Some serious Pop-Piano riffin’ going on in Sam’s new tune. 

Pretty easy to grasp (I hope) whilst VERY illustrative to show how to turn a few simple (but nice ‘eh?) chords into an actual piano part. In other words: how to play Pop-Piano: using chords and patterns, sound cool without limitations and play with heart, soul and ears. Easy does it, as this song shows once again.

I’m busy on building the new website so I won’t spill too many ‘a words here. A tiny bit of updating on the Piano Couture renewal status:

New website release is now officially due December 11th. It will hold a lot of goodies.

Also, very exciting, ‘Hack the Piano‘ is due for release as an official (E)book (updated and improved) at that same date! Please LIKE this official Facebook page to stay informed: https://www.facebook.com/hackthepiano

I’m Not the Only One.

For this tutorial I added the beat again for you to practice with. A little ‘foretaste’ for all that is new and is comin’ atcha in the near future, for this will become one of the regular new ‘features’ of Piano Couture tutorials (where applicable).

HALFtime beat (to practice slowly).

REALtime beat (to play along or practice in the actual tempo).

Lastly: I also have a full version of me playing the whole thing through (will be put online October 11) to both clarify which part comes when, how the whole tune progresses and just plainly to enjoy, I hope.

Have fun!

Cheers, Coen.

P.s. This dude is really rockin’ it major-league-breakthrough-style, eh? Deservedly so, I might add. What a voice.
