OKOKOK My question is "What the fuck is the difference between a flat and a sharp?" I mean as far as I know D# is Eb, F# is Gb etc etc etc. Seeing as I've never had a lesson in music in my life and can barely even understand what thge fuck 5ths and 4ths are (and also I'm just plain mentally retarded), can someone give me a breif explanation? Why aren't all notes just (letter) or (letter)#? Oh also Pro(xy) (you guys'd probably know him too) was telling me that an F can also be called an E#. What the fuck? Please tell me he's wrong so I can go and snicker at his beard and glasses ensemble :D (j/k he's a top bloke) |

apparantly there's a difference when you're able to make that singing or playing violin or whatever, a D# is higher than a Eb |

Pro(xy) is right. As far as the flat thing goes, you can have a tune in Eb minor which is essentially the same as D# minor, they just use Eb minor because it "feels" more like E. Basically flats are complete bollocks and utterly useless. Hope this helps. |

You sandpapered your CD before you put in the player. |

Well I can tell you we have a beer in Australia called EB And it doesn't taste very good - especially flat ;-) |

no. D# is not higher then Eb. At least not in our standard tunning system. just a different name for the same pitch. flats are not complete bollox. the majority of western music is based on triad structures.... for instance, a C major chord is C, E, G. All thirds away from each other. Thats just how it is... now, lets say you want a C Minor chord... the correct spelling is C, Eb, G. Technically, C, D#, G is the same thing... but not in terms of theory and harmonic function. And yes, in Germany Bb is B, and B is H. Hence Bachs "Art Of Fugue" where he spells his name in the melody, a few bars before he dies. (he died before completing the peice, but it is still performed.) |

Yeah it's what that Zues guy said |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|

i thought he did that a lot of times i learned it should be higher though, when it's just a choir or violin it can be. anywho the tuning we have now probably kicked it out |

Yeah thanks ppl I'm slowly learneding! Zeus - ahh nice one man, knew I could count on ya. I guess that as long as they're a diff name for the same thing (and therefore I guess frequency wise the same thing) I shouldn't need to worry about it. Cheers! :) |
