This video is about the fascinating story behind How BEETHOVEN Invented METAL MUSIC
Do you like Classical music....who's your favorite composer?
Many metalheads claim a relationship between classical music and metal. Is this just a way to legitimize music most of society despises tho?
Well, as it turns out, Ritchie Blackmore of the band Deep Purple used Beethoven's 5th Symphony to write one of the most popular guitar riffs of all time.
I'm talking about SMOKE ON THE WATER. Also known as 0-3-5. Using Bach's concept of INVERSION and RETROGRADE, Lord Blackmore worked out a new idea from Beethoven's FATE THEME.
Perhaps it was FATE that destined the relationship between Metal and Classical music muhaha.
Have you every thot about using these techniques in your own music? Who knows, you could write the next HIT TRACK!
