So, 
I was feeling down on the weekend. And so I took myself on a walk. And the more I walked, the more I found myself singing the times tables to music theory. 
I can't really say how I got there, but this is where we've ended up. 
Needless to say, I felt better after the walk. So, wether it was the fresh air, or the times tables, no one can say. 

In this episode, We sing
the 3 times tables to the F Major scale. 
Ascending:
3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21
Descending
21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39
The Vague chords I'm playing are:
F | Amin | Bb | C | Dmin | Bb | Amin | F |
I know. 
Pretty weird. 

Then we sing the 
4 Times tables to the G Minor Pentatonic scale.
4 , 8, 12, 16, 20, 24
28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48
Woo!

THEN
We sing the the 6 times tables to my little Mixolydian melody I made up in 6 / 8 feel, 
and the chords are 
| A | A/G |
Mixolydian is 
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, flat 7, 8
6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36
42, 48, 54, 60, 66
"I don't know what you've been told, but I'm gonna go down, My Own road. "
I cant really say when my times tables album is coming out, but if you LOVE this, you should let me know, cause right now, I feel pretty funny funny. 
Is it ha ha funny or funny funny?
Anyhoo. 
Thanks for listening, 
you're fun.

On this episode we take a little adventure to the other side of the globe. 
I take a "walk" around a far far away town and create a songwriting exercise using the Cycle of Fifths:
F, C, G, D, A, E, B
Fat Charlie Gets Drunk After Eating Blueberries
And then we think of five things about a town and write a song using repetion and relaxing!
Write using a land formation - a mountain, a river, a natural landscape as the theme. 
I wrote this song using the Cycle of Fifths 
as
the first part of the song uses the chords
F, C, G as major chords, 
and then it goes on to 
Dminor, Aminor, Eminor. As minor chords

The Words! are:
Part 1:
On Badger Road, at the Polar Expresso,
The sun is setting low, the sun is setting low. 
Part 2:
That rivers got a long way to go, if it's searching for the sea, 
that rivers got a long way to go, if it's searching for me. 

And we try to add a Drone Harmony note on the second part. 
Hope you enjoy and Lotsa love to all the folks that live at North Pole, Alaska!
Thanks for listening.

Hi How are you?!
So I begin with singing a D Major Scale over two octaves over the chords: Bmin/G and F#minor/D. 
I'm referencing a song by Tainui Richmond called "Turning it Over", though I don't sing his song. Do go check it out, it's cool. 
https://tidal.com/track/469516330/u

Then I scat over the chords: BMajor to G#Minor. 

MY NEW SONG IS OUT TODAY ON BANDCAMP - It's called NORMAL DAY. 
https://shellybrown.bandcamp.com/track/normal-day

The other folks I mention are Bobby Alu and Steve Poltz. 
Both definitely in my favourite musicians box. 

Thanks so much for listening,
