Some credit to the “founders” of our style (Pop-Piano), I thought, would for a change be in order again. There’s something about classic tunes.. I mean, who makes songs like these anymore nowadays? Right? A guy, a piano, a strong melody, solid harmonies played in an organic way on our beloved beast of an instrument. ... Read more
Every now and then -it’s rare, but it happens- a magician arises from the deep dark depths of music-wonderland. With so many crap pumped out and stuffed in our faces by the wealthy record companies via the main Radio, TV and Internet channels these days, I’m even happier when this happens now than ever before. ...

Easy stuff to play here when you know your chords and patterns, yet very demonstrative showing how cool an simple three-chord part can become when adding a nice basic break-up pattern. Looking for a nice piano-driven track to suit you beginner Pop-Pianists, I felt OMI’s feel-good-summer-vibin’ track “Cheerleader” -which tops this week charts- could not ... Read more

What a beast of a piano sound. Quite the cool voicing techniques in this one as well, smoothing that sweet set of chords out over this killer piano-riff intro. I figured it was time to record and post some Rihanna again! The tutorial for this song of hers is suitable for you intermediate players that ... Read more
Althought the chords in this one are quite smooth, since they’re simply laid down this song really isn’t that hard to play.
Quite suitable for beginner pianists that want to get these chords at their fingertips or aspiring singer-pianists that haven’t gotten a tight hold of rhythms & patterns yet, but do want to sing while providing themselves with nice harmonies.
Pop Piano oozing all over this track. Quite a cool one for those of you that are just starting out learning some patterns, or who are trying to get a little closer with 7’s and some other extensions. Pretty decent (doable) level for a ‘accompany yourself’ rehearsal (or even: recital!). I put yet another ‘full ... Read more
This song features a piano track (honors shared with the guitar, obviously) that once again exemplifies the capabilities of the Pop-Pianist that works his chord magic perfectly.
Now here's one that is very suited if you're just starting out with Pop-Piano. Yes, I know guys. It's been a while. Quite a while.
