Recently there’s been an upswell of interest in sea shanties, specifically the song The Wellerman (see here: • Wellerman ). Since I’ve long planned for doing a video about pirate music, I figured now would be as good a time as any.
One important note I neglected to mention in the rhythm part of this video! If you DO decide to write in regular 4/4 (with no shuffle or swing) then I HIGHLY recommend you utilize the GALLOP. An eighth note followed by two sixteenth notes. This pattern works very fine for that oceanic rhythmic motion without relying on triple meter or swing.
If this lesson was confusing to you, try these other lessons I’ve done first:
The Minor Scale + Chords: • How to write Chords and Songs in Mino...
The Dorian Scale + Chords: • DORIAN SCALE - The 2nd mode of Major ...
Here’s a link to my favorite Korpiklaani song, Wooden Pints! • KORPIKLAANI - Wooden Pints

That was a smooth transition from the intro

It's important to remember that most sea shanties were literally work songs, and the rhythm was important for timing things like pulling on ropes etc. There's no way it couldn't have had a shuffle feel to it.

Beer-sloshing effect, my new favorite way to describe a shuffle 😅 Thanks Jake!

It takes a special kind of talent to present this in such a slick and easy to watch way. It's always a joy to see someone doing something they are made for

„A pirates first love is the c“... I‘m still giggling 🤭
115 |
finally I hear someone else calling dorian adventurous

Another theory: The shuffle suggests the chopping of the waves, or the bow of a ship pitching against them. 😉

Thanks for making this video. I can now lose the two friends I still have.

Check the description for an important note on the rhythmic possibilities! And yes, the locrian video WILL post this month- I’ve had a lot of issues with finishing it and started many projects in between, but I’m happy with the music and the track will be available on itunes/Spotify/etc. stay tuned =)

I'm writing making a sea shanty for chemistry class and while my tune is unoriginal, this really helped me understand the rhythms and instruments I should be using. Thanks!

Arrgh, The Blarney Stone brings a tear to me eye.

Gonna start composing in a scale of Arrr Dorian

Please do one on the medieval genre, both early and late medieval.

This channel is criminally underrated

"Immediately it has more of...like...a 'Beer Sloshing" effect to it... there is no better way to explain it really. You are a benefit to all of humankind. You speak very easily to the thing that we all pursue. You reignite the original joy of song and empower us to pursue it...simply because you love it all so much. I severely appreciate your work. Cheers.

When you talked about instrumentation, I'm surprised you didn't mention the accordion!
