About

Cadence Hira

Analytical music-theory and composition lessons that use video game (and related media) examples to explain advanced harmonic and rhythmic techniques. Videos focus on things like uncommon scales, axis modulation, nostalgic chord progressions, complex time signatures and metric modulation, and on how those devices produce specific atmospheres (e.g., “lava” = hot, “space” = cosmic, shop music cues).
