The Infinte Chord Guru!

Writer's Block? What's that?

There is a way to escape the occassional episodes of writer's block or rehashing the same old thing over and over. It is by increasing our Scale and Chord vocabulary. The more Scales and Chords we are aware of, the more opportunities we can see.

Over the years I have collected Scales, Chords, and Chord Progressions as a way to increase my Scale and Chord vocabulary. This was a slow path of trial and error. But as I collected Scales and Chords I began to organize them into a very unique database.

I have harmonized 99 World Scales by identifying Chords that are members of each Scale. This database is written in 100% HTML and the user can explore it exactly the same way we explore internet websites.

You can select a Scale and a Root and you will see a page that shows all Chords that are members of the Scale and Root you selected. You can also select a Chord Type and Root to see how to play the Chord on the keyboard and you can see all Scales that parent the selected Chord. It is a complete forward and reverse lookup feature that enables you to instantly see relationships between Chords and Scales.

You can find this special CD-ROM database here: The Infinite Chord Guru!

If you have been trying to learn to play chords on the piano or synthesizer one-song-at-a-time, this special 200 MB database can immediately open musical doors for you to freely explore!

It contains Scale and Chord charts for the Piano and MIDI Samples so you can hear how each Scale and Chord sounds before you attempt to play them yourself.
