Ahh, traveler… Why do some notes sing together in harmonious wonder, while others claw at our ears with tearing dissonance? This video uses both scientific diagrams and examples from video games like Undertale, Deltarune, legend of zelda, pokemon, metroid and other nintendo games and music sheets to explore the physics behind harmony and dissonance. Let's dive into the music theory and provide a music explanation of why certain chord progressions sound so pleasant, and even do some ear training to improve our ability to discern them. We'll also get into why melody is so important. Today on the Root Note Roost, I. . .Kaepo the Owl, will show you how the physics of dissonance shapes everything from scales and harmonies, to the very sound of cultures. Let's give it a hoot shall we!
