The games

Learn by playing.

Practice every chord and scale through games — here's a look at three.

CHORD JUMP
in A minor
Chord Jump — read the chord, play it to leap up the in-key climb.
CASCADE
play to clear
Cascade — chord-blocks fall; play the chord to break each one.
CHORD DASH
keep it running
Chord Dash — the blob runs; play each chord to clear the blocks ahead.
The map

See why notes fit.

Theory starts as a picture, not a list to memorize. Seven notes are inside the key — they fit. The rest are outside. Spot the one that doesn't belong.

Which note is not in C major?
Tap a note.
1 · 3 · 5 · 7

Turn a scale into chords.

A chord is just a starting number plus every-other note. Take one more every-other note — four notes now — and you get a lush 7th chord: the sound behind a lot of jazzy, soulful pop. Same rule, any starting point.

The cheat code

One pattern. Every key.

Names change. The pattern does not. The Roman numerals and the major/minor shape stay locked — only the chord names slide. Learn it once, play it in all twelve.

Key of C major
Start simple. Go deep.

Four plain chords. Then make them yours.

The same progression carries jazz, gospel, and neo-soul once you know the moves. Tap one — hear the color change and read why it works.

Start with C → F → G → C, then add a move.
