What's up everyone, its Marquis here and I am excited about somethings that have been taking place lately in life. I'm glad for a New Year for starters and I know I havent been posting like I really wanted to but theres been some amazing things going on behind the scenes. I have some cool projects coming out under my artist name The Dwah Experience. Meaning new music, new website, some new merch coming through this year! I've been most excited about this new opportunity in composing music for film. I was actually approached to create music for a hard knock type series for Piscataway Varsity Basketball as well as Rutgers "The Forgotten Era" basketball where an alumni player talks about going against Michael Jordan in college at Madison Square Garden. 

I love writing lyrics and creating music but I never thought I would be doing film composition! I must say, I really love it and can see myself making an honest living off of that. But honestly, none of this would be obtainable if...

What's up everyone! I just did a recent youtube post on my channel for a 2000s pop hit by The Script. I taught how to play The Man Who Can't Be Moved. I really like this song and it's one of my favorite pop songs so I decided to give it a try and teach you how to play it. As you'll see and learn, a lot of these songs are not extremely hard to play and they have "patterns" that repeat themselves. It's very important that you take time to learn these "patterns" that you will hear in music all the time. 

In short, you can create music that everyone loves and music that you are passionate about all by ear. You have to learn some foundational principles first, learn the patterns so you can build a song, and the sky is the limit! If you're ready to do so then check out my course where I go all in on chords, passing chords, patterns, and so much more. I take you step by step on how to play piano by ear. You can check it out here

Remember music is a universal language, let me...

What's up everyone! I have a new video out on youtube dedicated to helping you get your music sounding right. I want you to use these two chords to add instant groove to your songs. It doesn't matter the genre of music, use the Minor 7th chord and the suspended chord and you will be set!

I'm super excited to be making my first blog post on my website! This one is doing a piano breakdown of a pop song by John Mayer called Shot in the Dark. I will be doing an entire series of piano breakdowns of various songs to show you that if you learn the essentials, you too can do the same with ease. The ease of hearing a song and being able to play it by ear rather quickly. 

On his new album Sob Rock, I must say that is my favorite song! I was able to learn this song within minutes and I want to share with you all, how to play this. 

Again, I'll be doing more of these videos and piano breakdowns of some of the most popular songs in a youtube series so be sure to check out my youtube channel and subscribe for more. Also like, comment, and share and let me know what other songs you would like for me to teach!
