.

[00:04:17]B flat six.

[00:04:19]>> [music] >> G minor seven.

[00:04:23]And then we're [music] going to do the A flat again in the chord progression.

[00:04:28]Go to F sus two.

[00:04:29]>> [music] >> And then we've got this nice >> [music] >> G7 sus4.

[00:04:39]It's a three dominant chord leading you back into the C minor.

[00:04:44]Then you can play the whole progression like it's written there. And now I just quickly want to explain to you what these things mean.

[00:04:51]So here we've got T for tonic SD for subdominant and D for dominant. So just to show you how the music moves and this is actually a music theory idea. Now one and six chords in the key of C that would be C and A minor. In the key of C minor that's going to be C minor and the E flat are the tonics of the key. So that's the stable home kind of resolved sound. And then we have the subdominant so we can group all chords into one of these three categories. The four and the two are in the subdominant and I sometimes think of the seven as a subdominant. I'll explain that now. And then the dominant chords are the five and the three. Sometimes the seven, sometimes the three. Okay. So here you see the three can also be the tonic depending on how it's used and the seven can also be dominant depending on how it's used. Okay. Now that means if I'm writing down chord progressions like this a simple chord progression in the key of C here.

[00:05:48]Okay.

[00:05:49]The A minor is the tonic. Now you can hear that.

[00:05:53]Nice and stable [music] going to the subdominant. That's just like going out to the garden and then the G [music] like I'm ringing the doorbell. I want to go inside back to the tonic. So each one has a specific flavor. Tonic [music] subdominant D minor F still a subdominant going to a dominant [music] G.

[00:06:21]A minor.

[00:06:22]I just did a more dominant one, the E the three chord. So that leads me back to the six.

[00:06:29]So you can see how each the tonic, subdominant and dominant all have different flavors and different um levels of momentum if you want to say.

[00:06:40]So for instance the the tonic is where stable. The subdominant is we're kind of going somewhere but we're not as we're not in in second gear, you know, we're still like just cruising. And then dominant is like okay, something's going to happen, you know, we're going to take it down. And then if you take the dominant usually wants to go back into the tonic. But if you have a like a deceptive cadence you play the dominant and then you go back into the subdominant. And then you can kind of play around with these for a while but your ear eventually wants to go back home. Okay. So for instance let's take another chord progression that's a little bit longer.

[00:07:16]I just want to explain it. So I'm going to hang around in the tonic.

[00:07:23]>> [music] >> I'm just hanging around in the [singing] tonic.

[00:07:27]It's still and the moment I want some momentum >> [music and singing] >> I go to the subdominant.

[00:07:33]I go to the dominant.

[00:07:37]And that takes me back home.

[00:07:39]>> [music] >> And then I can't end there on the G. I have to go back to the tonic. [music] >> [music] >> Subdominant.

[00:07:55]F dominant.

[00:07:59]>> [music] >> Back to the dominant.

[00:08:04]You hear the flavor difference and the challenge here is to write down three chord progressions and then categorize them based on the flow. Like write each this section of the chord progression is tonic, that section is dominant. You get what I mean. Okay. Picking pattern of the week. I'm not going to get into that. I've kind of scheduled my things a bit bad so I don't have a lot of time left on this live stream. But I just quickly want to show you this picking pattern. It is so beautiful. I'm going to release a short with this. Let's just take an E minor chord on with capo on the fourth fret.

[00:08:37]I'm going to show you this.

[00:08:56]>> [music] >> So beautiful. You can also play it slow and it still works.

[00:09:19]Very beautiful. A big workout. Riff of the week. I'm not going to go into that.

[00:09:23]You can check my tutorial but just a real quick it's going to be that's the pattern there you see on the right hand side.

[00:09:32]>> [music] >> And you put the pinky down here.

[00:09:39]>> [music] >> B minor.

[00:09:45]And that pinch [music] on the C is on the fifth string and A string.

[00:09:54]>> [music] >> That's how the rest of the song goes, but um I'll put a link in the Jingle Weekly where you can go check out that song cuz that's a very beautiful song and I did a full tutorial on that with a full PDF which looks like this.

[00:10:15]Okay, guys. I've come to the end of this. Any questions? I'm not going to react to any of the Jingle Weekly submissions cuz we've only had two this week. So, I'm just going to basically end the stream here and just say, "Thanks for watching my videos. I really appreciate appreciate you guys." And if you're not a member yet, go be a member.

[00:10:30]It's very cheap and it's a lot of fun.

[00:10:32]And I'll see you on the other side.

[00:10:44]>> [music] >> Subdominant, dominant.

[00:10:49]Tonic.

[00:10:52]>> [music] >> Subdominant.

[00:10:59]Tonic.

[00:11:00]>> [music] >> Tonic.

[00:11:04]Dominant.

[00:11:10]Ew, that's bad. Tonic.

[00:11:21]>> [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] [music] >> Anyway.

[00:12:10]Okay, goodbye, guys. Have a nice day.
