Abstract
This project uses Negative Harmony as a basis and reference point for producing original songs in the style of instrumental jazz and funk. Negative harmony is a loose term that describes a technique of reharmonization made popular by musician Jacob Collier. While negative harmony is best understood as a reharmonization technique, I am essentially writing new songs with chord progressions that strive to replace common chord progressions with their negative harmony counterparts. I ultimately seek to make music with unconventional but viable harmonies and grow as a musician in the process.
