Pedal points are one of the most tasteful and useful music theory tricks that you can use in songwriting.

It's not a chance that they are used all the time in any style of music. If you are a songwriter you simply must know how to write a song with a pedal point in it.

But what is a pedal point, and where we can hear them?

Well, on what it is: a pedal point is simply a note held or repeated through multiple chord changes. That is, the note stays the same, the chord changes, and the contrast between these two things is very interesting and (usually) pleasing to the ear.

Of course, there is more than one kind of pedal point, but more about this below.

Where can we hear them? Well, here's a new video that shows a few examples of the different kind of pedal points and how they are used in famous songs.

And to show you that Pedal Points are really used in all styles, I made sure to pick examples from a wide variety of genres.

Once you hear the pedal point sound, you will be able to recognize it anywhere and also you will be able to use it on your songs so... watch the video and enjoy.
